Perfect Loft bed for a room with 8 ft ceilings.  My daughter is 6 and it suits her perfect.  She is able to stand up without hitting her head on the ceiling.  Underneath is nice also for storage, playing and hiding.  It was fairly easy to set up with 2 people.  It is very heavy and sturdy.  I believe once my daughter out grows a loft bed we can easily take the legs off and have a normal height bed.
