Ace of Base Metal Bed Frame

This frame is easy to put together. Really sturdy. Price is great. Need to have a carpet under it so it doesn’t slide.And you can fit stuff under the bed.

**UPDATE**I’ve had this frame for 2.5 years, and over the past couple of weeks my mattress has been sagging slightly, and when I moved the frame to vacuum I heard a clanging sound… Assumed that—most certainly—I had finally broken this frame due to my weight. After I lifted the mattress to check out the damage, I was shocked to find that the center support had merely fallen off: from my most recent move, it appears that the movers didn’t tighten the support center bolts when reassembling the frame! Ten minutes of realigning bars and tightening bolts, this frame remains good as new: a totally unexpected delight. I’m updating this review laying on my mattress, once again fully supported with no sagging… if you’re reading this? Buy it. An exceptionally made product underscored by sustaining no damage even without the center support beam attached for a spell.(Former Review)I have elected to sleep with a mattress on the floor for the majority of the past seven years after three ill-fated moments featuring a bed frame from IKEA (particle board snapped clear through when I sat on it), one of the so called “heavy-duty” fold out frames (endless creaking), and my last investment in 2015 of another “heavy-duty” frame where the slats cracked literally on the first night.I currently weigh ~400+ pounds, and most frames cannot handle the static weight of a singular body of this mass plus the weight of a mattress due to stress points and poor manufacturing. I’ve waited a couple of months to provide feedback on this piece... let me tell you, this frame is THE ONE. 1) There is no creaking or squeaking. 2) The foundation is supported 360-degrees with welding, so the weight distribution is phenomenal. 3) The middle bar and legs have not cracked, bent, or warped (likely due to the exterior construction), and at the 30-day mark when I removed the mattress to tighten up the bolts for preventive maintenance, they had hardly loosened at all, indicating very little frame motion impact with my body weight.I live with a disability that is physically kicking my a** due to balance and coordination issues, and the ability to get in and out of bed easier and safer—vs. when the mattress was on the ground—is life changing. It’s so much nicer to leave rehabilitative physical therapy and crawl into a bed that is higher off the floor... and not have to worry about something snapping.Don’t hesitate. Assembly was a breeze... and it looks good, too.

Don’t worry if the box comes damaged… the bedframe is packed very well. It’s double boxed and separated by foam so even if the outside box is damaged, your bed should be fine. The assembly was quite easy even for me. I am a 47 year old female, 5‘2“ and 110 pounds. I am fit, but I’m not brawny. The assembly itself was easy, but I did huff and puff a little bit and sweat a lot! The bed is inexpensive, but it doesn’t look inexpensive. All the pieces are well-made with no sharp edges to catch your shins during the night. The finish is matte and slightly texturized so that there won’t be any scratches. The screws, which come with an Allen wrench are big and nice looking even though you won’t see them. Back to the assembly it is like paint by numbers. Basically you just match the numbers and connect at those points. Very simple to understand. Please excuse the pictures. I am not the best bed maker and I don’t have the nicest bed clothes because, well, dog and cat, you know. I like my beds to be against walls because I like to make the most of the space that I have. This bed is very easy to move around so that you can change the sheets. This is a very nice looking bad very modern and minimalist.

Nice size and worth the price. It does tend to shake a little when you’re on it. You have to retighten the screws every so often, but other than that it’s a great bed.

Very impressed! Would definitely recommend. Was looking for something low and this was all I could find, so very happy it was a good find.I'm creating a couch (daybed for guests) from a memory foam twin mattress I had. I ordered Wednesday and it wasn't to arrive until next Wednesday and I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived today (Friday)! The cover for the mattress hadn't even shipped yet so I put a piece of fabric on it for now. Even the dog approves...Now for assembly info. It takes two people, but one can do it all if you have patience and read it thoroughly before starting. By myself it took me 30 minutes to put together, so probably 15 for 2 people. I took everything out, made sure nothing was missing and layed everything out so it was easy to grab when I needed it. It's packed very well, and is very heavy (made of steel ~ I wanted something that would last forever). Took me longer to unpack it than it did to assemble. It's relatively easy to put together, just make sure you don't push all the brackets together at once or two won't get hooked. I connect by opposites (kiddy corner) and it went together without a problem. Make sure everything is set flush so all the screws go in correctly ~ one or two weren't flush so I just tapped the end of the frame with my fist and they went all the way in.Also I did not take the backing off the sticky slats (to prevent the mattress from moving) until I have the fabric cover on the mattress first and know I have it where I want it.Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a low platform frame (5" off the ground).
