Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Needed a replacement to an old frame and this looked good. Its strong points are: 1. It is superbly engineered. The design is expert and presents a very stable platform for most likely any bed. 2. It fits most King beds and the box springs fite perfectly. On the down side: 1. BEWARE when finishing. 4 of the final slats have two sided tape to inhibit box spring movement. You must tear off the top tape only! This fact should be made more expressly. We pulled off the tape and both came off. Then we realized there were two tapes. That is the only defective design element. 2. In a sense this is a rocket launch pad! That means you have a lot of assembly. There are some 36 bolts that need insertion and the numbered pieces help but it is time consuming and helps if two people do the work. 3. It is heavy. It is not your typical frame, it is a well manufactured and engineerd metal system. 4. No surprise but don't try pushing your vac under the bed. 5. Place it where you want it. Moving it about is no mean task. There are no wheels and the design ensures a stable platform, no movement. 6. It makes the bed VERY firm. The cross bars are the equal of a very firm full plywood over the bottom frame. If you like a less firm bed you may want to rethink this. Will try removing the slats and see what that does. 7. BUT, after two weeks the bed has become rock solid! Guess we will try to return it. If you like a very firm structure this is your best choice. BUT if you have become used to a less firm structure this may, in my opinion and my experience, disappoint. It is a shame because it seems so well built! 8. HOWEVER, it seems to me based upon my experience and in my opinion that if you seek to return it you are out of luck. Thus you should be certain that you REALLY want this sight unseen because it is yours. Ours unfortunately is being donated to a local charity. Hopefully someone may find it useful. Also it is very heavy, almost 90 pounds.
