Classic Symmetrical Bed, King Size Bed Frame, Color White Upholstered Platform Bed

This is very well engineered product that feels solid and looks great. My wife was worried that the white vinyl would look kind of cheesy, but it looks like leather. It probably will not last for decades, but for the price, if it lasts for 10 years I won't feel bad about giving it to goodwill and getting something else. There is something that is kind of liberating about the price. This bed replaced a Stickley mission style bed frame that cost an arm and a leg... that thing aint going to goodwill. The product comes in several boxes and the delivery guy was nice enough to help me carry them into the garage where i could unbox and inspect the pieces. The product was well wrapped and protected. You may have seen from other reviews that the instructions are merely a picture without written words... I am attaching a picture so you can see them. I put the bed together myself in about 2 hours with a minimal amount yelling, however, it did take some muscle and another hand would have made things a bit easier. Something you need to think about with this bed is it is very low to the ground and if you are not used to that it will take some adjustment. The bed frame is only a couple of inches off of the floor so if you have a 10 inch mattress... well you can do the math. I think this is a function of the modern style. I purchased the Braxton upholstered bedside table along with this and it matches perfectly

Before buying this bed, I read the reviews. I called Greatime to ask about older reviews. I spoke with Sunny/Sonny(?). He assured me that the bed's design had been reworked to address structural issues previously brought to their attention. For, example, they strengthened the platform around the bed to accommodate heavier customers. They also added an additional section of slats for the King and Cal King models to prevent any under-mattress shifting during heavy play : ) You will want a friend to be available to help you move the boxes into your home. They are heavy and bulky. But, it is those heavy and bulky pieces that make this bed sturdy and also have that heavy duty look and feel. You will need an electric / cordless drill with Phillips bit. Without it, you will not be able to attach the bed's feet. Assembly time will be reduced by 60% in using it to drive the bolts as well. Set aside a Saturday if assembling this alone. Half a day with assistance. Play some music, read the directions carefully and follow them exactly. Stop and take breaks. You will get through it : ) When installing the slats, remember to loosen the corner bolts to allow movement to accommodate the placement of the slats and slat framing. IMPORTANT - Do not install the slat clips into the cross or side frames until you have the slats inserted into the clips. Removing the slat clips once they are snapped in is nearly impossible. Follow the directions. Once you have the slats all clipped in, then go back and tighten the frame's corner bolts while adjusting for outer frame alignment/looks/symmetry. I ordered the white version of the Cal King. I wanted the bed's feet to be white like the rest of the bed. Thus, I spent $4 on a can of white spray paint and painted the feet white the day before assembly (non-lacquer for faster drying). As far as the color, Greatime kindly sent me phone pics of the shade of white by placing a white tissue over the bed frame. My pure white furniture is a shade lighter, but with sheets and pillows and all else in the room, you would have to be an anal idiot to notice or even care. If anyone notices or comments, disown them. Good luck! You will want an 8" mattress. This is the size that appears in the online photos.

Hate to leave a bad review on such a good looking bed, but it arrived from coast to coast without the plastic pieces for the slats. So I have this HUGE bedframe that takes up most of the master bedroom. They said they will send the pieces, but most likely not over night like I requested. So I can either take apart the bed and sleep with the mattress on the floor, make my pregnant wife sleep on the couch, or go to Home Depot and buy 50$ worth of materials, on top of finding a vehicle to transport all that long wood in, to make this base suitable for a mattress. I guess I'm going to spend more money to make this work!

i have assembled many pieces of furnitures throughout my life, this mattress, by far is one of the toughest i have worked on. because of the size and weight of each piece, it requires a lot of muscle to put the pieces together. worst yet, once you assemble the frames together, to install the L shape wooden piece at each corner of the bed frame, you have to lift the entire frame up and screw the wooden piece onto the bed frame. i bought this frame because i wanted my house to have a modern feel to it. Quiet frankly, after spending almost 4 hours to put everything together, the bed frame does look nice, and i cannot wait to buy a nice mattress to put it onto the frame, but the installation part was simply a pain *update as 7/3/16 After buying a mattress and putting it on, as you can see from the picture below, the bed looks quiet nice and spacious. definitely plan to keep it for a long time, :-) *update 12/25/17 I moved into another house recently, so i had to disassemble and reassemble the bed frame. im not sure if the leather has been stretched or something, but the 2nd time was much easier compare to the first time. I was able to disassemble and assemble all the pieces by myself.

This is my dream bed. I have been wanting one just like it for years, but I was waiting to move before I bought it. The frame is very strong, and the leather material is very sleek. A power drill is necessary to attach the feet of the bed and the connecting brackets. My only complaint is that the headboard is a little on the short side. I have a 15" mattress which doesn't help any.

This has stood up to over 3 years of use. No discoloration which is normal with these products. Fantastic value and I would buy this brand again

This is a great bed for the value. I weigh 280 lb and this bed has no problem supporting me. There was one little issue with the side rails of this bed, I recently just had surgery and I had to put my knee down on the side of the bed to get out of bed and it broke the top of the wood But did not put a hole through the leather. So note to self, and all others, do not stand or kneel on the sides or the end of the top of the Rails. I even added LED lights underneath because I'm cheesy like that.

got the bed,wasnt damaged. This thing is huuuuuuge and i love it my master bedroom is very large with high ceilings so its good to have a bed that takes up some type of space .I bought a 10 inch matress for it.Very pleased with it given the price.
