I ordered two of these (grey and white) for a 6 and 8 year old. They love them. I built them both in about 5 hours total over two days. You don’t need two people though it would help and save some time. I’d recommend using your own Allen key set to torque down the bolts as tight as possible. The provided key will slip and destroy your hand. The bed is solid once fully assembled. It does have a slight side to side wobble (about an inch) as with most 5+ foot loft beds out there under 500. I’d recommend to anyone looking to save and still provide a sturdy structure that will last. Add Pool noodles to cushion the steps and don’t cry about no entry at the top. My kids get over it easily with no help and its safer imo. Even with an 8” mattress, plenty of support bar to hold the kids in at night.
Good value and quality
