I’d been looking to replace my metal bed frame with one where the bolts didn’t work their way loose from everyday use when I got bombarded with ads for frames with Japanese or Scandinavian joinery. I know the quality of this joinery, but was cautious about the many Internet companies bombarding social media so I did some more digging and found this company.
I’m so glad I did. First, the bed arrived ahead of schedule - even with back orders/supply chain issues around the world.
Second. Each part of the bed was packaged so well. Shrink-wrapped pieces, further protected in styrofoam and boxes. I think it took longer to unwrap all the pieces than to assemble the bed. Every single piece that came out was beautiful - each surface was sanded smooth and sealed - even the interiors of the notches where the side rails and head/footboards interlock. The 2 rolls of slats were also finished. No unfinished plywood threatening to splinter here.
The pieces interlock for a tight, flawless fit, providing a strong and stable support for my mattress, nothing to wiggle loose. And because the feet are wide, the bed also moves easily across the carpet, making it a breeze for one person to reposition it.
And as an added bonus, the upholstered headboard from my old bed, slid perfectly on the ledge behind my mattress like it was meant to be there. It’s snug & no longer moves about as it did on the frame it was made for (bad fastener design). I’m thrilled because I didn’t want to lose my soft headboard but was so tired of the squeaky metal frame and how the bolts liked to work their way loose from normal use of the bed. Now I get the best of both worlds. Thank you!
This bed is even better than I expected and at several hundred below competitors‘ pricing (and with more styles to choose from.). It really is stunning.
