No metal support in the middle, but I don't think that you need to buy one. The weight of the bed should really be resting on the legs of the bed frame that the headboard is attached to....not resting on the legs of the head board.

There is no center support but we found IF you install properly and have the frame end supports firmly ON the floor it is quite sturdy.

Not sure what you mean about middle support bar. The top and bottom bunks has many bars that runs under the mattress.It is made out of metal and it is heavy.This is a well made set. My grandson swings off the top bunk to the bottom one.

There are bars for support. However, I wouldn't recommend this item. Mine arrived without the black top shelf. I emailed customer service twice from their home website to request they mail me the missing part and got no response either time. I'm very unhappy with it.

Yes it is very sturdy however I'd put a small block under it in the middle so it dosent sag with the weight since there is no middle support just in case!! I never want to say oh man I should of....! Hope this helps!!

Yes, it is actually a metal frame that supports the mesh piece. Without the frame you would need to have another means for attaching the mesh.

I don't think I needed to add the center board, if I didn't wish to. I thought it would make 2 stronger beds, supported, if I did, so I did. If center support is not an issue then why not?

It has center support, that fell apart in the first storm. So I added two, one on each side and changed out the hardware. The roof material has held up well, I live in a very windy area.

put a piece of plywood under it first. it's very cushy and might squish through the slats depending on the spacing. Mine is supported my a metal mesh net thing now, was directly on floor. comfortable both ways.

Yes additional support is needed. The first ones were recalled. The ones on the market are improved.do not buy a used one.unless you know it is not the old recalled one.

Yes, there are legs in the middle. The frame is designed as two singlebed frames that are attached together. All the legs are braced, creating a very ridgid support.

Agree with the comment below. You will need additional support in the middle.

Its sturdy ,you can add a block of wood underneath for support. Place in the center should not be visible.

Sorry for the delay. I was away from home. I used two together and did have to put a support in the middle as it is a 12 foot window. It would span 6 feet without a support I think.

Mine came with a metal support with springs on the hinges. In other words, my mattress support does not look like the picture at all. I bought mine last month, so I'm not sure if they have redone the support or if there was just an error. Either way, it seems rather sturdy.

You might want to ask EZ shelf. They are pretty easy to get a hold of. The way I have mine setup, no, you need a back wall for the center support. And I'm pretty sure that's what they will tell you, but you can see what they say. There are configurations (for a few more dollars) if you just have a back wall but no side walls.

No, it is all supported across the bed with the pictured springs. The support is in the middle of the bed, and I never noticed it.

Yes, the item is for a set of two supports (as I mentioned in my review).Happy to confirm this for you.
