My husband I are short people. We bought a new mattress and did not want box springs so the bed would be easier to get into. Plus I got tired of fighting with the dust ruffle on the old bed. I love the new hight of the bed and do NOT miss the dust ruffle. It was easy to assemble and looks great!!!
It was easy to assemble and the minimal tools needed were provided. We have slept on it for a bout a month and it seems sturdy and not noisy at all. The color is darker than it looks online, but that was perfect for us because it matches my bedroom set better. We decided to not use our box springs because the bed would be too high if we did. We are happy we purchased this bed frame. will buy again!
Choice
Queen, Walnut. Not as medium brown as pictured. A bit darker and more matte stain.
Delivery
Arrived in one week from the order date. The 103 pound box was too heavy to move by myself, so I opened the box in the lobby downstairs and took the pieces up to my apartment in batches. Given the size and weight, a return was unlikely unless absolutely necessary.
Why Buy
It is an all wood bed without a metal support beam in the middle (which has been known to warp and destroy peoples floors). It is sturdy and easy to assemble/disassemble (which is key for young people who move often). I had a $80 coupon that significantly reduced the price. Cost: $358 (no tax, free shipping).
Pre-Assembly
I wrapped the ends of the unfinished wood support pieces in masking tape to prevent squeaking, chipping, and to ensure a snug fit. This is tedious, but worth it in the long run. I took breaks when I became bored. Also tape the ends of the middle support beam and the inside groove of the two middle support legs. Itll make for a quieter, more secure bed. After this, assembly is a breeze.
Assembly
Time: 10-15 minutes. The wooden frame may not want to hook in easily at first, but stay with it and make sure the corners are neatly aligned. They will hook in. As for screwing the middle support legs into the middle, I found those legs to be wider than the bean itself. There was a gap even after everything was screwed in and the middle legs were still a bit moveable. Not overly concerned as they are meant for additional support, if needed.
Damage/Irregularities (Three photos included.)
1) Noticeable, sizable cosmetic chipping on two of the external bed frame pieces.
2) I also noticed a deep crack in the wood corner where one bed frame hooks in. I hope there arent structural problems in the future.
3) Some of the support slats had irregular edges and benefitted from getting wrapped in masking tape. One bar was so irregular it never really fit flush into any slot, so I put it on an edge closest to the external bed frame where it wouldnt receive as much stress compared to the middle.
Absolutely love this bed!! The almond wood color is gorgeous in person and shows the grain, which I love. VERY heavy and sturdy. Piece of cake to assemble. The California King has 4 additional heavy duty support legs under the 2 heavy duty central support beams. No odor. We have a very heavy Layla hybrid mattress on it (also strongly recommend!)
We like this sturdy platform bed. We purchased the whitewash color wasnt sure if we would like it, but we ended up loving it. The whitewash stain look elegant rich.

Did not come with complete.
Part of the bed bracket hooks was not assembled and many dents.
It is very sturdy!

Be prepared to do wood work
I had to modify the holes for the center support as they didnt line up as intended. Added an hour to assembly time.
Great product

as advertised
very solid and pretty much as the ads Long time to assemble. But worth the time.
So beautiful and sturdy!

Just OK
Suports are pressed wood. Fits either cal king or regular king. I wish it came in both measurements. Too much excess on all sides for a regular king
Like this sturdy, simple platform bed.
