The slats arent solid, you have a free long ones, but the wood is pressed/ glued together. There are a lot of short/broken pieces in-between the top and bottom pieces. The paint is soft and scratches easily. Some pieces were already cracked before i put the bed together. The picture is made to make it look taller than it is. I kick the middle leg everytime i walk up to the bed.
We bought two for me and my mother. I am very pleased with the purchase. Just a heads up that you must have a drill at home to be able to screw in the floor of this bed (where you would place your mattress on). There are no pre-made holes on the sides and you must do that yourself, using a drill. Other than that, great bed, sturdy, and great wood color.
Assembly instructions werent great, there were no actual instructions only images, but we managed to get the bed together. I bought the bed for my teenage son. Since the bed has a solid wood frame it comes with a higher weight limit so he can use the bed for years to come. I needed something with a trundle since he has friends over all the time. The trundle rolls our very easily!
Put this bed together today and it looks great! Throw out the instructions and go on your own. Youll be happier and less frustrated. After reading reviews, we put both sets of slats on the main bed (we arent planning to use the trundle bed right away). There are only 7 slats for each bed. Pottery Barn beds have 18! We couldnt risk a saggy mattress. One leg was short so we had to put some furniture sliders under it so it didnt sit on top of the trundle side. Hopefully itll hold up ok. Ill come back and update if I have any issues.
Bed comes in one long box, and is super heavy. Assembly instructions are minimal, they are drawings only and are not to scale so its difficult sometimes to determine which bolt they are referring to. Once assembled, bed is great! My 2 year old loves it. Bed is sturdy. My husband and I have both slept on it with our toddler (separately) and it has held up nice. For the captains bed, you want to make sure that you dont get a mattress thats too tall, as it wont close. The captains/trundle bed is on wheels and if on hardwood, it will easily roll out from under if your toddler steps on it. But simple solution, place a rug down and its great. I appreciate details like the bolts are painted to match the blue wood. Overall, its a great bed for the price and has the ability to grow with my toddler for a number of years, just be cautious about how annoying assembly is.
For the price, you cant beat this. Product came free of damage, fast shipping and was pretty simple to assemble (took us roughly 1 hour). Sturdy when put together, I was surprised. Perfect for our daughters first big girl bed!
Great quality and very sturdy! The instructions are a little off but nothing you cant figure out and fix. I used a 10 inch matress on top and an 8in for the bottom and it fits perfectly.

Installation has no written instructions, only drawings and drawings are NOT to scale.
