We have two girls (4 and 6) and they LOVE this bunk bed. It took me about 2 hours to assemble (maybe 3 since they were trying to "help". A few confusing areas of which side and which way but if you've done any IKEA building, its probably a bit more user friendly. The only slight issue i have is that the bars for the ladder are very thin. It hurts my feet to use them. As well as the whole bed shakes like crazy if I try to crawl up it. But, that's rare... just for making the straightening sheets and such. We don't store anything under there, at this point, but the kids tend to get everything from snacks to clothes, to stuffed animals under there very easily so, there is a decent storage space for short items.
My girls often use it to swing on and flip on (let's be honest... who hasn't!?) and other than being concerned for them falling, I have NO FEAR about the bed itself. I feel it is very sturdy for their ages!
Great for kids!
