I love the bed that we just purchased for my ten year old. It seems very sturdy but we haven’t tested it yet when his cousins come over so we’ll see. If I have anything bad to say I would say that I wish the instructions were a little clearer, there was a point when we stood and for about ten minutes trying to figure out what to do next. Also, when we were screwing in the ladder, the holes didn’t exactly line up so it’s a little crooked but manageable.
