Very Sturdy, Well Worth the PriceMatthewThis was my first ever IKEA purchase, purchased the bed for my 3 year old. At the time of purchase the bed was $300 plus the max shipping of $69. The price was higher than comparable storage bed frames from other large chains but cheaper (even with shipping) than some local mattress/bed stores name brand versions. Overall the assembly took about 4 hours by myself (30 y/o M) and there were only a few steps I thought really needed a second person (when securing some of the larger parts together) but mostly is fine to do with 1 person. The instructions were relatively easy to follow. I picked this in large part due to the partial fiberboard construction compared to all particleboard for cheaper options. I am very happy with the sturdiness of the overall bed. The drawers work perfectly, even on carpet. Only thing I would say is the bed is very tall so if purchased for a younger child you may need a step stool and a railing or bumper. Would definitely purchase again if we needed another.5
SLAKT twin bedARTHIIt fits a regular twin mattress just fine, you aren't restricted to just IKEA mattresses even though the measurements look like they're just a bit off. A bit disappointed that the drawers aren't soft-close. It looks beautiful, and I'm a big fan of the rounded corners with two rough-and-tumble boys. Time will tell how it holds up.5
Mattress is high enough offTracyMattress is high enough off the ground for kids to find it interesting and fun, but not as high as a top bunk.5
Great heightCATHYThis bed frame is great for teenagers since there are four drawers and two cubbies for storage. The drawers do not go the full width of the frame and the frame itself is quite high.5
Missing partsBrendaThe good part is it seems very sturdy, but we had to return ours because 2 boards that were supposed to be mirror images were not. The holes were drilled on the wrong side of one of them, so we couldn't build it and had to return it. Very frustrating, since it was about 6 steps in that we figured this out! They were unable to mail us replacement boards since our "local" store (an hour and a half away) had none in stock.1
It’s amazing!!JenniferOur daughters room is small and she needs the extra storage. The bed is very sturdy. We wish all our ikea dresser drawers had the middle support!5
Our middle-school aged kids followedKIMBERLYOur middle-school aged kids followed the instructions & put the bed together (a bit challenging); both are happy about the design and the drawer space the beds afford. Excellent for small bedrooms!5
Solid bedGretchen M.Love the look of this bed for my 11 year old daughter. Definitely pay attention to the directions and how to build it according to which side you want the drawers and cubbies to face. The only disappointment was we did not know we needed to purchase the slats separately so now waiting for those. Please IKEA, make sure you list what else is needed along with the bed frame.4
Was awesome but then…Kelly F.Bought this bed for my son and it was such an awesome space saver that I bought for my 3 other kids. We have now had them for over 2 years and the drawers are breaking and are hard to push in and out. Wish they would last longer!!3
Excellent bed but terrible assembly instructions!JenniferWe bought this bed as a first grown up bed for our 4 year old grand-daughter. Excellent storage and good strong bed. Over the years we have bought many Ikea products and assembled them easily, however because of the complexity of the instructions [or non instructions], it took 3 reasonably intelligent adults almost 4 hours to assemble. On the bright side, our grand-daughter loves it and said "it is beautiful".5
Great Child"s Twin BedALWe enjoyed the design of the bed/dresser combo. It was easy to build though took some time.5
Excellent bedMonicaThis bed is extremely sturdy, the drawers are very large, and it’s just the right height. Not super tall and not short. The only thing extra you need to by are the slats. I would definitely buy another one! (Assembly is a 3 because… it’s ikea. They’re always a pain haha).5
Slakt kids bedYvetteThis bed looks very nice and is Sturdy. Bought for my 8yr old but can see it lasting until her teenage years5
Kids bed- space saverCarlyHave two of this bed in one room. Saves lots of space not having to have extra dressers and night stands. The beds look very nice. They may have to stay in that room forever though, they don’t seem like they would be really hard to move.5
