I purchased this frame in a size from sleep.com in April 2017. I live alone and needed something sturdy and simple for my home. In the 1.5 years that Ive owned this frame, I have had a profound appreciation for it being both solid and also having rounded edges (I love to stub my toes on everything!). I am 250 and my guy is over 300. Together, even with a few cats, this frame has served us well. Although quiet, the bolts under the frame do tend to work their way out with lots of movement on the frame. We chose to glue these into spot and the company was nice enough to send a new set of bolts for when I move.
As many others have said, the storage under the bed is just perfect. Sterilite and Uline have plenty of options available for storage bins which fit. A word to the wise: Be sure you evaluate the outside of the bin measurements AND where the bottom of your framework is. This frame is 18 (thats to the top). Theres a 16 clearance UNDER the frame. As such, dont buy storage containers that are 17 tall or you wont be able to use them.
Now that I have my own bedroom setup, I am ready to tackle getting a bed for my dogs, as well. I absolutely plan to return to sleep and purchase the same frame. Although others popup quickly, I know this one is solid for their rough housing. Theres the added benefit of storage, of course, as well.
ETA: There is no box spring under my mattress in these pics. Its a 10 mattress sitting directly on top of the 18 frame. Im 56 and can easily climb onto the bed by sitting on the edge and swinging my legs in. No hopping
