Relatively easy to assemble. Didnt take longer than 3/4 hours. With a toddler forcing breaks upon us!
Pay attention to:
1. Top headboard pieces for the full bed so that the peg holes are aligned on the same side so the twin can be placed in on top. We forgot to and had to untighten one side to flip. Not serious but a nuisance.
2. Side frames of the beds where the bed rests on. Make sure the twin has the same slotted ones bc there are pre/drilled holes for a cross panel with small wood pegs to be inserted in the center.
Recommend using a power drill then hand tighten screws for the last bit to secure the base planks for mattresses to sit on. Speeds things up significantly.
Overall for the price, the lower quality wood material is to be expected. Noticed some cracks in some pieces of wood as mentioned by others. When I was peeling off a sticker label, I indented the wood with my own finger. Overall, it feels sturdy for a toddler. Both parents on separate occasions (200lbs 150lbs) have climbed up to read stories. Probably wont do this all the time tho. We dont anticipate him jumping on top bunk bc his head is close to ceiling when standing and dont recommend it based on the slats. Hes 40lbs. Overall height is good, not too tall and daunting for a 4yr old to climb and mom(53) can reach top bunk from floor. We purchased a 5 inch twin mattress; it allows for good vertical space for him not to roll off the sides. Our son moves all over when sleeping!
We got the white which looks clean and less cluttered in the room.
He loves it and it allows for more space in the room especially if family can come visit. Nice finish
Reasonable price for benefit of bunks
