I looked all over for a full size Montessori style floor bed and found exactly 1 that remained out of stock with no information when or even if it would ever be made again. I didn’t want to spend a thousand+ dollars for someone else to build one and I didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars to build one myself. I finally found this 3 inch tall frame. It is perfect. The mattress is off the floor and air can flow underneath but it’s not high enough to injure my child if he were to fall out. It took me 38 minutes to put it together by myself but I wasn’t trying to go fast. The directions were simple and easy to follow. It’s also very sturdy. I stood on each of the cross bars and they supported my 120 pounds without movement. If they can each hold me on their own, they could easily hold a mattress and two adults collectively, or in my case a mattress and a toddler. No box spring needed! Read more
Used for a toddler bed to be close to the ground. It works really nicely for our purposes. There's enough of a gap for air flow and it's close enough to the ground to keep the kiddo safe if he falls out. It is very sturdy, and fits and adult and a child well with no noise and no issues. Our mattress travels a bit on it, but if it's kept against a wall that is not an issue. We were able to build this in about fifteen minutes. Read more
Review: My frame was the T40-3F model (full size 3 inch tall). I found the frame and hardware to be of high quality and well manufactured. The bolts and screws came well organized and identified in a bubble pack. The instructions, well not detailed, are fairly easy to follow, kind of like a jigsaw puzzle where all the pieces are pre labeled with letters and the instruction diagrams tell you how to put them together. Good value, highly recommended. The box weighs about 90 lbs so if you're not able to hoof that amount around you'll need to have someone help you or open the box and carry the sub-assemblies. The box can be rocked-walked by a moderately strong person. Assembly Tips: The box contains five sub assemblies with all the parts identified with letters that you can match to the instruction diagrams. The long rails are unfolded. Double check every time you add a piece to the frame, that the slat holders (nubs) are facing inward to the frame and upward; opposite the legs which point downward. Follow the assembly diagrams, always double checking each piece you add for proper orientation. Use the nuts and bolts from the packaging as you need them. The nuts are self-locking and the side with the largest flat area starts onto the screw first. When the self-locking part encounters the screw tightening becomes more difficult. Just keep tightening until the parts are drawn together and then a little more until tight. Only use the Allen wrench to avoid overtightening (stripping the threads). The long rails scissor in half allowing you to do most of the work standing up quite easily. Before putting on the heavy cross slats position the frame where you want it. Attach a headboard as desired (see image for brackets I used to lower the holes so I could wire the head board to the legs, the foam blocks made for good backing between headboard and wall). Then finish up by adding the slats. When wall to wall carpeting is present, position the frame legs 1.5 to 2 inches away from the wall edge. There is a perimeter tack strip that holds the rug and you don't want the frame legs to be on top of the tack strip which will hold that end of the bed up about a quarter inch or so, making the frame not level. I was able to assemble the product by myself in about 2.5 hours. Read more
It's a smaller package than I expected, as the long pieces come with strong hinges. It was a snap, a few minutes, to put together, with all the screws/nuts/tools included (and even a packet of "extra parts", which were not needed). The only complaint is that the frame does not have raised corners to keep the bed square on the frame, which allows the bed to slide around and need to be readjusted if it does. I think that's an important flaw. But other than that, seems to be a great item. Read more
So easy to build and makes the mattress feel like it's on a box spring. Nice and low profile keeping my kids from trying to crawl under. The mattress doesn't slide around and really makes it less stiff for memory foam. 10/10 Read more
This is very easy to assemble (one old woman!). Sturdy and perfect for under my boneless modular sectional. Recommend this item in any size. Bonus that it folds easily for moving. Read more
Wanted a low platform type bed and honestly I love it. Its perfect. Sadly the one thing I wish is that it was slightly recessed to prevent the mattress from sliding which it does, but I bought some pieces from elsewhere to help with that. I love it though! Easy build. Looks great. Sturdy. I'd buy it again. Read more
This is sturdy and noiseless. It is low to the ground so great for our three year old. I just took one star away because the edges are kind of sharp and it’s a bit slippery (the mattress tends to slide), but overall good value! Read more
