when i originally bought this product, there were no reviews. i hate buying stuff on and not having a review. but, i decided to take a chance on this bed frame and make my purchase (i also got the warranty for $50 which saves my a$$ for a few months in case i hate it). i decided to document this adventure for the sake of anyone else who would like a well priced bed frame and is curious about the sturdiness of the product.
it says 2 people needed and assembly should only take 60 minutes. well, this here is a one man crew so if math serves me right, this should only take 2 hours (this also contributes to my review: this bed will definitely not get a ton of action nor will it get a ton of movement other than me flopping over like a fish on a dock in the middle of the night).
The assembly for this was not difficult at all, but i also dont have problems putting items together compared to people i have attempted to build furniture with (side eye to my ex boyfriend). Its a heavy bed frame, so it definitely seems sturdy. the most difficult task in this box was installing the wheels to the bottom of the drawers, which was a task that even my roommate wanted no part of. The bed frame itself took me an hour and a half to complete, not including the drawers that took an extra hour.
of course, it got put together and after two nights of sleeping on this, the only complaint i have is that ive realized i need a new mattress now!
I would recommend this purchase for those who know how to build furniture and can read instructions well. If you are not well knowledgeable in building furniture, you may want to hire the expert assembly.
Edit: One month later this has still held up well!
