The bed is super cute! Fairly sturdy, however, I took off one star because the slats are spaced pretty far apart so the mattress we have up top (IKEA foam mattress) sinks down between them when weight is put on it. I’ve ordered a “bunkie board” that has slats going in the opposite direction, so I think that will solve the problem. The slide is a big hit, but trying to think of a solution for a cushion at the bottom. Overall a great bed at a good price!

We bought this as a Christmas Gift for our 3 year old daughter. It was the best purchase we made all year. Even though we downsized her bed from a queen to a twin, she has not complained once. The bed was easy to assemble, and only took my husband about 1.5-2 hours to put together. We did receive a cracked piece of wood, but had tremendous customer service and received a replacement within 2 days.

We have not had any issues with the slide being too straight. Both our kids have enjoyed having an indoor slide in the house.

There are lots of other loft with slides out there (we did a ridiculous amount of research), and while this one is a little more pricey than the others, it’s value is worth it in gold. I love that the slide can go on either side of the bed, and that the hardware matches the white wood. In addition, there is a high weight limit on this bed, so we are still able to lay with our kiddo and read her bedtime stories without being afraid of falling through.

The ONLY minute downside is that we had to go and purchase hardy board to go under the mattress so that the blankets wouldn’t go between the slats.

 My son grew out of his toddler bed, so we went looking for a loft for him. With COVID-19, lots of places were closed or out of stock on good lofts. So, I spent many hours researching the best loft and eventually spent almost $500 on this one because of the stairs! I do NOT recommend this loft. I would like to return this but after spending 3 hours on assembling it, we have no choice but to keep it. Basically, difficult and frustratiing to assemble. When you finish, the product is disappointing! I'm 8 months pregnant and was able to wobble it with little effort.

CONS:
- it took 3 guys 3 hours to assemble this
- screws were NOT labeled
- parts were mislabeled
- instructions were ALL in drawing, so you had to "guess" where each part went and which screw to use
- VERY VERY VERY wobbly (see my video) and it squeaks
- thin legs that hold the entire loft up
- thin slats (I read this in the review, so I bought a bunkie board).

PROS:
NONE!

Easy to put together and very sturdy .
Only negative thing is the slide is to straight.
My 4 year old son went down twice and both times he got hurt hitting hard at the bottom.
Same thing with my 6 year old grandson.
The slide was the main reason I bought this bed. Now I wish I would have saved my money..
Any suggestions on making the slide safe and fun for the kiddos?
Disappointed mommy..☹️

My wife and I were looking for a loft bed to make some more play space in my 3.5yr old son's bedroom. It's a fairly small room and we wanted more room for him to spread out his toys and things on the floor. He loves the new bed and spends quite a bit of time up on the bed part with his books as he does down below playing. We didn't think of how much he would like spending time in the bed part.

Assembly was fairly straight forward and the instructions are complete. The worst part of assembly is putting together the long side of the upper rails. Since there aren't separate fasteners, they have to be slid in at the same time as the end panels go on. Definitely requires two people.

When assembled as delivered, the bed is fairly sturdy. It's not too tall, so it would probably be livable. I decided to make a couple of improvements for its long-term use and peace of mind. The first was that I added 6 more slats to the part that supports the mattress. We are using a 5" thick foam mattress from IKEA and it just seemed too soft in places. With three 1x3's eight feet long, I cut six more slats at 39" and screwed them down just like the others. The next improvement was to use some self-tapping sheet metal screws to join the slats to the steel beam down the center. This made a huge difference in the rigidity of the bed. Finally, I added two anti-tip furniture straps to tie it to the wall.

Overall, I would say that this was a winner. I was hesitant to buy something instead of building it myself, but I think that in this case it was a success. With a couple of inexpensive improvements it became exactly what we needed.

Update - middle step broke - whole bed is completely useless now. Super disappointed.

Bed a bit wobbly when you are on the top. Not super thrilled about that.

This is great for my two grandsons who are 3 and 5. We bought them the loft bed version with the stairs, not the ladder, and put a full-sized foam mattress on the floor underneath, like a twin-full bunk bed. We chose this loft bed because it is low so if one of the kids jumps or rolls out, they don’t have far to fall and the full bed underneath adds about a foot more cushion to break a fall.

That being said, with a 10” twin foam mattress on top, there is still plenty of railing extending high enough to prevent accidental rolling out of bed, so that’s another plus.

The stairs are safe for even our youngest grandson to climb on - he is just over 1.

The only downside is that one of the parts of the stair railing arrived broken and we had to use wood glue to assemble it. Overall, including the wood glue, it took about three hours for two people to assemble. Even with the broken part, the price was right and the finished product is everything we hoped it would be. Great looking and very sturdy.
