Do you have to install the ladder? I'm thinking of trimming the legs down to make this a low toddler bed and unsure if ladder needs cut, too. Thanks!

If you are going to cut the legs to make the whole thing low to the ground then you could just leave the ladder off. Normally you put it together separately and then put it on the bed at the end. What about a platform bed if you want something low to the ground? Then just use one of those safety rails until the child is old enough that you know they wont roll out.

You will need to put it together. It comes with the bunk-bed, pink liners and ladder. It's cute, but the bed pieces the liner sits on broke and there's no way to attach the ladder. Great for the price though.

Hi Kristen .. We have also put the bed on the floor for 6 months .. Bed frame is not really mandatory ...

You would have to cut the legs off with a circular saw. The legs hold the table together. Not a big deal, when I have my inlaws over I take the legs off and put it under the futon. If you want pics or have any questions email me at johnnyred1@optonline.net. Buy it, your kid won't be disappointed.

The ladder has hooks on top that connect to the bed. I bought one for my 3 and 4 yr old girls, they have worked great!

The ladder is not attached, it leans against the beds. When my daughter wants to use all 3 beds, she simply moves the ladder to the end.

The ladder is completely optional. It hooks onto the bed when you're ready.

No, I believe you have to buy the extra parts. Like the crib to bed, you need to buy the side railings for toddler. Other than that, not sure what else you'd need.

I bought this bed for my daughter for Christmas and the ladder has hooks that allows you to hang the ladder on the side but it isn't permanently attached. Hope this helps!

I think you only have to screw the legs in. We have been very happy with ours.

No. We had the same problem, but had to live with it. The ladder has pre-drilled holes and is part of the frame. No way to reverse the set up.

No, the ladder can only be put by the foot of the bed. If you'r facing the bed the ladder would be on the right side just as the pic.

The ladder doesn't come off r remove from the bed as it is part of its construction. I don't know if you could go "maguiver" and flip the orientation while assembling it, but I'd say as it is supposed to be assembled, no.

You don't have to, but when I bought this, I purchased a ladder separately. It was about $40 and made by the same company. The ladder came with metal hooks that hook over the edge near the bottom of the mattress. I think you could attach it with screws, but we didn't. We move it back and forth. You could also climb up onto the bed from either end, but we have one end against a wall and the other is not very accessible as well.

It was easy to do. It took about 20-30 minutes. We had our toddler help so that added time. Make sure you have the little tool you used to put the bed together.

The ladder just leans against it. My girls love the bunk beds (we have 2 sets)! I totally recommend.

The ladder is not attached. The trundle bed slides out nicely. My niece had an American Girls party and they all slumbered together.
