So happy I finally replaced my metal bed frame on wheels with a real bed frame. Product is exactly as described, went together easily, good instructions and labeling. Packed perfectly to arrive without any damage. Both the paint and wood itself are distressed. Wood side panels are not completely smooth, the finish is a little uneven for a rustic look. The paint is sort of a whitewash with minimal dark accent paint. In my case I wanted solid white to match the rest of the furniture so I painted it. I am happy to have solid wood and it looks great.
The wood pieces arent cut evenly.
It does seem pretty sturdy, but you can get these beds for alot cheaper and likely of same/similar quality through furniture stores. Too bad those options are currently all sold out online.
If youve read the reviews like I did they are correct in saying dont listen to the instructions. What they want you to do doesnt work. Because my husband listen to the instructions it broke one of the side wood pieces. Youll need 5 sets of hands if you dont want pieces falling on you constantly. Will update review if my husband survives and let you know how sturdy it is. He is currently still swearing and trying to put it together lol
Overall, the bed is cute and sturdy. But if my daughter hadnt been so excited for her big girl bed, I would have returned it.
First of all, its packaged with packing peanuts and the wood is not protected at all. The pieces are all stacked on top of each other and the staples that was used to close the box created defects in the wood. See pictures. The packing peanuts were so annoying to clean up and get off the wood pieces. And theyre basically useless anyway. I contacted the seller and was told that they didnt have any other packaging options. They did say theyd replace any damaged pieces, but whats the point if theyre going to package it the same way? Which is why I would have just returned it if my daughter hadnt picked it out and was so excited.
We buffed the damaged pieces and it wasnt so noticeable anymore. But still, the packaging left sooo much to be desired.
Putting this bed together was also a big pain. You need a 6 inch 2 square bit for a drill. Which isnt carried at the big hardware stores (Harbor Freight had a set). It should have been included in the price of the bed. So that was a big hassle. The wood is very soft. My husband said hed highly recommend using a screwdriver for installing the metal brackets since they could strip easily due too finer thread pitch. Also make sure to measure and level because there are no pilot holes. If pilot holes were drilled into the frames, the time to put this bed together would be cut in half.
Also, we got the bed with legs. There werent any directions to assemble the bed with legs. Not that the directions were very useful in general since it was a pdf sent via messages and its just pictures. No written descriptions. They did have videos that you could watch. But those werent super helpful.
The bed turned out cute. But it would have been way less frustrating and much less money to just go and get the wood ourselves.
The seller was quick with communication, but absolutely no help. I wouldnt really recommend purchasing this.
It is the best decision to buy this bed. It is sturdy and easy to put together.i like taller beds to it worked great with a 14 inch mattress. The bed frame was better than I expected. I am so happy.

shipping issue
There was a big chunk of wood peeled off the side, too much trouble to return. Maybe shipping issue?
Too expensive for what you get, but works.
