Have to pay attwntion to those predrilled holes. I had to take apart 3 times partly bc of that. But overall the bed is super sturdy. If I had paid closer attention it would have gone quicker for me. Took me little over 4 hours.
Overall seems very sturdy.. i agree with some other reveiews.. 8 inch mattress seems to be the key. Anything bigger top or bottom doesn't fit well. (Bottom you'll bump your head really easy and top will be just below the railing by a few cm
Great sturdy bunk beds but very difficult to put together. Thankfully my husband is handy and was able to adjust the pieces where things didnt line up or fit. It took us 5hrs to put it together completely.
Definitely took two people to put together and a third to lift upper bunk. . . but it is great! For the price, the quality of wood is amazing. Only change would be a longer Allen key so could use a tool to help with turning but extremely pleased with this purchase.
After receiving it, we opened it up and sorted all the parts and found out we were missing 40% of the hardware. We triple checked. There were also no instructions on how to put together. Not happy with this purchase
This bunk bed is super sturdy! It definitely surpassed all our expectations for the price. It took us a couple of hours to get it together, but my boys(almost 2 and 5.5)are in love!
Good quality for the price. Seems very sturdy. Came undamaged with all the pieces and directions. Putting it together was a monumental task. Its like a giant puzzle with a million pieces. You will be building every single part of this, you have to build all the headboards and footboards. There are two different size slats and if you make a mistake you will have to take it apart and start over. I read and reread the directions and triple checked my parts before beginning and I still messed up and had to take my first headboard apart. Once I got one headboard together though the going was much easier. Don't use wood glue, I thought I'd do my own thing and use wood glue and it was just super messy. When putting the slats into the headboards you put this piece of styrofoam in first to help the slat stay in place. This made no sense to me and I didn't want to do it. You have to do it. I ended up putting the little styrofoam piece all the way over to one side and pushing the slat into place by squishing it over with the slat. I'm not sure if that is how you are supposed to do it as the directions offered no advice on this step. When you get to this step it will make sense. Another sort of mistake I made was using a cordless drill instead of the allen wrench. My husband was out of town so I built this beast on my own. I found a drill bit that worked but wasn't exactly perfect. I ended up drilling a few in too tight and stripping a few that are a bit stuck. We will likely never be able to take this thing apart, nor would I want to. SO much work. This bed is a great budget option and will get the job done but boy do I wish I could have gone to a furniture store and bought a $1,200 bunk bed that came pre made lol.
I love this bed. Although it took us some time to put this together as it was only my husband and I, it just looked awesome. I was skeptical about it being sturdy once put together. All my worries were put to rest once we put the top bunk up. The top bunk doesn't move at all when shook. My kids were so excited.
My kids love the bunk beds and could not wait to try them out. Overall, assembly instructions were straightforward and easy. Definitely easier with two people and two sets of tools.
We found that the spacing of the slats on the bottom bunk are a bit wide. Will like need to get some extra slats and/or plywood to make it more sturdy for the bottom mattress.
My chief complaint is the experience we had with the seller. The first box arrived on the last day of the promised shipment window. The second box arrived 5 days later (almost a month after our purchase date). Box 2 looked like it had been shipped, opened, re-shipped again. Scratches on the wood, 1-2 split sections that gave us a few splinters during assembly, and a missing step for the ladder. Given my experience communicating with the seller (UnbeatableSale) to even receive the second box, I am not optimistic that they will provide the missing piece.
If you buy this bunk bed, you and your kids will likely love it -- just make sure that the seller is itself or the company has a better customer service than UnbeatableSale.

Very Difficult to Assemble

BETTER than ever expect!
Definitely took two people to put together and a third to lift upper bunk. . . but it is great! For the price, the quality of wood is amazing. Only change would be a longer Allen key so could use a tool to help with turning but extremely pleased with this purchase.
Did not include all the hardware
After receiving it, we opened it up and sorted all the parts and found out we were missing 40% of the hardware. We triple checked. There were also no instructions on how to put together. Not happy with this purchase
Just buy it! You won't regrets it I promise!!!
This bunk bed is super sturdy! It definitely surpassed all our expectations for the price. It took us a couple of hours to get it together, but my boys(almost 2 and 5.5)are in love!
Should be cheaper
Both beds came with all the pieces however both of the beds had large cracks in the wood that could make bed and putting together more difficult.
Its sturdy, its affordable, and its so much work to put together.

Great value, sturdy
My boy loves the beds
Perfect Kids Bed
