I bought this bed to replace my traditional bed because my 2 kittens kept crawling under my traditional bed at 3:00 am and wrestling around! Plus I moved to a studio apartment recently and my living room is also my bedroom. I wanted a bed that didn't look so much like a traditional bed, but could be blended into a room and not stand out. This bed fits the bill perfectly. When it arrived, an essential part was broken in transit. I called South Shore customer service and they were awesome! They were very concerned about my satisfaction with their product. That is rare these days! They shipped a replacement part right out. I recommend this bed. The storage is a nice plus. And for 200 bucks you will not find a sharper bed. I love it!

This has so many pieces but once we got it together it’s great we did have an issue getting the drawers together but it’s because we used the wrong pieces. This is a sturdy bed but a lot of building

This is the best thought-out product made of particle board I have every purchased. Everything from attaching the drawers to securing the platform boards has been designed with sturdiness in mind. They only use those useless round metal inserts in one place where there is likely to be little stress and any other choice would have made assembly difficult. The bolts and connectors are similar to those of an aquarium stand I once purchased and an aquarium stand has to hold a lot of weight! There are nifty little ways they made the construction very sound (screwing into a plastic nub rather than just particle board for instance).If you doubt you will ever take the bed apart, add a little glue and I'll bet it will be sound for years and years. I've had the bed for 2 weeks and the dog and 2.5 year-old have jumped on it a plenty - not a creak or a wiggle out of it yet.The drawers are also well constructed and well placed. Handy spot for an extra set of sheets and/or blankets.This is an EXCELLENT buy - especially at this price!Read more

Beautiful bed. Very sturdy and I'm really happy with it. To be honest I couldn't figure out how to assemble it, but I called my son and he had it together in an hour. Its heavy and was a gift for my granddaughter who absolutely loves it. The storage drawers are a huge bonus. Highly recommend.

I've had this platform since 2012 and it's been so nice of a bed..yeah at first it's little complicated to get together but I used gorilla glue before I put the screws in and on the edges of all the boards to clamp em in so a literally put a Lil bit of gorilla glue on the screws before I inserted them into the boards and let me tell you it makes it so sturdy like an Australian oak tree....gorilla glue make wonders if you know how to use it.

I don't think I've ever written a one-star review, for I usually believe there is always something decent to be said about every purchase. Not this time. I am absolutely disgusted with this purchase and feel like I've thrown away over $200 on this bed. Save yourself the time, stress, and worry, and do not purchase this bed. There are better quality beds out there for the same amount of money. Keep looking.Why? Let me start. After a lengthy wait, the bed was shipped via Prime (the only good thing about this purchase) and came requiring a signature. When the box was opened, the instructions were almost indecipherable. The bed was put together mainly from looking at the pictures of it, and it took three days to piece it all together. This is not an easy assembly. Perhaps for a master carpenter, but not for the average Joe and Jane. Maybe we received a different product from the other reviewers, but I can honestly say that it took a solid 24 hours of labor to figure out which piece went where and assemble it all. It uses screws, fasteners, and required the use of a drill, screwdriver, and hammer, also not a big deal, but make sure you're ready.Upon assembly, eight screws were missing. Considering it was so big and heavy and took so long to ship, rather than wait for the pieces to come from the manufacturer, a trip to Home Depot was made to purchase them. Another delay in assembly.Finally, the bed is put together! But wait! As soon as it was sat on, the middle support beam broke - yes, broke. The wood snapped. After all the frustration of putting it together, the first time it was sat on, it fell apart. I can't even begin to explain how frustrating it was. Once more, since it took so long to come, another trip to Home Depot was made for a replacement board. However, now we're getting really stressed out.After a couple of weeks of gingerly sitting on the bed and replacing the fasteners that keep popping out because they don't fit the thin boards well, guess what? Sitting on the bed causes all the lower support beams to crack. Yes, crack. Now I don't know what tree this poor bed came from, but it's the cheapest, flimsiest wood I've ever seen. We're not overweight people, and this is coming from a person 115 pounds sitting on it. That's sad.At this point, I decide I've wasted a hefty chunk of money and want to return it. There are other beds out there that are much better quality for the same amount of money, and I want my money's worth. Well, naturally Amazon wants the bed back. The idea of taking it apart and trying to jam it in a box when it weighs more than I do is discouraging and disappointing. I understand that they want the defective purchase back, but we don't have the materials, time, and patience to tear it all down and ship it back. In addition, the box it arrived in was sent to the trash when we finished putting it together. So we're stuck in a quandary with a piece of junk bed that wasn't worth $50 let alone over $200.I purchased this bed based on the reviews. A lot of people said it was pretty, easy to assemble, and worth the money. Well, I'm sorry to say that has not been my experience. As much as I hate to write a one-star review, I have had no choice. I'm stuck with a purchase that was not worth the money and has completely fallen apart. I'm sorry to have flushed the money down the toilet and seen my family suffer through so much stress with a piece of furniture.Read more

I've never seen a product have so many bad reviews. But I liked the look, and hoped I'd be one of the lucky ones, and not as picky.When it arrived, the box was banged up to all hell. One of the boards was vary visibly damaged. Luckily, it was directly under where the mattress will be. Assembly was a pain (but I think ikea is too?). The alignment of the screw holes that mount the top panels were misaligned, and I had to drill new wholes. The materials themselves (particle board) are SO cheap I've been treating it like a thin sheet of glass when I moving it around when I'm putting it together. When I put a panel on the top, I walked on it to check the strength. It dipped down so much it almost snapped, had I not stepped off quick. I do like the look, so I'm going ahead and modifying the structure to make it sound. You can see the 2" x 4" struts I put in in the picture. This will definitely make it usable. I HIGHLY recommend doing this, as the cheep boards will almost certainly break, especially if you're doing some romping on your bed. However, if you don't want to go through the hassle of modifications, I HIGHLY recommend skipping this product, because it WILL break.**I also got the matching night stand. That one is a different story. I'm vary satisfied with it for the money.Read more

Hi, the top board that covers the platform goes over the entire bed. The mattress goes on top. In some cases the mattress may even slip a little bit.

Full / Double

A Full / Double bed is a bed meant for couples to share, however with the emergence of so many size options full-double beds are now mainly meant for single sleepers. Back in the 1940s a couple would perfectly fit and enjoy a full double bed, in fact you might have seen one in those 90s movies a classic full-double bed with a nightstand next to it and an old black and white TV on the wall. In modern day, full-double beds are still very popular, mainly among the younger generation who are not married yet and desire a little bit of comfort. Full-double beds fell out of favor of many couple with the introduction of king and queen size beds in to the markets. But despite that a full-double bed is still an excellent choice for single adults with limited space but still desire a bigger bed.

Box Spring Not Required Platform

Platform beds do not require a box spring mattress, as they can support any mattress at all. This makes platform beds highly versatile beds that can be the main bed for a large family home, all the way to being the spare bed in a guest bedroom. The versatility of these beds makes them easy to use, and very easy to work into any bedroom. They can also provide a clean minimalist look, because there is no headboard sticking out and drawing attention. Platform beds are an excellent fit for anyone that wants their bed to be subtle and not draw too much attention. The box-spring-not-required-platform bed is easily customised to look exactly how you want, as there is no headboard dictating the overall style and look of the bed either. The platform bed is recommended for those times when you need a bed to fit into any bedroom setting and can be moved to another room at any time where it will also be a great fit.

Black

When trying to open up a smaller bedroom most people often think about bright colors with light hues, but also there is a stronger advantage for going darker and there is no better way to do that than with a black bed. Black is known to amplify small spaces and also set the right mood in your bedroom space. A black colored bed makes your bedroom fell more intimate and special in ways that you could have never imagined before, something that you would never achieve with any of those bright colors. There is nothing as important as setting the right mood in your bedroom especially if you are a couple since it’s the base of your relationship romantically. A black bed adds a touch of intrigue but still blends right into the bedroom décor colors creating a timeless look.

White

A white bed is definitely a show stopper, it’s plain and simple. Despite people referring to white as lack of other colors, a white bed makes quite a statement. It gives your bedroom space a more open and timeless feel, while allowing your bedroom décor to standout even more clearly. A bed with a pure shade of white energizes your entire space giving it a vibrant new look, giving you the illusion of a more light within your bedroom. What makes a white bed a favorite for many is the fact that white as a color creates a relaxing sleep environment. And as you know choosing the right color is very important, since color is like magic and can influence your state of mind and emotions. If there is one thing you should do right is get yourself a white bed and enjoy every single moment you spend in your bedroom.

Drawers

A cluttered bedroom is not pleasing and relaxing at all. Sometimes, though your things are well-organized, seeing them still makes your space crowded. Two options are available: throw away your stuff or upgrade your regular bed into a drawer or storage bed. For sure, you will choose the latter, right?

Space-saving and multifunctional, drawer beds can make you feel like you don't need shelves and cabinets anymore. They come with 2 drawers, 4 drawers, 2 full and 2 half drawers, or end drawers built in the bed frame. Full ottoman and half ottoman are also available, where the entire bed offers hidden storage space. Drawer beds can also benefit your stuff since they are hidden, they won't accumulate dust. Finding them can also be easy for you because you have just one place to look at. After all, a tidy room can make your sleep better and more comfortable. And, yes, there's no such thing as too much storage.

Platform

You may be looking for a bed that is timeless and cost-effective and maybe your life quote is "simplicity is beauty," then you can swear by platform beds. A platform bed is a simple bed frame that has a solid foundation capable to hold any type of mattress without the need of a box spring. It also comes with built-in slats to allow airflow and breathability. And since box springs are unnecessary, you can save money if you decide to buy a new mattress.

Though simple, it doesn't mean that this type of bed is boring. Platform beds come from various materials, such wood, metal, and fiberboard. You may even have them upholstered for an added classic touch! Ideal for all ages, they are also available in different sizes: twin, full, queen, and king. Interestingly, platform beds are great for storing extra stuff since many of them come with drawers and headboard shelving, perfect for keeping your bedroom tidy.

Storage Included

When your bedroom space is small storage can be the biggest challenge you will encounter. Your closet could be a solution but not big enough to pack so many clothes. Well, you may want to buy a bigger cabinet, but you don’t want to pack so many dressers and cabinets into your space that it feels clunky and crowded. Storage beds are a fantastic way to get more space without adding extra furniture, and a lot of them are so stylishly designed you almost don’t notice the drawers are there. This bed design offers a great way to make the most of the space in your room, giving you a place to stash clothes, bedding, and more inside or beneath your bed frame. The best storage beds feature spacious compartments that are easy to access, and with tons of styles to choose from. The most common options are shelves built into the headboard or drawers built into the frame below the mattress. Depending on the reason you want space, a storage bed provides easy access, but if you're storing items that you don't need to get to very often, you can opt for a spacious platform beneath the bed that can be accessed when you lift the mattress. Ultimately, your choice will come down to what's most convenient for you.

Minimalist

The minimalist aesthetic has become one of the most popular design styles, and for good reason! A minimalist décor style focuses on simplicity, clean lines, and the use of color as an accent rather than as the main focus of a room. Color palettes within the minimalist style feature muted blues and greens, as well as earth and neutral tones. A minimalist design style utilizes only the bare essentials to furnish a room to create an uncluttered, organized and aesthetically pleasing space. Ideally, a minimalist bedroom consists of a bed, a night table, and a light source. Bedroom furniture, specifically beds, in the minimalist décor style are often platform beds instead of traditional four-poster bed frames or sleigh beds.

Beds

A bed can be referred as a piece of furniture which is used as a place to fall asleep and relax. In this modern age beds consist of a soft cushioned mattress and a bed frame, the mattress is usually resting on a sprung base, solid base, or a wood slats. Beds come in different sizes ranging from infant-sized cribs to small beds that can just accommodate one person, to large king and queen sized beds designed for two or more people. Most bed are usually a single mattress and a fixed frame, however there are other varieties such as a sofa bed, which folds out of a sofa or a murphy bed that folds in to a wall. Other beds can be referred as temporary beds as they contain neither a bedframe nor a mattress, a good example is the inflatable air mattress or the folding camp cot.

Hardwoods

Hardwood wood varieties refer to the type of tree the wood is taken from; it has nothing to do with how heavy or dense the wood is (contrary to popular belief!). Hardwood woods are sourced from trees that have leaves and lose their leaves in the winter months. Types of hardwood trees include hickory, maple, oak, birch and cherry (among others). Wood from hardwood trees is usually harder and therefore more dense, as these trees tend to grow at a slower rate. Hardwood is ideal for use in indoor furniture crafting, as it is sturdy and durable. Most hardwood varieties are bright and beautiful in their natural tone/shade, but many take well to staining, finishes and paints. The hardwood varieties offer a cozy, warm look and enrich your bedroom style. Hardwood bed frames are a great way to brighten your bedroom and enhance the overall look and feel of your sleep space!

Oak

If you’re looking for a way to refurbish your sleep space, purchasing an oak bed should be at the top of your to-do list! Oak is a classic, refined and traditional wood finish that is simply gorgeous. A natural oak finish is typically a warm cherry brown color; however, oak takes to staining quite well. This allows you to change up the look of your furniture to match your ever-changing style and design preferences. The simple grain patterns in oak wood are beautiful and understated; this gives you a timeless look for your bedroom that you’re sure to love for years to come. Oak is heavier than some of the other wood varieties, so assembly of any bedroom furniture is best if there are two or more people. Once properly assembled, oak furniture enhances the coziness of your bedroom and can add a rustic flair to your design motif.
