All parts came labeled and bolts pack as well as tools needed to assemble. Nothing missing and if you follow all directions its very simple to put together (3hrs by myself). Mine does not shake nor is it wobbly like Ive read in reviews, theres no squeaking like others have complained in previous reviews and its great quality. I highly recommend if your in the market.
What people dont understand is this is a metal bed and obviously it will not be as sturdy as having a wood loft bed. Second, because it only has a top layer of a bed, yes again it will rock when children go up or down. However, I have had no issues and have a queen bed under. Great space saver and instructions were very simple. Yes, you do need more than one person to do this job. Im happy I purchased it and it was of great quality in my eyes. Will highly recommend for a space saver !
Well lets just start off shall we Im a captain, not an engineer, but I spent a lot of time learning all principles of my ship. Ive built my fair share of IKEA engines, so Im no spring chicken. I decided to add this bed as quarters are getting a little small. Make sure to schedule yourself at least three hours to put together if you are doing it alone. Mostly
Because each individual piece is wrapped in plastic! Also make sure your neighbors are out. Each piece chimes like a giant wind chime every time it strikes something. Now, for putting it togetherThe screws are difficult to work into the metal. Using a drill wound up stripping the first few screws. The manufacturer could have made these thumb screws, but instead opted for rounded top screws, so make sure you are deft of hand. The Allen wrenches provided are also slightly too long, so if youre thinking youll be able to simply twist them around until the screw is tight, youve got another thing coming! Finally after several hours, I was able to get this up by myself. Overall, this was very difficult in the physical aspect of things. If the pieces were a little smarter, I think it could have gone together quickly.
Lets talk storage. I got this initially because Im headed back to the academy for further study. My quarters were too small to accommodate a second desk space, and this makes it possible.
Now lets talk who should buy this. If you are an adult purchasing for a child, this bed comes with brackets to attach to the wall. The bed DOES wiggle slightly when getting into it, even pressed flush against the wall. I have opted not to bracket, as I may change my mind where I want the bed later. I dont think it would tip over though, so no real need to bracket other than holding the bed perfectly still. If youre an adult buying this for small spaces, I would recommend headboard bumpers for the uh, shore leave activities. Again, this bed doesnt sit flush with the wall, so it moves around a bit. So far, nothing is squeaky.
Im also around 52 and my head runs directly into the bunk. I have to crouch down a little, but when sitting in the bed I dont slam my head into the ceiling. A good compromise, I think.
When thinking about this bed, also consider your level of how much you care about a perfectly made bed! Having those tight corners looks great, but this bed and its railing are very tight on a full mattress. I would not expect a child to be able to make this bed, and even more so trying to tuck the corners in every morning would be painful on your fingers.
Ive had the bed for a day now, and while Im not in love with it, I would say this bed is a great solution for small spaces. Suggestions to make it better: add wingnut screws for easier turning, dont wrap everything in plastic, second back support bar to keep bed from wiggling, and think of something else to add to the bed other than a bracket to secure it to keep from wiggling.
Happy building!
Excellent bed freeze up a lot of space for kid playing. The bed is pretty sturdy my son is 12 years old 58 and seems to work great for him however the only issue and as other reviewers have put is declining ladder seems to hurt the bottom of your feet piping insulation cut to fit around the ladder seems to fix the problem.
Very much impressed with this bed frame. My son absolutely loves it and i love that the sides are completely closed up so i dont have to worry about him rolling out in the middle of the night, even with a thick mattress there is still plenty of railing to keep him safe! He seings on the bottom of it like a monkey and its still holding up great. I definitely recommend!

Great bed for the price
Very sturdy and easy to put together
Not sturdy enough
Its okay, but it wobbles. It isnt sturdy enough in my opinion. If you move around then you dont feel as safe.
Soo much floor space!
