I live in a densely populated city where rents are absurd, so I can only afford to rent a bedroom in a shared apartment. The most recent room Im renting has no additional storage space in the house. So if I own it, it must go in my bedroom. I spent hours online looking for a sturdy lofted storage system that is free/standing (i.e. renter friendly). I couldnt find anything close to what I needed. Then I realized that I could use a loft bed for storage, and I ended up going with this one. It works nicely for my needs. I have my bed placed perpendicularly under the loft, and my dresser fits under the loft as wellso there is no wasted space under the loft.
The bed is sturdy enough to hold: large storage bins with out of season clothing, extra linens, extra packaged food items I cant fit into my food storage area, my bicycle, a light weight guest mattress, a couple of unassembled solid wood end tables, a scanner and a printer I dont have space to leave out when theyre not being used and various smaller light weight items I need but dont have a good place for. I id purchase a bunkie board to create a more uniform surface for the items to sit on. I also have several cat beds and a cat cave box for my kitty who loves to jump onto the loft and chill out there.
This loft works well as a storage area and has saved me alot of hassle.
Was worried it would be unstable but its actually very sturdy. My sister weighs around 180/200lbs and I weigh about 170 and we both sat on top without an issue. The ladder hurts your feet a bit but that cant really be helped. It was a little difficult putting the screws in because we had to really pull the bar lol but we got it. I would recommend it.
Bed is made out of great material. Screws are neatly organized and instructions are clear. Make sure you aline the mattress support poles correctly. I miss aligned one off and it was very hard to fix. The directions recommend putting together the head and the foot side together and then lift it up. However it was too long for my Ceiling so I had to disassemble and put it together again. It shakes a lot however it will not fall. Just have to get over it shaking. The steps like all the reviews says is very painful. This is probably the worst part of this bed. I am thinking about getting pool noddles and attaching on the steps. Overall good bed for the price!
Honestly pleased with this loft bed. Bought this bed for my daughters and they absolutely love it. I received notifications the whole time about when it would come. It was easy to track. I opted for the option for the delivery drivers to leave it in my front hallway but they were kind enough to take it all the way upstairs into my house for me. It took over an hour to put it together but it was very easy. The instructions were easy to read and all the pieces and tools were there and none of the parts were damaged. My thirteen year old daughter and I were on opposite ends of the bed standing on the ladder part and it held us both just fine. The height of it is perfect to where one of my daughters will have enough room at the top from the ceiling. We put a queen sized mattress on the bottom. It will not fit the horizontal way which is fine because we like it the other way. Definitely would recommend this.
We love it, but there are a couple of things that could be better:
1. It wobbles quite a bit
2. Theres no access from the ladder into the bed so you have to climb over the railing.
Other than that it is great!

Makes a wonderful lofted storage area for.urban renters in small spaces

Daughter loves her new loft bed
The bed is strong and sturdy. Its a little difficult to put together by your self but with another helper it pretty quick and easy.
Lasted Forever
This bed frame will hold heavy duty bouncing beauties! It lasted me and my sister 4 years! Only downside was it became really squeaky.
Good quality

Wobbly but nice
Perfect for my 9year old. Wouldnt recommend for an adult. Unless your going to anchor to the wall. Its not very sturdy.
Nice loft bed!! Only cons is shakiness and ladder.

My kids, 9yrs and 5yrs are so excited. Took us some time to assemble though but its quite easy cos the instruction is very clear n easy to follow.

Little wobbly
I had to fasten it to the wall in a few places to keep it sturdy
Great product
We love it, but there are a couple of things that could be better: 1. It wobbles quite a bit 2. Theres no access from the ladder into the bed so you have to climb over the railing. Other than that it is great!
