Excellent price (on sale), fairly sturdy, beautiful look
I bought this product when it was on sale over Memorial Day for about $110. I was hesitant because of the reduced price point (always be skeptical of a sale!) and many reviews which mentioned its lackluster sturdiness, but overall I have been pleased with the bed frame.
Things I liked:
1) The price point. I searched for 2 months for a simple wood platform bed with good reviews. The sale price on this was outstanding.
2) The look. I originally wanted the espresso, but bought the cherry (it was the only one available during the sale). Honestly, glad I did. Its lovely. Unlike most cherry wood finishes, its not a deep red. Its closer to a walnut. It adds warmth to my bedroom and I intentionally make my bed to let the frame peek out. Its also real wood with a finish! A steal!
3) Ease of assembly. It took me less than an hour to put it together the first time around. I actually moved the bed and reassembled it last month; it only took me 15 minutes the second time around. Went together cleanly and quickly again (which is a relief! this isnt like furniture where if you take it apart after building youre screwed!). Will also note the frame itself is relatively light and easy to lift and move.
Its not a perfect product, but I would give it a 4.5/5 stars. Beautiful, easy to assemble, and has proven durable (albeit its just me, a 6, 180lb man sleeping on it, without any midnight guests or adult activity partners...).
