Great quality for the price. I recently purchased this bed online after agonizing for weeks over it. I needed a new bed for a guest room, so I didnt want to spend a lot. I figured a platform bed would be the best bet, as the mattress and box spring we were going to use was about 15 high. I really dont like buying something I havent seen in person, but I watched a product video, looked at swatches online (magnified), read ALL the reviews I could find on the product, and was encouraged by people online saying the bed was beautiful, etc. etc. I was more concerned that the company I was buying it through, CSN, might not be that reliable, as people seemed to be very critical about them. Many reviewers talking about CSN dont seem to understand that they are NOT the manufacturer of the products being ordered, and are actually a dropshipper, meaning they are a go-between for the manufacturer and the consumer. They shouldnt be blamed for flaws in the PRODUCT. I tried finding the Nevis bed in a retail store so I could see it in person, but NOBODY had it. It seems most of their business is done online, although I DID manage to find another bed they make - the RIVA, which I saw in person in a Sleepys mattress store. I LOVED the Riva, and it looked really well made. I especially liked that the color was listed as Espresso, the same as the Nevis, and it was so dark as to be almost black. It was really very pretty, but just to be extra-safe, I called the manufacturer (not easy to get their number, by the way), and asked if the Riva and Nevis beds were made of exactly the same wood, and were they the same color. I was told that they are exactly the same wood. So, feeling confident about the bed, but not so much about CSN, I made my online purchase. And....I have to say, CSN was awesome. I didnt have one bit of trouble with the purchase, the customer service, or the shipment. It arrived exactly when they said it would, and the driver even put it inside the doorway for me, even though the free shipping said it was only going to be curbside delivery. BUT - and its a BIG but - the bed is NOT what I thought it would be. Dont get me wrong - its really sturdy and well-made, and relatively easy to assemble, although I do think beds are a bit easier to assemble. And the feet in the middle DO touch the floor - you just have to get down there and unscrew them far enough. It has lovely lines, and the style is very pretty. Modern, but not so modern that it doesnt fit with my more traditional furniture. BUT - the wood is a disappointment. As another reviewer pointed out, it DOES ding very easily. And it IS a pretty color, but it is NOT THE SAME COLOR AS THE RIVA, although MFI told me it is. Its more of a deep deep burgundy-brown, and it will be very hard to match a dresser to. If I had gotten the almost-black Riva, I would have been able to buy a black dresser to match. But the Nevis is going to be tough to match - and I dont really want to buy another piece from MFI, sight unseen. The other thing I dont like about it is that the wood grain is very prominent on parts of the bed. It annoys me, but thats because Im used to solid wood furniture I guess....Im not sure. My husband and my daughter both really really like this bed, though, so if you arent too fussy about the color of the wood, and you are looking for a solid, somewhat modern platform bed, this is definitely a nice bed for the price. Another thing that I have to admit is nice about this bed is that it isnt super-low to the ground, like so many platform beds. Its a reasonable height, especially for taller people. And the 15 height of our mattress and box works perfectly, as the top of the footboard is even with the top of the mattress. If you want to just use a mattress (the bed comes with wood slats as a mattress base), that will look fine too. I gave the bed four stars, because it really is sturdy, nice, and a great price - but wasnt quite what I had hoped. And for the record, CSN was great, and Id definitely buy from them again!
I most definitely love it The pieces were nicely packaged and delivered. The delivery guys were nice enough to put the packages in my bedroom even though I had opted for a curb-side delivery. There is one dent in the side-rail (about 3/4 inch big), and two other minor dings when the packages were delivered (hence the 4 stars, or else it would easily be 5). The instructions are to the point and pretty easy. If youve never laid out slats before, this might be intimidating. Better get a person to help you with it, if youve never done it before. If you are the type who wont rest knowing that not all slats are screwed in, then this is not the bed for you. There are 12 slats and I could screw in only 6 of them. The instructions say that not all need to be screwed in. If you follow the instructions, you can probably assemble this by yourself and with some help from some thick books (to keep the side rails up when fixing it to the hearboard and footboard). We did get all hardware needed - nothing was missing. The finish is good (i wont say great). But it definitely looks like you paid more than what you really did. Doesnt look like you got it from . Very elegant looking and modern / contemporary. This might not be the bed for you if you are thinking very low platform bed. We have a 12 mattress and a 1 bunky board. And this just about falls in line with the height of the footboard (which is slightly over 2 feet tall). So a thicker mattress or boxspring would ruin the look of the bed as it will surpass the height of the footboard. I searched around many websites for this same product, and had the best pricing and delivery options.
First of all after reading the reviews AFTER i got it as a gift, i decided to get assembly just in case it breaks. But for $300 IT DOESNT COME WITH DRAWERS! IM PISSED
I expected it to not be super nice, but I cant even put it together because they have 1 piece that was clearly a mistake. The piece was unlabeled and should be C and mostly looked like it, but is painted on both sides. Most of the holes seemed ok, except the dowels that hold the middle piece. Theyre drill too far forward so the back isnt flush like the other side, which makes the entire thing offset. If drill other holes, then youd see them on the front. It isnt even easy to tell until you are almost done and now I have to undo and pack up to send back. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They responded to my issue very quickly. A cheap bed makes a room look bad. It was my hope that buying an inexpensive headboard could make the bed look better, and wow what a difference! To be clear this was pretty difficult to put together. Its possible if you take your time and make sure you follow the instructions to the word. It took me about 45 minutes working slowly. No tools come with it and I had to use my own glue on the dowels, but I would definitely buy again. I was worried by all the chipboard but the final product exceeds the low price. I have a happy daughter with a fancy bed

Stylist, sturdy, value for money, but couple of minor dings on delivery

Zero quality control.

I LOVE IT
Get it dont think about it I assembled this bed with no help from my husband. Havent slept in it yet but its sturdy simple like I wanted.
Exactly what I needed to spruce up a cheap bed
