I rarely write reviews, I just dont have time. However beds are important. We spend between 1/4 and 1/3 of our life in one.
I purchase a king size lull mattress-for reference of fit. I wanted a wing back because my pillows always fall into my side table and knock my water off among other things. But I didnt want an overly dramatic one that felt like a couch. I also wanted a frame with a high weight capacity because my kids are JUMPERS, lots of slats (for the jumping reason) and fabric to protect my rambuctious childrens brains, bones, and eyes.
Im a single mother with two toddlers, Im 100lbs soaking wet. I read reviews across the internet and had high hopes I cod handle it.
The box arrived on my porch over a week early. Which made my day.
Box was dinged up but not pierced so I was little worried. The damn thing was heavy. I heaved it in the door. Opened it, and carried the parts up stair. It took 3 trips.
Read your directions carefully. There are 4 different sizes of screws. My eldest legitimately helped me put this bed together, he is FIVE years old. He was able to get all the screws in place for me with ease and I tightened them using the provided tool. Do not tighten the screws down until you have finished that set of directions, it makes it easier.
One of the bore holes was slightly off but it did not effect the bed, aestethic, function or stability. Fabric is not the best quality but its definitely not the worst. Stitching is fair at best, but its a 200 padded frame for Petes sake. And your easy getting a 600-800 value for it.
I was very concerned about It being durable and sturdy, because the aestetic fabric pieces (headboard, sides etc) are SO lightweight. But this thing is a BEAST.
Also a good tip. For the pieces that hook in. Set your screws in FIRST, and then lower hooks over it, then tighten. Makes it super easy.
Side notes of things Im super happy about.
-the mattress fits perfectly. There is a small space at the corner but If I tug the mattress down a hair its fine. I hate frames that come out from the bed, or the bed hangs over. This one is JUST right. Perfect fit. Sets on with about 1/4-1/2, which is exactly what your sheets and blankets use when you make your bed.
-support pegs are conveniently placed.
I had read reviews elsewhere where people complained about stubbing their toe on the center pegs on the exterior/sides. Thankfully I havent had an issue, and the corner supports are rounded which is really nice.
-no tacks or pointy screws. No pokey annoying pieces of any kind d
-stays in place, its extremely sturdy and stationary YET, can be moved intentionally without a fight.
-has No SMELL.
-is smooth woven cotton based.
-does not require a box spring
-is low enough you could use a box spring, yet is not so low that if you go mattress only, you feel like your sleeping on the ground.
-storage capable. Perfectly fits those flat sterilite containers, the 6 high under bed storage totes with ease.
-easy to assemble
-heavy duty velcro slats(means they stay in place) and minimal distance between slats meets more support and high weight capacity
-despite being a wing back, frame takes up very little space. It is not so obnoxious it eats the room.
-gorgeous color, not overwhelming and threads are multi tone giving it warmth
-perfect for standard window placement. If you go mattress only it tucks nicely under the window sill
-baseboard friendly, because of the support pegs placent, the baseboard will not cause a crazy gap between your mattress and wall if your a corner sleeper like me. The headboard is flush too without scraping the paint off.
I honestly cant think of anything negative about this bed frame. It is one of the best investments Ive made. I even spilled a little water on it and it did not instantly absorb, I had time to grab a towels and dab it off before it soaked in.
All in all if you have doubts, dont. Because this bed frame is amazeballs.
Insanely amazing and perfect for the price
