Zinus Brandy Upholstered Vertical Detailed Platform Bed / Mattress Foundation / Easy Assembly / Strong Wood Slat Support, Queen

This bed is a LOT of bang for the buck. It was easy to set up, and it looks great in our room, though the headboard is lower than I'm used to with more traditional looking beds. My wife picked this out, and she knows more about style and taste than I ever will. The entire piece came boxed and packaged within the headboard, very clever and super effective. The bed is very sturdy, and I am not worried in the slightest about wear over the years except for POSSIBLY the fabric on the side due to children and dogs doing what children and dogs do. My one mild complaint is the plastic feet. My wife likes them, but to me they look cheap in our otherwise nice bedroom. I believe if you didn't personally interact with them during the building process, you would never really notice them. But, I did, and they do bother me a small bit. However, it is not difficult to find alternate furniture feet at your local box store or order them elsewhere. The feet use standard bolts that can be picked up at a hardware store, and some nicer finished wood feet could be a nice upgrade. I'll put that on my extensive project list, but it had better be behind the fence and the living room if I'd like to stay sleeping in this very nice bed with my wife :).Tips: Build on a level surface, follow the directions exactly, and do not fully tighten ANY bolts until the directions tell you to. Do not force anything in. If you have to force it, then a corresponding bolt is likely just too tight (it may have seemed loose but bolts tend to bind up as you add additional pieces that start pulling them in different directions). Loosen any suspect bolts and move the piece causing you trouble back and forth, up and down, and side to side until everything shifts and falls into place.

First of all, the color is NOT as it displays in the product image - it is a medium gray that leans towards warm, not the light taupe that I am seeing on my color calibrated monitor. There weren't any customer photos when I placed my order, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but both taupe and gray would have worked for us, so I was willing to take the risk.The bed is absolutely fantastic. Whoever engineered this thing should get some kind of award. The headboard comes securely double boxed, and everything you need is organized in a zipper compartment in the headboard. They even include spare screws!Putting it together was ridiculously easy and barely required any tools. I've spent many hours assembling IKEA furniture before, and in comparison this was a walk in the park. On top of that, as everyone says, the bed is incredibly sturdy. I did put some non-skid pads on all the legs ( Scotch Gripping Pads Value Pack, 36 Pads/Pack, Round, Brown, Various Sizes, (SP941-NA) ) since we have hardwoods, but even without that I feel like you could jump on the bed and it wouldn't move. I was not expecting that at the price point, so that was a pleasant surprise from Zinus!Another thing that was a very pleasant surprise was the slat width - the slats are just under 3" wide with about 2 1/4" spacing between them which means that you can use them for your foam mattress! I had to add slats to my old platform bed, so it was great to not have to bother with that again.The mattress in the photos is a 10" thick Queen sized Spindle, and with the pillows down it looks just like the product photo with buttons showing. If you prefer to stand the pillows, the button detail will likely be covered.Overall I am very happy with this purchase. Yes, it lacks in refinement compared to a $1500+ bed from C&B or West Elm, but at the price point it's a fantastic deal - this is a sturdy, quality bed frame that I expect to last a while.

I was worried about buying this product at first because there was no product review. I really like it and decided to take the gamble. I am glad I did the product is great solid product and I was impressed. I didn't bother to look and see where it was made but it didn't feel like Chinnes junk. It was easy to assemble once I gave up on the directions. The directions were a nightmare so I tossed them across the room. Lucky for me I am a man so I don't need directions. The bed frame even came with extra screws and bolts! Seriously it did! The extra screws were labeled extra on the package. If I had to make a complaint I would say shipping took over a week even with prim. The object was really large and heavy so expect shipping delays. Also there is not a lot of height beweet the floor and the bed to store anything under the bed. I had some plastic storage container under my old bed that would not fit under this bed frame. So to summarize pros: well built product, great quality. Cons: Very heavy and took a while to ship and confusing instructions. Side notes: not much storage room under the bed

This is a solid made bed. At first receipt, it takes a few minutes to determine how all of the parts are assembled. Instructions are helpful, but not crystal clear. The design is clever. The fastening features allow for easy match up. So no worries about trying to align blind holes with fasteners. The only trick I saw was that the metal frame could be aligned incorrectly if you don't read the instructions. I had initially tried to start mounting the headboard, but determined the bottom frame needed to be rotated 90 degrees. It is an easy mistake, But was I completed the rotation, the assembly was smooth. Took about 1 hour. The horizontal slats that support the mattress are velcroed together which makes for a much easier installation. The materials is grey in color with some white weave to break up the solid grey color. The material looks good and looks easy to maintain. It is a well designed bed. Not noisy when you get on.

Arrived on time. Pkg was a tad bit torn and I worried the bed might have been damaged.Unboxed and to my surprise, it was perfect.Love that all the pieces are inside the headboard which made it easy to find everything. The slats have velcro attached that are super sticky to the side panels which makes it sturdy. No chance for the slats to move.Took about 30 minutes to put together and when completed, looks great. Love it!

This is my second , I bought one this summer for my spare room a dark grey one love love it I had to buy one for my kind size master bed room this time the lighter oneEasy to put together I did it myself as I did the other one myselfIt it so intuitive the bolts are in place. They give you a ratchet you hook and tighten it was so easy after I took all the pieces upstairs I took me prol 40 ish minIt’s sturdy affordable clean lines great fabric easy assemblyI will buy this company again !!

The first time I put a bed frame and headboard together was one my aunt. She purchased one from a high end furniture store. It took four hours to put together and could not attach headboard due to missing parts. This unit came with spare parts, no allen key but a ratchet key instead. From start to finish 1& 1/2 hours and guys picture instructions no confusing words. BEST EVER. My wife and I never swore once while we worked on this. Never seen anything so well engineered.

The media could not be loaded.  I don’t know where to start. I’m in love with this bed and if I could marry it, I would. (Sup Jerry Springer) I have a 5 year old grand daughter who legit helped me put this bed together. It’s beautiful and sturdy. It took the two of us about an hour and a half to assemble. If it was two adults, it would have taken about 45 mins. I have looked everywhere for a bed like this. I looked at major furniture stores and ikea and everywhere. And I came across this Amazon beauty. Shipping took a week, perfect. Love it. Thank you for making this bed. OH YEAH!!!! All the materials for putting it together were all packed into the headboard. You just unzip the back and blammo, everything you need. Including the Allen key ratchet. The instructions were so great. 12 steps. That’s it. Okay. That is all. :)

I’m sooo happy with this bed frame, the quality & the integrity this company has towards the customers happiness & satisfaction,Right down to the sincere note & cards they include. This company aced it at customer experience, it’s on another level. It arrived a few days later than expected but when I got this, I was so impressed I don’t even care about the wait. It was worth it & every penny!The entire set up comes neatly packaged zipped up within the headboard which can also double as a secret hiding spot for whatever lolIt is also a breeze to put together, the instructions were straight to the point (pictures made it simple) I actually enjoyed doing It ( And I have never said that about putting anything together before) It was so easy & they provide all the tools necessary for A quick set up.Best purchase on Amazon Ever!!!I’m a first time customer of Zinus turned Instant loyal customer.Will Definitely be checking out Zinus’s other products!They have my trust & I can’t wait to see what else they’ve got in store.Other companies could learn from them!
