A very nice bed
We loved the price and the room that we would obtain with the under the bed drawers. King size bed, in a Queen sized room… didn’t work with all of the extra chests that we needed to house our clothing. This worked out perfectly for us. We need to reach down now, to get our things, but we have found the drawers easy to manage and had already learned from the reviews, that they might turn a bit and need a nudge for them to be flush when closing. That helped us make up our minds and made it easy to accept that little issue and work right though it. Great looking and easy to set up! We are slower than a lot of people, but a few hours in, we were placing our mattress on top and… taking a well deserved NAP. Recommend for those looking for a sturdy bed with drawers for a small space. It’s a little low, so get a 12-14″ mattress or use box springs with it for more height. We are older, so the 12″ memory foam mattress works well. We can easily sit on the edge and are able to stand with little effort. It is a nice change for us. The headboard is perfect for us, too, with it’s modern and sophisticated look and the shelf on top for nightlights, phones and decorations. The plug in the center of the shelf is wonderful to have and the back of the shelf is just right to keep your things from falling behind the bed. Great bed. We love it!

Excellent bed frame for the cost
I purchased the ANCTOR Full Size Bed Frame with 3 Drawers, Upholstered Platform Bed in Grey. I had no problems with the bed frame itself. I would recommend obtaining this bed frame if you like the style.I had to pay extra for shipping. The box it is packaged in is about 24″x58″ and listed at 106 lbs. The box arrived damaged but there was no damage that could not be fixed. The only damage I discovered was the metal frame support eyelets were bent (see picture). This was simple for me to fix with a pair of pliers. All the fabric and wood pieces were not damaged. I am impressed with the packaging.PARTS: Packaging all the parts into a relatively small 24″x58″ box was impressive. I found no defects in any of the parts, disregarding the damage occurred by shipping to the a few metal pieces. Some of the wire frames of the drawers were slightly bend. This could have been from the shipping damage I suppose. I bent the frames back into place. The nylon drawer bottoms are annoying for me. I do not see the point but I guess it is a nice option for some. I will line the bottom with cardboard from the shipping box. The fabric seems durable and there were no stitching problems. The fabric is not super soft, but I do not expect it to be that soft. It is the same color of gray I was expecting and what was advertised. The wood platform slats had no issues either. They are not finish quality, so they are slightly rough and I did not notice any knots. I did not get any splinters, nor did I experience discomfort installing the support slats. The electric charging box works as expected. The boards attached to the top of the head board had not defects. One piece had some glue on it. WARNING: if you remove glue from either of these two pieces, be extremely careful. One can damage the “sticker” that decorates these boards.INSTALLATION: Very easy. The manual is very IKEA like. It is mostly pictures and some important notes. The screws and parts were 100% labeled correctly. Orientation is clearly shown in the steps. I took inventory of all the parts. 100% correct. But, through out the process, I lost two washers. I suspect one of my cats had more fun than me. I am very experienced in cheap furniture assembly. I used my hand flex shaft screw driver (helps a lot and saves time) with a 4.0 and 5.0 hex instead of the supplied ones. I did not find the need to use a drill. I did assemble the drawers first, mainly to remove parts. DRAWER WHEELS: be gentle when snapping them into place. When I attempted to slide two sets of wheels forward, I broke the front snap piece. I am too strong I guess. It does NOT affect the structure, but was more frustrating. Do not tighten any screws down until all the screws are in their holes for the part one is assembling. This will assist aligning parts correctly. I had zero issues with alignment. I did this for steps 3 & 4 (Headboard) and steps 9,10,11 and 12 (Frame). I just hand tightened the screws in all the steps, and then once I was ready, I tightened all of the screws. Total time to assemble was about 2 hours, at a relaxed pace. Only one point I was confused in the instructions. Step 6 has an L Brace that screws ONLY into the side of the headboard, no the top board that has the electrical outlet. The non screwed side I guess is physical support only. I think there is one error in the instructions, Step 4. The lower horizontal metal support brace of the headboard shows that it is screwing into the lower metal vertical supports. The picture shows screw hole on the vertical supports, but the screw holes are on the opposite side. This is evident in the zoom in area. In fact, in Step 3, it has a specific note for orientation. Follow this note and all will be well, despite the possible incorrect depiction.SUMMARY: I like this frame. It was fairly cheap and shipped quick and easy to assemble. Much better than the expensive local stores. It does not shake a lot. The box spring and mattress shake more than the actual frame. I think this is good. It has side ledges so that the mattress will not slide off the frame easily. The drawers, while not attached to the frame, slide easily on my carpet. I have not seen any frames that have the drawers attached to the frame in this price range. The side drawers do attach physically. The foot drawer is a flush and friction fit. I used the box spring to raise the height. I think it looks ok against the headboard. If one is expecting to prevent animals from getting under the bed, this may not work well. If the headboard is flush with the wall, I think it will help prevent animals from getting under the bed. If it can not be flush, like my setup, then animals can get underneath the bed through the back of the headboard. Also, if the mattress or box spring does not fill the entire frame, animals could sneak into the bottom of the bed, through the area where the wood slats are. My solution, I attached cardboard to the back sides to prevent my cats from access under the bed. Not elegant, but no person will see it. Pillows might also work. Sadly, the width of this frame is a little wider than my full size box spring and mattress. The width is correctly advertised. I just did not think of measuring my mattress. But, with my queen sized comforter, I can not see the extra 2 inches.

King Bed-Beige
I was hesitant to buy this bed.. While it was the style and color I wanted, and the price was attractive, I was scared the quality was going to be Walmart grade… Since Amazon has a great return policy, I took the leap. Glad I did!*The bed isn’t Williams Sonoma level quality, but it is nice! It’s sturdy! We sleep just fine, no creaks or noises. So far, it’s a solid bed.*The bed is quite literally, on the ground, so a 14″ mattress is suggested for little height (we did not use a box spring).*Negative, the drawers make the bed seem of less quality. They’re more of “baskets” vs drawers. Meaning, they aren’t on a track. Also, the bottom of the basket(s) is fabric. The drawers, aka baskets, roll in and out (on wheels). There’s a latch to keep it in place once closed. Despite its flaws, I still LOVE the storage. I use the baskets for things I barely wear (i.e swimwear).ASSEMBLY… Well, that’s a pain! There’s a lot of pieces and it’s overwhelming. My husband is pretty handy and this took him about 2 1/2 hours to put this bed together. He said it was easier putting together IKEA furniture. Never-the-less, it was worth his sweat and half on tears because the bed looks great!*I don’t use the outlets, so no opinion on the reliability of the electrical.

Get the frame!
Buy the bedframe! This is the one!It took me a while to research which one to buy and after looking into different brands but this is definitely the one!Only thing is it is very heavy! Our bedroom is upstairs and had to bring up piece by piece. You will need some time and patience! If you have someone else helping you have an extra set of Allen wrenches it will help you get it done quickly! If you love puzzles then this is the one for you. It is not hard to put together just time consuming but I will say it is very sturdy.I’m using dream cloud mattress on a platform bedframe and it is the perfect hight.The storage is great and large enough to fit small storage bins which helps organize.This is worth the money and if you are on the fence I’m here to tell you get the bed frame!
