the only issue we had with assembly was some of the letters on the individual pieces were painted over so we were having a hard time figuring out what the letters of a couple pieces were. Besides that it took 1 person, with intermittent help when needed, about 3 hours to assemble. My daughter loves it and I love the extra space she now has in her really small room. The desk space is huge and with this online learning stuff going on she is able to spread her work out and still have decorations on her desk! I would totally buy again
Lets start from the beginning. Took about a week and a half from the time I ordered this bed to it being delivered. The box was hella heavy guys. Not even kidding. The spouse and I were struggling to get this up the stairs. Wound up cutting the box open and moving the pieces a few at a time. They were all intact with no damage.
The item itself is pretty good for the price we paid. I do have some issues. We bought the white version and the paint is very thin. I think it was just quickly airbrushed, and not very evenly overall. I already had an incident where the ladder got knocked as I was putting it on, and the paint scrapped clear off a part of the upper frame where it sits. I can tell touching up the paint is going to become a thing.
Also the directions are not the best. If youve ever assemble furniture, theyre on par, but perhaps slightly worse as none of the hardware is labeled and youre gonna spend half the time trying to figure out if youve got the right screws. I think I spent an hour just looking back and forth between the screws part list and the current instructions.
Overall, took me about 4 hours by myself, and my kid is ecstatic.
Bought white one for myself (I am an adult). A lot sturdier than I expected, but will be adding a piece of plywood on top of slats. You definitely need two people to assemble, at one point, we could have used 3 people. Just read directions carefully, otherwise you will get poles mixed up and have to take it apart. Happy with it!
Took awhile to assemble. Also a little squeaky when my 3 year old is getting in or out of bed. Nice bed for the price and looks great in his room. He loves it
the hardest step in assembling this bed was those smaller thin pieces of wood that slide into each end. Between myself and my stepfather, it took SO many tries to get them all to stay at once. they are not secure and wiggle. when you think you have all the slots in, you dont. Anyway, it was pretty funny and we figured it out eventually, but the wooden screws or whatever you call them are too loose for the hole and THAT was also a problem with them falling out over and over. Other than that, two thumbs up!
This bed seems sturdy and the clay color is really nice. My only complaint is that the area under the bed isnt high enough for my 12 year old son to stand up in. It works fine if hes sitting at the desk, but he cant walk under it. I realize this is our mistakethe dimensions are there, and I obviously didnt double check. But between the name of the bed being high loft and it being rated to 400 lbs., we made the mistake of assuming (yeah, yeah I know the saying) that it would be taller than it actually is. We had hoped to use this bed through his high school years, but Im thinking he will be passing it down to his younger brother in just a couple of years (or growth spurts). Kind of a bummer because he was so excitedtook a little bit of the wind out of his sails once we realized how short it was. (And hes not a tall kidjust in general.)
As an adult buying this bed for myself I was a little concerned about support. Well this bed is great and freed up tons of space in my bedroom. I live in an expensive neighborhood and space is very valuable, now I have all my synthesizers and music equipment under my bed, easily accessible! Great buy!
OMG!!! This bed is everything!! My daughter loves it!!! I bought in July 2020 and just had it assembled. In the process of moving and I cant wait to decorate underneath. It is sturdy. The gray is really pretty and I think she will enjoy this bed for some years. She is only 5. So she has a while to enjoy this loft bed. The guy that put it together only took about 1hour and a half using a drill of course. I am in love with this bed..

the slotting system

Under Bed Area is shorter than you might expect

Good for the price
Its great for the price but a few pieces did come dinged up or a bit cracked. Nothing structural only cosmetic.
Great buy!
