We are so thrilled with this bed! So glad I read the reviews and spent the extra dollars on this model. This is excellent quality, the wood is extremely solid and I have no stability concerns whatsoever.  I love that it is rated to 400 pounds, so that I can climb up on the top bunk with my son with no fear of being unsafe. The box that it arrived in is shockingly small I found the instructions quite easy to follow and put the whole thing together by myself in just over two hours, I only needed help with lifting the top bunk onto the bottom bunk. We will be using this bed for years to come.  So pleased!￼￼￼
