My kids had IKEA loft beds until earlier this year. They had no problems with getting in and out etc but I found them a pain in the bum! They are almost impossible to make, changing sheets was a nightmare! I also found if they were sick they couldn't get off them quick enough if they needed to vomit (sorry if TMI) so they used to sleep on the couch when they were sick.

So, I sold the lfot beds on ebay, made more than I'd paid for them and got them normal beds.
