Love the clean Montessori look and it feels sturdy, but assembly was a bit of a hassle and the finish wasn’t perfect in a few spots. Good overall, just not flawless for the price.

The overall look and functionality of the floor bed was exactly what my wife and I were looking for and looks true to the picture on the website. However it comes completely unassembled and ours had missing essential parts and came with incorrect directions making assembly take longer than planned. The twin mattress also didn’t fit snug between the rails so we needed to purchase bed bumpers for the cracks. Not a big deal for the average flexible and handy person but could be frustrating for others.

The customer service prior to my purchase was great - answered all my questions and help me decide which crib was best. However, once it arrived there were issues. Instructions were either for the wrong sized bed - or they don't make them unique for each size. So, be aware. We were short 7 dowels (this bed has a LOT of dowels). Some of the pieces are held by a screw and and dowel. One of these pieces was not lined up correctly at all with the holes. On one side we had to just leave the dowel off. Either the dowels or the drilled holes were not consistent and we had to redrill some holes to make the dowels fit (this was with the dowels that were provided). Instructions did not include one piece - (K). Important piece and we had to remove pieces to install once we realized where that piece went - then put back together. They provided 1 extra side slat (on purpose??) - it was good - because one of the others was split. I was encouraged to order the slats that go under the bed. For a $100 I received a few pieces of wood that literally just sit on the floor for the mattress to sit on. They don't connect to the bed. If I had to do over - I would not add those for the price. This is for our granddaughter when she visits a few times a year. If I was going to use every day - I would have returned it. Edited to add: Company did reach out to me offering to help resolve any issues, however the bed is put together so nothing that we require (thanks to a very handy husband). They also offered to refund for the bottom slats.

Shipping was great, it arrived quickly and was carefully packaged. However, I was not impressed with its durability. When tightened a bit beyond hand-tightened (e.g torque set to a 9 on an electric drill), the spindles on the sides still have gaps in them. Additionally, the side of the bed that has the entrance in it is very weak when compared to the other sides. This is an inherent design challenge which I understand, but I do not expect it to hold up with kids using the bed daily. If the bed was priced closer to the $250-$300 range these would be more acceptable, but at over $500 I think the value is not there. The last thing I'll say is that there were several places on the bed where too much glue was used to set the machined screw holes and the glue had seeped into the screw hole making it impossible to drive the screws without doing some work to remove the glue.
