I have had my bed for about 1 yr. I like my bed a lot because of the storage. I see that its 600 now and that is quite high for particle board, in my opinion. I wanted the storage / thats the only reason I bought this in particle board. I wish it was solid wood but we are happy with it. Basically we sleep on it and its fine and our combined weight is 325 lbs. We reinforced it with brackets all over the place on the inside. The head side of the bed is up against a wall. The bed is a pretty good design went together well but it took us over 8 hours, including sorting out all the hardware and wood pieces and reading instructions. It came in 4 boxes and it took 6 weeks to complete the delivery / the first one never arrived completely and had to be resent, that was the fault of the carrier. I couldnt begin assembly of what I did receive early because hardware was shipped separately with other components. ( I explained the shipping further, below). The instructions are very good and the hardware is easy to use. My husband is handy and showed me how to put the drawers together and I was able to do them easily. If you can follow instructions and have someone to help with the heavier aspects, anyone can do this. It helps to have a ratcheting screwdriver and a power screw driver. Near the final put together the hardest part was getting the bed/drawers all aligned and screwing down the brackets while keeping the slats from slipping off. There are pilot holes that the brackets screw into that are hardly noticeable. I dont know how anyone would do the final assembly alone (keeping the walls together with drawers in while attaching head and foot) / it really requires two people I think. Once aligned the drawers were almost perfectly flush. I am impressed with the way the bed was engineered, as the only weakness is that its particle board, and also there are some gaps at the head area between the mattress and the head piece. I havent put a headboard up / that is another project. Im not having problems with the slats sliding and dropping out. They are plywood and my husband used angle brackets to secure them in place to the head and foot boards. There are two particle board pieces in the center part of the bed that hold the sides of the bed, and the drawers glide on. The slats could also be anchored to those boards. Overall. I think the bed is more stable with a lot of angle brackets. After that, it would be very difficult to take this bed apart and move itthat is the nature of particle board, but I guess it would be possible if you have wood glue and wood filler. We also put self stic felt underneath on any area that touched our flooring. This also makes it easier to slide the bed if needed. After reading the reviews I realize the bed cannot be torqued or the particle board would be stressed. Our combined weight is about 315 lbs and we havent had any issues. I think if you reinforce this bed with the angle brackets it will work out okay.
Weve slept on it for two weeks and still plan to go in and do more reinforcement. I will try to update in the future. I would say if you get it reinforce it, its a decent bed to get more storage especially if you have a smaller bedroom or closet space. However, I dont expect to move this bed and I agree with others, it probably cant be
My bed had some damage that was mostly cosmetic. I got a discount from although not as much as I asked for. The rep didnt tell me exactly the truth either. He said Id get a partial refund for the damage, but instead gave me a promo credit on my account which limits what I can buy on / only items fulfilled by and no gift cards either. I feel this was misleading from what he originally told me.
My delivery experience with UPS was not good. The bed shipped in 4 boxes and UPS lost the 4th heaviest box (over 100 lbs) twice. The first order was lost had to be replaced and then UPS did the same thing. My local driver finally found it in the warehouse and told me about it, saying it was extremely beat up..and do I still want it. I said yes Ive waited 6 wks for it / so he personally had it loaded on his truck and brought it. He is a good driver of course, but the warehouse is run poorly. shipped quickly and it made it to the UPS warehouse in a few days. But that last boxthe biggest one, so banged around that the drawer guides were rattling inside, the foam separated. could have taped things together better because the drawer guides and brackets damaged the finish on the bed pretty severely. None of the boards were cracked so that was a plus and the bed is usable. It is alright.
After placing the mattress on it and sitting down for the FIRST time. It broke. The side of the bed is secured using only one bolt and is screwed through particle board. Im not a terribly heavy dude at 200lbs, but I sat down to enjoy my new mattress and frame and heard a crack.
This bed was easy to put together! I love the way the slats are held in as ot makes it really sturdy. So far we love this bed! Perfect for my teenager.
There were no pre drilled holes to attach to bed frame. Made assembly longer
Received with scratches on top of head board.
Loved the color it was true to the picture Very easy to set up!

Love the storage. Bed definitely needs reinforcement. Very high if used with a thick mattress.

Very nice bed for the money.
Although the directions were good there was way too many pieces to assemble. Finished product was very nice. Easy and strong.
Dont order unless your good with DIY
Good bed but; Do Not Buy if youre not good at building things. No mars on what board/ fastener is what. Instructions are garbage.
Broke after sitting down for the first time
