I've had this bed for my kids for over two years, and it's worked really well. Even moving wasn't all that difficult, as I kept the instructions as well as paid special attention to what went where. Like any metal framed furniture, one should tighten the fasteners about a month after assembly and use, and then again every six months or sooner if you feel it needs it. If you're concerned about the use of the top bunk, be sure not to get a mattress that may be too tall. I'd keep it between four and eight inches, based on what your needs are.
The Futon portion is a little trickier. We had a well made (if thick) mattress on it originally but it was heavy and a bit of a challenge to fold back into the couch form. Now we just use it as a flat bed instead of the futon.
Onto the rated features (which I've answered some of already)
Easy to assemble: Mostly, but it does take a while. It can be done by yourself, but it's easier with some help. Also, plan to make some room for the assembly. It'll make it much easier.
Sturdiness: So far so good. I haven't had to tighten anything in several months, but I also don't convert between futon and bed very often. Additionally, we stopped using the top bunk.
Storage Capacity: If you're not using the top as a bed - quite a bit. Underneath storage is low and pretty limited, especially if you're converting it often.
I used this product for my bed in my bedroom. I liked pretty much everything about it. The way it looks, the way it feels up here as I write this review. It's pretty spacious above and below the loft. I'm 5'5" 120 pounds for reference.
I put my desk, a chair and an ottoman underneath and I absolutely love it. I rate the sturdiness a 4 because it does have some wobble. Particularly when climbing the ladder but other than that it's a really pretty sturdy. Especially for a metal bed frame. I'm shaking the hell out of my body right now and it's not really moving too much. Hmmm I think I'll change it to 5.
Storage capacity 5 because for a full (not twin) size bed, it's at a reasonable height. Additionally, I have fit a ton of stuff under the loft so I'd say it's spacious.
I have purchased a few metal bunk beds, but this is the only with with a strong construction, clear instructions, and include more pieces that are necessary. Do NOT buy a cheaper metal bunk bed elsewhere.
I ordered this to make more space in my daughter’s room and I give it 5 stars because it is perfect for her room and I was able to build this myself with just a little help at the end, when putting it up to stand. The directions were easy to follow.
Can't comment yet on the bed, as we are just putting it together. There are pieces with dents in them. Pretty lame. It was packaged well, which means that these were sent off with dents. Hello quality control...
I think it will be a nice bed when set up, and will feel solid, but this wasn't so inexpensive. There shouldn't be dents!
I was really nervous to purchase this bed because of the negative reviews. However, I am satisfied with my purchase. The bed looks great and really opened up my room. The only complaint I have is that the bed is very wobbly, I was missing 2 small washers, & my box was opened at the time of delivery. It was not a major issue bc the pieces weren’t scratched or anything. It was just not very eye appealing. Overall, I really love it.
Easy to put together, my daughter and I did it in 30 minutes, however the frame is small a queen doesn't fit and a full with pillow toppers is very very tight, can't imagine changing sheets
