We live in Hawaii so returns are NOT an option for big items like this. Also no , only REAL expensive HEAVY furniture, so we took a gamble on this. It arrived super fast for some reason, and although heavy, the package was quite compact! The outer package was a little dinged, but it was packed inside an inner cardboard box! The package came with some lovely cards and instructions, the ratchet tool I saw everyone talk about in the reviews really did live up to the hype.
Assembled quickly, really easily. We got the 14 and it is REAL HIGH. Ive never had a bed this high. I can actually roll under it! I can fit entire plastic bins under there. Im thinking my cat is gonna live under there.
The slats have a double stick tape that we didnt use, since we have an allergy protector on our mattress it didnt seem like it would make sense to stick it to the protector. The mattress does move, and we do push it back when its 1/2 over on one side but it hasnt caused any disasters. I do with it had some kind of lip though, to eliminate this problem. A 2 lip wouldnt change the design much imo. It doesnt squeak but weve only had it for about a month so Ill update if it develops any issues. So far it looks really nice!
Great so far! Great package, great tool!
