This bed is by far my son's favorite item in his room. The bed is not that difficult to assemble, however it is time consuming and takes a while if your doing it by yourself. The height on this item was an issue for us and I had to remove my sons ceiling fan in order to install the bed. Once assembled the space underneath it is nice and allows him to put his bean bag under the bed for video games and movies. I have read other comments about the rungs hurting the feet of some, however my son had never made that complaint. I went ahead and bought some pipe insulation and wrapped the rungs and went over them with electrical tape to secure them in place. I also purchased a clip fan and clipped it to the foot of the bed for my son on those warm evenings and its working well. The box that it is delivered in is bulky and heavy so be prepared for that. My son loves being able to use the bed to help make forts in his room when his friends come over and also loved being high up while he is asleep. I feel that compared to other models being sold at other stored like Ikea and Wal-Mart, this bed is very nice and of better quality.
As mentioned my only piece of advice is to have at least one other person available to assist with assembly if possible. Other than that the quality and the price are very good and I am certain your child will love the new addition to their room.
My son loves his new bed!
