I wanted to wait to do this review, I bought this bunk bed in the Slate color about 2 months ago now. I have to say Im quite impressed. At first I was nervous because a lot of the reviews mentioned the wooden panels that support the mattresses easily broke, but I havent had this incident happen (knock on wood). A few pieces came w/ minor dings, but given the color of the bed it truly isnt bad at all once put together. It took me and my husband about 3 hours to do, we like to spread everything out and organize the pieces before beginning and we each built a bed and put then them together. The instructions were fine, but truthfully we gathered the hardware we needed and just looked at the pictures to assemble. All in all, I would definitely recommend getting this item, especially at such a reasonable price. The beds do come apart when it gets closer to that time for the kids wanting their own space, but for now everyone loves it.
Bang for you Buck
