We put this bunk bed together yesterday for our kids and they are loving it! Its sturdy and relatively easy to put together - some parts needed two people but for the most part my husband was able to complete it on his own in a few hours. However, there is a metal bar that runs beneath the top bunk for stability and it is totally unsafe. We bought a pool noodle and covered the bar and the problem was solved, but Im surprised no one else mentioned this serious design flaw - the metal bar is not smooth and round and could easily cause a cut (as it did!) on a child getting up in the middle of the night and is still a little disoriented and not watching his head. I cant give this bed 5 stars because that bar is just not safe, but for the price this was an easy solution to make the bed safe.
I love the look of this bunk bed and its very sturdy! The directions for assembly were easy to follow. Two people working on completed the build in 2-3 hours. The directions, however, tell you to build the bottom bunk, then stack the stop and begin building the top. It would have been much easier to build the two beds separately and then stack them. The biggest problem was that one of the main posts did not have the proper drill holes. It was not the correct part. Rather than call the manufacturer and wait in the correct post, my husband drilled his own holes to make it work. It was a pain and the incorrect post also made the USB part of the bed not usable because the post should have had connectors/holes that werent there. My kids love the bed and Im happy its safe and will pull apart into two beds if they want that later.
Assembling any furniture is not easy. The bottom bunk is small, so we have our toddler there, so she doesnt have to climb or get hurt. I can sit up right under there. Top is y older daughter. It is very sturdy, and no toys or junk can go underneath it. Its a pian getting sheets on the bottom but thats because our mattress is a little thick and Im 8 months pregnant.
Assembling this product was not an easy task. I think it took almost half a day. But Im sure its a very sturdy and well made product. I am very happy to have bought a good product at this price. If I can give you one tip, you definitely need a bunker board for the parts below.
Took me and my boyfriend about 2.5 hours to put together (we were taking our time, and also skipped a page on accident at one point and had to redo some things lol) but it was relatively easy to put together. Feels sturdy and looks great. We did wish that the screws had been seperated and labeled, would have made for an easier assembly but that is only a small gripe.
Delivered on time. Very heavy box which translate to safer bed in my mind. Instructions are clear, took me 3.5 hours to put together with two additional elementary school age helpers. Too bad the quality of the product is not as expected. The dowels came in different width making them super loose or super tight in different spots. Some pieces are drilled at weird angles and some pieces are scratched already when we first open the box. I thought it was a good deal when I bought it but now its just meh.
Bought these for my 3 5 year olds. I also purchased the cloth that goes around the bottom bunk. They have so much fun playing on the slide. And in their house as they call it. Great quality. I put it together by myself (1 person) and it took about 2 full hours to finish. Definitely worth it. I purchased a lucid 6 inch mattress for the top bunk, and an 8 inch for the bottom bunk. They are perfect for what I was needing. The 6 inch is pretty firm, but I didnt want anything too thick. The 8 inch is a lot more cushioned and more comfortable in my opinion. But both are great for kids! I was worried about having to purchase extra slats for the top bunk because of the other reviews, but I did not have to. With the design and the mattress I got, there are no problems.

Do not hesitate to buy!!!
AMAZING quality, especially for the money. It is SO sturdy, it doesnt move around at all when the person on the top bunk moves!

SUPERB BUILD QUALITY!
Takes awhile to assemble but wow is it sturdy and top end material. The finish is flawless, directions were accurate and my kids love it.
My two sons love this bunk bed.

Just as advertised

Must be prepared to have two people and 4 hours for assembly.
Love the sturdiness and paint job on bed. Very heavy boxes, and very time consuming assembly. But worth it, if you are capable.
