This bed went together with minimal issue. It is quite sturdy for the price! I had already read the reviews saying the ladder rungs were painful for their kids. To be honest I kind of dismissed them. But they were right, especially since you are getting in and out of bed with no shoes on. I cut some pool noodles to cover them and it helped. It just doesnt look as nice with rainbow colored foam on the rungs. I actually contemplating building a wooden ladder and hanging it on the outside of the bed to replace them essentially.
Great bed, sturdy, but painful ladder rungs.
