I think this was the only bed I could find that didn’t have reviews that mentioned compromised stability over time. I have good faith in this one over any Masonite or fake wood loft beds.
It takes a while to put together by yourself. About 4 hours for me since I’m slow and kept re-reading and eyeballing the directions. It’s absolutely better with another person. Eventually I did need help.
After everything was put together, I can tell you it feels very secure. It wobbles with movement, but not to any concerning degree. It’s a reasonable amount for a bed high off the ground. There’s no squeaking either, I made sure things were screwed tight. I didn’t find it necessary, but they include brackets to secure this to the wall if you’d like. If it helps any I’m 5’6 and 230LBs and I feel safe.
I read reviews saying to pad the ladder steps, so I used cut pool noodles, and that does wonders.
I think the only thing that sucks is climbing the ladder. Like I said I’m 230 and it stays put when I hop up, but I think an angled ladder would do well if you ain’t got the strength to pull yourself to the top.
All in all I’m very happy with this bed, and find it comfortable to work under. It’s absolutely saving me some space in my room.
It’s good
