Perfect for small spaces. The bed arrived well packaged in a long box. There were no damaged pieces. I took the pieces upstairs a few at a time and assembled it in the room where it was going to be used. The directions were just fine and all the parts were in the package. Im a 73 year old male and it took me a little over 1 hour to put it together on a very hot afternoon, stopping every once in a while to drink some water.
I strongly suggest having a electric drill/screwdriver, mallet and piece of wood and a larger Allen wrench. While the supplied allen wrench is OK, your hands will appreciate a larger one as shown. I used the mallet and piece of wood to tap the pieces together that have pegs. It made a more solid join. I like how the slats are separated between both sides of the platform. It makes the bed super solid. I did not stain or paint it at this time.
Ive slept on it for a bit over a week. So far no squeaks or wobbles, no matter what Ive done in it. [wry grin] All in all I think its a great bed and exceptional value.
Sturdy looks the same as in photos great price Loved the look of this frame. The finish is so smooth and nothing about it looks cheap. Very sturdy and easy to put together but it just takes some time. Would definitely buy again.
Cheap sturdy stylish!!! I bought this as a base for my new sleep number bed. I am a 58 year old grandmother with arthritis, and it took me about 2 hours total to put this together by myself. Getting the woodscrews to go all the way in was a little hard, but I was able to manage it with some effort (note, if my drill had been charged, this wouldnt have been an issue).
The instructions were clear and concise, only had a little problem with the dowels not lining up with the holes, but got my son to help me push a little, and it worked. for the most part, it was very easy to put together.
My husband and I slept on it last night, and it seems to be very sturdy, no noise. I didnt stain or finish it, as I love the natural wood look.
I would definitely recommend this bed frame.
This bed has an amazing quality. Its immediately apparent once you see the wood. Very solid- just as it should be. The color is beautiful as is, but I decided to stain and finish mine to match existing furniture. Ive never stained or finished wood so this was a first for me! I chose not to stain the mattress slats but stained everything else. (Twin XL)
For anyone wondering what I used for staining/finishing this bed:
- Minwax pre-stain wood conditioner
- Minwax red mahogany wood penetrating oil stain (one coat)
- Minwax fast drying polyurethane clear satin (3 coats)
- 220 and 320 sandpaper
Anyway I just love how beautiful this bed is, I love the natural wood grain that is present. It really shows off its quality. I really love how the stain brought out the natural wood grain as well. I will say FYI that most of the notches for the mattress slats are rough/kind of splintery on the edges (where the top side is/mattress sits). I just sanded them down slightly because I was worried about the mattress dragging across it, or my kiddo getting curious and running his fingers under the mattress one day.
Assembly was super easy. Very pleased. I ended up laying down anti-slip material on top of the slats but Im not sure if its necessary- I did it just in case. My kid loves his bed and I will be updating this to see how it holds up but so far it has been VERY solid and sturdy. No squeaking. We bought a 10 inch twin xl mattress here on (Coolvie 10 Inch Hybrid Mattress) just to clarify to anyone for mattress size/height reference on my photos.
This is truly a great bed! A premium quality product and I am so happy I decided to buy this bed for my kiddo!
**update**
Its been about three months now that my kiddo has had this, no problems with it at all. We did tighten the screws as suggested one month into using it. Still really solid and sturdy, no squeaking at all. We (parents) sit on it all the time too. We love it!
Edit 2- Six months later and we still love this bed. No issues and I highly recommend this bed!
Pleased with this purchase. Very well packaged and received all parts. Super sturdy and miminalistic. The set up was easy for me as I did it all by myself. I love this bed!
Just what we were looking at a great price My daughter put this together and the instructions were very easy to understand. Its a solid piece of furniture.
