I didn't buy this off of Amazon because I was able to get a better deal from the manufacturer's site, but wanted to share my review since when I bought this, there were no reviews (looks like that has changed since). We've had the bedframe for about two months now, and I have to say I'm impressed by how sturdy it is for the price. It doesn't move at all when I get in and out of bed, which I was worried about. I was worried we'd have to send it back because of poor quality (remember, there were no reviews at the time to go by). But we haven't had any problems.
Because we don't have a box spring, the bed is pretty low to the ground, as is expected with this type of bed. There is about 6 inches between the frame and floor, which gives you just enough room to stick an under-bed storage plastic tub under it, if you feel so inclined. The bed was extremely easy to put together, and I think it looks great (see my photos, I apologize for their quality. I took them quickly with my phone as we set the bed up).
My only con that I didn't know when I ordered is that there is a strip on the planks (again, see photos) that you pull off before you put the mattress on. This is meant to hold the mattress in place. I don't know if that will damage the mattress in the long run or have any negative effects, but I do wish the frame itself had a lip that held the mattress in place rather than these tacky strips underneath.
EDIT: November 2017
Just to update, we ended up switching mattresses and although the first mattress stuck a little due to the sticky strips, it came off pretty easy. The new mattress has been on the frame for about a month or so and it hasn't had any problem moving.
I loved the look of this bed frame, and most of it is designed and built well. HOWEVER the center bar support is the weak point. Within a month the center support leg was bent (I am not a large person, 5' 4" at 170 lbs) and proceeded to scratch the crap out of my hardwood floors. It also bent the longer span wise middle support bar a little too. Fortunately I am handy and was able to install 2 by 2 in place of the three shorter support legs with some steel brackets. Hopefully it will hold up. It's very frustrating purchasing something that not only does not hold up, but also damages your floors!
I’m not sure if I should even continue opening this package. This is how it arrived.
If you like a bed that creaks and squeaks and is made of, who knows what kind of wood, and requires numerous trips to the store to get parts that either weren't included or are of such poor quality had to be replaced..... then this is what you should order.
Hind sight tells me I should have returned it immediately ... but have you ever tried to pack up parts and pieces of a queen size bed?
Just wrote it off as a bad experience AND expensive lesson learned. I wish I could give is 1/2 a star instead of 1 ... and that would be a gift just because it arrived on time.
I'm not including the shipping issue in the rating as I'm not sure of it was Amazon's issue or the shipping company. I ordered the bed on 5/22 and it was free shipping, 1 to 2 days to process. The ETA was 5/26, however when I viewed the tracking information there was nothing available. I contacted Amazon through chat and they agreed there was no information available. Needless to say, it arrived on 5/30 and in good condition.
The packaging was nicely packed, with styrofoam in plastic so you don't get the little pieces everywhere. The directions were very clear and easy to read. I, not a handy person, put it together myself in under an hour.
My favorite thing was the slats, they were held together and used velcro along the sides. No need to put them on one by one.
The wood was very nice and a great finish. Overall, very happy with the purchase and the price.
It arrived in two sturdy boxes and seemed well-packed. We did not find any nicks or issues with the wood; it is solid wood; very nice looking piece of furniture. There is an iron bar that runs the lend of the bed to shore up the slats, which come in sheets of two that fix nicely to frame and are held in place by Velcro; two of the slats have peel and stick to keep the mattress in place. I have attached some photos.
Very pleased with this purchase in regard to quality, price and speed of delivery.
The order arrived quickly. The Frame was well packaged, even the styrofoam was bagged. All the pieces were there and for the first time ZERO FLAWS or DAMAGE. It was very easy to assemble and I followed the instructions provided to avoid divorce court. We used an Endy Mattress to top it. The frame is stealthy quiet and has passed vigorous stress testing with flying colours. It is a simple, beautiful platform bed. Well made. I would buy it again.
My two 6 foot boys say they are sleeping in luxury like kings !!
Not bad for the price but came with some scratches and dents in the headboard and base legs. Would not consider it great condition and the Customer service reps were hard to get ahold of. Overall it’s sleep able and pretty sturdy.
For the price you can't go wrong and I would say it easier to put together than some IKEA products I've done in the past.
Fairly straightforward to assemble. Classic yet simple design. Solid wood. No creaking. It has a low headboard, which is what I wanted.
Very attractive, firm support. Headboard could be a little higher.
Exactly described and shown on pictures. Easy to assemble, good packaging - looks good and sturdy!
good quality but one piece of wood footboard cracked on the inside not visable but seen it when I put it together other wise nice frame
It is a good product of medium sturdiness. It is not for heavy duty use though.
Wow great product
received sooner than expected
Great quality
Super easy to put together
Don’t hesitate to make this purchase
