There are lots of knots in the wood and have been covered with wood putty. The paint is sprayed on and thin, you can see through it to the wood in some places. The rails are rough wood with splinters, and you can still get to them from the bottom bunk. The drawers do not attach. There are three wood blocks that you are supposed to drill into the bottom frame but it doesnt say exactly where and how to use them the screw it says to use isnt even long enough to get through the block. The whole thing is wobbly and we plan to find ways to reinforce some of the areas as well as cover the splinter ridden rails. Pretty disappointed .wish we could have afforded something better but this will do for now. Also there is definitely a smell in the packaging. We wiped down all the pieces prior to putting them together and cracked a window. my cat love it too,haha
Not perfect but okay for the money
