Box is long and heavy. It was not fun getting it up those stairs. I was concerned that it wouldnt hold me up as I am a big boy (5 10, 300). Its holding me up just fine. No movement or customary snap crackle and pops us big boys hear when we sit/lay down on something.
It was incredibly easy to put together. It comes with a hex key and that is all you will need. Just follow directions and youll be done before you know it.
The only beef I had was in some sections, when joining the head and foot to the sides, the screws were too close to the wall so I couldnt just turn freely. I had to back out and back in every half turn. But, its not that bad.
This was a good buy for me.
ONE YEAR LATER.. so far, the frame has held up for the most part. Only two of the slats have broken and the majority of the slats on the one side Ive slept on have flattened out. I figure its only a matter of time before they ALL invert or break.
The frame is still nice and holding up very well as it pertains to head, foot, center spine and sides. Im considering just getting some plywood and laying it on top of the slats or creating 2 more spines with some 2x4s.
Remember, Im a big, heavy man. I knew those slats would be pushed to the limits and they reached their limits with me. For average sized men and women, Id say this item will hold up just fine, even with the ups and downs
Im impressed so far
