Great bed at a great price
This bed frame is perfect. It’s well made and has a nice finish and color. It was packaged very well and carefully. All the screws are marked clearly and go along with the instruction steps. The instructions were easy to follow, but could have been a little clearer in some steps.. but overall they were great, and the bed went together quickly. They include a little ratchet tool that made it even easier. The frame, once put together is light and easy to move around, yet sturdy and well made. It looks like it is way more expensive than what it’s priced at. I’m very happy with this frame!

Excellent bedframe, love it!
Where do I even begin? If you like the look of this bed, just buy it. From opening the packaging to putting on my sheets, I have zero regrets about this purchase.Pros- Packaging is solid and clean. The bed was in a box within the shipping box. The white protective foam inside, they’re wrapped in plastic! Yes, wrapped! Maybe it’s because I haven’t bought any furniture in a while, but that was a pleasant surprise. No more little white specs flying all over the place!- Assembly – It comes with all the tools you’ll need along with some spare bits. The best part was the little ratcheting screwdriver. Sure, the hex bit is fixed and you can’t use it for anything else, but man does it make assembly go smoothly. I didn’t even need to use the included allen wrench. The instructions and pre-drilled holes made putting this thing together simple. I didn’t have to bend or force anything to fit, everything just came together.- Build Quality – For this price, this solid wood bed is a great value. I’ve been sleeping on it for several weeks now and it is stable with no squeaks. The wood pieces themselves look very nice.Cons- Assembly – I’m reaching here, but I HAD to put something down as a con. The wooden slats that line the bottom of the bed were not sanded down completely, so if you’re not careful, a splinter may ruin your day. Also, those slats are stapled to some velcro straps at the ends which line up with the bedframe. I found myself pulling them out over and over to get them in place (maybe having 2 people at both sides would’ve made this step easier?).Other- The only “nice to have” idea I would drop to the manufacturer would be the inclusion of some felt pads to apply to the feet. Folks with carpet won’t have any use for these, but us hardwood folks always appreciate some protection from furniture scrapes. I had some extra laying around, so I cut them and attached them to the four feet and the center bar feet.

The product is as advertised. Good quality.
Arrived undamaged. Sturdy, well made solid wood and some metal parts. Very easy to assemble (just a few steps). Looks great. Canât beat this frame for the price.

Totally Awesome Bed!!!
I was very hesitant to order this bed, for a lot of reasons. Some of which are that these “assemble yourself” furniture things have, in the past (NOT Zinus), have been very difficult to assemble. Things like missing parts, missing instructions (!) (you name it). Gave me a definite pause.Add all of this to the fact that I am female, and (how to put this?) “older”, and don’t have a lot of experience with assembling things (i.e., mostly poor experiences, as mentioned above) and that a purchase of this bed would make it THE most expensive single item I have ever purchased on Amazon – me, an Amazon customer of 20+ years standing – just about made me decide to give this bed a pass.Boy, am I glad I read the reviews (more than 20,000 at this writing). Reading the reviews, and looking at the rating, made me decide to give this a chance.The bed arrived in about three days on my front porch. As expected (I had read that the box weighed about 85 pounds – no exaggeration here!) I could not lift the box to carry it inside (it was just too heavy for me) so I laid it flat on my front porch (it had arrived standing upright) and opened it there.The contents was EXTREMELY well packaged – it was a smaller box within the large box. The smaller box contained all of the parts – large and small styrofoam blocks everywhere, everything was welll-cushioned, thus un-blemished.The small parts (fasteners, screws and such) were shrink-wrapped onto sections on a piece of cardboard, with each section labeled with the corresponding part number to the directions – as an added bonus, there was also a section labeled “spare parts”, with a few extras of each. I REALLY appreciated this thoughtfulness on the part of Zinus, as this guaranteed that I would have all of the parts required.The instructions were simple – mostly all graphic images (pictures) of the step-by-step assembly.The reason that the instructions were so simple is that this bed is incredibly well engineered – the design has really been carefully planned and carefully thought out. Because of this, the parts and assembly pictures exactly matched all of the actual parts.Not too much guess work here – I had one or two missteps at the beginning, only due to me inexperience in putting together such things. After more thinking, looking at what I had done and comparing it to the instruction, I saw my error, disassembled this first step, and it was smooth sailing from then on.It took me about an hour and fifteen minutes to put this bed together, only because I had to spend a few minutes at each assembly step staring at the instructions in order to understand if I was doing things correctly. Aside from the first step, I was.If I had this to do over again (or if I had been a person with experience in such things) I’m guessing that I could have put this bed together in a half hour, tops.And I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bed! It is beautiful, exactly what I was hoping for (I purchased the one with the headboard), although expensive (for me) it is a quality item and totally worth the price. I know I will enjoy this bed for many, many years to come.So, if you are contemplating getting this bed, even if you are “older” and even if you have no experience in do-it-yourself furniture assembly, I would say GO FOR IT! When it comes, don’t be in a rush, study the instructions, only open the shrink wrapped parts sections as you need them (and be sure to put the parts in a dish or a pan or something so that they don’t roll under your chest of drawers and disappear!), take your time – and soon you will have a beautiful new bed.The only thing I would say to Zinus is that the photos on the page for the bed were poor quality (the photos, NOT the bed), blurry and out-of-focus. This almost stopped me from buying the bed right there and then – so, Zinus: better photos, more bed sales!Thanks for reading, everyone!! 🙂

This is a beautiful true all wood bed frame. Simple rustic type design which fit the style we we’re going for. The assembly was the easiest item I have ever put together and only took me about 15 mins. The instructions were clear and correct and with the handy little tool the company included it was stress free. The frame came with extra hardware so no issues with missing a screw or bolt. The slat supports are well made and have Velcro on them so there is no issue with them sliding on the frame. There are also two strips on the slats which secure your mattress to the slats so there is no shifting of the mattress. The mattress sits on top of the frame, it is not housed in the frame. This is perfect for making it easy to dress a bed with a large duvet and makes it easier to change bedding all around. I used this with an 11 inch mattress and it is a great basic height when combined. The headboard doesn’t sit very high but that is exactly what I needed and you can still see part of the headboard with the pillows against it.

Easy to assemble as all the pieces are labelled. All fit together correctly. Sturdy wood platform bed. The color is very close to what was shown online. The headboard is not too high which is what we wanted. Overall a solid purchase for the price.

Itâs sturdy and easy to assemble, but one star is that I donât like the sticker to locate mattress.
