Incredibly sturdy metal frame. Packaging was well thought out, with every piece cushioned with styrofoam in between. All parts sleeved with plastic to prevent rubbing or damaging each other. Came with all screws and tools necessary in the manual.
Overall process was estimated to under 4 hours, considering I did most of the initial setup by myself. Had an afternoon shift so I had my brother finish the easier and less back braking steps. So just note that if youre planning to do entire process alone, set it up opposite to the manual, or upside down on the floor. Since youre doing all the screwing by yourself, you wont have anyone to hold up the frame. Tip, place it against a wall, or have it lean against something. I had a stool and a couple of boxes to temporarily place the frame on top. Rest of the process is quite easy once you have the basic frame of the bed on all fours.
After the set up, I immediately experimented in populating the shelving with a few items on just the first two which immediately freed some space from our closet. Had our computer desk set up underneath with some space next to the shelves for another small drawer. Having the shelves double the use as the ladder going up the bed itself, was just brilliant. Havent had any issues so far on durability and its overall functionality. But if I had to nitpick I wish theyd include some kind of soft cover on the steps, as its quite hard on your feet, and you will experience those occasional creaks whenever you fumble and move around while you sleep.
Overall I really am glad I made the purchase. Got this at a small discount and the only thing Ive regretted was hesitating when this was at its lowest price at the time. Been in the market for a decently priced loft bed, that can utilize a small room by having that space underneath the bed. Im really glad I found this one, as it sets itself apart from other loft beds with its unique shelving and ladder combination. Also, the good thing about this bed is that it isnt restricted with a built-in desk. So you can make use of that space more by getting yourself a desk you may already own. Having an L-shaped desk underneath would make a good workplace set-up or play area for kids and young adults alike.
Fantastic Loft bed!
