This bed was perfect for my 5 year old son. Its a tad bit shorter the I had assumed how ever it seem to be the perfect hight for him. The lay out is wonderful , it gives him plenty of room to store toys in the section right under the bed frame and still enough room in the tent area to play. Just to give you an idea my husband, son , 8 month old daughter and i had plenty of room (with out the toys in the back section being added). The slide is incredible strong and i love the railings that keep your child on the side as her/she goes down. I also was happy about the fact that you can place the latter on the left or right end of the bed and the slide and ten on the front.
HOWEVER..... When the product was delivered at my house the box was in HORRIBLE(!!!!) condition!! The box it self was BARLEY hanging together by tape and there were scratches on the bed post as well as the top of the slide was bent and the back security rail was warped do to being bent. I was VERY disappointed in the shipping care, had i not been on a time crunch (and my husband being able to some what bend the pieces "back") i would have sent it back and DEMANDED a new bunk bed! My best advice is order way a head of when you need to product so you can have the option of returning if the same thing happens to you.
This bed says that kids outgrow it around 8yrs old. I would agree with this.(10yrs would be the age they would no longer want the slide) We got ours when my son was about 2 1/2yrs old. We made a plywood platform covered with green carpet and put on the top and put a bunkie style matress in the tent. My son played on the platform top deck and slept inside the tent. I'm not a tall person and I could stand in front of the bed and reach my young son easily. I could also crawl inside the tent and put my son to bed with lots of room. We also had a toy box inside the tent. We would move the mattress from the top to the bottom depending on where he wanted it.The tent just ties on to the bed and can be removed it the child no longer wants the tent. I think we got a lot of good use out of the bed and was able to pass it to someone else. We used the bed for 6 years and it lasted well. It was not only a bed but also a playset for us.

I had it delivered to the local warehouse and picked it up using my Tahoe, having to put the seats down, but it fit fine. Not difficult to assemble, and I'm a single mom. It was time consuming, but nothing more than I expected an assembly project to take. It's very sturdy, well built and my son, who's 5 but turning 6 (43 lbs), absolutely loves it. It hides his rubbermaid toy box, a Cars toy bin and he has a bean bag with a light under for a place to lounge. A little awkward for getting him in and out of bed when he's sleeping, but that's cuz I'm short. He loves using the slide to get out of bed. I use the ladder and get in bed with him to read books each night and can use the slide to get out, and I'm 120lbs. Overall, a great purchase!

This bed went together fairly easily. Could've been easier had the hardware been labled-there were drawings in the instructions but no labling on the hardware itself. The bed is well constructed and plenty sturdy for little guys, don't think I ought to do any sliding though :). My son is almost three and he LOVES it. There is lots of space under the bed and in the tent for playing. We have a kid's chair and a bunch of toys underneath and he still has room for playing. Pretty cool!

Vanity looks great, very easy too put together. Only negative was the first time it was shipped to me a piece of wood underneath one of the cabinets was split and broken. I returned the item, and it was replaced quickly with an undamaged vanity.
