ZINUS Van 16 Inch Metal Platform Bed Frame / Steel Slat Support / No Box Spring Needed / Easy Assembly, Full

I’ve had this frame for six months with a 13 inch mattress and a Bunky board to protect the mattress. It is really working out well for me. I have six jumbo storage bags of clothes, linen and such under the bed and no one would ever know it. The frame was easy to assemble and I did nothing extra, just assembled it according to the directions.. It doesn’t wobble at all or make any sounds. I will say that my new mattress was sliding around the frame quite a bit until I bought the Bunky board which has an anti-skid fabric on one side. This solved the issue immediately, but it was driving me a little nuts. I would definitely purchase this frame again if ever I needed to.

My wife and I had this thing together in about 30 minutes or less. I admit I got a little "stuck" on the very first step, but once my wife helped me envision that first step, the rest was simple. The frame assembles in 11 steps, with each step marked by part letters on the instruction sheet that corresponds to the metal parts. The frame comes with the necessary screws, some wrenches, and a few spare screws/bolts, plus the metal bed parts themselves. This thing is VERY sturdy. We bought the king size with the 16" legs, so our frame is large and somewhat high (you can get this in any size, and also with 12" legs). But even so, the extensive grid of connected metal parts, some of which are bolted together, some of which are screwed together, and others that just slip into place, make for a very rigid completed structure. All the parts came together without issue, there were no missing parts, and all the legs were of the correct height, making a level assembly on a flat floor (i.e., no legs were too short, with a gap underneath). It was fantastic when finished, because we could then dispense with the dreaded "box spring," all of which seem to creak and squeak, plus never seems to provide the support you want, particularly if you deal with lower back problems. You may sense with this frame, like with most any frame, some transfer movement from your partner when he or she rolls over, but it is VERY minimal. The upper frame parts are also covered with both sticky tape to keep the mattress in place and also thick rubber overlays at certain points to reduce noise. The assembled frame really is very quiet. So, you just open the box, read the directions while you review the parts, assemble the frame step-by-step using the provided tools, then put your mattress directly on the frame, and you are done! You can also purchase a bed skirt to go around the sides for a finished look, and a headboard can also be attached at the front if desired. Of course, if you need to move the frame, you can disassemble it, and then reassemble it anytime. The frame is too heavy and unwieldy to pick up and move in its assembled state. Beyond the sheer quality and sturdiness of the thing, I keep asking myself how they can sell this frame so inexpensively. I guess it's because, in the end, it is simply a set of metal rods, screws, and bolts, and so production economies of scale kick in. But I can truly say I wish I had purchased this thing years ago. It's sturdy, super firm quiet, and can be disassembled if necessary. We both give it our highest rating.

It's a great bed frame, but will NOT work with a Sleep Number mattress UNKESS you add extra support on top of the slats, such as plywood or plastic and I don't suggest doing that because other issues arise. (The reason it won't work is because the slats are too far apart to properly support the air mattress and it pulls out the air tubes from your system, and also wears out the bottom matress covering from being shoved thru the slats.) For those without a Sleep Number... The bed frame itself is fantastic! It's super sturdy, quiet and looks nice! I assembled it myself. There's no reason it couldn't support 2 large people. It's the perfect height for people like me with knee problems and gives ample storage underneath. The instructions are flawless and super easy to follow. It come with all tools needed and even extra parts, just in case. All parts are clearly marked and could be put together even without a set of instructions. I highly recommend this bed frame for all mattresses, other than Sleep Number. I am giving this frame to a friend who has a memory foam mattress and getting a platform bed frame. I wish this would have worked for my SN mattress...

I’ve had this frame in a full for almost 3 years. It’s easy to assemble. It’s sturdy but it does creak and can make noise. It’s not compatible with a headboard. The color is truly black and really adds to a modern interior design. It’s true to size and came with good bolts and screws. The mattress does slide even with sticky tape.

After looking at many of these bed frames designed to provide storage space we landed on this on. Many reviews were read, detailed analysis of construction, etc. took place before we selected this frame. Assembly - went together pretty easily. I did not like that the screws that were hidden once assembled did not have any lock washers. I used the Loctite Red thread locker to ensure they would not come loose and start to make noise. Minimally you should buy some lock washers. After assembly the frame was out of square by about a 1/4 inch on the diagonal - but not enough to be problematic. Use - our new mattress was on order so we tried our current mattress directly on the slats provided. I was surprised how well they supported the mattress. However, after three weeks there was noticable mattress oozing between the slats. Therefore, when our new mattress arrived we first put down 3/8 plywood to stop the ooze. Durability - after a month I cannot speak to long term durability. But when we swapped mattresses we checked all the legs to see if any were bent or twisted as some reviews reported. All were secure and straight. To date there have been no rattles, squeaks, or any other metal on metal sounds. Storage - loads of space! Overall very pleased - but we did supplement in areas that we had concerns about heading in. Note - the concerns we had applied to all frames of this nature. But if you use your noggin and address any perceived weakness before it becomes a problem you will be pleased. Last note, our frame is on a carpeted floor. Aa such it does not move. If you are placing directly on hardwood you should find some reviews in which the owner is using in hardwood to determine movement and/or floor damage.

Are you looking for something affordable, simple and sturdy? This was exactly what we were looking for and I’m super impressed. We originally got this to replace our previous boxspring that was made by the same company we purchased the mattress from. It was made of wood and completely broken so we needed something strong that would hold up. I’m very handy and I can usually tell if something is going to be a pain to put together or flimsy pretty quickly. However, I was immediately impressed with the materials and the fact that they included a nice ratchet wrench. It took me about 30 minutes or so to put together. We got the king size for our guest room so the box was pretty heavy. It says to use two people to carry it. I always say, “two people or one stubborn DIY-er”. I was able to get this down into our basement and set it up all alone. I like that this is 16 inches off the floor. Our guests will have room to fit their bags under the bed and out of the way. This does have metal cross bars which could make noise over time. However, they have put a foam strip down the center support rod which prevents any noises from occurring for now. The only negative for me is there would be no way to attach a headboard. I’m sure you could figure it out though if that’s something you decided on doing.

UPDATE 3: Going on 3 years with this bed frame and I have to say this is one of the best frames after it has gotten over its creekiness. Like a few other people have said if you tighten up the screws and spray them with a little WD40 after about a week or so of sleeping on it then it is a really good bed. We recently moved and when we put it back together I didn't have to use the WD40 again for it to not be squeaky. Still wish it had a little bit of a lip to it so the mattress didn't move around too much because once you move the mattress the sticky pads come off a little bit and aren't as sticky to hold it down, but they are still good. Definitely worth the buy and I 100% suggest this brand to everyone. 5/5 stars. UPDATE 2: The squeak has gotten so horrible it wakes us up. Going to try tightening and wd40 like others said. Hope that works. EDIT: Have used this bed for a few weeks now and it has started to creek worse than any wooden bed I've had. Idk what to do to make it stop by is disappointing with the bed being so nice and sturdy. I'm not a fan of the og type of bed with the wooden slats because of the noise they make, and how unsecure they feel just sitting there(think Ikea beds). So when I found this one I was super excited! Its super sturdy, just the right height(even for someone who is 5'6 like me), and was super easy to put together even alone. Only thing I wish there was a sort of recess for the mattress to sit into instead of it just chilling on the top, but the sticky pads to keep it in place.

After my nectar foundation failed, and the parts shipping was going to take months to get me the new side rails, I ended up ordering this in the middle of the night. I read all of these reviews, watched a few videos, and ended up pulling the trigger. The assembly is daunting, no doubt about it. There are many separate pieces, but they are all clearly labelled. The little ratchet tool is great. It took me probably about 45 minutes to complete the build after pulling the old frame apart. The parts all go together well. The instructions are clear and simple. I made sure to add rubber/felt pads to the bottom of the feet and a anti-slip mat to hold the mattress still. The frame is sturdy, and actually makes my mattress much more comfortable than the nectar frame. I don't feel the slats under me at all. The storage underneath is huge, and wonderful. I now have my blankets in tubs and I can fit 4 rubbermaid tubs, and two rubbermaid under bed sheet storage boxes under this monster. Overall I strongly recommend this foundation. I have slept on it 2 nights now, and it doesn't squeak, or creak (Unlike the old nectar foundation) The pads on the bottom of the feet make the floor safe from the legs. The only thing I need to address is putting a pool noodle on the side legs to avoid ripping my toes off on it.

La base es "facil" de armar aun para una sola persona. No hace ruido pese a ser de este material uno pensaria que rechinaria o haria algun ruido. tiene dos factores que no le favorecen, ambos desde mi perspectiva personal , una por error mio y la otra es bastante ambigua. la base es tan ligera, que hace que toda la cama se mueva con facilidad, lo cual puede ayudar para la limpieza o entorpecer el uso si la cama se pega a una pared. y la segunda , error mio, pedi modelo queen para una cama matrimonial y sobra muchisimo espacio en la base, fijense bien en eso antes de pedirla. como referencia, peso 100 kilos y la base soporta sin problemas

Excelente opción para los que se mudan de vivienda ya que se desarma fácilmente y se puede transportar en un auto, resistente segura firme y de buena calidad, también fácil de armar, lo recomiendo ampliamente.

These are only first impressions as I only just installed the platform yesterday. But I am pleased. It frees up a pretty substantial amount of space not having the box spring, which I appreciate both visually (makes the room feel more open) and functionally (makes it much easier to clean under the bed, and can be used for storage). Assembly was relatively painless. I give a lot of credit for them including a ratchet, rather than just the standard Allen wrench, as I found that exceptionally useful. The way the instructions are set-up is unique from my experience, but it worked well enough. All the parts are labelled with numbered stickers, but they don't identify the part, they identify a specific *location* on the part. You line that up with diagrams in the instructions, e.g. that show a 2 and a 2 locking together. It's curious that the numbers are not entirely unique, they are duplicated in multiple places on multiple parts, but with some light deduction you can figure it out. There aren't that many parts to get confused with, and the shapes are sufficiently different. It is a bit confusing that the instructions have letter identifiers for each part, but the parts are not labeled with those letters. You'd have to look at the manual and figure out which letter is which part based on shape, but this is redundant since you can also just look a the shape of the part in the assembly diagrams. Anyways it sorts itself if you take your time. The parts fit together snugly and I have confidence in the strength and stability of the platform. There is adhesive on some the support beams to prevent the mattress from slipping around. That is useful, because otherwise there would not be a lot of friction between the mattress and the metal platform. Though this does make it more challenging to get the mattress in place. It might be easier if you had someone helping you to gently lay the mattress in the specific correct position (as opposed to me, working alone, flopping it onto the platform and then needing to fight the adhesive to adjust it to the correct position). I am happy to be freed of my decade-old box spring, and to have replaced it with something more space-efficient and durable. My cat ripped off the fabric covering the bottom, and amidst the wooden beams and springs discovered an exciting jungle gym for him to bounce around in at 4 am.

Ok

Exelente producto me gustó mucho lo volvería a comprar
