Very nice product! Weve had this bed frame about a year now. I purchased this shortly after I purchased a new mattress. It was shipped quickly and nothing was damaged in shipping.
About a month after getting the new mattress/frame (king) I noticed my side of the bed was developing a pretty bad valley. So I started turning the mattress. About three weeks later it needed it again. This went on for about three months and I was strongly considering trying to return the mattress.
Eventually it struck me that the mattress may not be the issue, as it was fine when it had been on box springs prior. I pulled the mattress up and found the cross boards to be fairly weak and flexible. I pulled out the very thin 1/4 x 4 boards and replaced them with eight 2x6x8s that were cut down to size. Feels like a brand new mattress now.
All in all, Im still giving it four stars because everything else was great quality and has held up very well. I 100 understand that for the price I cannot expect much more. The proper mattress supports would make the cost of shipping, and the unit overall go up.
It should be noted that the supports very well could be completely adequate with a lighter or smaller mattress. 40 on some 2x6s really wasnt a big deal for me, and still feel good about the purchase.
Good Quality for the price, not perfect.
