My husband could not stop raving about how well made this bunk bed is. The finish is absolutely stunning and its sturdy as they get. My kids love love love their new bed.
If your on the fencejump over, this is a bed worth every penny! Works great!!
This took me about an hour to put together with help. Directions certainly could be clearer. Also, if you try to do this without a power drill best of luck but it will take forever. I found I had to loosen a large number of bolts and retighten them, so a drill saved the day. The section that shows one bolt being tightened to 100 and the other to 80 is a lie. Tighten them both to 70 and come back later to tighten them to 100 or it wont go together. Still // a very nice bed and glad we got it. Bought two great value for the money, durable.
Okay honestly I was a little skeptical at how I would like having the mattress so close to the floor in a drafty room.
Im quite impressed by this whole set up. For the most part it was easy to assemble. Once you have it set up and assembled if you ever have to move it again its easy to take a part and put back together. I love the fact that I can put my 5 year old on the top bunk if she falls asleep any where besides her bed. Because it is not high like a regular bunk bed. The bottom is super cozy for my 3 year old and doesnt feel cramped( I sometimes sleep on the bottom)
My kids play rough and the slide had held up extremely we and so has the ladder. I like that the ladder and slide can be screwed in or if you dont feel like having the slide you can just take it off.
Honestly the only cons I can think of although the initial assembly was easy, it is time consuming. Both the top and bottom would fit a extra long twin mattress better than a regular size. And i wish there were more boards on the top bunk to hold the mattress. (Can be easily fixed by adding your own).
Over all very happy with this purchase! Love it.
These were easy to assemble and the package contained all the boards/fasteners we needed! The instructions are pictograms with arrows that are easy to understand. The grandsons love their new beds! (Mattresses not included.) Perfect and Sturdy.
Bed arrived and unfortunately a few of the slats were cracked. I reached out but they would not send just the slats only option was to return the entire bed. We went and purchased slats from home depot. But its perfect for the kids small room. Not super sturdy.
I most certainly have never written a review this long but, I felt I needed to save people some time and frustration. The bed came nicely packaged (although the poor UPS driver who carried it in looked like he was going to keel over/the package was very heavy). I organized/separated all the screws and pieces and started to put it together by myself. I found it easier to put all the numbered pieces to the inside.
I did need another person to help me connect the head and foot of the bed. All was going well until, I tried to connect the metal stabilizing bar that braces the top bunk. Somehow the tough rubber that caps both the top and bottom of this bar was also obstructing the holes where you needed to put screw through. Because the rubber was so tough, I was unable to just jam a screwdriver in it to clear the hole. I finally had to get my drill. That did the trick and the holes were then clear to continue the construction of the bed. I would say it took me several hours to put this bed together but several weeks before it was ready to sleep on.
I would heartedly agree with most, that the instructions are not the best. They could have been clearer with words not just pictures.
In my excitement, I put the bed together and then thought the slats were too far apart (1st photo)!!! I went to furniture stores and looked at other bunks that did not require Bunkie boards (all the slats were much closer together than this bed). More work for me!!! I decided to purchase additional bed slats through . I disconnected all the slats which I had installed and reconfigured. I took all the slats they sent with the bed (the ones meant for the top and bottom bed) and put them all on the top bed (you have to cut the cloth pieces that connect the slats (the slats originally meant for the bottom bed) and place them in between the slats (meant for the top bed) that are already connected. The additional slats I purchased, I placed on the bottom bed. The slats from Classic Brand only had pre/hold drills in the first and last slats but the mattress is not going anywhere on the bottom bed even with the rest of individual slats not being screwed in (3rd photo). You would most likely have to drill your own holes and screw all of them into the bed if you used these on the top bunk. On the bottom though, the WORKED GREAT!
My biggest issue was my search for twin mattresses. BEWARE!!! I went to at least 8 different mattress and furniture store. There are no standard twin mattresses anymore (39x75). I took my measuring tape with me to each store and measured each twin mattress. No two were the same size and none of them were 39x75!! Who would have guessed and what is up with that!!! I broke down and bought memory foam mattresses through (although I was truly uncomfortable about purchasing a mattress which I could not try out first). These types of mattresses are the only ones that you will find that are 39X75 inches (and you do need that size for these beds). I purchased Twin Mattress, 8/inch gel infused memory foam in a box. I could not be happier (2nd photo)!
You can put the entire bed together with the hex wrenches they supply, a Phillips screwdriver and a mallet. No power tools required for assembly. It is very sturdy and with the extra slats I added, it is PERFECT. My granddaughters 7 and 3 love it!!!! The only reason I did not give it a 5 was the following:
(1) The instructions need to be clearer.
(2) I should not have had any issues with the metal stabilizing bar/which I had
In my opinion, the slats were not close enough together to provide adequate support or safety. The manufacturer should include more slats even if that increases the cost of the bed. It would have saved a me a lot of time and frustration if the correct number of slats were included and someone had warned me about standard size twin inter spring mattresses Would definitely buy again.

Cute!!
It was a pain in the ass to assemble lol But finally my Babies are sleeping in their own room! we love this bed Very sturdy.
Worth it, could be better
Overall worth the money, and the assembly is okay. The top level guard rail is not as steady as I expected. Very nice.
Worth every penny.
I would purchase all over again! My kids loved it this is good!
