First off, I picked this bed because its the same company that made my boyfriends Cannondale bike. And that is one sturdy bike!
So I received this a couple of weeks ago and put it together myself, but I do recommend you have another person there to hold up parts while you screw the bolts in. Even a kid of about 8 years old should be able to do that though.
Dont bother tightening anything down until you get to the ladders.
I did a very good job of putting it together, but there will be a little squeakiness if someone is moving around a lot on the top bunk. Ive had regular (non/bunk) beds that were far worse though!
The ladder did hurt my feet a little, but Im an adult. My daughter who uses the top bunk says its fine.
The top is rated for 200 lbs, but remember to figure in the weight of your mattress! I wouldnt buy this for a teen or adult to go on top. The bottom would be fine for a big person though!
Both my kids love this bed and bedtime is no longer a battle.
I got the grey one and the color is great too! Overall very satisfied with this purchase. It served my purpose perfectly.
Very good bed, kids love it.
