Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I followed the advice of others and added additional slats. It took me about 30min to assemble the packaged kit and another 20min to install the extra slats. My bed is from Nest and they recommend a foundation with slat spaces no bigger than 4". (Note: some foam beds req ventillation from below, so plywood sheeting is not recomended). As you can see in the pictures, this frame's spacing exceeds 4", so i added 11(total) 1"x2"x6' pine slats. They're only about $1ea from any major home improvement store. They'll even cut them for you. Tip1: to ensure even spacing, assemble the kit, then use a 1x2 slat as a spacer. No need to eyeball the spacing. Tip2: buy a cheap bottle of wood glue and apply a dime-sized dolop everywhere a slat touches the frame. It will eliminate squeaks! Overall, the frame is built like a tank and should last a lifetime. I'm very satisfied with this purchase. UPDATE 4/17/19 After 6months or so we began to have an issue with the frame squeaking/creaking when you get up or sit down on the memory foam bed. (It was annoyingly loud) I tried tightening the screws, undoing the screws and re-applying glue everywhere one wood slat touched another. To no avail. Today I was going to apply lock-tight to all of the bolts but then played around with the support and my lower bed frame. My bed has (3) 4"x1" boards that run from one side of the bed to the other. In the middle of each board is a single column support that touches the floor. It turns out that the squeaking was coming from the mattress support "grinding" against these slats. I happened to have a few "furniture sliders" laying around. (They're little circular black/tan felt pads that go under the legs of couches and chairs so you can slide them on hardwood floors.) Anyway, these worked PERFECTLY! No more creaks/squeaks!!! Literally a $4 solution! If you found this review helpful please let me know. Thanks!
