Great product. I read all the negative reviews and still purchased the nomad bed frame. The common negative was poor quality assembly. I found all the pieces to be cut to precise dimensions and the frame assemblies easy. There is no way slats could fall out or there could be squeaks if every bolt and screw is properly tightened. Herein may ly the problem. Some people are not adept at assembly of furniture. I have been assembling (knock down) furniture for over 40 years and this is a simple assembly but for others beware. I love solid wood and simple design. I also got the drawers. Could not have been happier.
This bedframe is very nice, sturdy, and easy to assemble. The only problem was that the slats were cracked and not solid wood and they had splinters/slivers in them and the center rail screw holes on brackets were slightly off so unable to screw in,, But... i contacted the company and they have excellent customer service. They issued a full refund. Once I make new slats and put in a few different screws the bed frame will be great!
Great product!! We were nervous about the one bad review so we were careful to follow directions....but it was mindlessly easy!!! My 15 year old son now has a bed he can fold and store or keep out because it looks good, is sturdy, makes no noise and is made out of pure wood!! 5 stars!!!
Its a good value for the money. The stock photo is a grain representation, but the lighting and angle make the bed look higher off the ground that it actually is in real life. It was normal to put together. My teenager and I did it an hour following the directions, no mistakes and all the parts were used, took about an hour. Would recommend it with no concerns.
So after 2 years of owning this bed it has unfortunately developed terrible creeks and moans and squeaks. Ive tried so many things like bees wax and taking it apart and putting it back together but the squeaks come back sadly. It was a good frame for about a year and is nice that it folds.
At first I was not able to get one of the screws into the thread but customer service was very easy to work with. Months later and I love this frame! It is the perfect height if you dont want a low platform but but also dont want to buy a box spring. Would buy again if needed.
Stylish, easy to assemble, and a great bed so far.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Something simple, lightweight, and not ugly. Another reviewer said they were looking for a minimalist bed and I think this fits that description nicely. It really turns into a nice solid wood bed with no extraneous or overly complicated components, springs, cloth/slats etc. Very well designed from a non-bed-designers opinion.
it up is a little awkward but I intend to do it very rarely. Built it in my living room, folded it up, and moved it to the bedroom where it will stay as my bed.
Since there are no lips to hold the mattress in place, you may want to consider some sticky/tacky strips if you want to have the bed in the middle of a wall, easy enough to get. Mine is in the corner against two walls and is fine.
Take your time building it and read the instructions... seriously. Open the box up, have some tea, read the instructions, and identify the pieces.
Assembly is mostly just pushing in pins or dowels and then pressing the various pieces together. Might take a little work to push some pins in if your hands are soft, keep something like a small rubber mallet or clean shoe to press in the pins fully (I used the end of my screwdriver.)
Important: the wood screws are not that hard to get in, you can use a manual/hand screwdriver. You just need to press the screw down into the wood beneath while tightening the screw and it will catch in the wood and begin sink fully.
From what I can see, any bad reviews should be ignored. Its not creaking, it was easy enough for a competent person to put together with only a screwdriver, it feels like a real solid base, and looks great in my room.
If something is not fitting/working, its almost guaranteed either user error or a part is defective (Im sure theyd send you the pieces if it was really missing or inoperable, which seems unlikely based on packaging and design.)
In one pic, youll see I ended up taping down the pins with painters tape. I was imagining that theres no way they wouldnt move about a bit and make some noise so took preemptive measures before I put the mattress down.
Great bed, good job!

Wrong item sent
Parts look good. But I was sent the wrong product. I bought a king size frame and was sent a twin or full.
Solid and sturdy , easy to assemble
This bedframe is very nice, sturdy, and easy to assemble. The only problem was that the slats were cracked and not solid wood and they had splinters/slivers in them and the center rail screw holes on brackets were slightly off so unable to screw in,, But... i contacted the company and they have excellent customer service.

Perfect

Make sure you leave two lets off to get through your door if your door is too small.
This product is amazing! Its very sturdy and holds up well. Lots of space down below for extra storage. Easy to assemble, and quick too.
Relatively easy to put together!!

Good for about a year then got loud
So after 2 years of owning this bed it has unfortunately developed terrible creeks and moans and squeaks. Ive tried so many things like bees wax and taking it apart and putting it back together but the squeaks come back sadly. It was a good frame for about a year and is nice that it folds.

No instructions but easy enough to assemble
Bedframe is great. No instructions but it was to figure out.
Yep, buy it.
