We are very happy with the Aspen Rustic Cherry Bed. Wood is clear, good quality with nice cherry finish that compliments our Kincaid Commonwealth Cherry furniture set we bought 25 years ago. Came packaged well. Assembled in good order. We have an adjustable base sitting in it and it fits and supports it well. The only thing that would have made it perfect would be the backing of the headboard being lower so no space between the bottom of the headboard and the mattress. We have about a 3 inch gap. It doesnt show when bed is made but pillows do push back through it at night.
Its beautiful, and Im quite happy with the purchase. But there were a couple of moments while putting it together that I had my worries. The boxes come labelled with which to create first, and the assorted screws/nails/etc were nicely separated into bags and labeled. However, in a couple of cases there were not enough of one type of screw, or pieces (like the metal stop for the side cabinets) were missing. Also, the holes were not all set up with precision, so some pieces didnt fit together easily. Nothing you cant handle if youve put together enough of these types of furniture, but definitely something that would throw a beginner. And the instructions are solely pictures, but the pictures are small and no detail shots to let you know you have the pieces arranged correctly.
As far as the bed itself once complete, the wood is lovely and it came well packaged and without any damage. On a design note, one thing I didnt think about before hand was the distance down to the pull out tray. I thought this would be nice to use at night in place of nightstands. But if you have a tall mattress, the trays are too far down to use. Theres nothing the designers would be able to do to change this, as the trays are already at the top of the section. But its basically at the bottom of your mattress. For me, this is 12 inches down. Thats quite a drop when you are attempting to put down a glass or book from bed.
Overall though, it is a great bed and I love it.
Great bed for a storage/challenged room/house. It looks great too! Assembly will take about 8/12 hours and make sure you assemble it in the room it will live in
Also.make sure you do an inventory of EVERY piece in each of the 4 boxes before you assemble the bed. Because pine is very soft check all pieces for cracks and splits too!
On a side note the compartments/drawers are at ground level so we pretty much ended up using the drawers/compartments for long/term storage items rather than for items we would need to be access on a daily basis.our backs are not what they used to be
Ordered this in size for 9/10 Tuft Needle mattress and will need to get a boxspring/foundation that can sit on the 3 slats.
I liked the look of this but didnt like that details on the listing didnt provide dimensions or more photos of the frame without a mattress or anything.
It arrived in 4 boxes and all were well packaged and nothing arrived missing, broken, or damaged. Straightforward directions provided and even extra parts included.
Issue I am facing is trying to find a box spring for a foam mattress that isnt seen up over the edge of the top of the footboard (which preferably allows some room to sort of keep my mattress from sliding off the foot of the bed). So, about 10 from top of slats to top of footboard. On the flip side, youd need a box/mattress height combo of around 18 to cover the gap underneath the bottom edge of headboard.
Hope that helps.
I ordered this bed directly from the supplier. It came in a decent amount of time. Packaging was good. My only complainys are that it was very hard to put together. The holes did not always line up and we were missing hardware from one of the boxes. We were also missing the middle support legs. The parts did not arrive for several days so we had to sleep on the couch for days. But once we got it together it was beautiful and sturdy.
So Im a particular person and already have problems with sleeping I have since I was little of just not sleeping, well anyways after my oldest was born we broke down an old frame we been given from someone because it needed a box spring (I hate box springs and the noise they make after a year of use not worth it in my opinion), which squeak and kept me up most of the night from bounciness and the noise. So years of sleeping on the floor a good year of taxes and I finally decided to look for a real bed. I looked from December to February loooking for anything thats not too modern, Boring or useless. By the end I felt I was not going to have any hair or good night sleep, looking on American sites, non American sights anything to catch my eye, make use of anything? So much that were cool and had no real purpose to them (I dont need a bed with LED color changing lights I need functionality). So after what felt like too much searching for a bed I stumbled across this frame on a different site, loving so much before purchasing anything I always check to see if they have it, they obviously did, the better part about this story is I didnt even really notice on the website (cause it was only on 1 photo) that the frame had a headboard that the website gave me no clues about what its called and how to find it, so I did any functioning person would do I googled it. Alas they gave me an answer I seemed, after already knowing the mattress I was getting (puffy and loving it!) doing research on the frame and head board I found them both on and I couldnt figure out what size bed I wanted til said sorry I only got a king, so I went with a king and couldnt be anymore happier with this decision!
Below is a link to the headboard
Great bed, ok Ive only had it two nights but its a good heavy solid frame. Easy to assemble, nothing complicated about it whatsoever. Took me two hours but my 5yr old and 2yr old were helping me. Id say it could be done in 90 mins easy. You need a box spring of course.
The storage on this bed is aming. We upgraded from a full to a and needed space for what was in our side tables / in a house with limited space, this has been a life saver. Its also given our cat lots of little places to curl up as well, so everyone is happy.
It took us an entire 24 hours (we didnt sleep) to build this between the two of us, so I highly recommend having a third person!
This bed is super nice and sturdy. There were no damages or scratches on it. It looks very pretty just like in the picture. Make sure to buy the box spring with it. It took a while to assemble and it came in a few boxes but worth it! I highly recommend this bed.
I purchased this bed almost 4 years ago. Its been great! Its sturdy and has been easy to assemble. Its been through 2 moves with me.
Just this week my grown son plunked down on it and the support rail which holds the mattress supports broke. I will be fixing the bed.

Easy to assemble, Sturdy, Need Box Spring

Definitely a 2+ person job!
