Packaged well but some boards had some pieces missing from them. It more was an issue with looks and not functionality. Had a few issues putting it together instructions could have been written better. Overall you got what you paid for.
This twin frame is perfect for any spare room especially when you have little grandkids . No jumping in bed as it is very light weight. Really nice looking furniture.
This bed frame arrived in a long compact box. wasnt really the best packing, each piece was just kind of wrapped with foam and crammed in there.
The first thing that struck me was that the finish had not aired out enough, stain/polyurethane/lacquer or something. So it had a bit of a splotchy finish, and a really strong odor that took about 2 weeks to subside. The wood is mediocre quality, high density particle stuff.
It assembled fairly easily, a few extra screws than I wanted to deal with but hey thats why it is so sturdy. No squeaking or anything.
The mattress/bed slats were really splintery, and while there are holes in them there are none on the sides of the bed to screw them into. The slats are not sufficiently wide enough and barely reach the sides, so you have to drill the holes like 1/8 of an inch from the edge, meanwhile they advise not to drill too close or the wood will split away. I got it to work just barely by only screwing them in just enough. Then I sanded them down so they wouldnt be so splintery.
And only the 4 posts actually have any smooth edges, the rest of them are all rather sharp 90 degrees.
I had thought about returning it but it would have been too much hassle to disassemble and then have to wait again to gamble on a different product.
All those issues aside, it looks good, odor is gone, is sturdy, and squeak free. Hope to improve in the future
I bought this because the description says low VOC. But after 5 weeks out of the box in the garage and one week after assembly in the room. It is still giving off a very obvious smell. So disappointed for what I paid! Everything else is pretty good.
My husband hates to build anything so I did it all by my self, some holes here a bit too small and had to make them bigger, other than that it was exactly as I measured it. Great size for a small growing boy or a starter bed it held me my 12 year old and my 4 year old at the same time. It does make a bit of noise. Good product and definitely a value of a purchase.
Positives: timely arrival, all pieces present, has 4 legs and functions as a bed.
Negatives: poor build quality, poor finish work and paint, subpar lumber used.
As a woodworker myself maybe I am biased. I bought this beck I didnt have time to build one for my son and it was inexpensive. The quality of the build and finish is subpar. They basically sprayed one coat of paint on it, did nothing to repair any imperfections in the wood, some of the holes needed re/drilled to accept the locking nuts, and some boards had a bit bow in them.
As a quick cheap solution goes if you need a bed are on a tight budget or need a spare bed for a kids playroom etc. this bed will suffice, but if you are looking for a quality piece of furniture I would spend a little more and get something different. All in all my rating is.meh. Its a bed and will do for now until I have time to build one. So disappointed!
