My wife and I got rid of our old four/poster bed we have had for the last 24 years and wanted something new. We recently set up a platform bed in our guest room so we thought we would give it a try in our master bed room. Our old bed would creak, squeak rattle a lot with any extra movement in the bed. This platform bed doesnt make a single sound with any extra movement. This is great since our sons room shares a wall with the MBR.
We were able to get rid of our box springs and use our memory foam gel mattress on our new platform bed. Im not sure if its my imagination or not but our mattress seems like its a lot more firm then when it was on our box springs on our four poster bed. Either way we are getting used to it and starting to enjoy it more and more each night. The bed height is perfect for us with the platform bed being at 14 tall and our mattress adds another 12 for a total of 26 bed height.
If feels a little weird not having a head board or foot board but we are getting used to it after about a week of sleeping on it. It does make it much easier to make the bed in the morning though. All in all we are very, very happy with our new platform bed. I would definitely buy it again. Our did have a few blemishes in the painted/powder coated frame rails but not enough to worry about. Especially when it will be covered by bedding.
Doesnt move at all!
