bought two of these for our lake cabin built in 1963. Ceilings are low (just over 7') and rooms are 10'x10'. We typically have 20+ people over the 4th of July and only had 3 full beds in addition to the master before. With these bunk beds we doubled our sleeping capacity to 6 full beds. BTW I installed brackets to the wall for stability. I used 1.5" pipe straps and bent to fit then anchored to the wall. My wife and i slept on top bunk and it was very stable. Our combined weight is between 340lbs - 350lbs and these worked great. i don't recommend excessive jumping around/movement at this weight but for just sleeping they were fine. Get some pipe insulation and zip tie to the steps as they are hard on the feet with out it.
Even at the low ceiling height we could sit up on the top bunk as well as the bottom. The bottom bed sits just an inch off the floor.
We used the LUCID 6 Inch Gel Infused Memory Foam Mattress - Firm Feel mattress and they were very comfortable.
Very sturdy, I am so happy with this item.
My company will love them. Not real high and that's what I wanted, will be easy to make. The screws were marked and separated, loved that.
This bed was very easy to put together. It took me 2 hrs while I watched Netflix. If I had somebody to help me and I didn't watch TV at the same time it would most likely have gone together faster. There were only 4 different kinds of screws and it came with extras. I had trouble with my 6 year old's loft from the same company. I was happy to see way less unique parets and hardware compared to the lost production bought from them. I like the fact this bunk bed is lower. If my 3 year old rolls out of the bottom bunk its not too far to the floor. My 6 year also isn't use to a ladder as her prior bed had stairs. So the lower height also eases my mind for her. The design is simple but also stylish. And we're loving the gray.
Nice bed and easy to put up... BUT the description said 72 inches height and it is only 48” high very dissapointed!!!! Because based on the dims on the website I order 12 inch mattress for the bottom bed thinking I had the height for the bottom one. I also move all my girls stuff to the master bedroom as that room had high sealings... well all my work for nothing as the bed is short and clostrofobic as most bunk beds.
