Delighted with the bunk. LOVE the extra height in this bunk making sitting in the bottom bunk much less claustrophobic than typical. After reading the other reviews,  we were mentally prepared for the time consuming building of the bunks.  IT's not difficult at all BUT...the instructions were very very poorly crafted and missing accuracy points ( i.e.. pictures didn't demonstrate holes or didn't notify you that the side up needed to be that with the holes). The poor instructions resulted in us having to re-do 3 sections so...it took us more than 3 hours but..again, we were mentally prepared for it. One piece was not made correctly and we called and they said another piece would be sent to us ( nice customer service group) The piece hasn't arrived yet we just came out of the blizzard so perhaps that is the delay?  Modern simplistic and very happy with end result and...price point.
