Excellent storage, and good design. Be prepared to take a long time for assembly, but they provide VERY detailed instructions and very well labelled screws and tools. It just takes some time. But is worth it / great bed and wonderful storage area.
This is a great bed. The storage underneath is a life/saver. You can only put short items in the storage, but we are able to fit a lot in it. The bed lifts and lowers very nicely, though you need a bit of strength to start lifting it. I am very happy that our bedding and pillows do not fly everywhere when we lift it up to access the storage/they stay put because the bed moves smoothly when lifting and lowering it. Assembly will take you a while, but the unit is solid and good quality. It looks and works great / I highly recommend it!
I was a bit skeptical as to how good of quality this bed was going to be but I am actually very pleased. I had to work the night the bed came so I was not here to assemble but Im pretty sure it only took my boyfriend 2/3 hours and thats only because he had to use the tools that came with the bed instead of his own because he had left them at work. If he had his own drill it probably would have been assembled faster. We have a queen size Purple brand mattress which is very heavy and it lifts up very easily. There is very good amount of storage under the bed which is great. The only complaint that I have is that its hard to get the bed sheet all the way down between the mattress and the head board so it is constantly coming off the corner of the mattress. Other than that this bed is really worth the money.
Oh we love this bed the storage is awesome Holds alot of stuff. When you like in an apartment storage is limited, this is the bed to store all your bed set.
Its took us like 3 / 4 hrs to put together.
Unfortunately, when we moved my husband took the bed apart a few of the clips for the slabs broke. Ive been trying to get the sellers info to contact as to getting some clips but no luck. Im hopeful some will help me here.
Originally I had a bed that went all the way to the floor / similar to this one but the difference was that I couldnt put anything under it. Upgraded to this one and now its like I have an extra storage closet!! Love it. Already filled it to the brim too but it helped to clear out my actual storage closet to make room for other things. Its also a great place to store all of my bedding (pillows, blankets, sheets, etc).
I was able to put this together in 1 hour and 3 minutes completely alone, but a second person would have definitely made things easier/faster. Ive included the instructions (pictures) so you can see what to expect. The most difficult part to do by myself was to add the main frame that holds the bed onto the lifting arms (and get them screwed on). But I managed to do it in a matter of minutes anyway Other than that part, it was all pretty easy. Great, easy to follow instructions.
A couple of tips/notes:
/ A single person can put this together but itll definitely make things easier if you have another person there to help.
/ On step 5, I added the N brackets to the bed frame FIRST and then lifted the frame to add the Z legs / this was much easier than doing it the way they say to do it (which is to add the legs to the brackets first and THEN mount the whole thing onto the bed frame). Doing it this way also allowed me to do it on my own (instead of having someone else there just lifting the bed while I screwed the bracket/leg assembly on).
/ DONT LOSE ANY OF THE SCREWS! This kit only comes with the EXACT number of nuts and bolts required, not a single extra nut or bolt is included so be sure you dont lose any. I recommend using a magnetic wrist band (made for holding nuts and bolts) if you have one. Or just keep every nut and bolt in the case until youre ready to use them.
/ If you wanted to, you could remove the large base boards (inside of the container area) to get a little bit more space. Of course then you might see things under the bed. Just an option if something is too tall to fit in there.
/ Use double/sided tape on a few of the wooden slats that the mattress sits on / this will prevent the mattress from sliding when you lift the compartment. The little metal brackets that are supposed to stop the bed from sliding were not working well for my 8 thick memory foam mattress.
/ Always wrap your mattress in an anti bed/bug cover! This will basically prevent you from ever getting bed bugs. They work amingly well.
/ You do not need a box spring on this bed. It has slats that are meant to replace the box spring so just place your mattress directly on top.
/ Bed size is 79.5L x 56.5W x 42.5H. Measure out a space for it before you order
Other things worth noting:
/ The lift is VERY strong. It has no problem at all lifting this somewhat heavy/dense, full/size memory foam mattress. In fact, its more difficult to pull the bed DOWN than it is to lift UP :D That means I can add all of my bedding and it still has no trouble lifting up. Of course when you put it down, it kind of locks into place (not really but it passes the point of resistance/lifting power) / so theres no chance of it just lifting on its own.
/ I paid 325 for this bed, which I thought was an ok deal / but then the price went way up. I dont think I would have bought it if it was more than 325. I thought even 325 was a little high
Hope this is helpful to someone else out there!
My 15yr old son absolutely loves his bed. The bed is very sturdy! Great storage compartment! Love how classy the headboard looks in his bedroom. Excellent purchase!
Bought this bed for our 12 year old. Pretty easy to put together, took me about 1 hour. Lots of storage underneath. Some buyers mention the metal bed frame isnt very strong. I would say if you are under 225 you should be fine. I wouldnt recommend anyone of any weight to jump up and down on a mattress on this bed. It would probably fail after a while.
I was nervous about purchasing this bed because of all the assembly comments. Im a not/so/strong 30 year old women that lives by herself. I assembled this bed within a hour and half with a glass of wine, and a few of my own tools. Honestly the most frustrating part was dealing with all the left over packaging. Overall this is a very sturdy and nice looking bed, especially for the price. Just read the instructions and youll be fine.

Definitely worth it
This does take a bit to put together; I did it myself over maybe 1 1/2 hours. But the result is awesome and its a good quality!
Excellent storage and bed
My 15yr old son absolutely loves his bed. The bed is very sturdy! Great storage compartment! Love how classy the headboard looks in his bedroom. Excellent purchase!

Nice bed, and assembly isnt so bad.
I was nervous about purchasing this bed because of all the assembly comments. Im a not/so/strong 30 year old women that lives by herself.

Not bad
Its a good bed but it requires you to make some structural repairs
