This bed is an excellent value.   I ordered the white finish.  I love the amount of space allowed for the bottom bunk.  There is a lot of head room compared to the previous bunk beds I have owned.  It does take awhile to assemble the bed, as there are many parts with the metal construction.  However, it was worth the effort, and it was not difficult to assemble.  Additionally, it is fairly solid and has very minimal movement when one of the kids is climbing the ladder.
