Disappointed, it creaks, not that easy to put together.
Oh man, I am so so disappointed in this bed frame. I wanted to like it so bad, especially since its a style I was looking for in my price range (saw one on UO but it was triple the price). After reading all the reviews I thought I had hit the jackpot. Now Im convinced the 5 star reviews were paid for because Im pretty sure everyone is lying. First of all this bed makes noise. It creaks. LOUD. PERIOD. I attached a video of me sitting on it and rolling around for proof. Dont let anyone tell you otherwise. It also slides around way too much on hardwood floors.
Second, putting it together was stressful. It wasnt difficult because there arent that many pieces, but it took a really long time because I had to take the whole thing apart a few times since the screws were not screwing into their holes correctly. One screw kept pushing out the board it was attaching to instead of screwing into it, even though it was in the hole. I had to switch boards and then it finally worked. Also I highly recommend not prematurely tightening the screws until you have the whole bed assembled.
The reason Im not giving it 1 star is because the bed frame IS beautiful. I bet if it was on carpet it would help with the sliding issue. I highly question the durability because it creaks like crazy. As for the creak - sorry but I dont think anything can be done to prevent that. If youre looking to partake in vigorous night time activities in stealth, this is not the bed for you. If you want that boho chic plant mama bedroom look on a budget and dont care about anything else then I guess buy this bed.
