Wobbly but good for a ten year old at this price point
As an adult I look for price and space. My ten year old loves this bed. Yea it wobbles and I'll have to tighten the screws eventually as a result but we can both sit under it comfortably, in the now adorable sheepskin floored reading nook. As an avid reader and Lego master builder he will probably disappear and emerge sometime late in his teens. Took three hours for my partner in crime and I to assemble it and hey the kid got to say he built his own bed. Some of the Fits were tight.. like grab another adult to hold it while I piloted the screws tight but overall everything fit and was included. I appreciate it's not a solid welded bed.. it's light I can swing it around to make the bed and I'm getting great practice with the tight hospital corners to make it look really presentable. The bars to hold the mattress are a bit...less.... than I expected but I know other DIY stores carry wooden mattress slats if these somehow are bent through shenanigans. And we have a lot of shenanigans...
Overall I should have bought this bed for my little man a couple years ago so he could really enjoy it for longer. Seems like a crazy good deal and for the price point: it would be a great value for a bit younger kid who can handle the ins and outs of the high sided guard rails . Kid loves it.. I can assemble it with little help and overall I would say if your looking for a reasonable quality bed for a 5 to slender 18 yr old this is probably the bed your looking for. I'll review it again if it doesn't hold up. Paired it with a 6 inch memory foam mattress and I have to say.. almost wish I was a touch on the lighter side of 150 so I could try it.. Not sure it would hold up to those shenanigans though.
