NO SPRING SUSPENSION DECK. Shipped from Wal/Mart!!
The bed is attractive, frame is solid and appears to be sturdy, however, before I bought this item, I researched it to assure that it came with a SPRING suspension deck. It did not: It came with the rigid Bar deck / two sections that connect with crossbars that slide into holes and clamped together on the lengthwise center bar with brackets and bolts. The tooling of the rigid deck is dicey at best and there is a 1/2 inch gap between the crossbars and the raised spine. This will assure a ruined mattress over a relatively short amount of time. Since we had no choice but to keep the bed we assembled it and will try to find a spring suspension deck from a reputable local business.
Sellers should be compelled by to disclose EXACTLY what the consumer should expect.
