Love this bed. We bought 2 different loft beds of , and I would have to say even though this one was a little more money, it is definitely obvious that the little extra price was worth it. More sturdy and an opening for her to get up through making getting in ad out so much easier. Better directions.
Bought this for my 9 year old. He loves it. We made him a hideout underneath so he thinks it is super cool but this thing squeaks like there is no tomorrow. We can hear every move he makes. We made sure everything was tight, we even used WD40 to see if that helped, but still squeaks with every move.
UPDATE We sold the bed on facebook to to someone for 1/4 of what we paid due to the awful squeaking. Would not recommend! Overall good.
6 months in I had to disassemble and reassemble the loft and ended up with 3 stripped bolts. I used only the hex key included both times Ive assembled the loft. This item is good! Satisfied.
Cheap and space saving! Great for under storage and fort making . Bed is a little shaky but the fun and extra space makes up for it. Easy to assemble. Very sturdy.
As stated. But after all together and tightens up with a mattress still has a slight wobble works for me but might be an issue with lg person or kids jumping around Buy it again.
Youll need a rubber mallet to smack things into place. We had all the pieces needed and it eventually went together okay, but you WILL need a rubber mallet to get some of the parts fully together. Follow the directions, dont tighten anything until the very end, and as long as the pieces go where they ought to youll be okay.
Downsidesbesides the assembly? Its a little TOO tall, and at 52 and 58 were going to have to use a stepladder to c hange the sheets. If you arent tall and your kid isnt old enough to climb up and help change sheets, its a bad choice. Were going to have to move it away from the wall just so we can get sheets on. Ladder steps are narrow for an adult but work just fine for our five/year/old and we dont have much in the way of complaints except for the putting/it/together problems and the difficulty in changing sheets. This isnt minor/annoyance level of difficulty, its holy/hell/Im/going/to/have/to/crawl/up/there levels of difficulty. Changing a bed with low clearance while youre ON it is no fun at all.
If we had to do this over again, wed get one about 6 inches shorter or with wider spacing between slats so we could change it with less headache. If you arent tall and dont have a rubber mallet handy, Id skip this for another bed. Bless your hearts.
The quality of this bed is dependent on whether or not the holes to screw in all the hex fittings are drilled. Mine has some that were angled and made it extremely difficult to put together. I read all the reviews and research before I made this purchase so I was aware of the issues. I will definitely be securing this bed to the wall. I have re/tightened the screws as well. I highly recommend that, perhaps regularly. Well made and packaged.

You WILL need a rubber mallet, and if you arent tall, changing this is a REAL c hallenge.

Definitely a two person job
