(I ran out of space on the post title, and the question mark wouldn't fit.)
DD would love one of these beds. It would be my first experience with a loft bed (didn't have one in college!) AND our first experience with Ikea. (Our nearest store is 4 hours away, sigh.)
We'd want/need a full-size one, for a bigger bed (she now has a twin) and for a larger workspace underneath. She's 11 and wants a cooler room, and I was thinking that surprising her with the loft bed she's been asking for would be great for Christmas.
I know Ikea has a great rep in general. We rarely buy furniture -- our beds are iron and brass from a local factory. The rest of our stuff is either old crap or antiques. (Sometimes both in the same piece. haha.)
Walmart has similar stuff, but DD, like me, is specific in her wants -- double-size, white. It's hard to find that. I have found some online, but those are $900. Nope.
I think the Tromso model has a desktop that you can buy to add under it, and that would be fab as well. But I'd like some real-world reviews from people I trust -- therefore, I come to the Peas, bearing questions!
Thanks for any help.
