Great value for the price! Sturdy. Very fast shipping. This bed is Beige not gray.
This bed is an excellent value for 199. Nobody paid me to write this and I got the bed with my old cold hard earned cash. I called the company by the phone number provided to inquire about the color before I ordered. As for their customer service, it’s very easy to talk to a person. It is indeed a beige not the slightly gray tone the first pic indicates. Nor is it as white as the second product pic indicates. I uploaded my own image that I believe shows a more true color.
I was a little skeptical at first as there were no reviews. I decided to take a leap of faith as the other reviews from this brand were also very good. This bed took me 2.5 hours or so to put together. This is mostly bc you have to use an Allen wrench for most of it. There is no way around it unless you have fancy Smancy adapters for your drill. I do not, so I went manual with the tools provided. #protip: do not tighten anything on the bed (except for the leg attchemmet to the headboard, and the individual feet) until all parts of the bed are together. You can put the nuts and bolts in place but that’s it. If you screw them early, it can be difficult to put other bolts in holes. (That’s what she said). This all being said. Once the bed is together and tightened, it’s very sturdy, you will need someone else to help you move it after it’s together(because it’s right and awkward) so I suggest moving it where you want it before tightening it fully.
The instructions leave something to be desired. If you lack some common sense they might be a bit difficult. #protip: save the long bolts to use in the metal part of the frame, the short bolts are not long enough to screw the nuts on.
As far as hardware goes, everything was there. Exactly the right amount of screws, bolts, and nuts. However even with using washers liberally, I had a ton left over. I’m not sure what I will do with the plethora of washers but I’m sure I’ll figure something out.
If you can not find all your hardware do not panic. The back of the headboard is Velcro and the parts are stashed in there. I also like this because it Velcro’s flush and I can hide things in there. If you like hiding stuff then this headboard is for you. Plenty of room for kinky hardware or paraphernalia. I’m not saying I have any of that but I might want some.
If something goes wrong in the near future. I will give a detailed update on what acrobatic activities caused the demise. However, as sturdy as it appears, I can not see anything going wrong.
