Nice looking bed, needs to be assembled tightly, so nothing can work loose.

This is a good, fairly nice looking sleigh bed. It was not too difficult for my movers to assemble for after my move into a new home. The only thing I'm having a problem with is that one of the support legs down the median of the frame must not have been attached completely securely. It shifted unexpectedly one evening when I moved in the bed, and when I looked under the bed I could see it is now tilted at a slight angle, not in a secure position. Unfortunately, it is impossible to get at without removing the mattress and box springs and having a second person available to lift the bed to straighten it before seeing if it can be tightened. As I am a female senior citizen, living alone, that is not easily done. However, the bed seems to be well supported over all, and this is not a major crisis, so I will live with it for the time being. I would still recommend the bed, but be careful about making sure it is tightly assembled before you put the mattress and box springs on it.

I purchased the Queen 12-Drawer Storage Bed.

A brief review:

The Good:
The bed comes with all parts you need to assemble, including instructions and extra screws.
When put together, the bed looks nice, is sturdy enough to hold two adults, and offers ample storage space.

The Cons:
The bed is mostly laminate particle board- as such it is: brittle; heavy; scratches easily; and you must take extra care when assembling and screwing in parts.

The full review:

Three of us worked on putting this bed together.  The man of the group put together the dozen drawers with a power drill and hammer while the two women worked on the bedframe with handheld screw drivers.  We worked fairly efficiently and had no problem reading the directions. The build time from start to finish was still almost 4 hours.

The laminate scratches and chips VERY easily.  I would recommend assembling the drawers on padding or thick carpet, and make room to spread them out or gently stack them as you finish them.  Whatever you do, don't drop them.  Sadly, we dropped one (it chipped) and scuffed several.  The bed frame, of course, needs to be assembled in the bedroom where it will stay.  The room we chose has hardwood floors, so at the very start we attached felt furniture pads to the bottom of the bed ends and middle supports.  (When the bed was assembled, the pads allowed the two of us to move the bed into just the right spot without any difficulty- and without damaging the floor.)

One hole, for the wood screw to hold the metal support, was drilled just a few millimeters off, but considering how many screw and nails went into the thing, that was not a big deal.

Make sure that all of the screws for the drawer hardware are screwed in flush.  One drawer wasn't sliding in smoothly and on further inspection, I noticed one screw was at a slight angle and was not flat against the metal slider.  I removed the screw, put another one in correctly, and the drawer slid in just fine.

Our bed came with several extra screws.  This was a good thing, because the screws are a bit soft and the heads get stripped easily.  Be very careful while using your screwdriver.

The bed looked great once assembled.  I was so excited to start using it that I immediately put a few clothes in it- the next day I pulled out a shirt and it smelled VERY strongly of processed wood.  I aired the drawers out a week (leaving the drawers open all day) and the smell dissipated greatly.  I would recommend letting the drawers air out for at least a week in a well-ventilated room before you really use them.

Overall, if you can't afford a "real" wood storage bed, this is a good alternative.  I recommend it.

Update, six years later:
While the bed is still pretty and functional, it has required some tweaking/repairs to get right. Several drawer bottoms have partially popped out and have needed to be repaired over the years. They can't take a lot of weight or pressure, so don't stuff them silly; the under mattress slats bow and wiggle around a bit, especially if you are heavier or move around lot in your sleep, and need to be periodically adjusted for maximum support ( I am thinking of just putting plywood or a bunkie board down to eliminate the issue altogether); and the bed wobbled (swayed) with too much movement, so I bought metal brackets from the hardware store and I reinforced the joints and that took care of that issue. The bed is a little high for short folks, so a step stool or a bench at the foot of the bed would be a good call if you are super short or less mobile.  Last, you can't place an end table next to the bed, so you'll you need a headboard, wall mounted shelf, or a slim sofa table used as a headboard to give you space to put things like glasses, tissue, books, a lamp, or your alarm clock. I went with the sofa table.

All in all, it has held up to years of use. It isn't perfect, but with a few adjustments, it works fine for me, and has eliminated the need for a bulky dresser in my small bedroom.

I searched high and low for a new bed frame to fit our new king sized mattress. I finally decided on this one. It was nice looking and fit the budget.

Overall, it's a nice bed, but I'll list some of the pros/cons below.

Pros:
-Affordable
-Nice looking
-Fairly sturdy
-Rivets are real (unlike other beds with faux ones)

Cons:
-Huge pain to put together. My husband is a very handy guy, and is an experienced veteran of putting together all kinds of furniture (...and lots and lots of IKEA) He was very frustrated with the assembly of this one. He said that one of the center cross support legs was threaded too large for the screws that came with it, so that provided an annoying detour in assembly while he figured out how to fix it.

-Odd smell from the fabric, I'm going to try and Febreze it and see what happens

-The black panel around the base of the bed is just that--a panel. It's mainly for show and isn't super sturdy.

-The headboard wasn't what I was expecting in terms of size. I used the measurements online to decide, and it's not quite as large as I'd hoped. Once the pillows are on, it sort of dwarfs the headboard. It is also much like a standalone headboard, it just attaches to a frame...see attached picture, it only goes as far as the start of the mattress and stops.

-There's one spot where the rivets aren't exactly spaced right. (See attached photo).

If I had known all of these things before, I may not have purchased it, but it does look nice, so I am happy.

The fabric is basically black velour--so don't expect velvet! I attached photos to try and show. It's a decent fabric in my opinion.

Hope this is helpful for someone!

Very nice but a difficult assembly to properly construct--a warning that when snapped together it should be for final assembly only is required.

This is a well made set.  It looks nice and we like using it.  However, be aware, you will need a drill, a wrench, and a screwdriver.  There are no instructions for how to put it together.  I figured it out fairly quickly, but if you have never assembled furniture before it may be take some doing for the tabletop.  The holes are not predrilled in the tabletop so you will need to line up the pieces and drill them yourself.

Nice bed but difficult to put together.  Some of the screws did not go into the wood smoothly and I had to buy more screws to make it work.

We ordered this bed for my daughter.  It arrived securely wrapped in plastic with all the corners extra padded to prevent dings.  I was still surprised that it was shipped with free shipping.

The bed looks nice assembled. Assembly was not a difficult as I was anticipating based upon other reviews, but we have assembled many pieces before.  Much was intuitive which was great since the directions are big on pictures and short on words.  My teenager and I assembled the bed in a bit over two hours.  It was definitely easier once we spread all the parts out on the floor - each piece was clearly labeled with a stamped number/letter.

There are a few extra parts in the box which would be helpful if something got lost during the process.

I do wish the drawer slides were metal.  Time will tell how well the plastic slides hold up.

The handles on the drawers are definitely sharp and could cause an injury if you are not careful. I am glad this is for a teen.  If it was for a younger child, I would be a bit concerned since they are not always aware of their surroundings.

Overall, we are pleased with the bed and how it looks. I am hopeful that it will hold up well and give us a few years of use.

Bed was a good purchase. Headboard looks smaller with a mattress so pay attention to those pictures,  and less to the main picture. I would not call this bed rock solid in that it does shake when someone moves. Overall a very nice looking and easy to assemble bedframe

The bed looks exactly as advertised and it is quite easy to assemble. The only thing that must be kept in mind is that the seller does not provide a screwdriver in the assembly set. The screw driver is necessary to fix the slats on the sides of the bed frame. So one needs to have one before he/she starts assembling. Also, this bed does not look good with a 6 inch mattress, a thicker one probably a 10 inch mattress will go properly with the look of the mattress.

I love the style of this bed, its beautiful! Although its not the easiest to put together, it is full functioning, easy to pull down or put away. It doesnt take up that much room either.

A good buy for the price, but be prepared for a difficult assembly process.

The directions included are minimal at best.  As a previous reviewer suggested, don't tighten the screws that require the included allen wrench until you confirm that the assembly is level.  Also, be prepared to either drill or tap (using a nail & a hammer) a shallow starter hole in the shelves when ready to attach them.  The bottom shelf, in particular, is challenging.  All that being said, the necessary parts were included, labeled, and in perfect condition upon receipt.

The finished product is attractive and sturdy.

My husband and I love this bed frame.  We think it is very attractive and looks well made.  We received the item very promptly considering it was a freight delivery.  It was very easy to assemble (less than an hour).  The only advice we would give is to assemble the entire bed frame loosely in order to line up the bolt holes and then tighten the whole frame down once it is fully assembled.

Nice bed for the price.  You do not get select hardwood construction, but you are not paying for that, nor would I expect it at this price point.  The plywood used looks nice, and it is really only noticeable at the top of the headboard/footboard vertical pieces where the layers are visible. The directions could have been clearer, but with a little study and common sense, it is pretty easy to decipher.  One of the things that is not clear is that after putting the head and foot boards together, you need to flip them around before adding the rails.  Also pay attention to the way the two pieces of the rails go together. The directions only show the use of a peg on one side, but you need to do the same on the other side as well.  The slats seem a little weak, but after putting the mattress on, they seem to be fine.  My teenage son says it comfortable, and it held my 200+ pounds; however, I don't think they would survive a kid jumping on the bed or a couple getting frisky.  I may get a bunky board or cut a sheet of plywood for extra support as some point, but it is fine for now.

For the price, looks very nice. Assembly, quite a bit although(mostly) well laid out. Three+ hours, phillips screwdriver, 5/16 wrench( or even pliers if you're not particular) .  One tip: when you are assembling the support legs, at the top make sure the holes the main bucket attaches to are as close together as possible as the two top pieces are mirror images and the holes are offset..I have only used it once so I'll write again if I find I am mistaken as to it's functioning.

This bed frame is a great value for the price. Its an attractive black faux leather and wood construction. It arrived in a large, heavy flat box that I had to drag to my daughters room. The construction is dependent on a whole bunch of bolts and short connecting boards. I needed my sons help to assemble it and it still took two hours. But once we were finally done, we were left with a great looking bed and my daughters approval.

The headboard is nice.  My engineer husband is good at problem solving so installation was doable.  Those who are less handy might be a little frustrated.
