How does it come? I need to get it through a narrow staircase and I would like to know if it is flexible enough to bend it. thank you. Alternatively perhaps I should get 2 twin boxes instead for my queen bed. Thanks for any information.

It comes unassembled in one box. It would be best to put it together in the room it will be used in.

I don't know yet , it does seem to bend slightly, but I don't have the bunk bed yet to try it out. I have the mattress folded in half at this time with a weight on it while I wait for the bed to be sorted out!

Wish I could help you. I only used mine for curves. It seems thin enough to bend though.

The whole frame needed to be assembled. All slats were separate and in a box with the hardware. I threw away the box so this is my guess. Dimensions were at least 40" long, about 12" wide and about 12" deep from what I can remember. If you stand the box up on end, you probably would be able to get it up your narrow staircase.I hope this helps and I hope it works for you. The wood is natural in colour...I did mine in amber shellac. I love it.

There are little plastic pieces on the edges near the part where it bends up. They are easy to pull up but, the person has to be able to lean down and lift one side and than go to down to the other side of the bed and pull that one also. Hope this helps. Sorry I cant explain it better.

It comes boxed in a narrow box about 1 ft across and its full length of 6+ ft. Taking the box up a narrow staircase should be just file. But you will need about 5-6 ft of clear floor space where you intend to assemble it.. Good luck!

It's very springy--you can bend it as much as you like, but it will return to flat as soon as you let go of it. (Heaven help anyone who is trying to re-wrap it to send it back!) It also has a tendency to slip to one side or the other and require frequent re-positioning, pretty much every time you make the bed. I'm going to try to invent something involving snaps and elastic to keep it in place better. But as far as folding without damage--it might get a crease if it's folded tight, but that will even out in a day or so once it's released.

It is real strange. It is tall but narrow. They some how suck all the air out and make it skinny. But then when open it expands. I would move it up stairs first then open it. You should be fine. But it is a heavy buger.

The frame is in two pieces, each the size of a twin bed. But they fold flat so you should be able to get up the stairs fine. Our mattress arrived folded like a taco and wrapped in plastic instead of the box other people reported. But it manuvered very easily through the narrow hall and tight corner we needed to make, as it is foam and folds easily. Great mattress and easy to move. Shouldn't be a problem for you.

It is heavy but very easy to get up narrow stairs. It comes compressed in a roll that is in a box that is only 18 inches square but about 6 feet long. When you take it out of the box it opens up quickly but takes several hours to reach full thickness. Do not take out of box until you are at top of stairs and it will work fine.

It is simple but keep it in package until you have it where you want it and then after you have mattress out let sit out 2 days flat on bed so it returns to natural shape. I am a women and put it together. It was a little heavy but I was moving it upstairs. Still as nice as the day I got it.

Yours may be defective. Or you may be expecting too much bend. I don't even think of it as bending, but rather as being flexible. You're not going to get a 45 degree angle if that's what you need. I just looked at mine, and the most I get is about 10 or15 degrees from vertical before it just picks up off the floor. It's more a matter of better traction because you have three contact points instead of just one and a little "play" to keep you steadier. I don't know if that makes any sense at all. I still love mine. I thought I would change back to the ordinary tip for summer, but I haven't. This one adds just a snudge more security.

My door is not curved and I do not recall how flexible it was since I did not have to curve it. However, it came on a roll so that means is flexible enough. Hope you find this info helpful. Regards

It's recommended. I tried to put it on my own bed when my daughter had to sleep w/me for a few days. I do not have box springs, I have a bed frame w/multiple wood panels. I had to line up the bottom legs of the railing w/the panels which was slightly off. I ended up not using it on my bed in fear of the bottom legs breaking. The box spring gives the railing support, like a sandwich effect, to keep the railing sturdy and secure. Please let me know if you have anymore questions! Good Luck!

It is quite stiff. I put it under one of my beds. I suppose you could try it.

I can't answer that. Once the mattress attains it's full shape, it is over a foot thick with innersprings. It is very heavy and I don't think it would bend.
