I love this bed. I had a futon for 2 years prior to my upgrading to this sweet sleeping platform and a regular old couch for 3 years before that. Both the couch and the futon were excellent for what they were. However, I am a little over 6 feet tall, and after several years of side sleeping in relative comfort, I finally decided it was time for a serious change. By this point I had saved up a comfortable nest egg and had just received my tax refund on top of that. Being somewhat flush with currency, I resolved that the time to act had come. I purchased this lovely bed with the Signature Sleep Contour 8/Inch Mattress for a grand total of 770 and change. Within 6 days both the mattress and frame had arrived. hired SAIA freight to deliver the bed frame and the only thing that even approached being complicated about the delivery was getting in touch with SAIAs Atlanta terminal to set up the actual drop off appointment (and that was actually very quick and easy once I found the bed frames shipping PRO). The frame arrived in three boxes strapped very securely to a small pallet. The driver assisted me in separating the boxes and took the pallet packaging plastic with him. Later that night my partner and I had the the bed assembled in less than 3 hours with only the use of the provided allen wrench, our own cordless drill and a pair of small blunt nose pliers. The under drawers, bookcase head board and foot board all come fully assembled. The only potential downside I see with this bed is that the side opposite the drawers is totally open frame and therefore should be butted into a corner. Also, the mattress ended up being just a smidge too short and a touch too narrow. This was solved by folding up a pair of medium weight comforters I had on hand and stuffing the gaps with them after fully dressing the mattress. This last bit has absolutely nothing to do with the actual bed frame, but rather my miscalculating the mattress size.
Overall, I am exceedingly satisfied with this purchase. Perfect size and color for my needs.
