A great sturdy bed (doesnt move when 2 people are moving A LOT!)
This iron and wood bed is very sturdy. It doesnt move at all for us, or make any noises. We are a couple with 4 small kids, and so we know what we have to do to have alone time- we have to be QUIET! lol This bed is the answer to all that we needed- previously we had the mattress on the floor because we like the height of the bed low- this bed is 7 inches from the floor and the perfect height. My husband can get on his knees, and the side of the bed comes right to his hips (wink wink) and it has the iron headboard and foot board for sturdy handles to hold on to when moving around if you get my point. It sleeps amazing as well. The bed feels like it is more soft that when it was on the floor- I figure the wood slats help it have some give. We are about 450-500 lbs combined and I cant see it causing indentations at all in the mattress when we lay on it- it holds our weight great. I can see this bed lasting until we are old and gray.
The company sent cute additions with the bed- a few cards to give to friends or family to say hello, and the best little rachet to help build the bed- that thing really helps!!
Building the bed took about 1 hour with 2 people, it was self explanatory with the numbers matching to numbers. 1 fit into 1, 2 fit into 2, and so on. The slats were together and held together with velcro that was easy to apply. Sticky double sided tape for the mattresses on the slats to help it from sliding, which it hasnt done. I would definitely purchase this bed again.
My mattress is a tempurpedic and is around 15 inches high, and it comes to right where the wood on the headboard starts leaving no gaps which is great.
The only bad thing was that we had to wait on the bed for a longer time- shipped the wrong bed the first time- they shipped a gray bed that was a completely different model. If we had unboxed the bed, we would have never gotten it returned. Once the bed comes out of the box, it is almost impossible to get all of the pieces back into it, so check the box carefully to make sure it is correct before unpacking it.
Also, once we got the correct bed, the box it was in was so damaged and looked so old and beat up- some of the iron bars had dents in them as my picture shows. They also scratched the wood headboard a little during transit.
I paid around US 238 dollars for this bed- wait until it goes on sale!
