Ive been re-designing a modern, minimalist loft space, and needed a new matching bed frame. I got this frame (queen size) to try. Its been great.
UNPACKING
The frame arrives in one long and heavy box. I carried the full box up to my 3rd floor, but it was quite a feat. If you need to get this to a 2nd or 3rd floor, Id recommend taking up a few pieces at a time.
The parts are all packed securely, and everything arrived with zero damage. The parts are all labelled with little numbered stickers, which are are easy to remove once the bed is assembled. Parts are protected with foam inserts, and every part is in a plastic bag. This produces a lot of plastic waste, which I dont like, but it is less than other items I have received with an equal number of parts.
ASSEMBLY
The hardware is contained in a blister pack with clearly labelled letters. It also comes with a wrench, which is all you need to assemble the entire frame.
The instructions are visual, with references to the labelled numbers and letters of the parts and hardware. The process is generally intuitive, and the instructions are clear enough to identify what you need. In a couple of places, its difficult to see what direction parts are meant to go in, but if you take it slow it does make sense. A few worded instructions here and there might have helped.
It took me about 1.5 hours to go from unpacking, to fully assembled, to getting rid of the waste.
CONSTRUCTION
Im very happy with the construction of this frame. When everything is screwed together, and all the support rails are in place, its quite steady. I dropped my rather heavy queen-sized mattress on the frame, and it fit perfectly. I have slept on the frame for a few nights now, and it is firm and silent.
The product description says the frame does not requite a box spring, and this is true. In fact, I found that my mattress feels firmer on this frame than on my old one.
ATTRACTIVENESS
The frame is very minimal, which is what I wanted. With the sheets and blanket on the bed, all that shows is the headboard, and a little bit of the legs. The headboard contains a very tasteful wood plank and black metal frame. The finish on the wood is great. It all looks just right for the space I put it in.
CONCLUSION
This is a worthy bed frame. Its solid, and has a minimalist-style attractiveness. Except for some small details in the instructions, I highly recommend it.
