My husband was able to assemble this by himself in about an hour/hour and a half. It wobbles a tiny bit (I get up there with her) but it is a bed, they are naturally top heavy, this one is great at this price point. I am not concerned about the safety of it. My daughter is thrilled with it, she put her Barbie dream house underneath but someday it will be a desk. She loves that the ladder can be moved depending on what she is playing/doing in her room. Simple and does the job.
The frame came packaged really well! All the pieces were clearly marked with stickers, the hardware was in a labled box, and everything matched the instruction manual perfectly. The diagrams and instructions were well written and easy to follow. You could probably put the frame together with the allen wrench provided, but we used our own because the bolts were very tight when screwed into the wood (which is one of the reasons the frame is so sturdy!). You will also need a Phillips head screwdriver, and a rubber mallet might be helpful for some of the dowels.
We put it together with 2 adults in a little over an hour. I think 1 adult could assemble it if they were handy. Our biggest problem was keeping it from sliding around on the carpet when we were first pushing pieces together. The glossy finish on the white frame is very slick!
We were pleasantly surprised how sturdy it feels, and how nice it looks! The whole thing is made from wood, not MDF or hollow core boards. The glossy white finish should be easy to wipe down for cleaning.
We think our 7yo will be able to use it for many years. recommend!
We liked that this was relatively easy to put together for 2 people, looks more expensive than it was. The instructions were clear. We advise having an Allen wrench on a power tool to make this much faster / dont use the tool in the kit unless you have no other option. Also, I would have left the box open on the porch for a day or 2 to off/gas the paint fumes before bringing it in the house. I did not let my daughter sleep on it the first night we assembled it because the smell was strong. She liked it so much that she really wanted to just sleep in the room with the window open to a 20 degree night. Built strong.
Overall, a good bed. The design is a little more sturdy than another bed that we bought a here a couple years ago. The instructions were good and it went together relatively easily. Definitely a 2 person job. Only drawbacks were 2 mislabeled pieces and a long thin piece that was cracked (fixed with glue.) I would purchase again. Worth it! She loves it.
I purchased this bed for my pre/teen for Christmas. I chose this one because it looked sturdy and the price was right. I am pleasantly surprised about the quality of the wood. A little work to put together but looks great! We can move the ladder from one side to the other as well. We put some string lights under the bed and now she has a blast hanging in her room with her friends. Happy with this bed!! I Love it.
Middle school daughter loves this bed! She likes the privacy from younger sister. Very space saving. She has her private desk area underneath. Wouldnt nrecommend to younger age group. Good quality for price. Make sure mattress no more is 6 inches thick because of railing. Perfect.
Wonderful product. I was worried it might be too tall for my daughters room with only having 8 foot ceilings, or that there wouldnt be enough space under it. She has room to sit up in the bed and her computer desk, chair, and monitors fit nicely under it. She does have to sit in the chair before go By under it as the clearance is only about 4ft 8 inches but its perfect once seated. Very sturdy. Love it!

Sturdy wood , need to air it out a day or two

Will not fit a thick mattress.
A little shaky, but great for our 7 year old daughter. Good.
Great bunk bed for the price
Great bunk bed, buts I wish the wood was a bit more stiff. Kids love it easy to put together.
Good quality for price

Works well in a small room.
Bigger than expected. Happy with it. It is as described. Easy assembly.
Sturdy, functional, overall nice piece of furniture
