I love the look of this bed, but I dont think it will hold up very well. It is entirely MDF and feels flimsy. The bookshelf and chest of drawers seem sturdy enough, but I doubt that the bed will last more than 4-5 years. We were hoping that this bed would last until our now 3 year old daughter is a teenager, but that seems unlikely. I am afraid to stand on the ladder to change her sheets for fear of breaking it, which means my husband has to change it since he is tall enough to not need to stand on it. At least it was relatively low in price in comparison to many of the beds we looked at.
