The bed was perfect for my 5 year old son. He loves it. My husband and I put it together in under 2 hours. Fairly easy assembly. The color is very nice as well. The weight limit is 400 pounds but I am unsure if it would really hold that much. Also the description said solid wood but I highly doubt that. It doesn't feel like wood and it came cracked in one of the ladder pieces. All in all I am very satisfied but for those 2 things I give it 4 stars instead of 5.
