I have 2 boys and one is about 165lbs (14yrs) and the other is barely 75lbs hes (12). I needed something my kids can grow into and I was terrified at buying metal over wood. I read the reviews over and over so I took a chance and glad I did. The bottom bunk is large enough that my son who is now 5'7 can sit up without touching the top bunk. I'm in awe at how sturdy this bed is. I put the bed together in about 3 hours, didn't mess up the ladder and it looks better than the posted picture. Read through the directions a few times before you start and read the reviews for extra help and it will all be worth it. I was looking for a trendy bed that would last more than a year and I found it! My youngest loves the top bunk and my oldest hasnt complained yet about the bottom and (he complains about everything). I purchased the signature sleep 8 inch bed which leaves just enough space for the guard rails to catch my son for some reason he decides to roll or slip out of bed. The ladder is cool and strong enough for an adult to climb. Freakin love our new bunk beds!!
Forgot to mention there are these gray square things that numb your thumb. After 40 minutes and inserting 3 I gave up. The way the top bed is made, I didnt think it was needed. To date I see no reason why the thumb killers are useful..
Dreamed about a bunk bed like this!!!
