Storkcraft Marco Island Captain's Full Twin Sized with Trundle (Espresso)- Bunk Bed Alternative for Sleepovers, Underbed Storage/Organization

We got this ahead of schedule! Nice bed, packaged in 4 separate boxes that all came at once.Finish is great, sturdy good quality bed.My husband and teenage son had this put together in about 75 minutes.Instructions were given with pictures on each step - good visuals and and great labeling of parts and hardware all separated out in separate packaging and labeled with steps appropriatelyWe used her old standard 7 inch mattress for the pull out twin. Which allowed for perfect fit. I'll be able to put sheets and thin blanket on extra bed and still be able to tuck it in with enough clearance.We purchased a new gel-cooling memory foam 8 inch mattress for the top- which worked great!The whole bottom bed unit is on a separate roll out - so you can roll it out completely if needed.The three drawers under the bed, have nice smooth rolling drawers that won't get "off track".Very happy with this purchase.

The bed is well constructed and will support the weight of a 200-50 pound person. The assembly instructional guide was easy to follow. I noticed that on several steps, having an additional person to assist would have made it easier.A 6 inch mattress would be optimal for the trundle bed.You will need to use a 6 inch 1/8 drill bit to drill pilot holes in artificial wood strips to attach wooden bed slates for both top and trundle bed frames. Without pilot holes you risk stripping the heads of screws while trying to screw them into the artificial wood strips.It is helpful to have 2 persons push the trundle under the bed so as not to hit or rub it on the head or foot board of the bed.We have been happy with the purchase of this bed.

We ordered this bed in white after seeing it "in person" at our friend's house, they had one in brown. I was a little hesitant ordering furniture online, but after a few visits to various furniture store, I realized I could pay double for the same type of bed. So we took a chance and I am so glad we did.My 3.5 daughter absolutely loves her "big girl" bed and the fact that she can invite friend over (eventually) for a sleepover. Here is what I like:- The bed was shipped promptly and arrived in just a few days (thanks Amazon). I was concerned reading some reviews that some parts may arrive damaged, but perhaps because it was shipped from California and we live in CA, there were fewer chances for it to get damaged. All pieces arrived in good condition.- This bed looks really nice, great value for the price. I was very hesitant of sinking $1000+ on a bed for a 3.5 YO and decided to instead get a nicer mattress.- I like how compact it is and yet we have an option of putting my daughter and her soon to arrive sibling in one room eventually, when we have guests or for sleepovers. I would like to mention that because this bed has a trundle, it is pretty tall. I bought my daughter a step stool and also a memory foam bumper that goes under the fitted sheet so she doesn't roll off of it. It's a great set-up and she loves climbing up into her bed.Now here is why I'm only giving it 4 stars:- My husband spent good 4-5 hours to put the bed together. One major design flaw - the wood planks that the mattress rests on (both the top level and the trundle) do not have wholes for screws on each plank nor does the base of the bed. There are 10+ planks in each and only 3 of them have wholes to put the screws in. And the rest - bring your power tools - will have to be drilled in. And you don't want to rely on only 3 planks being secure, this is the part that holds that heavy mattress.- Trundle bed wheels are super small. We have carpet in my daughters room and it's very hard to move the trundle in and out. Our friends have it on hardwood and it's much easier to roll.- Drawers are kind of flimsy and not that deep. But I like having some storage for bed sheets, so I'm ok with that.Overall - we are happy with our purchase and do recommend this bed.

The engineering is quite remarkable. All the fasteners go in easily and where they should. It looks sturdy when done and sleeps well. A few scratches and abrasions and holes in boxes but nothing major. Drawers have dovetail joints! Wood is not fragile. I used a cordless driver for most of the assembly. Otherwise, be prepared for a long process and possible strained hands. Also, given the size of the bed, it does come in 4 boxes, three large. There is a great deal of styrofoam to deal with as well as cardboard. There is no styrofoam recycling in my area, so that has been an issue. The flexibility of this bed is nice. It is labelled for teens but is just as good for adults.

I received my packages quickly, but instead of four boxes, I only received three. I called Storkcraft customer service as indicated when you have issues with this product. Customer service couldn't find my order and told me that Amazon has to replace the missing box. Amazon says Storkcraft is supposed to replace the box. As of right now, I have a really nice bed with three holes where drawers are supposed to be located. I would love to change my review if I can get some customer service!

This is a great bed overall - It looks really nice - great for a boy's room or girl's room; can't go wrong with white furniture. There are some build quality issues as noted by most other buyers, but they are not big issues. The knobs are very cheap plastic, and the railing for the drawers has a bit of build integrity issues - rails are not all perfectly sized, so some of the drawers open/close smoothly and others do not - you may have to keep switching the rails to find a compatible pair. There are 3 drawers, 2 are perfect, one is rather off-placed, making it sound and feel like the rails will eventually bend on one side..

This is a nice and sturdy bed. I was super impressed. Set up was pretty simple and instructions were easy to follow. There were a total of 4 boxes. Make sure to get a full mattress that is 54" or you will see the slates,. I had to return the first mattress after I noticed this. I will probably re-enforce the wooden slates with hardwood for some additional support as my child gets older. I bought this bed from Amazon got an excellent deal!!
