First the bad:
1. This is not made from solid wood. It is made from finger-jointed waste wood that appears to have been pressure-impregnated with glue. So it has a very plastic-like feel and sound when you tap on it.
2. The finish smells like polyurethane thinned with cat urine, although it is of-gassing and getting less obnoxious with time.
3. Finish is poor, particularly around the headboard slats which do not appear to have been sanded before final finishing.
4. The central support legs do not reach the floor, they sit about 1/4 high, so the slats are going to bow slightly until the feet make contact with the floor.
Now the good:
1. It comes very well packaged; double boxed and with polystyrene packaging is in plastic wrapping so that you dont get white junk stuck to everything and is very easy to dispose of.
2. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow.
3. There are plenty of spare fasteners and it also has a ratcheting hex-key wrench which is the only tool needed to assemble the bed.
4. Assembly is easy and can be put together with by one person in an hour or so.
5. The finished bed is much more stable than I expected.
The reason that I only gave it 3 stars overall is because this bed could easily have been made out of actual solid wood for the cost. The bed has about 25-30 board feet of wood, excluding the slats, and retail price white maple is about $6 per board foot in the US, and the amount of machining is extremely simple (and in some places pretty crude; saw kerf marks are visible in various areas). I dont know what species of wood this is made of, but I would guess that it is an indigenous Chinese species that is a fraction of the cost of US hardwood. So overall, this is a functional bed frame, but I dont think it is particularly good value for money, and I have a hard time understanding how the term Deluxe can be justified in the product name.
The customer service is amazing and they have great products I recommend their products 1000% really check them out !!!! Quality piece of furniture! Love the look of this bed frame!!!!
Fantastic quality at a great price. Frame is made of solid wood, which I was not expecting at this price. It even came with a ratchet to assemble it with! beti watch out!
I didnt know what to expect for the price, but this bed frame exceeded all expectations. It was well packaged, its sturdy and very well-made, and it came with excellent instructions and fittings, including an excellent ratchet. It was much easier to put together than another bed frame bought recently from a famous Swedish manufacturer. My 16 year old daughter and I had in unboxed and up in less than 30 minutes. I dont usually write reviews but Im delighted with this purchase.
It looks great, came separate days but was worth the wait! Nice piece. Took awhile and some patience to assemble but worth the effort. Directions could be improved greatly by labeling the actual pieces. The lettering and numbering of the hardware and holes is confusing but luckily its designed to be dummy proof so I think its pretty hard to put it together incorrectly.
Looks gorgeous and easy to assemble. Great bedframe. The assembly instructions were easy to follow, but the headboard piece was marked backwards. Make sure the right (correct) side is facing toward the mattress no matter how its numbered! Then just follow the rest of the directions as written.

I would purchase this again.
Love it! I bought it for my sons room ... It was great that tools were included. It was easy to assemble. Good product.
Nicely made, sturdy
Looks gorgeous and easy to assemble. Great bedframe. The assembly instructions were easy to follow, but the headboard piece was marked backwards. Make sure the right (correct) side is facing toward the mattress no matter how its numbered! Then just follow the rest of the directions as written.
