This item is good! Satisfied. This (King) is the 2nd bed frame Ive purchased. The other was a full size for my son. The king size frame lives up to its sturdy reputation.no squeaking, wobbling or bending. On carpet we found that we dont even need a headboard, as we are able to shift the mattress towards the wall enough to keep pillows from sliding down the crack. (On hardwood floor, however, my sons frame slides away from the wall over time. Im addressing that issue with inexpensive furniture cups from local hardware store)
My only complaints are that (1) I keep stubbing my toes, but thats just a matter of training myself, and (2) I cant fit my storage bins underneath the frame. You get 12 of clearance and my plastic boxes are just over a foot high. I knew this before ordering the frame and will just have to come up with a different solution.either shorter bins or invest in rolling wooden drawers.
The frame was easy to put together. Definitely easier with 2 people. It took my husband and me 90 minutes but we were working in a tight space with other furniture in the way. Leaving the screws and bolts loose until all are aligned will allow them to line up better. Get yourself a set of real Allen wrenches; the included wrench is too short to allow full rotation.
Highly recommended!
Well/designed simplicity
