This bed is sturdy and a nice bright white color, which is exactly what I was looking for, for my daughters room.  I have boy  girl twins and I purchased a grey one for my 6 year old sons room. My twins love that they can build forts, play, read under their beds and climb up into the beds.  I would have given this bed 5 stars but the instructions were a bit confusing as a few parts were labeled wrong ( but fairly easy to figure out), and the screws for the ladder did not fit easily into their designated holes.  But I managed.  Also I donât love that the silver screws are visible.  I wish the manufacturer provided screw covers.  However I would recommend this bed.
