A very satisfying purchase at a very reasonable price. Id buy another if I had the need
Sturdy. For a new apartment, I needed a bed to go with my existing mattress. I wanted something reasonably priced, raised high enough off the ground to sit on, sturdy and well built, and attractive. I saw this on , read the reviews and decided to try it. At its price if I didnt like it, I figured it would give me something to work with while I shopped for a better bed.
Somewhat to my surprise Im very pleased with this bed in regards to meeting all of my criteria. Its more attractive in this color and fabric than I would have expected and I dont feel the need to replace it with something more attractive or of a different style. In fact, I recently saw a bed at Crate and Barrel that looks very similar for 1300. This bed is raised high enough so that sitting is comfortable, and sitting in bed with my head against the headboard is comfortable, too.
Assembly is not any more difficult than the many other beds Ive assembled. In 2010, I temporarily worked for a furniture company delivering and assembling a variety of wood frame beds and this is definitely as good or better than the more expensive beds I delivered. This one feels more sturdy when built, where those other beds were simple wood frames with screwed in slats. Theyre so simple that I always wondered why they cost so much. This bed in design is more advanced with well thought out parts that hold their shape when connected as a whole.
I gave this product 4 of 5 starts for two flaws on my specific unit: There was a gash of about 4 in the fabric behind the headboard where it was damaged either during manufacture, packaging or shipping. Because of my need for a bed, the location of the flaw and the difficulty in shipping it back, Ive decided to just live with it. The other flaw was a bent latch where one of the rails hooks into the headboard. This is a pretty thick piece of but I was able to bend it back into shape and assemble the bed.
I had to make a lot of decisions and purchases for my new apartment, and this bed was both one of the easiest and best choices I made. I think what satisfied me the most is that I got so much for such a reasonable price, easily saving 400 from what I would have bought locally.
