Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This frame was easy to put together, however, it was about an inch too short for the metal headboard that I purchased it for. My boyfriend was going to drill holes into a metal plate to get it to work, so I left it assembled in my guest bedroom. About 2 hours after we assembled the bedframe, my sister asked me what the chemical smell was in the house. We couldn't figure it out for several hours and then realized it was coming from the bedframe. The smell was not noticeable untill the frame started to heat up once it was out of the box for a while. Our heat was running a lot on the day the frame was assembled and once the frame started to warm up, then the chemicals from the paint that was used to coat the bedframe started to release throughout our house. I had clothes drying in my guest room where the bedframe was located and they had the toxic chemical smell in them. I had to rewash the whole load, but some of it still smells. I ended up boxing the bedframe back up and sitting it outside on our porch, so the item was no longer in my house. I opened up the windows in my house upstairs yesterday to try and get the smell out, but that did not work completely. I can't believe that Amazon would sell this product in the first place. This item is made in China and they must use very TOXIC paint to cover the frame itself. This is definitely the worst product I have ever purchased on Amazon for health & safety issues.
