Review 1 for Dorel - Full Metal Loft Bed, Black
Perfect for Teen's Room
,11/16/2012

We bought this loft bed after our 15 yr. old son begged us for one. He had a queen sized bed set in his room that left enough space in his room to move around, but with him being a teenage boy, not enough space for him and his friends to chill and hang out and keep his room clutter free.
The loft bed has offered way more useable space in his room and even provided a chill out area under the bed. The bed is VERY TALL, I’m 5'6 1/2 and have to slightly bend my head to stand underneath it, so be sure to do your height measurements to include the space of a ceiling fan if you have one as well.
We will be rearranging the location of his bed because it is too close to his ceiling fan.
Overall, we are very happy about the purchase and are kicking ourselves for not buying this instead of the queen bed set for him a few years ago.
Note: Just like the other reviewers, it does wobble, but is very sturdy and we see no need right now to anchor it to the wall.
BTW, our son is 6’0 and 185 pounds. The loft bed is very sturdy. My husband put it together by himslef and he did have to tweak a few things, however it came together very nicely.

Review 2 for Dorel - Full Metal Loft Bed, Black
Generally, I knew what I was buyng, but...

Generally I knew I was buying a sleek, black, hefty aluminum loft bed that fit beautifully into a small New York apartment or even a dorm room. It is just about ideal for me. However, because it is only industrial aluminum, it really does need anchoring straps to the studs of a wall (which are not provided) and assembling it alone was a slow, challenging process, particularly in a small space.

The Bed is just what I wanted, minus the fact that it came with NO instructions, None. That's the only con.

Was easy to put together. Is a little shaky when climbing the ladder, but is stable otherwise. My 6 year old son loves it.

We bought this bed for my daughter who is 11 years old. She has limited space in hr bedroom and it works well to open up her floor to allow floor space to be used for other things. It was a little wobbly but we bolted it to the wall and now it is perfect. She loves her bed.

Review 7 for Dorel - Full Metal Loft Bed, Black
Sways but not too wobbly

Got this for my son. I almost didn't purchase this because of the bad reviews on the bed swaying, but the price persuaded me to get it anyway.
We cut the legs down 8 inches before we assembled it so my son would have extra head room between the bed and ceiling.
The bed does sway some when you climb on it but once your on it it doesn't seem to have much movement.
I would recommend this bed.

Most directions to put items together are very vague. THIS was extremely EASY to put together and the directions were clear. We placed the metro futon underneath and it fits perfectly. Gives you more space in a small bedroom.

I bought this bed thinking it would be perfect, since I live in NYC. This thing sways like no other. I'm sure it's not going to fall. You're are fine once you lay down, the minute you turn over or get off the bed the swaying begins. It's not my weight causing it, since I am not overweight :(

Good for a small room

I moved into my first apartment and didn't want to take my twin bed with me because it's uncomfortable to fit two people when my boyfriend sleeps over. But I also didn't have a bedroom big enough for a full or queen size bed. I was happy to find this bed because now I have a full size bed but my desk and dresser fit under it, so I've still got floor space. It was pretty easy to put together, and I made sure everything was very tight, but it still shakes when I get on or move on it. I think it's safe because I DID tighten everything, but it's still wobbly. The ladder hurts my feet, especially in the morning so I kind of jump down usually. I also had to take the blades off the ceiling fan so I wouldn't get my head chopped off. Because I don't have air conditioning, sometimes it's a bit too warm to sleep up there (it's warmer than on the ground), so I sleep on the floor. Just some things to consider.

We recently purchased this bed for our daughter. I love the idea and space saving availability of the the loft bed. For the price, I figured it wouldn't be perfect. We too have the same issues with the bed being very wobbly, but it definitely is not going anywhere. Our main complaint is that is it very squeaky. Whenever my daughter climbs up or down the ladder or moves the slightest but in bed we can hear it down the hall. She doesn't mind, but it is driving me crazy. Going to try to add some rubber washers to see if it helps. Anyone else have this issue or have any ideas on how to eliminate the noise??

Great Bed

I bought this bed for my eight year old son. At first he was excited to get in it, but was reluctant to sleep in it. After I bought C clamps with spacers and bolted it to the wall studs it barely moves and he loves it. It was pretty stable before but would sway just a little, which kind of freaked him out. It's actually a pretty heavy bed, but for younger kids I would recommend bolting it to the wall. Also you can put a memory foam mattress on it without a bunky board.

We purchased this because my daughters share a room and we need the space. We already had a twin bed that we placed under this loft bed. My daughter and I put this loft bed together in about 2 hours. All the parts were in the box, labeled correctly. Instructions were easy to read. Shipping was very quick. Ordered on Sunday and it arrived on Wednesday.

The bed is great for the value. Had no problems putting it together, only complaint is that it sways a little when you go up and down the ladder. My teenage daughter loves it and it makes her room look great, so I do recommend it.

We hesitated purchasing this bed after reading the reviews but ordered anyway. So glad we did!! It was easy to put together and was much sturdier than expected! She loves the bed and has so much more space in her small 10x10 room. So far we have had no problems with the bed "swaying" and she weighs 120 lbs. Shipping was also faster than we expected. Overall great value and cool bed!

I ordered this bed for my 14 year old son and he absolutely loves it. I assembled the bed myself and it took approximately 2 hours. If you have someone to help you it shouldn't take quite that long. The instructions are clear. The bed does have a slight sway, but nothing to be of concern. I read a review in which someone had shortened the legs to decrease the sway--this would be great if the loft space underneath the bed was going to be used for a small child, but my son is almost 6 feet tall and if we lowered it, he wouldn't be able to sit at his desk, so consider the amount of space needed under the bed before you decide to shorten the legs. Overall we are both pleased with the bed and the increase in usable space in his room.
