For those of you who have had this bed for a year or more, how is it holding up? How often do you have to tighten the bolts?

We definitely have to tighten the bolts regularly, but it still seems sturdy despite this fact.

I tighten the bolts on this bed atleast once a month! My son is 50lbs and only uses the bed to sleep in at night. It is not used as a jungle gym nor trampoline, like most beds kids do.

We have had ours since December and it's holding up great; haven't tightened the bolts yet!

So far bed has held up with 2 sturdy active boys who are 10 to 12 years of age and of course I go around every-so-often and tighten the screws. I have each bed set up on a corner wall in one room, maybe this helps it be more sturdy.

I have this bed for half a year now, I haven't had a problem with it scratching.

My husband who is 6' about 220 has slept on it intermittently(when he's sick, snoring, etc) for a year and it has held up well. Even though it's a "spare" bed, it is used almost weekly for kids' sleepovers, etc. We are very happy with it.

Hi Ronald: We have had our rollaway beds (we bought two) for about 3 years. We use them regularly, the frame holds up nicely. They are easy to fold up and to put down. The only suggestion I have if you purchase this bed is to consider buying a memory foam topper if you really want to be very very comfortable.

We have owned ours for over a year. My husband weighs 325 lbs and it feels and looks as good as the day we bought them. I am thankful every night for a comfortable bed!!!

Sorry Bruce That bed was burned in the annual family BBQ. It fell apart within 6 months.. I had bought two twin size and a queen size and they all have fallen apart and have been replaced. I would recommend not buying this bed.

I had the same experience at the beginning, but I took it apart and looked at the directions again. they are not the clearest but once I figured how it should go, it turned out well and it's a great bed. sturdy and unshakable. good make and great deal.good luck

I'd say about 4 years. We bought ours in January 2009. I didn't realize what the problem was, but in the last months or year the bed has gotten noticeably less comfortable. So I'd say it had held up fine for 4 years. BTW, we really like it. I'm a back-and-stomach sleeper; my wife is a side-sleeper, with hip replacements. This compromise (over a firm polyurethane mattress foam slab mattress) has worked as a successful compromise. I also dislike other memory foam because it makes me hot; no problem with this one. I'm about to buy a new one.

I like this bed. After a year I have had no problems. But I have a foam mattress and am considering a getting a new mattress which may be heavier. I'd like to know if anyone has had problem with a heavier mattress.

We still have this bed and it is still a great buy. My daughter and her husband bought a name brand mattress that had to be replaced, but ours is still going strong. It has been 3 years.

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.

Mine gets heavy use (a couple of loads of laundry every 2-3 days) and it has not fallen apart for me. I have had it for about 3-4 months as well and it has not lost shape or deteriorated in any way. I am careful, however, when I collapse it to push in all of the corners equally until the rods move smoothly. I don't try to force it.

We have had this bed for 2 years. We added extra 1x2 and support legs. Has withstood daily use by two adults, 2 boxers and a shih tzu. I would buy again if needed

I did not actually assemble the bed, my husband and his friend did. That said, I would venture to guess that it wouldn't last through too many moves. While I am satisfied with its quality for our purposes (we use it as a child's bed and don't intend to move), I don't think it's a high enough quality that it would sustain multiple disassembly and reassembly. Hope this helps.
