Long time to assemble. But worth the time. I was hesitant at first...I mean, its hard to know when to take the toddlers out of their little toddler beds and put them into big boy beds. This was actually a perfect compromise. Its twin sized, so not overly large that they have problems sleeping with so much space. It also isnt as high as a regular bunk bed. I cant tell you how much more at ease that makes me. Im able to still lift my sons into the top bunk when they end up falling asleep cuddling me. The bottom area is large enough for me to sit with them on a floor pad and read a book before bed or have the boys stretch out their car mat and play with their beep beeps.
The actually assembly went really quick once all the pieces were laid out. The instructions were easy to read and the images matched up to what was supposed to be done. All the parts where there and everything fit without breaking or bending. The bed itself is pretty sturdy, even when one of the boys jumped off of it already, of course. The twin mattress fits well, no huge gaps or not fitting at all. And the ladder is very firmly screwed in place. No movement at all when the little monkeys climb up and down.
Very pleased with size and sturdiness
