My 6 year old daughter is so happy with this bed. It was relatively easy to put together with colour Co ordinated planks and actual pictures in the instructions. Its very sturdy and doesnt creak which is what I was worried about. Its not too high but higher than your average mid sleeper so she only has to bend slightly to get under it. My 113cm 4 year old doesnt have to crouch at all. We painted it pink and white and the paint went on easily. Very happy with my purchase
