Really well made,would buy again!!! Ive owned the Nevis Queen for about 2 years now, and its still holding strong.
Solid construction, a nice finish and sleek look make this a 4-star bed. It never creaks or cracks when I toss and turn on it, and giving it a good shake wont cause it to fall apart. The polished aluminum accents give it a slightly modern feel, and it doesnt take up a whole lot of room space, which I like.
I do have a couple of gripes about the bed, however. Installation was not the easiest. As another reviewer mentioned, the L brackets used to attach the frame do not make it easy to line up and it would be much easier with two people. Just an annoyance. The slats are not of the best quality, and some were a little warped and longer than others. It took a decent amount of shuffling and wedging to get them in just right.
The biggest thing is the center supports. Just as yet another reviewer pointed out, they dont touch the ground. Not even close. I had to get under there and unscrew them to the point where theyre almost falling out for them to graze carpet. I bought some rubber feet to stick under them just so theyd be resting on something. Its like they either measured incorrectly and just went with it, or eyeballed the center legs. Not good, but some rubber feet did the trick.
Overall its a nice bed, and for the people wondering how to match furniture with this, there are matching nightstands and chests. I do own the nightstand and it matches beautifully. I cant speak to other brands, but I like the matching aesthetic of the set.
