Easy to assemble, sturdy, and lots of storage underneath
If you’re planning on using a box spring with your mattress for this frame it will be incredibly high off the ground. If you’re only using a mattress (you will have to measure and cut plywood to rest over the metal bars. You’ll need 80 inches by 60 inches of plywood to cover frame for just a mattress. That is what we did. Works great!
Easy directions! I did it by myself which was fine but could have been easier to have someone to hold up other sides of bed frame while using the wrench, but it’s easily done as a one person assembly.
Very sturdy! The way all the corners and pieces interconnect are great at helping make the bed frame sturdy. The slates are metal which are nice.
In the picture, we have only a mattress sitting on plywood to fit the frame, if you add a box spring, it would be very high off the ground and difficult to get up to your bed.
We decided on this height for three reasons. 1-we needed a frame without needing a box spring, and
2-we wanted to be able to store crap under the bed as well as easily pull the cats out from underneath if needed.
3-if I’m hiding from a serial killer, I want to be able to fit under my bed to hide.
