Strong Odor
May 1, 2013
The bed is nice but the odor from the wood is horrific. I don't understand why the bed should have such a strong varnish smell. I've ordered furniture from PB before and never had this problem. I'm not sure I would order children's furniture from them again. I worry about putting this in my child's room.

Beautiful but soft wood
March 27, 2013
We ordered one to try out for our three boys and were initially blown away by the craftsmanship of the bed and bedside table (note to buyers, we did not pay attention to the height of the headboard and were surprised at how tall it is but have come to love it). Our one critic is the wood is so soft that within three months our 4 and 2 year old have marked up the top of the footboard simply by getting in and out of the bed; we're not sure how this bed will wear with growing boys.

Poor quality control
May 19, 2012
We received 8 bed rails over the course of 4 different shipments to finally receive 2 bed rails which weren't damaged. The box and packaging weren't damaged from the shipment, these were shipped out damaged. If you want a bed damaged before your kids even use it, by all means buy this bed. Otherwise, stay away.

Fast Delivery!
November 15, 2011
Delivery was great- as scheduled. Arrived in about 3-4 weeks after order placed. Got Thomas Bed, nightstands and chest. Looks great. Got the dark espresso color for my son's new "big boy room" looks great! Easy purchase! Furniture is great quality. Do not need box spring with bed.

Love Our Thomas Beds!
June 22, 2011
We purchased two (white) twin beds in the Thomas Collection about a month ago for our 9 & 10 year old girls. They LOVE their beds! We are very impressed with the quality and construction of these beds. We shopped around for a long time before deciding on these beds. So far we are very happy about our purchase and today received the Thomas Chest of Drawers! Will probably purchase the night stand next.

Beautiful & sturdy
April 7, 2011
I bought this bed in white. It's a creamy off-white color. The bed looks very well made, feels solid and was very easy to put together. I love the patterns in the wood. It has a lot of style, while still looking simple.

Fabulous purchase
February 20, 2011
Purchased two of these beds one in rustic sun valley white and one rustic sun valley honey...what an all around fabulous bed!! Very well made and beautiful finish on both the white and honey. They were super easy to assemble and arrived in record time of only 2 days!!! Very impressed overall with the service from PBK, the quality and look of the beds. Well worth every penny!..We had shopped in town and found nothing comparable to the quality or price. I would recommend "mattress only" as some others have reported. The bed offers a very supportive platform that accommodates mattress only very well and offers a perfect sized bed for young children. I dont think the headboard would be very visable with a mattress set, just my opinion. Our children ages 5 and 3 are so excited about their big kid beds!! Our 3 yr old exclaimed..."my bed is amazing!"

Thomas Bed
September 22, 2010
All 3 of my kids have Pottery Barn kids bedroom furniture and I bought this full size Thomas bed to replace a PB twin bed for a growing boy. The Thomas collection has a great, classic look (all of our pieces are in the honey color) and has been very durable.

Great looking and good quality
September 14, 2010
The furniture looks great and the quality is outstanding. The only problem we had was that it came with the legs but the finials were missing. I had to contact customer service to get finials shipped.

Yet again, another excellent piece of furniture from Pottery Barn. My husband and I are very happy with our purchase (as is our son!). Plus, the guys that came to put the furniture together were super nice and courteous- you can't go wrong!!

Perfect Big Boy Bed
June 12, 2010
A perfect big boy bed for our two year old. We liked that it had a short footboard (less possibility of bumped heads). One issue we found is finding a standard bedrail that would fit between the mattress and the bed frame. After a few returns, we did find one. Overall, a great bed!

White Thomas Bed and Trundle
June 3, 2010
I purchased the bed, trundle, 2 mattresses, 1 nightstand, the double dresser, and tall bookshelf for my 2 year old granddaughter. I love the distressed look and the wainscoting on the bed and the back of the shelf. My granddaughter loves it so much that she can be found at various times throughout the day, sitting on her bed, reading her books. The quality is outstanding !! Very heavy and every detail is meticulous !!! We are extremely satisfied - well worth what we paid !!

not durable
May 17, 2010
I love the look and style of the bed for my 3 year olds room. But I am disappointed in the quality of the bed. We have only had the bed 3 months and there are already many scratches and dents in the wood from my son playing on and around the bed. I am surprised at how soft the wood is and the low grade quality. I was going to order the Thomas dresser next but now I am not buying anymore furniture from PBK. Hope this helps.

Love this bed!
March 15, 2010
Love this bed! We recently purchased the Thomas bed for our almost 2 1/2 year old son. His first big boy bed! I've been looking at beds for almost a year trying to find one that would match a dresser that we bought for him at a local store that (sadly) closed it's doors. I saw the Thomas bed in the catalog a while ago and really liked it & knew that it would match but hesitated because of the expense. We drove 2 hours to look at it in person in the closest Pottery Barn Kids store. We so happy that we made the decision to save up and buy it. It's not only beautiful but soooo well constructed. Most important...our son loves it!

Disappointed in the Quality
February 13, 2010
Bought this set in expresso a few years ago as my son's first big boy bedroom set. Within 6 months, one of the balls on the headboard cracked/split. Now the top of the night stand is starting to crack and peal. Very disappointed for the money we spent!

We got this bed on sale in black - Its just gorgous and makes a real statement to the whole room. Its beautiful and sturdy. A real solid bed made to last for many years. Just what we need for our boy!
Shipping took 4 weeks but it was worth the wait!!
