The only reason I gave this bed one star is so I could write the review. I didn’t have any issues building this bed and I built it alone. My issue is that it just isn’t solid enough. My daughter got on to her new bed and said it doesn’t feel safe and I have to agree. When I climbed up it felt shaky and I immediately regretted my purchase. I should’ve gone with the loft bed from Ikea as I originally intended. Now I’m £200 down and as I’ve already built it I can’t return it so off to the tip I go. This has been one expensive mistake!!!!!
