The white is definitly NOT s stark white... which is disappointing. Otherwise it was super easy to set up (we also have the pine elise bunk bed for our boys - so we didnt even have to look at the directions). The kids love it!

This bed is wonderful. It is well worth the money. It came in 3boxs so it fit in my van and were easy to carry in the house and up stairs. We had a little trouble putting it together but it was me and my sister with 5 kids running around. If your short put the slats on the top bunk before you put on the side rails. This is a GREAT buy. I am thinking of buying one for my 2 boys next.

GOOD BUNKS FOR THE BUCK,

After searching on Craigslist for some good sturdy wood bunks someone told me that they had bought a good set from Walmart. (Yes, I was surprised and skeptical!) After reading all the reviews, I decided to take the gamble. I'm glad I did. The bunks arrived well packed and were SIMPLE to put together with or without directions. I actually left the entire project for my 13 year old daughter and her friend. They had no trouble (granted, they are smart girls:) and even had fun with the project. To add my two cents to the white vs. cream debate...no they are not "pure as the driven snow" white. They are not beige/cream either. I am not a matchy-matchy person and like an eclectric room, so it was not a big issue to me. If you are a "must match my white Pottery Barn accesssories" kind of person, they may not work for you. I think the color is very nice. The bunks are fairly sturdy, though I have some doubts about the two facing boards lasting throughout the years. They are not thin, but not rock solid (like some of our other stained wood late 70's models are boys sleep on) and these bunks take a lot of "hopping" on the bottom bunk to spring to the top. Of course, they are not so heavy to lug around like the older style either. Anyhow, I plan to report back in a 6-12 months and let you know how they have held up. I think these are a good value for the money. I also noticed that the Target web-site has the EXACT bunk set (picture is identical) for over $150 more. Mmmmm. I have never bought a pc. of furniture from Walmart but won't be so scared to in the future. :)

This is for my 5 year old and 2 year old daughters. My husband and I put this bunk bed together in about 2 hours, very easy to assemble, much easier with a cordless drill though. The bed is off-white, which is perfect for my girls' room because their other furniture is off-white. Very happy with our purchase!

This is the perfect bunk bed! It is exactly what I was looking for. Excellent quality, especially for the money. It was so easy the put together, even my 5 year old and 3 year old helped. The color is slighly off white but not noticable next to other white furniture. It shipped from site to store, arrived early and in perfect condition. I definitely recommend this bed. My girls love it!

Review 6 for Elise Bunk Bed, Soft White
SOLID, STURDY BED but NOT TRUE WHITE!!,
02/14/2010
By
2lilprincesses, Dallas Texas
Overall Rating:
4
out of 5
First thing we noticed when we got the boxes home was that the color stated HUSK WHITE. After immediately opening the headboard/footboard box, it was clear that they were definitely not a true white.... more of a yellow- based white. More of an off-white. My daughter's furniture is bright white so up against their dresser it IS noticeable, however, once we got them put together, the color difference is not that bad. I am VERY particular about this sort of thing and i think it ended up blending okay. The beds were easy to put together (took my husband only about 45 minutes) and they seem very well-made and very sturdy. I was very pleased with the overall quality. A few things I was wondering when ordering the beds were: Do they require a box spring? no, and I wouldnt recommend using one. Especially on the top matress. We were planning to use our daughter's bunkie board from her previous bed (9the flatter box spring used with beds that have a trundle underneath) and even that made the top mattress way too high. This may be a non-issue if your child that sleeps on the top bunk is older, but my daughter is only 5 and I wasn't comfortable having the mattress that close to the rail... almost level with it. We also tried to use the bunkie board on the bottom bed as well and it too made the mattress sit too high so there was hardly any space to sit up on that bed without hitting their heads on the bottom of the top bunk. We ended up using the mattress only on both bunks - and its still just as comfy. Can you put a trundle underneath? No. we tried to place my daughter's trundle under the bottom bunk and the bed isn't high enough to give the mattress clearance to pull in and out. This was a big bummer =( A few other side notes - things I didnt think about when I purchased the bunk beds... You can't use a dust ruffle on either bunk. Because of the ladder you can't get a dust ruffle to hang properly. Making the top bunk is a big pain and you have to keep it tucked in (on the sides and under the bed) when its made so that the quilt/sheets/comforter don't hang down. This is not going to be easy on me to make everday, esp considering Im 6 mos pregnant!
Overall, the quality and sturdiness outweighs the cons. I think its a good bed and we are happy with our purchase. And our daughter's LOVE it!
Im only giving it 4 stars b/c the color factor. I think the maufacturer should indicate on the description the color descrepancy.

My husband and I bought this bed for our 3 year old twin girls. We decided to keep them as twin beds until they were ready for the bunk beds. We made a huge deal of their new "big girl beds." When it was time to tuck our girls into their new beds; my husband (who only weighs 215 pounds) sat on the bed to kiss his daughter goodnight and the rail on the bottom of the bed that connects the head to the foot board broke right in half! We had a crying child and a mother who was ready to explode with anger. The beds are beautiful; but obviously not built very sturdy. We are waiting to hear from customer service about getting a replacement part.

I purchased this bunk bed after looking at many reviews for many different bunk beds. We are very happy with this purchase! The beds are very attractive and my daughters love them. I assembled them alone in less than 2 hours. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. The bed was VERY sturdy. The only suggestion I have is to make sure you put the mattress on the bottom bunk BEFORE you put in the top slats, or BEFORE the ladder is placed on. That was just my own lack of thinking though :) I love the fact that it is so easy to separate the beds when the time comes to do that. Great product at an EXCELLENT incomparable price!

It did arrive 10 days earlier.It is a beautiful WHITE bed, but one of the headboards arrived cracked. I am returning it right away to the local store since there is no phone to call , just email...
....that was 15mins ago....Walmart customer service called right away after the email...which makes me feel good about this... they requested a new part from the manufacturer and gave me a direct number to them... Called the number and the customer service rep. asked me to open all the boxes see what is missing or deffective and they will ship everything in 7-14 days.
Hopefully everything is going to be OK. Bed is beautiful ,but because of this and two unopened boxes to go this purchase is getting 4 stars from me...

We had the bunk beds delivered to the store. They arrived much quicker than expected. My husband put them together in about 45 minutes. He had a friend help for about 10 minutes to put the bottom section together. There were a few holes that weren't drilled deep enough so my husband had to drill them deeper. We love them!! Our daughters are 2 and almost 4 and they are perfect. They are sturdy, cute, and a bit lower than many bunk beds. My girls LOVE their new beds. I looked at a ton of bunk beds before we decided to go with these and I am VERY happy with the beds. I read the comment about them not being completely white but you won't notice unless you have white walls. We have tan walls and they look white, not off white.

I've been searching for beds for my kids who are 2 and 4. My daughter kept sneaking out of her toddler bed into my sons bed. So I figured I'd get them beds that will last till they move out. I got the beds home and while my husband was playing the guitar with his friend I put the bed together in less then 2 hours. Make sure you have a electric drill, it helped! I did not put the bunk beds together, I put them side by side but their was enough room to store the boxes under the beds for when I want to turn them into bunkbeds. I am completely satisfied with this purchase and my kids love them. I even got my husband excited for a big purchase. You will not regret this buy!

These bunk beds are the perfect combination of value, elegance, and sturdiness.
They are easy to assemble. One person could do it by themselves.
The color is a slight off white and the room between the bottom bunk and the top bunk is smaller than other bunk beds, but for my two daughters who are aged 7 and 2 it is perfect.
Because of the small distance between the bunks, they are not too tall which means I do not have to climb to the top bunk to make beds or tuck my daughter in.
The parts could be labeled which would have made assembly even more easier, but I give this product a very good review.

Overall, this bunk bed is suprisingly sturdy and will be great for my daughter. It's not as tall as some bunk beds, but we don't mind that. (didn't want it to go to the ceiling or anything anyways!) Directions are straightforward, and it was really easy to put together. I would recommend using a power drill with an "allen wrench" attachment. I couldn't imagine having to twist all the screws & bolts with the allen key. My one MAJOR complaint, which could deter some from buying this bed.... when I opened & unpacked the last box which contained the head & footboards, I realized that one of the headboards was cracked on a piece. I didn't think that it would be able to be fixed well enough for safety reasons. There is no # to call the manufacturer directly for replacement parts. You have to call walmart, and all that they can do is replace the whole bed. I wasn't about to attempt to pack everything back into the boxes and return it to the store and wait on the replacement. Luckily my husband could fix the piece well enough that it will work for us. So that's really the only down side of this purchase. There doesn't seem to be any service after the fact. If something breaks, I guess we'll just have to fix it ourself.

A pleasant surprise,

Overall Rating:

out of 5
This bed is very well thought out, easy to put together and extremely sturdy. I am not one to usually purchase large items like this without seeing them because if they do not work out it is a big hassle, but the price was right and Walmart beds were getting good reviews so I did it. I am so happy we did! One of my favorite features is the height. I love that I can still tuck my daughter on the top bunk in at night because it is slightly shorter than others we looked at. It is also safer that way. This leaves less head room for the bottom bunk sleeper but it does not bother us. The wooden slats are exposed underneath for the bottom sleeper to see which may be standard on all bunk beds but to prevent splinters and just for fun we stapled a pretty fabric up and it looks great. We liked the fact that in the future we can separate the beds and have two identical beds. My reason that I gave four stars on expectations was for three reasons which may be small but I think it is good FYI information; First because it is not a pure white bed. It is slightly off white. I know it sounds picky but my girls room is accented with pure white and it would have been nice. Now that it is all set up I don't notice it. Second reason was the ladder steps are thin and they hurt my feet going up. They do not bother my seven year old and she is the one who uses it most so I just wear shoes when changing the sheets. Third was my husbands thought which was that he would have liked to see pop in covers over the screw heads because they are exposed. I personally did not notice this but again good info. To be completely honest, don't get caught up on my little FYI facts unless they really bother you, I had no idea we could buy a bed at this price (a weekly grocery bill) a be this happy. These beds will be in our home for years and will probably go off with the girls. They are solid, attractive and we are very happy.
