Max & Lily Twin Over Twin Low Bunk with Slide and Ladder, Wooden Bunk beds with 14” Safety Guardrail for Kids, Toddlers, Boys, Girls, Teens, Bedroom Furniture, Walnut

This bunk bed is perfect for our 4 year old! It is very nice looking and quality material! It took us 2 hours to build, is easy to assemble and our daughter loved helping! We left the bed slats off the bottom so she can use it for toys and reading books, and loves to sleep on the top bunk! The stairs are nicely slanted so they are safer to use and you can choose which side to put them on. It says it will hold 400lbs; so we are able to climb up and it doesn't make a sound. Very sturdy! It is short enough that I can reach over the top to say goodnight! I love that! The 6" thick mattress is the best option but the mattress we bought is too small to be a twin so there is a gap. That is an issue with the mattress we bought, not the bunk bed. Our daughter loves her big girl bed!!

The media could not be loaded. So let me start by saying this was a nightmare to install. It took us hoursssss, every single individual piece of wood was separated and there were 248 parts to install. However, that is only for the initial installation, if you ever want to move and take it apart you will not need to take all the parts and remove them. You’ll only really need to disconnect the two head boards, the slide, and the ladder once it’s assembled. Putting it all together for the first time is the hardest part, there were so many different types of screws and no words in the manual but I will say once you understood the way it was explaining to install the parts it became much easier to do. Installing it was not difficult but just time consuming and my husband and I both worked together to install it bc you will need two people to hold one side of the headboard up while the other screws it in place, none of it is heavy while you’re installing it but the box itself with everything inside of it weighs a couple hundred lbs so make sure you have 2 VERY strong men to help you carry and lift it into the room you’re installing it. My husband and I used absolutely all of our strength to get it up our stairs into our kids room and I’ll be honest it was a workout and we had to sit and drink some water after lol. Once it’s completed though the quality is very good and it’s not flimsy whatsoever (if you screwed the screws in securely). We did not attach the screws on the back for the slide or the ladder as we enjoyed being able to remove them when we needed to vacuum the floor and even without the screws on the back there are safety grips to hold them in place as well as the hooked attachments which keep them VERY secure in place during play and use. Ladder and slide do not wobble and after monitoring my 2 and 4 yr old for 20 minutes to ensure all manner of play is safe I can say from an overprotective mothers standpoint it has my seal of approval. My only concern is the metal rod used for stability on the under side I’d suggest the manufacturer perhaps have it where it’s concealed within another piece of wood or something to protect little ones heads. I will attach video and pictures of what I mean. I also want to add I love the sturdiness and quality of the slide, it’s strong and I had my doubts but I’ve watched my kids run up the slide and there’s no cracking or change in quality of the slide it’s strong and supports the weight of my kids. It’s also very easy to wipe down and keep clean.

First of all. This bunk actually shipped to Hawaii for $30 and that is already amazing. We have very limited choices here so we were happy to see this would ship. The UPS guy struggled a bit with the big box to get it to the garage. It is very long and heavy. Lucky for us 70 yo Grampa is in top shape and slung it on his shoulders and carried it to the back of the house. My 17 yo and I opened the box down stairs and carried pieces up and laid them out in the master according to page numbers. I am 7 months pregnant and assisted my 17 yo and we put it together pretty quick. She did most of it. Laying it out in order really helped. Definitely need two people especially the foot and headboard slats they are a bit annoying. For the mattress we used a Costco 11” mattress for the bottom. We wanted more comfort in case it needed to be a guest bed but that mattress was much to high for the top as it came up to the rails. So for the top we got a mattress in a box from Walmart that was only 6” and it worked great. Maybe we will use another for the bottom to make more space. There is a metal bar under the top bunk that knocked a few heads so we got a pool noodle and sliced it down one side and it popped on perfectly.We got the pink curtains and I didn’t like the idea of the plastic windows for safety and because it might be too hot so we carefully trimmed out the plastic windows. I tossed it in the dryer on refresh and it came out smelling good and less wrinkled. We put up the Velcro and used a staple gun to secure it to the bed then added the curtain and it is on there pretty solid even when daddy climbed in.My 5yo was so excited to hear she was getting a baby sister and she could finally have a bunk bed and she loves it. She would like to say it is easy to climb up the ladder and the “Secret Club” underneath is good for secret meetings.Overall this bed is very sturdy and was easy to build. We used a power drill set to low and that helped it go really fast. This bed shipped quickly and arrived in a few days. My advice is get the right drill bits and use a power drill set to low. Use a separate room to lay out the pieces and have a helper. We got the Clay color to match the rest of the furniture and it is very cute. This is not a wonky bed. We are quite happy with it.
