What they say is true. I started to assemble the frame about an hour before I had to leave for work and completely finished it in 40 minutes. I used only the Allen wrench they provide in the kit.
My biggest concern was that it wouldnt actually work well with my queen size shikifuton mattress from the Futon Shop (hello San Fran). BUT ITS PERFECT. The mattress is more loose form than western mattresses and I was hoping it would not sink through the gaps in the wooden planks. I really didnt want to shill out the money for a more expensive one with closer planks.
And Im glad I didnt. Because even though I am single as a Pringle right now, I shook this thing as best I could and not a peep or creak in sight. For reference I have laminate hardwood floors and live in an old building with odd angles.
Thanks !
The rumors are true..
