Okay so we took on two new babies and needed to change our current household from 3 children in a 4 bedroom to 5 children in a 4 bedroom. My two eldest boys were bunked up and my oldest son being 16 and quite tall needed a bed that could accommadate him comfortably, however my second oldest son needed something more his size which was drastically smaller.
We looked for a twin over full bunk bed set and found a very reasonably priced one through and very reluctantly purchased it (bugdetary decision). Comparable beds were alot more money and I did want a framed bed because of the style of their room and I felt it would last longer and be more durable than a wooden on. I did not want a bed that would squeak and squawk with every movement or a thrown together contraption that would only last a year.
Well once it arrived in a very narrow but long box I knew I was in for it.piece after piece.piece H, screw 8, slat Mon and on.oh I will tell you I had to step away a few times.it took me almost 4 hours to complete the construction of this bed.
But mainly because I am not the putter/together in our home and I was excited about the project and wanted to do it alone. But if you take it slowly and pay attention to the very detailed and easy/to/read instrutions you will be fine.
After we finished we were very happy with the end result as are my sons. It is a very nice looking bed but more importantly, well made and very sturdy. Given the amount of work it took to put it together I know that bed is very secure, safe and from what my sons have said since it has been up.comfortable. They are so happy with it and I am very happy I purchased it! it is very pretty.
Worth The Money.But time consuming
