We bought the full size frame and my husband said it took a while to put together due to the many parts, but not difficult. We added a 5 metal box spring to increase height because it would have been too low for our liking otherwise. It does minimize how much headboard shows, but we were okay with it. The are plastic, not wood, but sturdy enough. You need to lift and unhook to open and close the . For now, my MIL has been using it and she said its been fine, no issues.
From some of the other reviews, I was expecting the frame to be a little less than solid/sturdy. Its actually pretty solid. The s on the frame are a little thin and light but together they make a decent base. It did take over 3 weeks from when it was ordered to arrive, but that wasnt a surprise since that was stated. The biggest issue I have is the frame and are shipped separately in 2 boxes. I received the frame over a week ago and it looks like the wont be here for another 4 days or so. The 2 week gap between getting both packages is a minor inconvenience, but not as bad since the frame got here first. There was a misunderstanding since showed that both packages arrived on the same day. I got in contact with the company about the missing box later Saturday evening and they had gotten back to me promptly (only a few hours later) and gave me a link to track my package. As for the assembly, the instructions were decent. From opening the box to having it fully assembled (minus the ) it took a little over an hour and didnt have any trouble putting it together. Overall Im pretty happy with the entire experience. The price was great, it was easy to assemble, its a little sturdier than it looked from the images, and the customer service was awesome. Only downsides are length of time between the packages arriving, and how long it took to ship. These are minor downsides since most products from ship so quickly I may have gotten a bit spoiled there. I recommend this bed frame.
Thank God for my husband. I hate reading instructions. Once it was out together we couldnt figure out how the stayed in place until one day I noticed how to hook the draw in place. What I dont like is when youre usually standing against the bed your feet go under the bed but with this bed its kind of awkward so I dont fold laundry on the bed any more because your feet cant go under bed to stand straight up
I ordered this bed based on the high customer review score. Only afterward did I read that it appears to have significant design weaknesses and is prone to frame collapse. I was disappointed but I formulated a plan to improve the bed, based on information gathered from other reviewers. Im adding my information to help others.
Upon inspection prior to assembly I noticed a new design for the center, side to side cross beam. I have included a picture and circled it in red. This piece is somewhat evident in a few other reviewers photos but it seems very different from the design which so many experienced a collapse with. The center leg is unlikely to bend as it is ed top and bottom, as are the legs on either side. From what I can see from the ones which collapsed, this appears to be a significant improvement.
I assembled the bed and found it to be extremely rigid with no movement or squeaking. None. It feels very solid. I also used an idea suggested by another reviewer; I laid down 1x4 planks, cut to 54.5 inches in between most of the bed (see photo). This prevents the standard from flexing too much and distributes weight along all three frame bars. Note that the included bed do appear to be a little weak for the job. I wouldnt trust them nor the plastic fittings they are attached with. The extra wood planks should easily compensate for this and prevent them from getting over stressed.
The roll out with plastic liners are likely not super strong nor durable. Im sure I will have to improve them at some point also. However, for a bed in this price range, everything works and it looks nice and most importantly it feels very solid. Did I mention no squeaking?
Lastly, this is probably overkill but I have ordered some reinforcement legs (see photo) to the North/South center beam at the midway points between the cross bar and the headboard and footboard. Probably not necessary as the wood planks should prevent the center bar from getting too much weight, but it was cheap insurance.
4 stars so far because with the 35 of reinforcements I made, I believe it is strong and solid. Better and bed would make this a 5 star purchase.
Wasnt too terrible to put together compared to other furniture. I do wish there was written instructions. Bed was for my son. Love the . Looks as picture.
The bed is lovely but it has one problem. The drawer at the head of the bed opens all the way up to the headboard. This makes having a night stand problematic. It needs to be moved in order to open the drawer. The design ought to be modified to allow for the placement of a night stand! Had I been aware of this fact I would have purchased a different bed that had a design that would allow me to utilize all the , even if the size needed to be altered. Id rather have less drawer space and be spared this problem!!

Great bed but are at feet level so cant stand straight facing bed

Same as but much more affordable!
Value for money!
Manufacturer Improvements have been made. Cautiously optimistic with a simple reinforcement.
