Similar to what I saw at Ashley but much cheaper. Easy to assemble and sturdy to sleep on. What I like the most is that no box spring is needed, and you can put storage boxes under.
This was exactly what I was looking for. My daughter and I put it together in about a half hour, we watched the video and that was helpful. It is not as black as I wanted. it is more a dark grey/black hue. It is well built and not cheap looking. I used a 10" mattress with a bamboo mattress pad (2" thick) and it worked perfect with the height of the footboard/headboard. Love It!
The bed was fairly easy to assemble. And seems sturdy. Was disappointed in the color. It was more of a silver color and not black. Luckily I had a few cans of black spray paint and was able to make it what I needed.
Pretty easy to assemble...just follow the instructions step-by-step. I did it myself, but it might be easier at certain stages of the process to have two people. I've never put furniture together before, so I am a novice in this department. It looks good, seems sturdy, and my son likes it.
Takes a little while to put together but easy. Looks very nice and it’s sturdy. No need for box spring with this bed which is nice and its quiet no squeaks when I move around. I would recommend this bed frame to friends and family.
I put the twin bedframe together myself. (65 yr old woman). Took time but it went together perfectly.
I love the style, sturdyness and looks of this bed frame.
Putting this twin bed frame together was easy and I only hit one snag. The side rail is in two pieces with a connector leg connecting them and I did have to use an attitude adjuster (big hammer) and a large screwdriver to get them to fit correctly. Other than that, I really didn't even need directions as it was so simple. Less than 30 minutes, even with the attitude adjustment! I used my power drill with a bit that is like the provided allen wrench (6-sided and size 3/16") which made it super fast and easy.
After a week of use here are my pros and cons.
Pros:
It looks nice.
It does not squeak.
It seems pretty solid (even though it's fairly lightweight).
Cons:
If you bump the side of the mattress it easily slides to the other side - not sure yet how to make it so the mattress bottom is not so slippery against the slats but I'll have to come up with a fix as it is a minor annoyance having to readjust it. I might try wrapping some of that rubbery shelf liner material around some of the slats.
My biggest complaint and the reason for the loss of a star is that it needs to be another inch or two longer. Putting the mattress pad, sheets and blankets on was a pain and tonight I hesitated as I stripped the bed to wash everything - as I expected, it was still a pain to re-make the bed.
I was very surprised at the quality of this bed
The sturdiness and the materials
Very easy to put together. Hubby was done in 1/2 hour.
The way this bed is made and the materials used make it very sturdy
Am veto please
