AllewieQueen Size Platform Bed Frame with Wooden Headboard and Footboard, Heavy Duty 12 Metal Slats Support, No Box Spring Needed, Under-Bed Storage, Noise Free, Easy Assembly, Black Oak

A few years earlier, we bought a highly rated metal bed frame for our teenager's room. While easily to assembly and stylish (for a bed frame), it could not withstand the weight/force of our 175# son. The metal bent, the bolts loosened, and the bed frame constantly made noise. Tightening parts provided no improvement.This design, with its paneled headboard and footboard, is much better. It's a tremendously solid and quiet bed frame. Easy to assemble. Well constructed. Looks great.Wish we bought this one first.

I typically wait to review for a bit, but this thing was pretty quality from the go. You get what you pay for (mostly) but for this price, it looks really nice, and was solid enough for the queen mattress sans box spring. Dorm room or apartment quality furniture.

Wow! This bed is great and beautiful! Easy to put together. 50+ years old and I was able to put it together by myself! Nothing flimsy about it. Great quality!

Very sturdy and sleek design. You need a tall mattress if you don't want the bottom of the headboard showing. I have mobility issues and was able to put the frame together by myself, though the process may have been longer for me than the average person. I struggled with the middle supports and slats. Some of the slats seemed slightly longer and required a lot of strong arming to fit them in. I snapped two nails in the process, but that's a me issue. Overall the frame is strong, doesn't squeak, and there's no metallic odor at all.

I love my Bed, the color, the design

Ordered this and had it shipped to my mom's house as a spare bed replacement for my wife and I to sleep on when we visit. She didn't need a whole bedroom suite, or an expensive "fancy frills" 4-post heavy wooden monstrosity. Originally I was just going to go with a simple metal platform, but then scanned the options presented with head and foot boards. The prices for a little nicer bed was negligible, and far cheaper than cobbling up the frame, rails, and head/foot boards separately and hoping everything would fit without too much modification.Be aware that shipping is a big factor when pricing these various beds out. Some distributors on Amazon will price their beds low while charging high shipping rates. This one met all of the price and shipping points, thought it wasn't my first choice. However, the design and faux wood colors were very compatible with the the bedroom, so it's a win.When I arrived at my mother's house, the box was sitting in the spare bedroom. The box was a bit beat up, but nothing inside was damaged. It was well wrapped and padded. I unboxed and sorted all of the parts which were clearly numbered, and familiarized myself with the assembly instructions. The instructions were mainly clear CAD drawings (insert part A3 into B1, use bolts B4 here, here, and here) with very little but helpful text. The kit came with 1 Allen tool and 1 box tool. No other tools are needed or were used.In about 2 hours I had the bed fully assembled, placed, and the new foam mattress and padding installed. I did this myself with no extra hands. If you take your time and stare at the instructions until you "get it", it will go very smoothly.QUALITY: This is where I was a bit shocked. This sub $200 bed exceeded our expectations in every way.The metal components are very strong, and the welds are very well done. The frame fits together tightly, and the bolts are high quality and large. Once together, there was zero play, zero squeaks or creeks, no movement, even by the head or foot boards. It states it can hold 800 lbs and I believe it. We slept on it for 3 nights and it was as solid as any bed I ever slept on - more so than others. This bed frame was NOT cobbled together, someone truly thought this out.Now.. I don't want to over-rate this bed. It's NOT fine furniture, or heirloom quality. The "wood" trim, while pleasant to look at, is fake and would not hold up to roughhousing and impact damage from children. I'm sure the metal paint will eventually wear due to use over the years (same as any bed). But... I'd buy this again for spare guestrooms in a heartbeat.

Looks and feels more than it costs. No noises or wobble, happy with it.Definitely would suggest a 12in mattress, anything bigger would make the headboard feel insignificant.

Absolutely worth every penny, easy to assemble, lots of space underneath for storage, solid well made
