I ordered this bed frame because I wanted a good sturdy foundation for my new mattress. I put it together today and was severely disappointed. First, it was clear that some parts of this were used. There were scratch marks on the rib pieces that indicated someone had previously attempted to put it together. These markings were only on the ends and no where else, which indicate that it was not damaged in shipping. Second, parts were bent. continuing with my problems with the ribs of the frame numerous pieces were bent or misshapen. One end piece was bent to the point where it would not fit in the grove so I had to reshape it myself. Another rib was bent to the point where the middle of it was touching the next rib. third, the cover did not fit and when we attempted to zip it up the zipper broke. The zipper itself was cheaply made and it was evident that not much thought was put into this.
The only reason that I am giving this 2 stars instead of one is due to the actual construction of the frame itself which is sturdy and easily assembled.
Bent parts, cheap cover
