Inexpensive loft solution, but I have the following suggestions:
1) The manufacturer should switch from a wood slide material to something else; the slide is thin and as such makes the characteristic thunder noise (not TOO loudly) of wood being warped. Kids don't seem to care though.
2) Change the design to allow the slide to be placed on either side of the unit.
Purchased this bed for our 4 year old's birthday. So glad we did! He absolutely loves it. Was easy for my husband and I to set up. Our son loves going down the slide and playing under the bed. Perfect bed for a big boy room.
My husband and I bought this bed for our 3 year old son and he absolutely LOVES it! He gets so excited in the mornings when he wakes up and gets to slide down from the bed. I was very skeptical about ordering this product! I was worried that the opening for the slide would be big enough he could fall while he was sleeping, but we haven't had a problem and I don't think that could happen. Then I read a review that said the mattress has to be under 6 feet... we had already ordered his mattress online and it is very hard to find a good quality mattress that is 6 feet long. We decided to take the chance since the description says it fits a standard size twin and I am so glad we did! The reviewer who wrote that is totally FALSE! We bought a 38W X 75L X 6 1/2 mattress and it fits great! I was also worried about the slide making a lot of noise... but that's not the case with ours! I can hear if my son goes down the slide but it's nothing loud or annoying. I'm glad I hear a little something when he goes down the slide that way I know if he's up playing instead of sleeping! My CONS for this bed is that some edges seem a little sharp... nothing major but if someone rubs it a certain way it could scratch them. And it's not that sturdy... when he's crawling around and being rough the bed shakes some and I can't keep furniture right up next to it because of this. No big deal though.. it is still an awesome bed!
Overall we couldn't have bought a better bed for our son and would recommend this to anyone!
This was so nice to put together. Every piece was labeled even the screws. The instructions were clear and understandable. All pieces lined up correctly and was a smooth process. It took a little over an hour for my husband and I to put this together. Feels very sturdy and of good matieral. It came nicely packaged. There were no extra screws or anything so make sure your little one isn't being a big helper and loses any. The slide side rail is like a cheese grater and it did feel a little rough but I kept running my hand over it and it never cut me so I think it will be fine. Overall I would purchase again and I do recommend buying this. My little girl just loves it!
Good overall. The slide sticks out 57.5 from the bed. The instructions say to use a mattress no more than 6 tall - our existing twin was too tall, had to get another. Slide is rated to 150 lbs, bed to 200 lbs. You can put a second mattress on the floor underneath it, but there's little head room, can't sit up under there. My 5 year old son loves it. Plays around on the slide much more than I thought he would - it's noisy, because it's wood. Only unexpected drawback it that the height of the bed makes it difficult (for the grownup) for cosy bedtime story reading. A bedside chair is a little low. Still, we are happy with it.
Really cute bed. The slide comes out farther than you might think. My husband had to weld the slide to a different part of the bed to get it to fit in the room and the safety guard just broke the other day... not even a year later. BUT, the kids play on it a lot, so it is not that surprising. Great bed for the price.
Nice bed, my 3 year old absolutely loves it. I'm not a big fan of the way the slats go together, but they seem sturdy enough for kids. My only complaint is that I wish they would have built it so you could swap the slid and ladder locations to allow you to customize it just a bit. You cannot do this, there are screw holes for the slide and knotches for the ladder that don't allow them to be swapped. It would have been soooo easy to do and made this bed perfect for us. Not a huge deal, but would have been nice.

Good bed especially for the price.

Four Stars
Very satisfied, slide is sturdy and so is the bed. Grandson just loves it.
Love the bed
Love the bed. I do wish it were a little bit taller. It is pretty low to the ground. But love the slide!

Nice Children's Bed
Nice bed, simple assembly. Would be significantly improved if the slide and ladder sections were interchangeable.
Almost perfect...
