Buy a bed online? Delightfully surprised, really works for us!
I knew its a crazy gamble to buy this type of product online. My biggest on yet. I have a picture, price, item description but no reviews! This isnt a $5 item that if it disappoints you can just say, Oh Well. If this is a lemon you are screwed because while returnable, this manufactured wood/particle board/MDF stuff is heavy and the packing so re-pack impossible it is not really practical to return. So allow me to be the first review for you!
Features and price were the main reasons for buying. I needed a bed for my teenage daughter, so she had to like it, storage drawers were a must to open up space in her room, but I didnt want to spend too much knowing shell be off to college in a few years. I didnt need a bed that would be there in 15, even 10 years. This bed met all those needs. The only one we found that did, and I looked all over the place locally, in this big suburban town. We are glad we bought this bed and are happy with it. For the price it is ideal.
This bed is ideal for her. She likes the simple styling, low profile, and storage drawers for clothes (of course). The drawer space is plenty. Sufficient really, for the more drawer space you have the more clothes you can hide and forget that you have! The bed is sturdy and feels solid. I especially like that the drawers are integral and part of the bed, not just a big drawer box that slides under the bed. There are alot of those out there. Thats fake to me as a storage bed.
My wife and daughter put this together fairly easy in roughly two hours. Instructions are straightforward but a little assembly know-how and intuition helped. Instructions do need a serious review however. The steps dont make the best logical sense. Thats the reason for the lost fifth star in this review! They help get the assembly done but if you are reading this- go see how does it. They make it real easy and simple and clear. Other comments I read elsewhere online about difficult to move is true so put it in place before you pack the drawers, and assemble it in the same room it will stay in.
Now you do get what you pay for, theres a reason why the price point is where it is, dont expect to get Ethan Allen furniture for price, but if you want a simple styled bed with storage this is the one.
This bed is -like just that instructions not as clear or logical. I keep mentioning so I should say that they were the first place I looked for such a bed. But they dont even have one like this. Sleep well, store well, save $ well.
