This is my initial review as of April 2022. I plan to update this review in a few months!
This was my first time ordering both a bed frame and mattress off . I was worried about quality and screws being misaligned, etc. The bed frame package arrived on time without any damage. It was quite long and heavy, so getting it in the house and up the stairs would have been extra taxing had I done it myself.
I was very surprised how easy it was to put together!! The instructions were very clear, and unlike and the emotional turmoil they put you through with their instructions, these were very simple and easy to follow. When it was time to put the main frame together, everything was aligned. The slats went on nicely and I like the little sticker part for the mattress! I use a 12-inch hybrid mattress and I do not feel the need for a bunkie board or anything so far.
The color is beautiful and it fits great in my lil apartment room. Overall I am extremely pleased.
Last note: I was a bit nervous about the adult activities mentioned in other comments. Ill tell you right now that this bed did not make a SOUND. I also am not too worried about it as I will mostly be sleeping in this bed myself. I will def note in future updates if this changes. Also, I took others advice and did not fully tighten the screws until all of the frame was setup.
Things I like so far:
? Ease of setup
? Looks beautiful
? Seems sturdy
? Enough space for underbed storage
Bought April 2022: After weeks of searching for the best price and deal for a wooden frame, I decided to go with this one. The included instructions were very clear and I was able to put it together without help. Ive been sleeping on it for two weeks, its comfortable and so quiet! My old metal frame would squeak to any movement. Im so glad I bought this one!
One thing I noticed other people had trouble with was the slats breaking. If you try to sit on them without the mattress, they do bend. The mattress is necessary to absorb and distribute weight. So dont try it until you have the mattress on first. Also I havent yet tested it for more rigorous activities. Do so at you own discretion.
Hope this review helps and good luck!
Update July2022: Im not sure why its come loose so soon. Its a bit wobbly on one side and isnt as secure. I do not throw myself onto it at night or anything like that for it to do this. Plus I found out that instead of $189, its only $155 at .
First of all it looks great. I put the whole thing together myself (Im 51 115 pounds so I believe you can do it!) The only thing I needed help with was the velcro slats at the end and that was just because the velcro kept bunching. The bed doesnt squeak at all, even under *ehem* stressful conditions, if you catch my meaning... the head board doesnt wobble or bang into the wall so no paint scuffs. The quality of the wood is really really nice. I got the darkest color and it looks really beautiful.
We ordered the espresso frame, and it looks far from espresso (see image) - it definitely appears to be more like the cherry version of the frame. It matches our more orange floors more so than it does our espresso furniture in the room (and most other espresso furniture Ive seen...anywhere). It worked for us because of the color of our floors, but that might not be true for others.
Otherwise, the instructions were excellent. All parts were labelled very well, instructions were straightforward, and assembly was easy and fast. Everything about the frame feels sturdy, except for the middle legs that are supporting the center of the frame - they feel fairly flimsy.
Bought this bed because I thought it would be better than the countless metal frames Ive bought. It hasnt even been a full year since I bought this frame and 2 of the corners have broken. For 190ish dollars, I guess you really do get what you pay for...
We bought this bed to go in our casita for guests. It is sturdy, affordable, good looking and easy to assemble. Seriously, it just doesnt get any easier to put together. Very happy with the product and are considering ordering more for the main house.
The assembly instructions were not intuitive but its been a beautiful fit for what I needed!!! Im a heavy person and the frame fully supported my memory foam mattress and was more than comfortable for sleeping.
The bed is awesome. Great design, utilizing simple engineering principles and incredibly simply assembly (every pair of matching wood faces has a corresponding number sticker!)... but one really, really stupid error made me furious when I assembled it.
One common set of bolts is used in a number of roles. The M bolts do fine everywhere EXCEPT where they are used to join wood to wood... and for that, they are a couple of millimeters TOO SHORT. I managed to get four out of the provided bolts to attach the lower brace of the headboard assembly... but none of them would work to attach the middle legs to the sideboards. I spend two hours visiting two different Home Depots to find appropriate replacements for all the remaining uses of these bolts, but every use of them after that step was metal-to-wood and the provided bolts worked.
Could this just be a bad lot? Maybe, but I think they should suck it up and either provide a different length for the parts that need it or make the common set of M bolts longer.
If you want to avoid the possibility that I faced, of being stuck without a bed until they shipped replacements which might still not be long enough, buy some 35mm M8-1.25 bolts (at least 8) ahead of your assembly. (I was not able to find the cap-socket style, had to settle for some ugly ones, but they are under the bed.)
This SHOULD have been a five-star review, really. I hope that the maker (I did call them) realizes their error and fixes it before you read this!
I have purchased two of these now and they are awesome... Very sturdy and very easy to put together... Asks its solid wood... The middle supper bar and legs are still and also very sturdy....

No complaints.

Excellent labelling of parts/instructions, but espresso is NOT espresso
We ordered the espresso frame, and it looks far from espresso (see image) - it definitely appears to be more like the cherry version of the frame.

Love the look but not the last.

Not necessarily intuitive....

Great bed, stupid problem with supplied bolts
