- Recommendations: If you have an extra pair of helping hands it'll definitely be a lot faster and easier. If you do it yourself, unless you're great at lifting up and moving heavy items, I recommend you build the frame on its final location like I did if you have enough room (: otherwise it's probably very difficult to move on your own!
2) Appearance and exterior material: Both the faux leather and the color make it look gorgeous and elegant. If you have a thicker mattress and you're worried about how your headboard will look, I have a Purple 3 mattress and I feel like I have sufficient headboard space after placing the mattress (picture 2 is of my headboard, so you can use this as a reference of how it'll look).
- The material also feels nice to the touch and it's easy to wipe/clean. For oily smudges (caused by hand creams, lotions...), I recommend using dryer sheets... they work perfectly!
3) Storage and drawers: it has tons of storage space in the drawers. The bottom/inner sides of the drawers are not made of the same material as the rest, instead it's like a thick clear plastic but the drawers are reinforced on the bottom/center and edges with a cross-shaped metal and rectangular bars respectively (picture 3 uploaded for reference). This makes them lightweight and easier to move in and out.
- Although I haven't had any issues yet, I wouldn't necessarily put a lot of small heavy items on top of the plastic. They also come with a warning to avoid sharp objects (for obvious reasons). Last, when you're pulling the drawers or pushing them back in, they move to the sides a bit as there's nothing on the sides to align or lock them in place.. The way to secure them, prevent them from opening and keeping them in place is by inserting a screw/pin into a slot (I point at each one of them on two of my pictures, 3 and 4). After doing this, the drawers fit perfectly flush though (1 and 5 pictures show this too). Although the pin system works great, it's not as convenient depending on how you make your bed and etc.
4) Sturdiness: apart from the drawers' inner material, the bed slats looked and felt a bit flimsy and this worried me a bit, especially after reading some reviews. But my mattress is quite heavy and I have slept on the bed for a few months and haven't had any issues at all.
- Granted, I sleep alone (no pets), I'm on the shorter side (4'11") and I'm not overweight.
Bottom line, I absolutely love this bed and so far I think it's great for the price. I hope my review helps you make an informed decision (: I'll update my review if anything changes.

The assembly instructions state that two people are recommended to put it together, but it can easily be done solo **IF** you do one thing the instruction book fails to tell you. I’ll mention that in a few moments.
Number one: you would be well served to have an open space in an adjacent room, to lay down the shipping box. At 140 lbs, it’s heavy. Place it upside down, then cut the edges of the packing tape with a pair of scissors (don’t use a utility knife - you risk waywardly slicing parts located in the box.)
Once open, there’s a lot of styrofoam packed around the parts. Have a trash bag handy to discard the styro, as it can get messy if you’re not careful. Carefully stack and prop your parts and hardware in the area you will be placing the bed. You’ll want ample working room there, too.
Follow the instructions TO THE LETTER. They’re easy to understand, and the illustrations and exploded views are spot-on... EXCEPT for the side rails that go from the headboard to the center support. Whether you’re assembling solo or with assistance of a second person, DO NOT fully attach the full length side rails to the center rail before attaching to the headboard. Attach the side rails to the headboard, with it (headboard) flat on the floor first, *then* attach the side rails to the center support, the bottom rails to the footboard, and *THEN* tighten all the screws.
*On a side note, the only tool you have and need is included on the parts blister sheet: an everyday 10mm hex key (allen wrench). It really is *that* simple, from a tool standpoint.*
Once you finish that single change to the instructions, everything else is 100% straightforward and foolproof.
The under-bed storage is deceptively deep and quite large, with the four drawers nearly splitting the entire underside platform into quadrants, providing ample storage area. Also, my advice would be to use the drawers for nothing but cloth/clothing items (whether bed linens, socks, intimate wear, t-shirts, shorts, and the like.) Each drawer is listed at 40 pounds capacity, but I doubt that thoughtfully placed items will ever challenge those maximums.
One thing I will check on, by reaching out to the manufacturer, then update once I get clarification, is the weight limits for the bed. The instructions mention a weight limit of 500 lbs, but fail to clarify if that takes the mattress weight into account. (I say that because my mattress weighs around 85-90 lbs, and I am 6’2” and 240).. once I have that, I’ll add it to the Q&A for the product.
Overall, this is a well-constructed, sturdy bed for the money. I would absolutely recommend it, if you’re looking fir a stylish, space saving bedroom storage centerpiece. You won’t be disappointed.
**EDIT/UPDATE**
The 500 lb weight limit is a recommendation. Customer service said excluding the average mattress weight (100 lb) is reasonable, so long as care is taken not to lunge or jump onto the bed, as the slats beneath are still wood.

Each drawer is listed at 40 pounds capacity, but I doubt that thoughtfully placed items will ever challenge those maximums.
One thing I will check on, by reaching out to the manufacturer, then update once I get clarification, is the weight limits for the bed. The instructions mention a weight limit of 500 lbs, but fail to clarify if that takes the mattress weight into account. (I say that because my mattress weighs around 85-90 lbs, and I am 6’2” and 240).. once I have that, I’ll add it to the Q&A for the product.
Overall, this is a well-constructed, sturdy bed for the money. I would absolutely recommend it, if you’re looking fir a stylish, space saving bedroom storage centerpiece. You won’t be disappointed.
**EDIT/UPDATE**
The 500 lb weight limit is a recommendation. Customer service said excluding the average mattress weight (100 lb) is reasonable, so long as care is taken not to lunge or jump onto the bed, as the slats beneath are still wood.

Unfortunately it is in storage until we move to our new home and I will not be able to check if the damage has reached the bed itself until end November.
Please confirm by return that it will be possible to return it if the damage has reached the bed itself.
UPDATE
Thankfully the bed itself was not damaged. Assembly was easy but took a while.
Looks great!
