I purchased a Queen size bed for a guest bedroom but didnt want to spend a fortune because it wouldnt be used too often. I am super happy with the Alexia platform bed. Its simple design was just what I was looking for and the color matched the other furniture in the room perfectly. It came packaged really well and was easy to open with no damaged parts. The hardware was neatly organized. The 2 of us put it together relatively quickly but had 2 minor complaints about the instructions. 1- The instructions did not include a step to put the middle feet on the bed. We had to figure it ourselves but it turned out to be easy. We just couldnt figure out why it wasnt included in the instructions. 2- The parts list refers to items by letters but then when you are putting it together, the pieces have numbers on them. A little confusing but easy to overcome. Overall, I feel this was a great purchase. The simple headboard is nice and I even twined some silk florals around it (see photos). I read that some people felt the bed was not very sturdy but since we are only using it in a guest room, I am not too concerned.
Very nice economical bed
