Do the rungs of the ladder lay flat or are they rounded? I'm concerned that it will hurt my son's feet climbing up.

They are rounded. My 9 year old has not complained yet about it hurting her feet.

my kids go up and down a hundred miles an hour no complaints they are round

They are square, but they haven't bothered my daughter's feet at all. I've also climbed up and, while it's not exactly comfy, it's not bad. The bed is very sturdy and looks exactly as pictured (the only thing I've had to do since putting it together - which isn't hard, just time-consuming - is tighten a couple of the nuts where the futon pieces come together).

Nope.Its not flat and its kind of hallow. The product was so badly designed, The moment the ball hits the board (which holds the basket) the links which you use to adjust the height will break loose and you end up assemble everything again. I have applied a tape to hold the links and the hook that holds the entire unit. Another bad design, if your kid applies little force on the basket, the lock which hold the basket in its position will break loose and it gets locked in the downward position and you have apply force to bring it back (which is not easy) to its position and there is no easy way or lock release to bring it back to correct position.

Each rung is about 2 inches wide. Depending on how your ladder is set up; sometimes at lower levels you are actually standing on two rungs together which makes it more comfortable. A suggested add-on; or possibly included in your purchase, is the removable work platform. The platform hooks over any rung and gives you a really large standing area for those long work periods up on the ladder.

No, they are not totally flat. There is a small circular indentation, not real deep but definitely an indentation.

Mine is oval with no flat side, really. They work great! So glad I got them, sick of the ladder!

The ladder rungs are 0.75 inch square by about 1 foot wide. OK for Bare Feet. Probably saver with bare feet than with shoes or slippers. Better grip with bare feet.

Hi Jen...I bought these over 2 years ago but if I remember they are more flat. Only raised up a little.

The legs have a hard plastic end. They seem smooth but to be doubly sure to protect the floor, you might want to use felt on the bottom of the leg.

The steps measure 10" between each one. I am 62 yrs. old, have had both hips replaced, and have joint pain. But I have no problem using this ladder.

I have cats ranging from 6 lbs to 25 lbs that run up and down it all day long. I have NEVER had to worry about it. You dont even need the ladders because the cats dont use them and they dont support it at all. My cats stretch or scratch on the bottom ladder.

I believe so. My son has flat feet and since he started using them about 4 years ago has had no problems at all. Highly recommended.

Hi, the top rung is five feet off the ground on my six foot Louisville Ladder :)

They don't!! I had to return mine after only 30 to 45 minutes use. I was very hopeful as it is sure a nice size and light weight for ladder work

They're not *rounded* but no, I wouldn't say they're sharp. We've had it for 2+ years and have never had a kid hurt themselves on it.

It's perfectly flat. both of my boys have slept on one of these since birth without issue.

it's not flat but they unravel quite easily since it's just on one side. just let gravity do the work.

I have metal round legs and the risers work fine. The risers have an indent in them where the leg sits in so the legs don't slide off them. My only concern was how high the risers made the bed since my dog (20 lbs.) jumps on and off a couple times a day. He is fine jumping on but I try to lift him off when I can because I don't like that hard "thud" getting off, even though it is carpeted where he lands.
