It’s not seamless, there are a lot of welding seams throughout the bed. My son complains about the steps/bars of the latter hurts his feet. Maybe the steps should have been “squared” instead of being round. He’s a slim little guy (about 53 lbs) so he doesn’t apply much pressure on his feet when walking or climbing. So that’s a con to this bunk bed. However, it gives the vibes we were looking for. So I will try to solve the ladder bars issue.
