Read all the reviews and decided to get this for my 4 years old who is sharing a room with his sister. A regular bunk bed would be too tall for him to go up and down by himself and his sister did not want a bunk bed, so this was definitely a happy medium. My dad put it together, didn't take longer than anything else you would have to build, in my opinion. The only reason I took off a star is because 2 of the top screws would not line up and therefore we were not able to screw them in. It's two opposite sides diagonally, so, you really can't tell support wise. We also added the bed support because the mattress we had was thicker than the recommended height, and it worked out perfect. My son loves it, all of his toys are stored under it which frees up a lot of space since space is limited. He has been co-sleeping with me and my husband since birth until we got him this bed, he'sbeen sleeping in it every since! It's been a godsend!
