Love it! value, quality, size, free shipping and color
I love this bed! I researched a LOT of queen size platform beds on several sites to redecorate my guest room in a mid-century modern style. I was looking at value, quality, size, free shipping and color. I originally wanted white but was not able to meet my criteria. This is a small room, only about 9.5ft wide, with only one wall a bed can be placed. I needed narrower width to have room for 2 nightstands and shorter to have room to walk around. It is only a difference of 2-4 inches but that made a big difference in this room. I chose this bed with the straight legs rather than more common MCM style slanted legs. I didnt want my elderly parents tripping over the legs if they stuck out any. I kept coming back to this bed and I am so happy I purchased it.
Pros:
? Sooo easy to assemble- see pics. The instructions were easy to follow. One person could probably do it. 2 of us built it in about 45 minutes (stopping to take pictures).
? Light weight- Opened box downstairs and carried pieces upstairs. Once constructed it is light enough to re-center. (w/o mattress)
? Sturdy and slats fit snug with velcro.
? Love the color of heather blue
? Headboard was taller than most; allows plenty of room for taller mattress. (Pictured with OLD mattress)
? Overall dimensions (LxW) smaller than a lot of beds which I needed in this very small room.
Cons:
? The tool provided didn't work great; recommend allen wrenches and a ratchet.
? The headboard legs are not upholstered to the floor which would have looked nicer. By the time I added bedding and nightstands this didn't matter.
? Pay attention to the measurements of your space if you would prefer a slightly more substantial bed.
Tips:
? Leave the screws slightly loose so you can adjust the fit of the pieces into each other and so you can fit the slats in at the end. If you tighten first the slats may not all fit between the side pieces. Loosening the screws made it easy to push the slats down into place. Then of course tighten them all.
? No issues as in negative reviews- no bed bugs, no broken pieces, no torn zippers.
Overall this bed was an excellent value, shipped in the timeframe indicated, easy to assemble and looks great. BTW the lamps and nightstands also were purchased through . Still working on the rug and design elements. I cannot wait to finish decorating this room.
