     OK I am building this bed and I need Opinions, so obviously I came to fedi.

     The bunk bed came with two centre "support rails" and 4 brackets for holding these rails. It also came with 3 centre support legs (2 in place in Pic 1, 1 on the floor.)

     Now. Do both centre rails go on the bottom, or one bottom, one top? If one goes in the top, it has to go in the thinner board at the ends (Pic 2).

     If both on the bottom, there would be another support leg. If top, it's supported by thin wood.

     @datn The instructions are woefully inadequate https://www.strictlybedsandbunks.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/18D-Duke-Triple-Sleeper.pdf

     The instructions are here: https://www.strictlybedsandbunks.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/18D-Duke-Triple-Sleeper.pdf

     If you follow them, you will install 1 centre rail with the final support leg, halfway across the "bottom fascia."

     If you follow these instructions exactly, you will not install the second support rail anywhere, nor will you install the slats in the top bunk.

     @datn Oh that's a great point. Looking at other more clear photos (page 10, "Attaching the ladder to the bed") you can clearly see the centre support bracket on the top bunk!

     @datn The kids slept on it last night. Seems like a success!
