This is a great bed, we slept in it last night and it was wonderful, it goes beautifully with the white furniture we have. However, there were a couple cracks in the wood, and assembly left a little to be desired.
The assembly wasn’t quite thorough enough so I ended up having to flip around a few pieces that I put on backwards because the picture wasn’t clear. Then with the slats that go under the mattress, the picture showed you making sure it was flush, but in reality, they didn’t quite fit length wise and there were some gaps; though I still think it’s sturdy enough. Also, not every part that you needed to hand screw was pre drilled, and it was too difficult to hand screw straight into the wood, so thankfully I had my own drill so I could make some holes into the wood first. If they had just done that extra step of a few pre drilled holes, I could’ve done the entire bed by hand. It was easy enough that I (30yr/f) put the bed together solo.
The cracks are on the footboard, which not only was cracked but also slight bowed. It’s the only piece that isn’t real wood, so I get it, but I wish it wasn’t there. It still all fit together, and no one will notice it, but I know it’s there.
I originally left a great review because this bed seemed great, until I woke up this morning to the steel beam bending and snapping off the bed frame. I'm so thoroughly disappointed in this bed, I was so excited and happy with it, but after only 2 weeks of use it's broken, and the one side rail also cracked all the way across (not pictured) sorry for the mess I had just woken up
I would have given this bed 5 stars until I discovered it was damaged on two pieces.
Fortunately both areas are not visible when a mattress is in place. The footboard was badly cracked and could potentially be a problem later on but I used a very good wood glue to hopefully alleviate any issues. It was well packaged and I am not sure how it even got damaged. Otherwise, gorgeous and sturdy bed. Very "modern farmhouse" look.
EDIT:
We were having issues with the support leg beam rotating and bending the screws. This was fine and we got it figured out. A couple weeks later (tonight as I was trying to go to sleep) the whole right side of the bed collapses underneath me. We’ve only had this bed for 5 weeks. Between me, my boyfriend, and my dog we are less than 500 pounds and the bed is supposed to be able to support up to 1000 pounds. Very disappointing
Original:
This bed looks really good and it seems sturdy to lay on, but where it’s made from soft wood it gets scratched and dented very easily. It took around an hour for 2 of us to make the bed, and after making it we realized there were some dings and dents in the wood. It’s really disappointing because I’d like to have a bed frame that looks like it’s nice and new, but it’s too much of a hassle to tear the bed down and return it.
I love the bed it's sturdy and is well made. My only problem was the instructions were not accurate and confusing. You don't need a drill you can just use a screw driver but it would be faster will be alot faster with a drill. I bought the gray bed set there wasn't any scratches or damage on the product and it arrived on time.
Very nice quality, easy build, and seems pretty sturdy (unlike others we looked at). Knocked one star off due to a rough finish on one post of the bed.
Bought this for our daughter, and she loves it! Easy to assemble, parts clearly labeled, good instructions and good quality. A definite win!
Bed frame arrived with no instructions for how to assemble.
