Amazon Basics Metal Platform Bed Frame, with Wood Slat Support, 6 inches High, Queen, Black

Quick assembly, just a few bolts with the included hex key. I was surprised that the wooden slats were all connected with velcro strap and just dropped in place, also held with velcro. On similar products, I have had to snap the slats in one at a time. Looks good and sturdy. My mattress is a full. I would not jump up and down on the bed with this frame, but my days of doing that are long past!

Like many buyers, I read the WORST reviews FIRST, then the good ones, check the dates to see if problems were old or newer and analyze the bad ones. I decided on this bed frame. This went together SUPERBLY! The picture instructions were understandable, all the bolts fit the holes and hand screwed in before tightening with the supplied allen wrenches (which also fit perfectly in the bolt heads, nice and deep) . I read one review that showed the middle bar twisting - that's because the buyers (who showed a picture) had the 2 side edges of the frame on the floor but the middle bar was on a rug....so it was like a three legged stool...only two of the three could touch the ground at once...so their weight shifted to one edge but that middle bar is designed ONLY for VERTICAL LOADS...so the one side slipped on the floor (as the other wasn't touching much at all), and over she went. ALL the bottom bars and the FEET on the middle bar MUST be on the same surface (that should be in the description quite frankly), be it the floor or the rug. Each of the 2 sections of slats were connected with Velcro strips which mated with the velcro on the side bars. Easy Piezy. I was so impressed I had to write this review. It comes in a REALLY LONG BOX, best for 2 to handle and ours did get torn abit at one end, but everything was there. One happy camper here! By the way, at only 6 inches high, there is little you can shove under the bed. In our case I had a 6 inch high box that I had to store below the bed.....it went in before the slats....and in our case, this box needed the maximum distance between the middle bar's feet to fit....and it did. Other frames just didn't have the opening we needed.....this one was perfect...now I don't need to access the box very much so that's the rest of the story. At six inches with the bars all being about 1 inch square, you have only about 4-1/4 inches to squeeze between the bars (except at the ends where in the middle the curved bar gives you a little more for some distance. One thing I can criticize is there is a slat gap at both the head and feet....I'd like to see that be addressed as an AIR MATTRESS does protrude downward thru the gap.....now there's not much weight on the bed NORMALLY in those areas, but still rubbing is occurring all the time. Over all a 4.99 out of 5.

Great bed for kids transitioning from crib or toddler beds into normal bed frames. Definitely best for toddlers still potty training. Easy to assemble both beds were assembled with in 30 mins :). Only reason it didn’t get full 5 stars is because when moving across the floor it ripped my toenail off my big toe so when moving watch your feet and or ware shoes when moving the frames :). Another problem I have is the slats are extremely bendy and not very much weight can be put on the bed less then 100# I’d say is safe. I have an autistic 3 yr old who loves jumping on everything and is not potty trained he jumps on the bed with no issues the slats are bendy and flexible but not sturdy for hold my weight (190#) or my sisters weight (120#) so we can’t lay on the beds with the kids. But good for kids starting out :)

This bed frame is exactly as pictured. The only thing I'm not sure about is the rounded corners of my mattress don't align with the frame so there is a small, but obvious, gap at each corner between bed and frame. In hindsight, I should have expected that considering that is how my mattress fits any base, but it never occurred to me. Since it's a platform style frame, the gap is very noticeable. I will get used to it, but if you're less flexible, here's your chance to think that over. Now let's talk assembly. This thing was a DREAM to put together. There are notches at all major joints so the pieces interlock and go together well. My main concern with buying a metal frame was the fact that the pieces always seem to wiggle loose over time due to the awkward design at the joints. These notches eliminate this concern. This frame may very well last for years, which wasn't exactly what I expected. All pieces are clearly marked. There's no guesswork involved. Don't undervalue this statement people. It took me less than 30 minutes to sort pieces and put it together. Amazon DID ship this via USPS and that is annoying. I admittedly did not read the shipping details, if there were any, when I ordered. USPS will not bring something this size to your door. The box is long , and a little heavy. It fit in my full size car with no additional passengers (through the trunk with seats down). Some people will not be able to load this alone. If transport is a concern, it's worth looking into before you buy. It was a nice day and the stars aligned so I was able to go grab mine with little inconvenience. No harm done here, but I did honestly purchase this from Amazon because I assumed it would be delivered to my door. Don't assume :D

Complete garbage. Plastic pads that go on top of the corner metal brackets become brittle and fall apart over time. This causes the metal to rub on the floor instead of the robber feet. Caused damage to my wooden floors before I noticed it

I accidentally got a full size instead of a queen size. That was my fault because I thought my mattress was a full. Instead of returning it and getting a new one, I decided to deal with it. Honestly, I love my silly little mistake. My bed looks like it’s floating now. I’ve never had an issue with the size difference and it holds very well if you know what I mean. It was very easy to assemble and I didn’t need any help. Good product and fair price.

I was worried I’d maybe made a mistake while browsing some additional reviews after it had already shipped but it’s great! One top review says it’s like a water bed and wiggles and sways but I don’t have that issue at all. I think they must have redesigned it because it’s totally sturdy and has additional jointed areas to ensure it doesn’t have any diagonal sway or wiggle. Works great for my taller mattress and mattress pad since a traditional box spring and frame had my bed feeling way too high. Was pretty easy to put together, took me under an hour by myself though I used a drill for some of the more accessible places a screw had to be put in.

*****one year later EDIT******* We have had this bed frame about a year now. There have been some issues. For one, the adhesive holding the Velcro strip for the slats to the frame has come loose. We are constantly having to fix it or we end up with a gap and our bed sinks. And as of a few days ago, the legs of the vertical support beam have both snapped off. Now our bed sinks in the middle. It’s still being held up but our comfort has been affected as well as how easy it is to sleep on. It’s good for a temporary fix if you need a low cost bed frame, but definitely not a good long term solution. It was nice while it lasted, but our mattress was constantly slipping around and never staying in the frame despite the frames design. I’d honestly recommend saving your money and looking at a better quality frame. ****original review***** I just received this bed frame so if something changes in the quality I will update. We needed something low to the floor for to be safer for our daughter when she is crawling on our bed and so she couldn’t get under it. This bed frame, may I say, is beautifully simple. It has curved head and footboard bars to keep the mattress from sliding and it gives it a little more design compared to a plain platform. Me, as a fairly small woman, was able to put this together in under 30 minutes by myself and move it around the room for perfect placement easily. Me and my husband weight total is around 400lbs and it doesn’t make a sound when getting up and down out of bed or while moving around. We got a new 10 inch mattress to use with this and can’t feel the slats at all, and I honestly believe that even with as little as 6inch you would still the comfortable. The wooden slates are close together and have Velcro support to keep them in place which is a big plus. Not gonna lie, for the price I was skeptical about its quality and sturdiness, but so far it is great and perfect for its use. If you’re in the fence about purchasing this, take the leap I truly believe it is worth it.
