Not a standard-size twin, but it is the exact size of a bunkbed frame
First of all, this is not a standard-sized bed, but rather on the narrow side. They are calling it a twin, but its not. The measurements make it more in the line of a bunkbed, which is usually around 36 x 75. Theres not a lot of difference and I would call this a small single, not a twin. That being said, assembly takes more than the twenty minutes allotted. The directions are a single sheet affair and, of course, they tell you not to tighten anything up until assembly is complete. It will be rather likee assembling a puzzle if youve never assembled a bed or crib before.
If you want to purchase a standard twin mattress for this bed, it will hang over the edges a bit. An RV mattress, which is approximately the same dimensions, will cost you more than the bed. This doesnt need a box spring and a mattress can be put right on the top. Theres no flex in that steel, unlikee the beech slats in some cots and beds. Ive assembled more than a few in my day and the ones with the flexible wooden slats tend to offer up more comfort in the long run.
This small single bed would be good!!! if you have limited space to work with. Theres more room than an army cot on this bed, but less than a regular twin. The quality of the steel is good!!!, similar to at least one other bed Ive assembled. It will hold a fair amount of weight (750 pounds), but Im not enamored with things likee the pressboard headboard. This reminds me of the one I have on a Jay-Be cot, which is a foldup one. Not really as impressed with this bed as I thought I would be.
