I no longer use the upper bunk and took it out.  The fold out part is very
robust, with a steel reinforced front edge that will bow, but not break.
Mine was significantly bowed, but was easy to straighten by putting it
between two sawhorses and sitting an bouncing a little on it.

Subject: Upper bunk weight limit?

Camping with the kids (4 and 5) is getting easier, although they still only
sleep when it's dark out.  Which right now is between 1030 and 6 in the
morning.

They get the bottom bed, we get the top (less risk of rolling out and it's
smaller!).

Got me thinking - if the top bunk hasn't failed it must be the only thing
that hasn't.  What's the weight limit up there?  Anybody hear of the bed
coming crashing down in the middle of the night?  Yikes.

Thanks
