Is the opened height of 18" accurate ? I saw the same bed somewhere else, and it listed 14", which I think is TOO low to the ground.

Yes, the height is correct, but it does sink in the middle. My dad actually cut a piece of plywood and put under the mattress and I also bought one of the egg foam pads at Walmart to give it added comfort.

I cannot answer for certain the exact height because I did not measure it when we used it and it is now tucked away neatly in the closet. I do know it is low to the ground, but my 87 year old father thought it was just fine. The mattress is very comfortable.

That must be their estimation of the size of the boxes it comes in. When you put it together, extra length is added. We have three of these beds, they are 54 inches high and 78 long. They are great beds!

The bed itself is 8" off the floor, with a mattress it is about 14" from the top of the mattress to the floor.

Mine was just over 16" high. I thought it was 18 and bought it because of that. Otherwise we love it.

Hi Maggie,Actually set up mine is 18 inches on the high side and 9 inches on the low side. I love them. They do take a lot of dirt, but I used leaves and composted materials for the bottom. Very sturdy once put together.

Well my son is alil over 36in tall... and he stands under it and only has to bring his head down a bit so i wanna say about any where from 32-34in in height.. its a sturdy bed.. my husband is 203lbs n climbs on it to play the wii with my son..lol so no worries there.. the only con i have is to make sure u check the wood when it comes in. Mines came in and it had a small wood chip that can cause splinters, so i covered it with clear duck tape...lol

Yes, they are the same height. But I do not recommend these beds. They are made of cheap lumber and the beds we bought split on the rails on the sides. And the boards for support under broke. The company would not even respond to me when I tried to contact them. This is truly a Buyer Beware!!

I don't have the bed here - I bought it for my grandson, so I'm not sure about height. It is on slats.

For a slightly higher than standard bed, which I have, it is probably about 8 inches off the ground on the sides, and slightly less at the bottom. It doesn't touch the floor with the bed I have.

It is 17" high and I believe that is without the mattress. My granddaughter sleeps on this every weekend, and my brother when he stays over. They are not 14" off the ground. I believe that bed itself is 17" off the ground with a 3" memory foam mattress on top making them about 20" off the ground. Hope that helps you.

Also let me add that I have a low profile box spring (4 inches) which makes the height of the bed just right. It's too low (in my opinion) without the box spring and too high with traditional box spring.

I measured it at 14 inches at it's lowest without mattress. Of course, since it's adjustable, it can go much higher while keeping it flat.

I have the beds apart right now, so I can't measure the actual height, but when they were one over the other for an adult it is too low to sit up comfortably on the lower bed.

It is! One of the selling points for me is the low height since I purchased it for my 4 year old who occasionally falls out. As far as standard beds go, this is on the "shorter" side.

It is probably too low. I have not measured from floor to upper edge of mattress, because some creepy Amazon algorithm contacted me out of the blue to answer this question and I am therefore not invested. But it is definitely low. An infirm person would need assistance. A solution might be to provide that assistance.

My bed is 27" high as well so I didn't think this was going to work as it is only 19" high. My mini dachshund jumps right into the bed (and she's an old gal!) I did see a 5 stepped item that stuck out too far for my small bedroom. If you have the room, that might work better.

Honestly, I wouldn't buy this bed if I were you the craftsmanship is horrible. The wood split when I was assembling it it was damaged when it came to my house and I'm constantly having to tighten the screws because they always seem to work themselves out. This bed served its purpose and the price wasn't bad but I will be replacing it with a regular bed soon. To answer your question the mattress is about 6-8 inches off the ground and the lower bedrail is like 1ft to 1.5 ft off the ground.
