South Shore Furniture, Popular Collection, Complete Loft Bed, Natural Maple

If you read this I hope it is not too late and you have not ordered this piece of garbage! I bought the twin sized toddler bed of this manufacturer, which comes with a ladder, over the Target online store. Let me tell you- there is a very good reason why you cannot buy this piece of furniture at your local Target store- but only online! Simply put- you would never consider buying it when you see it in person. The quality is absolutely disappointing. The cheapest fiber board as a core paired with a thin fake wood grain-foil. At this price point I expected at least to see a real wood veneer, especially as you can buy real solid wood beds for the same money at Meijers, Ikea, etc.! When my order arrived, the ladder was broken right out of the box. The fact that there was no indication of physical stress to the box or any of the other components within the box at all, makes me believe that it left the manufacturer in the broken condition. Needless to say, a quality so cheap and bad that...Read more

We own this set and I am so surprised to read the other review about this being a cheap flimsy set. The loft bed is so sturdy that my husband (who is Not so skinny anymore!) two children, and I can all get up on top and not worry in the least about it collapsing. The wood is very heavy and does not peel off! All I can figure is that my set was made a few years back and perhaps what is being offered now is of lesser quality.

I gave 4 stars and not 5 because the top bed is quite difficult to get the fitted sheet onto. If your child is a bit older and can do it himself it wouldn't be a problem, but I was sleeping a potty training 3 year old up there and it was no fun for me to have to climb up to change that out (I was pregnant at the time).

I do reccommend this bed set, and I think you'll be happy with it :)

I love this bed collection! We have it now for a few months and of course it is not hardwood, but it is sturdy enough, even my 200lb+ husband climbs on top with our son and it holds up well. I guess how well you put it together, my husband put it together very carefully with a lot of strength to make sure all the screws were tight. It is a very practical set, the desk with the light is great, the drawers are great for the homework, and kids crayons, book shelves hold so many books and even the cabinet on the side allows for more storage. The room looks actually bigger than with two separate beds. My only complaint is that the bottom of the top bed is not well finished. You lay down on the bottom bed and you stare at the unfinished wood... it is very annoying, I am thinking about doing something to cover it up... Another thing that wasn't done to the full potential is the bottom bed - it is built like an empty box with mattress on top, I wish there was an opening to put in extra...Read more
