Would this bed be suitable for a 19 year old, college student? Should I expect it to last him the next four years? He's about 5'11ft tall and 140 lbs.

I'm 5'10" & 200, and it seems very sturdy. You can always add extra slats if you want to make it more rigid, but I haven't seen the need. I really like this frame.

This bed fell apart the support boards under the bed are not strong enough to hold up mattress, I had to go and buy a new metal platform to put between headboard and footboard, the headboard and footboard are nice though.

I have only owned this bed less than a year and it is used in a guest room, but it has actually gotten a fair amount of use from a few of my adult kids and so far is holding up well. College students can be rough on furniture, but if he treats it well and doesn't move too much he should be fine. I think it is a lovely bed frame.

I believe so because this bed takes a twin mattress. We have had this bed for almost a year and it supports my 4 year old and myself(130ish lbs) just fine every night when I lay with her to read. I have recently had to tighten up the bolts as my daughter jumps and wiggles a lot. This has been a great and sturdy bed! All the supporting slats are still perfect. Would by again

We bought this for my mother who is 118 lbs, but only 4'11". The 125 lbs would be OK, but 5'5" may be too tall because of ht of seat and foot rest - persons knees may be raised too high and be uncomfortable. This is my opinion

I purchased this bed for our college student's apartment so we would have a bed to sleep on when visiting. It is very comfortable and measures 24" from the floor to the top of the mattress. Hope this information helps! :))

The bed is a normal size twin and a normal size full. I have no issues with my 11 year old fitting in the top bunk and he is tall for his age. He and his younger brother are swapping spots soon but only because my 9 year old wants the top bunk.

I've had this mattress for 13 months. I also bought one for my daughter at the same time. They've both held up beautifully. Just like any other mattress...might be sturdier even. I don't know if it would make a difference on size and weight...my teenage daughter and I are both 5'7" and 140 lbs.

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

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.

My son is using his mattress in his dorm room with a plywood base kind of like a bunk bed. He is 5' 10" and about 173ish and finds the mattress to be very comfortable without a box spring. I hope this helped

I weigh 240 and it was great for two weeks. Then it started losing air and it would lose so much during the nightit would fold up around me. It's an awesome looking bed but I was probably too heavy. 200 and under would probablybe OK.

I'm 6-3 235 lbs and the bed works great. It is very sturdy and well worth the money. If I could do it all over again, I would go with the automatic it's only $300 or so more. Good Luck.

My son loved it for his dorm room and thought it comfortable. He is 6'4" and 200lbs. I thought it OK for the price and give it a B.

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 kind of doubt it would hold up for long term usage. It's comfortable enough and I use it as a bed for my great grand baby when she visits. It's pretty sturdy but continued use by an adult might be expecting too much.

The bed is smaller than a regular twin bed. Someone 5"10 or above may not be comfortable because the bed is short. In my opinion you would be comfortable ocassionally sleeping on the bed, I don't know if it is durable enough for regular usage.

I think that it would be fine. I use our mattresses (I also have the king size) in a vacation house, so for long term, I can't say with certainty, but at present it seems fine. It also has no weight distribution issues, as I (not a skinny person) , can get out of bed without my husband being disturbed. It is amazing mattress for the price point..hope this helps.

My son is 2 and in the97 percentile for his height, he still has a decent amount of time to use this bed. Highly encourage it for the switch from crib to a "big boy bed" he loved it so much he didnt get out of it at night for the longest time! !
