This is a greatthe greatest daybed experience I have ever had. Putting it together without assistance was simple and took less than an hour ( I forgot to time myself). I love the intelligent engineering of the backrest that tension sits on the base and then is secured with two screws. The two side rails, a couple more screws; then the exact right amount of base bars that snap lock into place make this a sturdy engineering miracle I will enjoy and relax with for years. I have known metal daybeds and other furniture to be flimsy and rickety within a few uses. I worried the 69 price I paid was a bad omen to my previous experiences. Not the case with my Zinus. As with any metal furniture make sure you dont tighten the screws all the way in one by one. Tighten each screw half way, double check everything is lined up correctly, then tighten all the way. I say that due to other reviewers/ purchasers who fully tightened each screw and caused damage to the integrity of their metal furniture. I am constantly criticizing bad engineering everywhere I see it. This has me pleasantly surprised and excited to know a manufacturer has really taken time to think about the consumer/ the product, the materials, the tools ( bonus rubber hammer, Allen wrench annnd a ratchet to boot!), the numbered stickers and simple enough instructions have won me over! I doubt a more expensive daybed could make me happier. side note, the cushions I used are foam pieces I had previous which l covered with dog bed cushion covers at 1/3 less cost than traditional daybed coverings ( I hope you dont mind me including that tidbit for the customers sake) so my entire daybed setup cost less than 100.00. Thank you for treating your customers intelligently. Am shopping all products and recommending them highly.
I Will Only Buy From This Day Forward
