I received this earlier than expected which was wonderful. Unfortunately it did have two large dents in the mesh on the shelf that goes alongside the bed. Not a huge deal, I’m sure my son would put them there on his own eventually. I read the reviews about the stairs and have to agree with all of the negatives written. It’s a nightmare to make the bed! With a traditional loft bed you have at least two sides you can get to, however, with this one there is only one corner that’s even somewhat easy to get to. I love the storage in a smaller space but the rest is just okay.
