Very cute twin bed.  We haven’t decided if we want the ladder added because our boys seem to run and jump into the bed.  Since the bed is metal, I can see them banging their shins on it.  The bed took about 3 hours to put together by myself.  If I had help, it probably would’ve taken less time.  Overall, it’s a really cute bed especially for a child transitioning from a crib to a twin bed.
