I have been reading some of the reviews about this platform bed and some people definitely are way too picky. First off this bed looks awesome when it is fully completed! If you can take your time and follow the directions this bed will go together perfectly. Everything fits together with no flaws when you do it right. All of the building is pretty basic, its just a lot of screwing screws. There was not one challenging part and the instructions were very well written and easy to understand with visuals. I put 2 corner braces (Top Bottom) on each side just to give it some extra support and sturdiness.
The worst part about the bed were the pieces of wood that the actual mattress sits on. There was 9 long planks of wood that go vertically across. Personally I found them pretty cheaply made and decided to buy some plywood to cut out and place on top of it. Fixes any potential problems and gives a sturdier support for the mattress. The outside can scratch fairly easily, so just be careful when around it. We bought the headboard to go with it and it makes the entire bed look that much better!
We purchased this when it was on sale for $297 and for that price it cant be beat. There was a total of about 4-5 hours spent putting it together with one person. Your going to need a Phillips head screwdriver and hammer. Honestly the hardest part of this whole bed was breaking down the 3 boxes it all came in to throw into the trash. Those things were double or triple layered with cardboard box.
I definitely am glad I purchased this storage bed and its exactly what I expected.
The size of the bedframe is not queen, is shorter. Without head board as seen in the picture. Very bad product, the materials are very weak. You must move the plataform very carefully to avoid the damage of any part. Lost money.
Before I purchased this item, I chatted through the 24/7 customer chatt service with visiondecor.
Even though I asked some random and foolish questions, they answered me very kindly and detailed.
When I received the product, the bed was bigger than what I expected (which is my fault cause I should have check the size before I purchase the product), so I talked again with them through the online, and they kindly offered me to exchange the product without any extra charges....this is actually the best service I ever had in my 3-4 year .com experience,and now I even feel proud of myself that I have decide to buy products from them.
The vision Decor covered the whole shipping payment for free, eventhough it was not on the contact list.
Now I am just sitting on the chair to wait UPS pick up my old bed and bring a new one. If you are planning to get any home furnitures, you should go to [...] and check. Seriously.
Pros:
Looks really nice
Drawers are a fairly good size
Saves a lot of space (vital in a NYC apartment)
Comfortable
Cons:
Took a long time to build and a long time to ship
One of the drawers doesnt work properly and I cannot figure out what is wrong or how to fix it
Cannot have bedside tables with a bed with drawers (something I did not think of till it arrived)
I like it, I am very pleased. I hope to have it last for awhile. I am a little worried about it during our upcoming move. I would do it again with the knowledge of not expecting it to arrive too fast or for it to be easy to put together but I honestly really love this bed it fits exactly with my room.
The bed fits are needs for the price, but you get what you pay for the material used is still out gasing and leaves a bad odor. The drawers work and look okay but will always have to be carefull pulling them out. The bed does look very nice with a queen mattress only no box springs needed.
This product is exactly what youd expect for the price. It seems sturdy enough, but not very user friendly to move around. I completely expect to disassemble and reassemble when I move.
The bed was delivered without the assembly instructions, but the company emailed me the instructions within a day. These were very detailed and easy to read. The bed was very easy to put together. I did the work by myself in less than 3 hours.
My boyfriends mother ordered this bed for my boyfriend and I after we moved into our new apartment. I put it together fairly easily but it was missing parts (some nails). While the instructions were clear the draws didnt fit quite right into the slots and are crooked on both sides. The slats make loud popping type noises when anyone (including our 25 lb dog) gets onto the bed, which apparently our neighbors below us can hear. While this frame was very cheap and has lasted several months I would have much rather spent a bit extra for something that actually looked put together. I really hate looking at all the draws which some dont close all the way, others are crooked, and the mattress doesnt quite fit properly. All in all I would recommend saving your money and buying something else!
I bought this with the matching bookcase headboard and I have many positive comments about both. First - the price. Out of four local furniture stores, only one of them had a similar item and it cost over $3,000. Second - shipping. I was certain that at least one of the boxes would arrive with a crushed corner or dented flat spot (dont they always?), but the items arrived without dents or bruises even though the exterior cardboard took a few hits. The packing is ingenious and sufficient . . . and heavy. Third - the construction took a lot of time, but it was enjoyable. I worked slowly by myself over several days, gluing every joint with carpenters glue where ever bare wood touched bare wood. I did use a third hand helper a couple of times, but very, very rarely. If you take your time and work smartly, you could actually assemble this thing by yourself. The glue will make a big difference in the final result. My bed and headboard are sturdy as a rock.
We were sleeping on a water bed previously, and never did a night pass when both of us would not wake up between two and three AM to visit the bathroom. Ive put a Select Comfort mattress on this platform frame, and now we sleep straight through the night, only getting up in the middle of the night about two or three times a month. The big difference is that this frame absolutely does not move one millimeter when either partner gets up or moves around. You wont be wakened by the other person so you will sleep better without interruption. I cannot believe how much of a difference this made in our sleep quality.
For the price and the functionality, this bed frame is a great value. It will not win any beauty contests, but it looks great for what it is, and it is not flimsy. Im glad that I chose this item.
Its beautiful enough for the cost but first time I tried to move it it began to disintegrate. Blech. So we are stuck with it where it is... No idea what its fate will be when we move.
I am completely satisfied with the entire process. Not only was the best price of all the providers, the shipping was free.
If there is one complaint and it really isnt a complaint. It would be that the pieces werent labeled and that made the assembly process more difficult. But, it was fairly clear cut from every other process.
All in all, I am 100% happ.

Very bad product. Dont pay more than US 150 dollars for it.

If you cant make it good dont make it.
