Trundle was purchased nearly 2 years ago and has been in service in the kiddos room ever since. I dont really having an issue putting it all together, on that the middle mattress support bars was a bit tedious to install. That said, theyve all seem to have head up over the years (see picture they were taken July 10, 2020).
Issues Ive notice over the years, or at least something worth noting are the following.
1) Some of the bolts that hold the frame together tended to come loose over time. Specifically the ones that held the legs to the frame. This is probably did to the vibration and overall twist and jerking of the frame while the kiddo jumped in the mattress or when the bedframe got here or there for cleaning underneath. Solution was simple, I used some of the teflone tape plumbers use to stop the bolts from wiggling out. It what I had on hand when I noticed the problem.
2) The casters on the trundle arent the best. They work OK, but it felt more like I was dragging than rolling when I pulled the bed out. It is on carpet, so that might have had something to do with it.
3) The bed squeaks, not a lot, but I definitely know when the kiddo gets on or off the bed. As far as I can remember, its always done this.
Overall, dispute the minor grievances, and they are minor, I would have no issues recommended this bed to others looking for a similar solution. The price was right, and its always handy to have a spare mattress laying out for when cousins come to visit.
Nice looking bed frame for the price
