Nice bed for a ten year old. Note sure it will stand up for him when he his 16 but it good for now. The one, but huge complaint is that the ladder rungs hurt your feet. Not discomfort, but pain.
My biggest qualm about this product is the thickness of the step bars. It being too thin or narrow hurts bare feet when climbing up the bed. I suggest buying and adding foam of some sort thats used for pipes for cushioning. Just make sure that the foams are reinforced well since they can be torn up due to wear and tear. Since the step bars are thin or narrow, the weight that pushes on the foam onto the step bars somehow slices it up. So I guess it can be addressed with wrapping a duct tape around the whole length of the step bar over the foam.
Very good value / just one problem / I bought this bed for my 18 and 20 year old daughters who share a room when both are home. They are very sturdy and hold standard twin bed mattresses. The space between the beds is great. Both of my daughters can sit up in their respective bunks. We put it together in about 3 hours.
The issue is with the ladder. The holes do not line up in any way to attach the ladder. We took it apart and put it back together in every way we could and there was no way to make the ladder attach. We ended up buying a separate ladder that just hooks on.
Not like any bunk beds I have ever seen. The bottom bunk is barely off the ground the top bunk is very high. My husband is 8ft and was able to sit on the bottom bunk and his head wasnt even close to the top bunk. Putting it together was a huge pain. All the parts are labeled and all that was great until you had to pop in about 100 little plastic pieces that dont want to fit. We have only had the beds a day. They are sleeping on them for the first time right now so I dont know how they are going to hold up just yet. Doesnt seem like they will last long though.
WARNING: I started to assemble this bed today and it was not making sense. The parts did not match the image in the directions. I called the manufacturer, the first person I spoke with said maybe they were mislabeled and I should try to switch the parts. Then I found another part that did not match. I called again. The second person I spoke with said, Oh, sorry. The directions and parts have changed, you received the old directions. REALLY She then emailed me a PDF of the correct directions. They did make sense, but saying that, there is no way anyone could do this in an hour. Also, the slats are a pain to insert and the plastic tabs that hold them in place are very difficult to insert. I put them in boiling water to soften them up. This helped a LOT! It is finally assembled and does seem pretty sturdy. Most bunk beds have an opening. This bed requires you to lift your legs over the bars. Again, dont even begin to assemble unless you are certain you have the correct directions. Good Luck. (P.S. When I called the manufacturer I actually got a live person on the phone with the first ring / aming!!)

its better than nothing
this bed is huge took three hours it is very wiggly when you climb on it if you climb with no shose the bars hurt
shorter than expected
its shorter than we thought it would be. if youre 5 feet or more, you cant fit under it. it still is a cool looking bed.
Strange little bed
