Would this bed be suitable for a 12 year old about to be 13 soon? I'm worried that he'd just outgrow it very soon...

I think a teen would outgrow this really quick. If he were 7 or 8 I'd say go for it, but since he's headed into teenage years, I think you'd be wasting your money.

I guess it would depend on how tall he or she is. It does expand a bit, but even at the longest length it isn't too large for my 6-year-old (50 inches tall) to use... so I'm guessing that it would seem small for a 12 year old...

This bed was purchased for my 5 year old & she never had any fear & I felt it was safe. The step up into the bed from the ladder may be more challenging for a younger child unless tall for their age. The construction of the bed would almost require a leap to get out...no real roll out concerns. It should last threw maybe 12 years old, depending on the kid.

It might be. The whole is a bit wide. My 2.75 yr old fits on it, but it's almost too wide for her sometimes. Your 12 month old will likely "fit" but maybe won't feel very secure....

We have been using it as my daughter's bed for several months. She is 15, and it has been fine. Very sturdy.

Interesting coincidence... my grandson, who this was purchased for, is a little guy too. Jeremiah turned 3 this past June and this bed was his birthday present. He is only in the 3rd percentile and we expect him to be able to use this bed, comfortably, for at least 2 more years, if not 3. My best friend's little girl sleeps in it on occassion and she will be 5 in December. She's a tiny one too & she has plenty of room. I hope this helps!

I agree with other responses. Go with a larger tent for the numbers you're speaking of. (6) 12 year olds is very doable, but best to have a little extra room for moving about.

My son's are 7 & 11 and they sit up in them to play there game systems if that helps....the beds are super high quality ...I will order all my kids beds from Stork!

The bed is adorable but it is very small. In my opinion...no. If they have the next size up, go for it!

We bought this bed when my son turned 2 and he loved it. You may want to consider an additional bed rail because it doesn't stick up past the matress very far.

I think it would depend on the color of the bed and possibly the size of the boy. I bought it in white for my daughter, who was 17 at the time. She is also petite, and it is sized for a standard twin sized bed, not the extended twin. Of course, whether it was suitable for a boy in the white color would depend on the décor. We've had this for nearly two years, and it has lasted very well, shows no signs of wear whatsoever. The one thing I do recall is that it definitely takes two people to assemble, and the assembly is not the easiest to follow. But I am very pleased with the piece.

Yes I think it would be too young for a 12year old. I bought it for 5 & 6 year olds.

I don't think he's too young because it's only a table. It can be folded, probably unlike a plastic one. If he loves construction he will grow with this because the height can be changed. It's very cute in that it's a real work bench, with places for his stuff.

My son got this for his 12th birthday and loved it. He put it together very quickly, so I would think younger kids (9 or 10?) would enjoy it too.

So far bed has held up with 2 sturdy active boys who are 10 to 12 years of age and of course I go around every-so-often and tighten the screws. I have each bed set up on a corner wall in one room, maybe this helps it be more sturdy.

It would be perfect for a 12 year old. It does take a couple hours to put together. You have to watch the CD that comes with it. One of the screws was missing, but my 17 year old still plays it and it sounds great.

Yes, this bed is great for a six year old. Holds up to 150 lbs. I have 8 grandkids and even the 11 yr old sleeps on it.
