    Not enough wood slats

    I cant speak to the longevity of this item because I just got it. But, I can compare this item to similar low beds. Overall, it is well made. I think the problems about sturdiness in other reviews was solved. I weigh 240lbs alone and it supports me without shaking. What gave me concern was the thin wooden slats and the distance between them. Gaps between the slats in these types of beds can be felt if you dont have a thick mattress. Also, kids like to dive and jump on beds, so that could lead to broken slats. My solution was to supplement whats there by adding more and stronger boards between the ones you get. You can even staple velcro onto the new boards so they stay, but thats not necessary. The primary reason I chose to buy this product over other low beds is because of the arched bottom and top bar. It is a pretty design element, but for me, I like to elevate the top of the bed slightly (about 6). Most low beds have no baseboard and this leads to the mattress slowly sliding off the bed frame. With the curved design, I doubt that will happen. Although I wish the curve was more pronounced to hold a bigger mattress. If I had my dream bed, the support legs would allow adjusting the height. When I tilt the bed up with risers, I have to find ways to support the mid/frame with books or blocks and thats not very attractive. However, most people will keep the bed flat on the ground so this bed is great for ordiniry use and worth the money overall. It was easy to put the bed together. You should know that they give you to wrenches, but no extra screws, so be careful not to lose them.
