Do any of you happen to have or know of an instruction manual on putting this bed together? I ordered 2 Manila beds (queen) and neither came w/ inst.

Thanks for your question, The manual is available on the manufacturer's website here: http://www.dhpfurniture.com/eng/Products/Bedroom/Metal-beds/Details/3042-3236198-Manila-Metal-Bed-Available-in-Full-and-Queen-Size Under the product description you will find a product detail box- open up the Instruction Manual tab. You would need to refer to the Instruction Manual Number ( IM No.) located on the sticker which is on the product itself.

I have the same issue with a queen frame...I keep the mattress close to the headboard and have a much larger gap at the footboard. I honestly think that's the way this sleigh bed was designed. On the positive side, it's very easy to make the bed!

Love the bed, but hated the frame. I ended up bending the frame by pulling the footboard (bottom) in while sitting on the mattress. The only other solution was buying another frame, which I decided against. It looks fine once it is made up and I hardly notice that it (frame) was too long on one side. Still love the bed and get compliments on it every time I show the loft where it is being used. Thanks, rcaldwellgarrick@gmail.com

Go the following link which has instructions for eight different pieces of Rack Furniture. This particular bed is model #4000. The instructions were most definitely not in our box either and from all the online message boards, this appears to be the norm now instead of the exception. Thank goodness for this online archive website! http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.rackfurniturellc.com/app/download/*

Its been awhile but if I remember correctly, it came in 6 pcs (2 bed rails, 2 for both ends where the the ladder area is, and 2 bed frames). We just basically followed the picture, and it was fairly easy. We started by getting the 'ladder frames' upright, facing each other. The slots where you fit the bed frames should be inwards (facing each other), and spaced out in approximation of the length of the bed. We had one side leaned on the wall, while another person was holding the other 'ladder frame' upright. Then you fit in the lower bed frame to the 4 slots in each leg of the 'ladder frame'. This will allow the bed to stay upright by itself. Then do the same to the upper bed frame (or you can do it in reverse, whichever is easier for you). Next comes the bed rail for the upper bunk. You were provided screws for this. It didn't take 30mins to do all these, if you have another pair of hands to help.

Jessica,Good point. I think this is a typo. Probably the person writing the text, just didn't realize the mistake. This is a top quality, well made bed. I believe, you'll be pleased with your purchase. I've had the bed for about 4 months, and it's still very comfortable I looked at various beds like futons etc, and although this bed is more money, it's worth it. Michael.

I have the same problem. Bought 2. Tried to assemble one and ran into difficulty. I tried to follow the picture but was unsucessful. No writen instructions came with the units

I had a queen size bed base with headboard that was separate. I just donated the base with the mattresses and slipped my queen size Dynasty right in. If you came into my bedroom you would think they came together. My headboard has a flat surface so when the bed is level I can place the controls up there.

The instructions that came with mine were not the best. It has been a while since I put mine together, but I remember I had to take areas apart to get the shelves in, so don't tighten any screws all the way. If I can remember correctly, I put on side together then the other side. Then I put the shelves in. The main top and wheels went on last. It is a good sturdy piece of furniture for the price, once it is put together. I am sorry I cant be of more assistance but I wish you luck.

Hi, Unfortunately, I haven't set the bed up yet so haven't opened the packages. I need to paint the room first. Guess I better open the boxes :-(. Apologies I couldn't help.

Make sure you look at the pictures and match the letters to the pictures. It will take at least 2 hours to assemble, possibly longer if you have never done this before. USE WOOD GLUE and extra screws to stabilize the frame (I screwed 1.5" wood screws into the ends of cross braces; I knew I would be moving the bed to rearrange the room, from time to time, and moving the bed will loosen the frame; make sure you do not put additional screws into the drawer area!); if you do not have a cordless drill or are unsure of how to use the additional screws, the wood glue should be enough to make it more stable. Use the wood glue on ALL of the unfinished end boards that butt into predrilled holes. If I have confused you, please feel free to direct email me at (remove all the spaces in the following address): n w m l d r @ g m a i l . c o m I believe I paid less than $200 for my queen size bed frame-most likely far LESS, since I like to shop for a bargain!

All I can tell you is we had no trouble putting the bed together and all the parts were included. If this piece you are asking about is missing then I would take this up with the manufacturer. I hope my reply helps!

I would contact the manufacturer to see if they have online instructions you can download. If not I would return it. Hard enough to put together WITH the instructions.

We have a new mattress! That is not the issue! There should be side and foot boards like shown in the photos! The headboard is wobbly without them!
