My daughter wanted a lofted bed for her 7th bday and I wanted to find one that utilized the most space. I found this one that was raised higher than most loft beds. We were super excited and couldn't wait to put it together.
First off the directions were all in pictures and at times, difficult to comprehend. Second, the little pieces (dowels) that go in the holes to connect the pieces of wood together DID NOT FIT. The directions stated that it needed to be hammered in, however those holes that were drilled in to the wood were too big so the pieces wouldn't stay in place when trying to put it together. Third, let's talk about the stairs. The slats in the stairs are also super unsafe as the dowels wouldn't fit properly in there as well. I also felt that the flimsiness of the stairs were scary when climbing bc even when tightening them down, the stairs will still move depending on the person climbing.
The whole ENTIRE BED IS WOBBLY. Doesn't matter how many people it took to assemble, disassemble, and reassemble. It still came out SUPER WOBBLY. We were extremely disappointed in this product, especially the amount of money we spent. I wish I could give it zero stars.
I will admit that I did not attempt to contact seller or in regards to this trouble. The reason for that is because we had already done damage trying to get it to work the first time putting it together and all the time we spent taking it down and redoing it, caused more damage. It wasn't worth the fight and the hassle. We managed to make it work for that time being.
This bed is not safe for your children. If you do your research, you will see that there are actually several reviews on this bed being a bust. Just do yourself and your kids a favor and look for another product.
DON'T BUY. NOT SAFE!
