I love the daybed I sleep in it every night. the room I am in is shaped funny and for everything I wanted to put in it the daybed works just great. I am an adult and it is very sturdy.
This bed comes in 3 boxes easily carried and set up. All tools needed to put this together are included with ALL hardware needed to assemble it. I would attach
The
Long back piece of the day bed to the two TALL bedposts together FIRST (back and arms wrought iron in 1box/4 posts in 1 box (2 of each size). Next attach the arm shorter wrought iron to the shorter post (the widest part will attach to the long constructed piece, this may take 2 people or prop the headboard (long section you put together first up and attach one of the side arms. Once you have both side arms on put box 3 with the mattress deck together. THIS DAYBED COMES WITH 1-MOST DO NOT. BE SURE THE ARROW STICKERS ON THE END ARE POINTING IN THE *SAME* DIRECTION. The poles stablize and the U joints secure, they bolt under like a U in the center. Make DOUBLY SURE ALL POST, MATTRESS DECK screws are TIGHTENED securely,but NOT OVERTIGHTENED. I added black thick grosgrain ribbon tripple looped from 3 places on the back headboard to the mattress deck and knotted-looks like its supposed to be there. My mattress kept sliding back under the headboard to the wall 3 to 4 inches. Solution works perfectly and looks great. One idea if you have this problem. The bed looks and works great. I bought a heavier duty pop up trundle and will be making it into a King as needed for guests.
Built this by myself. Its very comfortably sized for one person and 2 cats. Instructions were easy to understand. Parts were easy to identify. Tools were provided. I purchased a new 11 inch mattress designed for platform beds and am very comfortable. I dont feel the spring link at all. You can sit on it comfortably with your feet just touching the floor, or you can sit entirely on the bed with your back supported by the backrest.
Bought this bed to quickly turn a room into an extra bedroom for guests following Super-Storm Sandy. It arrived quickly. The assembly directions were vague and incompletebut after a while we figured it all out on our own. Its sturdy and looks really good. Got it at a great price through an outside dealer on . Saved over $100 compared to a well known, bargain brick and mortar store. Definitely recommend it. The wood color and quality is surprisingly good. Has a high quality appearance and feel but a discount price. Cant beat that.
Last night I put together my daybed - it probably took a little longer than it would have, if I had found instructions for assembly - but all-in-all, it was pretty intuitive. The quality of the materials is good - not outstanding - but everything assembled easily and enough bolts/nuts/washers were supplied. They even provide a little stamped open-end wrench and an Allen wrench. Once all the bolts were tightened, it seemed very sturdy. Im not sure the welds that hold the bed support are solid enough to support a very heavy person over a long period of time - but Im using this as an occasional guest bed and my reading nook.
Im a bit bugged by the bolt heads that are black and exposed on the wood posts; and one of the posts has a finger-joint thats pretty obvious because the two sections accepted the stain differently. But for a piece of furniture in this price range, its really very nice. Solid *uniform-grain* wood, and countersunk bolt-holes with woods plugs would have cost me two or three times as much money. And I doubt my guests will notice things like that anyway.
My only other concern is the mattress support: when its assembled, theres a raised Spine down the middle. Im using an old (cheap) innerspring mattress, so will probably be OK - but if one were to use a thinner, dense mattress (think futon) - you might feel that raised section?? The good news is that its NOT going to sag in the middle. Ever.

A good value and it looks great.

Nice daybed for the money!
