I picked this thing up because my kid kept rolling out of his old bed like he was training for a stunt show. I needed something low so he would not face plant every night. This one sits right on the floor, which made me chill out a bit. It also looked simple enough for a regular dad like me to put together without calling my brother in law. He always makes fun of my tool skills.
Once I got it set up, I liked that the frame felt pretty solid. The little fence around it keeps my kid from escaping like a ninja at 3 AM. The door part is kinda cute and he likes opening and closing it for no reason at all. The wood looks clean and not flashy which is fine by me. Only thing is it took a bit longer to build than I expected.
My son seems way happier with this setup. He climbs in and out by himself and acts like it is his tiny house. I like that I do not need a box spring or anything extra. It keeps the mattress steady and low. The size is good too since he has room to roll around without falling out.
If I have to point out some downsides, the slats felt a little thin but still hold up so far. Also the fence could be a bit taller but it still works. Other than that, it is a solid bed for a kid who moves a lot at night. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done. Plus it saved me from having to sleep on the floor next to him anymore.
