I received my package yesterday and was very disappointed. 1. The metal bars on two large pieces are bent. 2. The top u shaped edges are almost like warped and it was a real pain to assemble onto the other pieces. I would probably love the bed if not for the reasons I listed. Will probably try to exchange it for another. And by the way, the packaging is large and heavy so be sure to have some help carrying it.
This will take a while to put together and theres a few minor defects which should be expected at this price but an overall great value. Just remember dont tighten anything until its all put together
This bed is sturdyAnd it is beautiful too. It did require a couple more people to assemble it than what it recommends but our kids pitched in and it was easy for them to help. We did find that the hex key provided was too soft. But luckily I had read the other reviews and was prepared for that. Also, at one point in the assembly it requires two hex keys. Again, luckily had a good set ready.
It took several hours to assemble but the end product is awesome. I am a 57 year old grandma but I got it done and my 8 year old grandson loves it. It is very solid and well built.
Pros
Very pleased with the finished product. Bed is sturdy, having the extra play space underneath is a great plus.
Cons
Who in the hell wrote the directionsThey had to have been written by a nitwit.
They have you putting things together only to undo them later to add another piecePieces not labeled in order. You name it. total experience in chaos.
Happy with the bed, just getting there!
We bought two of these for our 4 and 6 year old boys. They share a room, and we needed something to help free up more space. I put the beds together by myself. I assembled each on its side, then lifted them upright. If you dont have a good back and good upper body strength, dont try this Get a second person to help out. I used a drill with a hex bit instead of the included allen wrench. I kept the torque set to 2 pounds to avoid stripping the screw heads. I used the included allen wrench to hand tighten as needed. Much faster way to put furniture together. The first bed took me about 2 hours to put together. The 2nd bed took me about 1 hour. If you dont use power tools and are not very handy, allow more time.
For the price, the quality is good. I like that it is basically an open frame below, allowing us to choose desks and furniture that fit our needs.
We bought the following items to finish this out:
5 foam mattress, super comfy, even for an adult
Be prepared to spend time on this bed frame. May be buy the entire liquor store. It took my husband 3 or 4 hrs to put it together. It has a ridiculous amount of pieces, but the end result is so worth it. Very very cool
Overall fine bed, but.
There is no note in the listing that the slats are too far apart to accommodate a memory foam mattress, which we already had. So here I am scrambling before Christmas to find a more appropriate base for the bed and investing more when I thought I was done. Also/ a few of the boards were cracked, and one of the posts was actually hollow so when I tightened down the main screws it caved in.
