Bought 1 year ago for a 8 year old. Took about 5 hours to assemble. The unusually fragile slats the mattress laid on didnt hold up. Weve had to repair them twice using more sturdy materials. The ladder is a half inch on the part you step on, which is very uncomfortable on the feet which are often bare at bedtime. Its pretty but not nearly as practical as it appears. Chips and nicks look very bad and WILL happen. Maybe 500 for the unit isnt a ton of money for some folks, but if it seems like a pretty penny to you then you will find yourself disappointed. Hoped it would at least last a few years. Cheap/O/Gabanzo! Read some reviews stating they plan to send this to college with their kids, HA!!!! First of all disassembly would be a nightmare. Secondly, the bed is not sturdy enough to hold a teenager.
