Chelsea Lane Elise Convertible Twin over Twin Wood Bunk Bed, Yellow

We have had one of these beds for two and a half years. We loved it so much we had to get another for our girls room. They are thick and sturdy and the finish is rich. We have had one of our sons make bite marks up on the top bunk, but you don't even notice! Other than forced wear and tear, it doesnt get scratched or marked easily and is still in like new condition! Best beds for the price and for little kids. Our oldest is seven.

I purchased the Elise Bunk Bed- Honey Pine color. Wanted mahogony but was out-of-stock. Much to my surprise, the honey pine color was deeper and richer than the pictures. I am very happy with the color. The upper bunk has a lot of slats to support the mattress which makes the bed very sturdy. I also like the ladder being part of the bed- does not stick out from the bed at an angle. The ladder can be at the head or foot of the bed. I prefer the ladder at the foot of the bed as I think it is safer and easier to use here. The only problem I have with this bed is the ladder steps- the two middle steps are vertical (with wooden pegs and screws holding it in.) So there is only a small area, about 2 inches, to balance on. These 2 steps on the ladder, should be turned horizontally which would give a 3 inch step. I will be turning these two steps to provide a larger stepping area. The weight limit for the upper bunk is over 200 pounds! Which was one of the reasons why I chose this bed. My boys are young, but when they get older, I will still have the option of keeping the bunks (or can change it to two twins). This was the only bunk that I found in this price range that had a high weight limit. I am very satisfied with the bed- the way it looks, the sturdiness, and the price was great!
