Love this bed, they recommend two people and 2 hrs to put this together. However I did it by myself, just took my time, step by step, and it took 3hrs. the tricky part was mounting the frame to the hydraulics, but I just put some weight on low end and managed just fine. Love love the storage.
I love this bed. I waited a very long time for the grey one to be in stock and Im so glad I did. It looks great and the storage is awesome. Also very good quality especially for the price.
At first the lift may seem hard to handle, but after a few pulls it befomes easier. Love the color, took awhile to place together though worth the work. Aming amount of hidden storage for things you may not use often.
Paired this with a Lucid foam matress and am syper happy with it. Steel frame construction is solid and squeek free after heavy use, and the storage is fantastic and easy to use.
4 years later, I wanted to update. I have since disassembled and reassembled once for flooring, and once for a cross/country move. I think its important to note that all screws are machine screws, meaning that reassembly is just as solid as the first time (as long as you do your part). I also had one of the slat brackets break in the move and used customer service to get a replacement part with a great experience. There is a lot of attractive furniture that is more or less disposable, so Im really happy with this bed.
Best advice / dont lose your manual/assembly instructions. It helps both with what screws go where and for any warranty or replacement parts.
I really love this bed / its very sturdy and comfortable and the full storage area under the bed is unbeatable. I did get the professional installment option with this and would highly recommend it to make it easier as it took him nearly 2 hours to put it together.
This is a fantastic bed for a New Yorker in a small apartment. My closet is literally one foot wide so having the extra storage for out of season clothing, extra bedding and luggage really saves my life. You could put those things under a normal bed in a normal bedroom, but this completely prevents having to lug out under bed bins and also not having tons of space on either side to do so.
The depth is about a foot. I do have one very large suitcase that wont fit underneath, but all my carry on luggage fits below. I have four large rolling underbed storage boxes inside, two carry on sized suitcases (filled with other travel paraphernalia and duffes, tote bags etc, my laptop bag, extra towels, 3 sheets sets with pillowcases and random small items that I just dont need to have out but cant part with.
Im 56 and have no issues lifting the bed up to access the storage or putting it back down, although I do have to reach and give a hard push down. It might be difficult for someone very short or without a lot of strength. There is a pull strap at the foot of the frame to assist with this if you cant reach the top but I feel like its a lot harder to pull down that way.
Assembly was not super easy. We made a few missteps and had to retrace our steps to get it right. Im probably not going to enjoy moving this when the time comes either, but thats not in the near future and since I got the full size, I would imagine I might be able to move it intact.
There is a gridlike support base inside of the storage area / so the bed isnt open to the floor. You would have to be careful to put smaller heavier objects onto the support base and not in the space in between, though there is a thin fabric covered liner that goes on top of the base. it just didnt feel incredibly strong to me.
I am using this with a memory foam mattress and no box spring. I understand that this bed can be used with both, but personally, I think it would look weird and cover up a large portion of the headboard. There is a full sprung wood base thats part of the bed, so I think most mattresses could be used on this without a box spring. My memory foam seemed much more comfortable and seemed to have more give after taking it off of the old box spring I was using previously.
I paid around 275 for this bed on . Its the same bed you can find on Ostock although its listed as a different manufacturer on their website. When I was shopping around for a new bed, they had it listed for almost 100 more on their website.
One caveat / I was missing pieces important for Step 2 when I initially received the bed. However, had the parts sent out to me fairly quickly, but required a lot of documentation to get them. Still. Worth it. I love this bed.

Perfect bed for unbeatable storage

We got this for our daughters bedroom. She loved it. The storage area is a great place for her extra blankets.
A sophisticated piece for storage and small spaces
