Visually appealing & sturdy design. Though instructions leave a lot to be desired, the well-engineered design of the bed made it fairly easy to assemble even with reversing the stairs to the opposite side of the bed. Assembly took about 4 hours for the twin-over-full with 2 people.

Some staining blemishes (including fingerprints) and such but luckily we were able to adjust these pieces to the back of the bed against the wall. Very light-weight wood so I can see this getting a few dings/scuffs once the kiddos start using regularly.
