Im a returner, if its not perfect I wont keep it. I was skeptical but after extensive research this was the one.  I didnt like the bottom bed being on the floor with no lift from the ground, that had me thinking it would possibly look funny and feel funny putting my boy to bed and also how much room my son would have hitting the above bed. With that said, not the case with either concerns. It looks great! And well enough space in between. I am extremely happy. Everytime I walk in and past my kids room I smile, seriously. They are super comfortable and lets face it kids are rough and picky themselves. They have even approved of this bed!  The latter is sturdy my daughter is 4 and gets off and on the top even in the middle of the night (no night light)! Incredible, just what I was worried about is not a worry at all anymore. Totally not a waste of money and I picture this thing holding up for some years.
