Merlot Twin Over Full Bunk with Trundle and 5 Drawer Chest

 (3 customer reviews)

Overall the product rates average for me.....

The trundle is a certain NO - It moves and shakes due to the 2 wheels it has for rolling in and out....manufacturer needs to find a way to lock the wheels so that the trundle is stable when being used for sleeping !

Assembly was not too easy but with 2 people and some additional tools takes about 3 hours. If the instructions were a bit more clearer with write ups supporting the diagrams, we could have knocked it off sooner I think.

The horizontal slats to hold the mattress is quite flimsy and does feel like it may break quite easily.....with Kids, jumping around on beds is inevitable. You are not around them 24/7 to monitor them and if they do jump around it feels like it can cave in. Manufacturer clearly states - No horsing around on the beds - but try telling naughty boys that ! For now it is okay we have it for just under a month and the boys are happy with their bed.

This bunk bed is very sturdy and looks great. Much better quality than similarly priced beds in stores. The only thing not mentioned in the description is that the twin trundle will only accommodate an 8.5 inch matress. Not a big deal, but standard pillow top matresses nowadays run 9-12", so measure your mattress first. Top bunk is more forgiving- I have a 9.5 inch mattress on top and there is still enough rail above it for safety. Ladder secures to top and bottom so it won't lift off with vigorous climbing. Makes changing the full mattress a bit tougher, but it results in a very solid feeling ladder setup.

Nice crib at the right price, easy to assemble, it took around an hour to complete the assembly. Chest was shipped fully assembled. I am using it for more than a month,my son likes it.
