I have a smallish room which makes storage a bit of an issue. I also have a low ceiling, which ruled out a loft/style bed, though that would otherwise have been the ideal solution.
This bed was the perfect compromise, being tall enough for real storage underneath yet not so tall that I cant sit up in the bed above.
My only issue was that the rails are meant to completely surround the bed, making it safe for children, obviously.
Not being a child that sort of security wasnt high on my list of requirements, but I DID need a bed that was easy to get out of in the morning.
As it happened, the railing doesnt have to be installed in the front/ the frame is well/enough constructed that the railing isnt integral to the structure. As such, I left off the front pieces of the railing, giving me an open side that I can swing my legs over to drop out of bed in the morning.
The only problem with that solution was the ladder/ one side of the ladder mounted to the corner post, great so far, but the other side mounted to the side of the bed and was as tall as the height of the now non/existent railing, making it a serious threat to my well/being as I climbed out of bed; I now had a single piece of wood sticking up alongside my bed for my legs to catch on as I swung them over the side. Not good.
Fortunately, some quick work with a hacksaw (not nearly as scary or ugly as it may sound) and I had cut that side of the ladder down to the level of the frame, not interfering with its stability in the least.
If I want to finish the job right Ill go find myself some coffee/colored wood stain to put on the part I cut away so it matches the rest of the bed, but otherwise I am very happy with both the bed and the solution I found for my particular issue.
I mention this in particular because I wasnt completely certain when I ordered the bed that I could leave off the railings if necessary, but it turns out you can, indeed.
Product arrived in two days as promised. It was not bad to assemble. Two hours with a drill as stated by others. Directions were good. Screws were well organized. Assembly without a drill would probably Take longer. Also two people made it better. I plan to buy something to put under each leg to ease the movement and shaking but its not enough to complain about. Typical bunk bed movement.
This bed seems very sturdy. My daughter loves it, the slide is really fun! 4 stars for assembly cause one hole was drilled in the wrong place entirely, leaving a visible hole and requiring another hole to be drilled properly. All the pieces were in great shape, no chips or scuffs. I found the same bed on other websites for 100 more, but Im glad I bought it here.
I really like it. Im just so happy that my almost 3 year old son loves it. You get what you paid the material is not great but not bad. Only for kids I think with the weight of an adult it will break we tried and the wood that holds the mattress starts to bend so be careful with that. Overall it looks cute and your kid is going to love it.
This a great bed. I bought it for my three year old in the full size so that she can keep it for years to come. The under part is great for storing her millions of toys. The only reason that I gave four stars is because we received one board cracked and one board with two dents in it. We would love to have the boards replaced but Im unsure how difficult that might be. Otherwise, its a great bed and my daughter loves it!

Be Leary
Product did NOT come with 2 bags of pieces and parts of the paint was chipped. Cute product but wouldnt buy again, what a headache!
Great bed but came with some cosmetic damage
