I have been pleasantly surprised by the 14 tall Platform Bed. Please note: The clearance underneath the bed is approximately 12, so there is room for under the bed storage.
Your bed arrives well packaged and is well heavier than I expected. It is definitely one of those items you want to unpackage in the bedroom you will be assembling it. Mine came packaged with a box within a box.
Assembly is pretty straight forward and only took us about a half hour from beginning to end. Needless to say, it would be easier with two people, but one person should be fine. Our pieces aligned nicely and we had no issues during assembly. We were able to put our new mattress on the platform portion of the bed. The room certainly came together nicely in just a matter of minutes!
We have a very happy teenager who was getting cramped in his old bed. We have not experienced any squeaks or wobbling. It is sturdy! He has been using his new bed for approximately three weeks now.
The one question I had when selecting this frame was if a headboard could be added down the road at some point. I will update this review when I receive the new headboard brackets I purchased for another bed in our home. Updated review
