The top bunk rail could be higher to make it safer for little ones that toss and turn at night. We got 9.5 mattresses. That leaves less than a 5 rail on the top bunk. I didnt think to check that till afterwards. I prob wouldve looked for thinner mattresses. It also takes away from the space between the beds. The lower person doesnt have much room for sitting up. Just takes some getting used to. My 3 yo banged her head really bad the first time in there .maybe she learned but I do wish it had more space. Theres a ton of space under the bed that could have been utilized since theres no trundle or storage, although you can do your own storage but I see it as a waist of space when theyre so close together. Theres a few marks on the wood that are flawed like damaged spots (not enough to return the whole thing). All that and my husband had to take it apart and redo a couple things because of the directions lacking info.
It is solid and it is cheaper than most bunks so its still a good purchase.
Solid bunk bed. Some flaws, but good price.
