This is a fantastic bed for a New Yorker in a small apartment. My closet is literally one foot wide so having the extra storage for out of season clothing, extra bedding and luggage really saves my life. You could put those things under a normal bed in a normal bedroom, but this completely prevents having to lug out under bed bins and also not having tons of space on either side to do so.
The depth is about a foot. I do have one very large suitcase that wont fit underneath, but all my carry on luggage fits below. I have four large rolling underbed storage boxes inside, two carry on sized suitcases (filled with other travel paraphernalia and duffes, tote bags etc, my laptop bag, extra towels, 3 sheets sets with pillowcases and random small items that I just dont need to have out but cant part with.
Im 56 and have no issues lifting the bed up to access the storage or putting it back down, although I do have to reach and give a hard push down. It might be difficult for someone very short or without a lot of strength. There is a pull strap at the foot of the frame to assist with this if you cant reach the top but I feel like its a lot harder to pull down that way.
Assembly was not super easy. We made a few missteps and had to retrace our steps to get it right. Im probably not going to enjoy moving this when the time comes either, but thats not in the near future and since I got the full size, I would imagine I might be able to move it intact.
There is a gridlike support base inside of the storage area - so the bed isnt open to the floor. You would have to be careful to put smaller heavier objects onto the support base and not in the space in between, though there is a thin fabric covered liner that goes on top of the base... it just didnt feel incredibly strong to me.
I am using this with a memory foam mattress and no box spring. I understand that this bed can be used with both, but personally, I think it would look weird and cover up a large portion of the headboard. There is a full sprung wood base thats part of the bed, so I think most mattresses could be used on this without a box spring. My memory foam seemed much more comfortable and seemed to have more give after taking it off of the old box spring I was using previously.
I paid around $275 for this bed on . Its the same bed you can find on Ostock although its listed as a different manufacturer on their website. When I was shopping around for a new bed, they had it listed for almost $100 more on their website.
One caveat - I was missing pieces important for Step 2 when I initially received the bed. However, had the parts sent out to me fairly quickly, but required a lot of documentation to get them. Still. Worth it. I love this bed.
It looks really great after setting it up. Difficult process to do it alone but with help from 1 more person we were able to set it up in 2 hrs. Everything was very well documented. Its worth your money.
This was a pain to put together towards the end. I did well maneuvering all the parts and keeping track of what goes where, but when the time came to attach the bed frame to the hydraulic pumps I died. Definitely could have used a helping hand it took me like an hour to get it to angle properly.
But once that was all taken care of, this is a really great bed. No creaking, once everything is attached the bed lifts easily, and the headboard is nice and soft.
I love the color, the fabric, its very elagnant. The only problem that I ran into is its was a queen frame and I had queen mattress that did not fit the whole frame.
After reading reviews I was reluctant. I am laying on my bed of now 6 months with no problems whatsoever. I love my bed sooo much. I am 32 years old 172 lbs. My mother yes my mother lol helped me put this together. I will say that we used power tools...a drill electic to screw the screws. This bed is unbelievably sturdy IM IN LOVE GUYS THANKS SO MUCH FYI dont use the package tools i mean cant really screw the screws in tight in sturdy with that alone.

We got this for our daughters bedroom. She loved it. The storage area is a great place for her extra blankets.
A sophisticated piece for storage and small spaces

It was easy to assemble and seems very sturdy
Product came with a small indent on the headboard but overall it was totally worth the low price. It was easy to assemble and seems very sturdy.
We got this bed for our toddler and we love it!
