Hello -I am not able to give you the weight capacity but can tell you the bed has met all the ASTM safety requirements for weight capacity. My understanding is the bed is tested with 400 pounds for a short period of time. This does not mean you should put 400 pounds on the bed. In general, beds that meet the ASTM safety guidelines have a recommendation of about 200 pounds of distributed weight per sleeping surface. Of course this will depend on many factors such as kids being kids and jumping up and down in one concentrated area or the thickness and quality of the mattress. I hope this helps.Scott Hello -I am not able to give you the weight capacity but can tell you the bed has met all the ASTM safety requirements for weight capacity.

Although I never slept on the top bunk, I did feel comfortable making the top, sitting on the top. I would say the top holds at least 150-160 pounds with no fear of compromising the bunk.

The person using the bed frame in our home weighs close to 300 pounds and has not reported any problems. It looks like it is well built. I do, however, not know the specifications.

Their Website (http://www.walkeredison.com/BTOTWH.html) indicates that the weight limit is 250 lbs. for the top bunk. I assume it is the same for the bottom bunk.

"What is the weight capacity for each bunk" the bed is constructed a out of heavy steel, it is very well constructed. I don't think it would have any trouble handling 500 pounds. I am very happy with my bed, I would buy it again without thinking twice.

It depends on how tall the bunkbed is. The person on top will probably have the net touching them and it will need to stretch out of shape to cover that bunk, which means the bottom bunk may not have enough net left for full coverage.

My 17 year old daughter, who weighs about 115 to 120, slept in it fine. My 25 year old son, who weights 200 lbs, slept in the lower bunk, and it was fine, too. It's actually very sturdy. We put it together, and as we were doing so, I was pretty impressed with the quality. It is a very sturdy bed. It looks great as well.

The top bed is stronger than the trundle. My grandchildren have used the beds and the rollers have bent on the trundle. The heaviest grandchild is around 110 lbs and 5'2" currently.

No. I climbed up on the top bunk to hang a picture, and although it didn't collapse or anything, it felt unstable. I'm 160 pounds. The bottom bunk would be okay for an adult though.

I know that 300lbs is ok with this bed. It is very sturdy if assembled correctly.

This bed is for children. I replaced the thin wooden slats with 1 by 4 lumber, and placed a sheet of 3/8 inch plywood over the slats. The slats are secured into the side rails with screws so they will not slip out of place. A person of over 100 pounds should occupy the lower bunk.

From the DHP website - 200 lbs on top bunk and 600 lbs on bottom. http://www.dhpfurniture.com/eng/Products/Juvenile/Bunk-Beds/Details/2989-3156096-Twin-Over-Futon-Bunk-Bed

No. Consider stronger support for top bunk in future. Though my wild child has not broken it yet :)

I do not remember the weight limit, but I do know that it is very sturdy, and I would not hesitate to have an adult on the top bunk. There are enough planks that makes it so. Great choice for bunk beds!

We un-stacked the beds last week and on day 1, I snapped the "top bunk" support in half.... I was standing, rearranging room decorations and plopped down without really thinking about it. I think I read that the max weight is 250 (?) And I weigh nowhere near that... it makes me worried about how this bed will hold up when the boys grow up and jump on their beds!! with that said, my husband and I have laid on both beds with both kids with no problems (all together about 400 pounds).

In the safety regulations there is no weight limit. However, it says to prohibit more than one person using the top bed. It also prohibits use by a child under 6 years old. The bed is pretty sturdy/robust. I read a book to my child and I am 155 lbs with my child about 38lbs. I don't feel as if the bed is under any stress.

Weight limit for upper bunk is 150 lbs. I don't know of a weight limit for lower bed. It does have wooden slats in the frame, so no jumping or goofing around on the bed, or piling the whole family on top.
