Is there a weight limit on the bed, both my husband and I together weigh about 500 lbs?

I don't think so, don't remember there being one. The mattress actually sits on the top of the drawer assemblies on both sides and at the foot. The open area at the middle of the top half of the mattress has cross slats (which go the length of the bed) has a medial support bar that goes down to floor. I can't imagine that weight being a problem. I was really happy with the bed, seems well made.

Hello Ruth, this is a good question! The weight capacity of our mates bed 39 inches is 250 pounds, including the mattress. The bed is also an economic option since it does not require the use of a box spring.For additional question, you can contact us at 1-800-290-0465 or visit us at www.southshore.com :)

We have had adults up to 200 lbs. use the bed. The trundle has not yet been used.

I am not sure but my husband and I both sleep on the bed and our combined weight is about 450 lbs and we have had no trouble with them.

Not entirely sure to be honest. The combined weight of me and my wife is about 255 lbs. So we're kind of a bad example of weight capacity.

I never thought to check the weight limit but my girlfriend and I combine for about 300 lbs and haven't had any issues.

It said 500lbs. So more than enough for me (and I am a big guy), but not enough for me and another adult unless they are skinny. LOL

I don't know what is allowed however my sister-in-law and her boyfriend weigh about 350-375 in total (they are a little chunky lol) and they slept on it a few times without any problem.

My husband is about 200 lbs. and the stools are holding up. That being said, I wouldn't go much over that on a regular basis.

I didn't know there was a weight limit. I just know it gives me the best night's sleep ever. My husband and I both weigh under 160 lbs.

It says in the description that the weight limit for each of the beds is 250 lbs. We use our beds as two separate ones for my kids. My husband is a pretty big guy (about 180 lbs) and sometimes he falls asleep next to our son on the bed and we haven't had any problems. I also sleep next to my daughter at times and am not afraid that it's going to break. It seems pretty sturdy. Just to be cautious, I don't ever let them jump on their beds.

Well, myself and my husband combined squeeze in at over 320lbs and it's still sturdy..So at least 400? but you can also ask the manufacturer directly.

We bought the bed for our son and typically we rough house a bit or play on the bed. I weigh 215 and my son weighs about 50. Never had any problems that I am aware of.

I'm not exactly sure, but my husband would snuggle on the main bed with my 40lb son and he was 280lbs with no problems.

See the highly upvoted review about how to reinforce the bed. I'm planning to follow those tips-will get back to everyone about how the bed holds up to 500 lbs of lovin.
