My daughter's room is not the biggest yet has lots of hight so we were thinking of getting a high bed with lots of room underneath but they seem to cost a small fortune anyway does anyone know of any deals for them or places we can shop for them I am happy building flat packs no problem she is 7 and we want it to last a while ! So needs to be a sturdy one . Thanks in advance

I used to have a high bed when I was small.
I much prefer a normal height bed even I live in a box room. (edited)

We went for pine because the metal ones were quite painful on her feet. In the same way the ladder 'sticks' out as she couldn't manage the vertical ladders (a completely vertical ladder can be quite challenging for some).
We bought it in 2016, and this past weekend I've dismantled it to move into another bedroom. Everything is still rock solid and it's worn really well. Obviously it's not the cheapest by a long way, but it's not had any maintenance needed on it.
She has an Ektorp Ikea sofa underneath it, with a TV and Playstation mounted on one of the legs. She bumped her head a few times but she's used to it now.
We have this which my sister gave to us for our eldest son.
It's a really sturdy bed,well made.
Don't know if you might find anything on local selling pages which is a reasonable price.
I think IKEA sell high beds at a reasonable price as well.
My only advise is really think about it as changing sheets can be a nightmare quite frankly,does my head in.
I grabbed a bargain, just as well - only lasted two years before bored
