Im so in love with this bed! I, a small weakling, was able to assemble on my own (for the most part. Did have a child hold a piece or 2).
There was some struggle getting the screw holes to match up. And it is a bit wobbly when youre climbing in or moving around.
Do note that the top portion is only 12. I believe they recommend a 6 mattress. Also, when choosing a mattress, keep in mind that the weight limit for this bed is 300 lbs. Thats not very much, especially if you plan to have more than one person in the bed, then add in the weight of the mattress.
The bed has poles running across the mattress area. I currently have my twin mattress on it, but will probably get a bunky board once I get a full.
The bed is also really high up and just big in general. Better in a room with high ceilings. I hit my fan all the time. I love the desk and free space underneath. Love this!
We just put up the bed today. It makes the room look very spacious and it does free up a lot of floor space. One complaint I noticed right off the bat is that the support beam for the mattress is very small. I notice that whenever someone is on the bed (Im 135) the beam and slats bow a bit. They seem to spring back just fine but makes me wonder about longevity. It does wobble a bit once up and climbing up the latter. I imagine this is somewhat normal because it is in the air. Im not to concerned about that part. The ladder is and kind of hurts your feet. The ladder is also straight up and down making it a little harder on the feet and a little difficult to climb. None of these are deal breakers but if I were being picky, these are the things I would point out. I did expect it to be solid and not bow with someone on it. That is why I gave it 4 stars. For 350, I would thing it would have better support than that.
Shippingoh my lands. The first one shipped out. When the arrival date came and went, I called the shipping company because I had a message saying they tried to get ahold of me. They said that it was lost in the mail. I called and they shipped another one. I called when that bed shipped to see if I could get it sooner than the projected date only to find they lost the second bed that shipped. I called and they contacted the carrier. We agreed to wait 25 hours to see if it turned up and thankfully it did. I did get it a week before the expected arrival date, so thats a plus.
I will update my review when we have had it a while and see if anything changes. Just Buy It.
Very happy with this bed. It was so easy to put together. Instructions were cleared. My 16 yrs old daugter put it together with little help from me. Nice fit.
My 15 y/o old son purchased this with his Christmas money. He has the smallest bedroom in the house and wanted more floor space It arrived early / which created a lot of excitement when he got home from school that day! The next day, he pretty much put it together himself, with just a little help from my husband! He just loves it. It makes his room feel bigger and he likes doing his homework and playing video games in his little nook underneath the bed. My only complaint is that it seems a little unstable, but my husband assures me its sturdy. Get it!!
Just as expected, for the price but it seems somewhat wiggly!! No matter how much u tighten the screws double check everything it still shakes more than you would expect! It appears safe but had Id known I wouldve put out the extra for a wooden loft bed Very sturdy.
really great fit for the price. I pay 371 for the bed if you have to pay more than 450 I wouldnt get it. It shipped kinda bang up the packaging. But other than that beat bed. Really tall also. One of the easiest beds to put together. I I wouldnt recommend this bed for little kids at all is really for the preteen kids and a teen kids. The desk is really nice and the shevles are too. The only thing I didnt like is how the plastics and the things are kinda flimsythat hold the mattress up Thats the only knock I have about the bed Very cute.
This is an absolutely aming piece of furniture! Five stars. More on the loft later. /1 star for the ripoff price from this reseller, which will probably just ship it to you direct from Wal Mart, and pocket the 180 difference.
The exact same loft from the exact same manufacturer can be bought for almost half the price at Wal/Marts. Plus, ordering from Wal/Marts website is painless.
This loft is just aming though. The packaging alone was a work of engineering art to behold. Assembly was astonishingly easy (and / dare I say / fun) for such a large, complicated/looking piece of furniture. It took me and my kids 1.5 hours from start to finish, and most of that was unpacking. The thing is made of boxed aluminum, so it is very light to work with.
It is very sturdy too. There is a little wobble while ascending the stairs (according to my 200 lbs testing), but that is to be expected. Absolutely zero squeaking so far. The sturdiness is really aming considering how relatively small and light the shipping package was. (Its not small or light in absolute terms / 150 lbs / but considering what the thing becomes once assembled, it is pretty aming how relatively small and light the package is. Youll never get another piece of furniture this big, in a package that small and light. Heck, just a small cheap dresser made of particle board, that I bought at the same time, was heavier! In fact, the heaviest part of this by far is the composite particle board desk. Without that, this thing would be positively lightweight.)
But paying 430 is practically throwing your money away. Ive seen these lofts listed on from it seems a dozen different resellers just over a few weeks / the listings come and go. From random resellers, that I swear must be fly/by/night operations that also come and go. Probably rooted out by for scams like this cry price. If you buy it from these guys, they will probably just order it from Wal/Mart and drop ship it directly from Wal/Mart to you. And pocket a cool 180 just for filling out an order form on walmarts website. At least, that was my experience when I bought this same thing on a few weeks ago, which was fulfilled by TJS Networks. That business is (or was) a total scam. They sent the wrong loft (shipped from Wal Mart of course), then horribly bungled the return. It cost me a lot of time and aggravation. I finally just ordered the correct loft straight from wal/mart. Inexpensive and hassle/free. Love it.

Simply aming loft. Buy it at Wal Mart for 250.
