We purchased this bed instead of a cheaper one because of the increased weight rating, so we can climb into this bed with our kids if needed.  We are very happy with this purchase.  It is solid wood and very well-constructed.  Assembly had some hiccups as we didn't have paper instructions for the loft part (we found them easily on the Wayfair website), and some of the hardware for the loft part was a bit tricky, but other than that it went as we planned.  We are considering purchasing other bed products from this manufacturer to adapt this one over the years.  We expect it to be a very versatile and durable bed.
