Low to the ground just like it says. FYI the low slung 6 inch model is actually 7 to base of mattress. We bought this frame because our dog is getting old and really loves to sleep with us.
We knew this going in but its worth mentioning: if you have a robot vacuum, there is a rail all the way around this bed at the floor so it cant go under to clean. Over all quality and design are good. Super simple bed frame at good price.
Arrived without damage. Assembly was straight forward. Wood slats are thin and bow once someone lays on the memory foam mattress. An average playful child or heavy person have them sagging in the middle if not broken in no time. You would need to purchase more slats or put a sheet of plywood over them to beef up the support. Overall it looks good, just lacking in wood slat strength for a frame advertising it is mattress ready / no box spring needed.
I read through all the reviews including the not so positive ones. Ive honestly have had good success with a lot of the products so I opted to take a chance (this particular model was the right size, right height that I wanted, and at the right price for the guest room). The frame was well labeled and pretty easy to assemble / took me about 40min total doing it myself though I did have my partner help me lay the mattress evenly on. The wood slats could have been more hardy, but once the mattress weight is evenly laid on, it felt firm and sturdy enough testing it out (our combined weight is about 350 lbs). Didnt feel any creaking from the slats or frame (mine is set on carpeting which Im sure helps). Labels were a bit sticky but nothing a bit of goo gone couldnt handle.
But after 2 months, the trash Allen/head screws that come with it were loose. It was swaying and creaking, repaired it then. I bought this in March, and now in August, Ive had to take my bed off of it to repair it. It was swaying and creaking again and then got a dip in the center. I took it off to see that the single center bar, with two posts on either end with one screw each that was meant to hold the majority of the weight of a bed plus the people, had cracked and split in half. Not bent, straight cracked, nearly in half. One post had completely fallen off and rolled away and thats where this post failed. Im not sure what caused it. If the post came off and then it cracked, why is the post able to unscrew itself so simply? Since the screw on the post was undamaged. Or if the bar failed first and then the post just fell away. Which I believe was the latter, as the failure was where the post was. Which I sort of figured that a bed frame marketed towards adults with master bedrooms would be able to hold the weight of a 250lb man and occasionally a 40 pound dog. Regardless. I repaired it with some self tappers and old posts I had lying around. Used 3 this time, ends and middle. And tightened the allen screws again which had been so loose that they required multiple turns to retighten.
I do have some s stuff that is great. A s pedestal fan I have has been going strong for over a year. But this was definitely a cheap failure. A 110 failure. if youre tight on a budget and need this, or need one for a child. I bet this would be perfect. But not forever.
this frame was the correct solution and size for my problem, and went together super simply.
HOWEVER, it had three super annoying flaws.
FIRSTLY / Im pretty sure they super glued the parts stickers onto the thing
SECOND OFF / Its got the MOST ANNOYING few MM gap between the center brace and top bar of the frame on both ends
AND LASTLY / it was just straight missing the velcro on 1/4th of it to hold the slats down. No evidence of it ever being affixed. Like it just got completely forgotten.
Oh, also the arcs dont go 1/4 way up the mattress or more like I kinda pictured them doing, but that may just be a personal gripe.
Overall, yeah I think its gonna get the job done, but if youre gonna cheap out on the build this hard, charge 20 bucks less.
As soon as it was put together (which was an easy one person job) and I got the mattress on the frame I sat down super slowly and carefully (Ive had bad experiences with my putting together stuff in the past) and the second my full weight was on it (150) there was a pretty loud crack/creak noise. I guess some of the slats splintered a little but none fully broke. No issues since then other than if theres to much commotion Fingers crossed!
So its been a little while now and so I figured Id update this a little. The bed frame has held up for the most part. Overall, Im still pretty satisfied with the purchase. Well worth the money paid.
This platform was very easy to assemble but its very low to the ground. I added four supports thinking that they could go on each corner of the frame, but I need to get four more to make it sturdy.
There arent seem to be any holes or brackets available to attach a headboard Hope this helps.

Great economy bed frame. Not robot vacuum friendly.

Decent
it was hard to fit together cause it was slight crooked around those areas.

It functions but I will inevitably need a new one and it wont be this again

Kids bedroom
I liked that the bed wasnt damaged. Easy to assemble and sturdy.

JUNK JUNK JUNK
stronger than this. Absolutely a waste of money
Waiting and staying optimistic

Easy to assemble but low to the floor.
