A little taller than I imagined based on what other reviews said. Super easy to follow install directions but not as sturdy as I thought it’d be. 

Don’t forget to read the description. I was bummed to find the weight limit because it means we won’t be able to lay down with our son to read books together. And you do need a spring mattress. 

Otherwise it does look great! My almost 2 year old son loves to climb up and try out his big boy bed.
