Is this twin bed very sturdy? I ask because my boys are rough on beds. We would be using it without a box frame.

NO. My sons bed is bowing in the middle. We've had it only a few months. I don't recommend it to anyone. Sorry so late with an answer.

Yes it seems pretty sturdy. You do have to occasionally check the bolts to make sure they are tight.

I think it's pretty sturdy. Not the light, flimsy type of metal. It's a good quality, particularly considering the price.

I do say it is pretty sturdy. However is it the most sturdy thing out there? No. Mine kind of shakes and I have to tighten the screws every hear and there.

According to my husband who assembled the bed, it is very sturdy. Time will tell, of course. He is confident the bed will pass that test. Let's hope so!

No, I had to return mine. It bent in the middle. My 13 year old girl was using it. Only lasted a few days before it bent.

Sturdy enough, but I dont allow my grandkids to jump on the beds. How old are your boys?

Yes very heavy/sturdy we love ours you will have to reinforce the support of the mattress slats .... we used plywood

Yes, the frame is very sturdy. I have had adults sleep in beds with this bed frame.

Yes you have to put it together, it isn't hard too just have some patience and easier if you have 2 people one on each side. (I have a bit more patience then my husband) but if you look at how you think it will go together then it's easy. I don't believe this frame is made for a box spring & mattress.... I have just a foam mattress as no box is needed and a foam mattress is what they recommend. I love it..............

It would depend on what type of bed or bed frame your useing. If you have a platform bed or platform bed frame which is what I used, you don't need a box frame. But if you have one of the frames that basically outlines the outer bottom edges of your mattress then you need a box frame. I hope this helps! Very comfy bed though. I couldn't be happier with it.

Well my son has it and wanted a platform bed so he did not use a box spring because it was too high..it's has kinda fallen apart..just saying

Bed is great. The only problem is the two pieces of particle board that they use for the main support. We just found out during the week that it is starting to break so now over the weekend we have to go switch out the particle board for real wood.Other than that we haven't had any problems with the bed. Its not like its a metal or normal frame that moves, so you don't get any noises from it. Drawers pull out without any problems and noises as well.

I put the bed together by myself in about 4 hours. It wasn't very difficult and would be quicker with 2 people. The box was bulky and probably 80 pounds. I needed my husband's help to carry it inside. I ended up taking parts out of the box and moving them to the room I was assembling in.

Nope you should be fine it is fairly smooth and def sturdy enough. You could always lay something down on top of frame such as piece of plywood then soft sheet or blanket over that then air mattress on top and you def would have no problems. I've seen then cheaper less sturdier frame in person, make sure you get this one the sleep master elite IMO.

I put my mattress on the frame and had no board and no trouble. Are you sure you put it together properly? Is there a box spring? I don't think it will stay on the frame without a box spring.

Not quite sure, but i can tell you that i was pretty surprised that the frame seems to be well made. It does not need a box spring and it has metal bars that go across the entire center of frame. Very sturdy.. i love this frame and for the price you can't go wrong. Only complaint is that if you lean over one side of the bed the matress slides, mine has a few inches of frame sticking out on each side so it can lead to some bruised shins!But mine is a king...

It is a fairly solid bed. The headboard doesn't "sway" at all because it is bolted to the frame with some heavy connection points. Well worth the money.

Hi Kerri, I would not suggest using a box spring with this bed. It would be too high. It's an awesome bed btw. Easy to assemble.

It seems pretty sturdy to me. Keep in mind that adding a mattress will add height, and kids grow fast. Personally, I don't see why you would need anything in addition to a good mattress.

You need a regular bed frame. My daughter says her bed is fabulous. Her roommate bought a bed for 800$ and it is so uncomfortable. She really LOVES this one. Looks like a regular bed when it is assembled. She was also able to put it all together herself.

Chandramohan , I built my own frame out of 2x6 . The box springs and mattress rest on top . I also screwed the frame ( head board, foot board and both side rails ) together because they kept coming apart . Now it is one solid frame. After a lot of doing this and doing that , it is finally the way I believe it should be. If I had to do this over again I would probably just buy a bed from some place like Rooms to Go and let the store employees deliver and put the whole thing together and leave all the work out of it for me.

This bed is sturdy. I have a 14 year old and an 11 year old sleeping in it. Your twins will be able to use it until they go to college. :)
