Elephance Full Size Metal Bed Frame with Vintage Headboard Platform Bed

Was easy to assemble and the instructions were very clear. This bed is quite sturdy and comfortable with the right mattress. It’s also very beautiful and practical. Would recommend especially for a single lady or a young teenage girl.

Sturdy and great quality! Easy to put together.

I'm 73 and had to stretch this project out to 2 days, lots of parts, it was relatively easy to assemble, instructions are easy to follow, all parts are packed in plastic like new batteries, didn't cut any fingers though, the only place I panicked a little was the last step when I had to slide the top and bottom section together, it was tight, but, a gentle hammering got it in. I was happy with myself. Very sturdy, great quality also. Box arrived perfect and on time.

This bed frame is **not as easy to assemble as the video suggests**. If you live in a condo, ensure that the delivery person drops it to your door, as its very heavy to move. In reality, it’s very much a two-person job. If you’re assembling it alone, be prepared for frustration and a significant time commitment due to the large number of parts, nuts, and bolts. The headboard assembly, in particular, was extremely time-consuming. When I followed the instructions and video—layering the bars and attaching them to the base and curved frame—the middle bar simply would not align. There was a noticeable gap. I disassembled everything, assuming I had made a mistake, and tried again, but ran into the same issue. Eventually, through trial and error, I discovered that four of the bars were slightly longer (by about half an inch), which caused the misalignment and uneven curve. I was only able to fix the headboard after identifying and adjusting for this issue. The overall assembly process is also challenging because of the angles involved. You’ll likely need some kind of support (like a stool) to hold parts in place while attaching them, as they tend to shift or fall. Having a second person would make this much easier and faster. There are also **too many screws**, especially the ones with round nuts, which are difficult to secure using the included Allen wrench. This puts a lot of strain on your hands and makes the process even more tedious. As for the final product, the bed is just okay. The middle support bar sits about half an inch off the ground, though it levels out somewhat once the mattress is placed on top. Overall, I would **not recommend this bed**, especially if you get frustrated easily or expect a straightforward assembly. Unless you’re prepared for a lengthy and somewhat frustrating setup, this may not be the right choice. Personally, if I had the option again, I wouldn’t buy it—but returning it would be even more difficult, so I’m making do with it.

Such a beautiful bed. Took us about an hour to put together. The only hard part was the support bars across the frame don’t lock in perfectly but the bed is still pretty supportive. Plus great for the price.

Love the way it looks, but it took every bit of patience I had to put it together. The vertical slats on the headboard at first wouldn’t slide in enough to tighten it all together. Once I bent the holes a little that they slide into it finally went together. BUT the worst part were the horizontal slats where the mattress lays on. OMG I thought I was going to loose my mind! The video lied. They don’t just slide in one side then the other and click into place. You have to line them up perfectly while keeping them at the top of the hole on each side before they can snap down into place. So much back and forth, falling out, and if the one side slips down and clicks into place then the other side won’t go into the hole at all. I’m not joking, it was pure HE-double-LL and the curse words flying from my mouth would’ve made a sailor blush. But after about 45 minutes of pure anger, frustration and a bloody knuckle they’re in and everything seems real sturdy. No squeaking sounds and everything tightened up really tight. I couldn’t be more happy to be done and glad the frustration led to something worth the effort. Everything else was relatively straightforward and easy. I would definitely recommend to have someone else there to help if possible.

Pretty and sturdy. I persuaded my teen granddaughter and her friend to assemble it, so it must have been easy to put together. Just be careful because it's easy to smack a toe on the middle floor bar when changing sheets.

My granddaughter chose this bed from looking at the photos. She preferred a design with an open end rather than a foot board. It was a good choice because the appearance is very nice. The engineering is great. It was easy to put together, all the parts are numbered and the bolts are all lettered. Assembly takes some time, if you like to do things right the first time. Included tools are adequate for assembly, although we also used my personal tools to speed up the project. The box had some damage in four places when it arrived, but there were no dings or scratches on the bed. It is sturdy with no squeaks or noises at all. The bottom of the mattress is recessed lower than the side and end rails so it will not slide off the platform. The photo shown is the bed with a 12" mattress and the overall height is about 24" above the floor,
