Update:
Almost 1 year with this bed and I still love it. I ended up removing the side rail and ladder because the kid/size ladder cutout got annoying. Easy fix with a stepstool! The bed has held up very well, even with multiple adults sleeping in it some nights. I am moving this year and this bed is one of the few things Ill be taking with me to my new home. I added a new photo to show the bed as I have it set up now.
I am loving this bed. Im 21, living in a crowded city in a tiny apartment with a roommate. I needed a bed frame that would allow me to use my room as more than just a sleeping quarters, as I have pets, a plant obsession, Im a student, and I enjoy having friends over. I wanted one of these beds forever but I could not find one in a full size / until this came along. I was able to assemble it all by myself (would definitely recommend a helping hand though as I was in pain for 3 days after) working for about 6 hours one day and 4 hours the next. I recommend an electric screwdriver with both a philips and an allen wrench attachment. I have a 12 inch mattress and its fine because Im an adult, but children should have a thinner mattress so the guard rails will be functional. I have had a blast decorating with this bed. I have some creative storage underneath as well as some floor cushions, a beanbag chair, and my dogs bed. This bed frame is incredibly sturdy, no wobbling or squeaking even when my partner sleeps over (were about 400lb combined)! My last piece of advice is to use a twin size comforter if you dont want any overhang. Long story short, get this bed!
Fun for adults, too
