Side by Side Comparison of: Zinus vs SafeRest

I researched beds for about 2-3 months and I am very happy with my decision to get this bed. It arrived a day earlier than expected which was great because my mattress came the same day as the bed frame. I did need help to get it in the house but I really had no problem putting the bed together by myself and it took maybe 30-45 minutes. I purchased a 10 inch memory foam mattress to go with the frame and I love that since it is a platform bed, I don't need a box spring! The bed is sturdy and it looks really good in my room. I love my bed!!

This bed is a great value. I would of course not rate 5 stars vs $1000 + beds, but for less than $300, its easy to assemble, looks nice and was quite sturdy with a 100 lb mattress and 350 pounds of adults / dog sleeping on it. Assembly was straight forward, with the whole process, from cutting the box, to placing the mattress on top, taking about 45 minutes. The most time will be spent tightening the screws, so i would recommend having a second allen wrench on hand (one is provided in the box) so two people can work on tightening at once.

Absolutely stunning, well made, and comfortable Bed frame!We have been sleeping on it for about 2 weeks now and its wonderful! We had a very tall bed before and it was bulky with a simmons beautyrest black pillow top mattress on it.We now have this frame with the cool gell 12" classic brands memory foam mattress and couldn't be happier with it! It is sleek and modern feeling and I no longer feel like my furniture is going to swallow me whole.If you are looking to buy this, then do it!Shipping was fast and free and my husband put it together all by himself. He said it was packaged very good.The frame is sturdy and the headboard has a nice cushion to it and I can sit my tablet and cell phone on top of the headboard to charge while I sleep.If you are looking for a mattress then I suggest the same as what I got, classic brands 12" cool gel memory foam mattress. It is very nice and fits perfectly, my sheets I have fit it as well. In the reviews I read they say a lot about it having a smell after opening it up but I never smelled it once! Also the reviews say it takes a few days before you can sleep on it and we were laying on it within 30 minutes of opening it and slept on it that night with no issues!I have one more thing to say about this frame and the memory mattress and that is.... in our local big brand name furniture store the equivalent set up cost over $1,500.00 and we paid $700.00 (really lessbbecause we sold our old furniture on Craigslist and used that money to purchase this new bed so our out of pocket was a couple hundred dollars)

I'm very happy that I got this bed to go with the mattress that I also ordered off Amazon (Signature Sleep 12 inch memory foam mattress King). The bed was very easy to put together and I appreciated that the side rails and everything came packaged inside the head board. The back of the Headboard zips so you can hide your weapons or expensive jewlery whatever in there. The slats actually velcro into place which was a really nice bonus if you've ever owned an Ikea bed then you know the feeling of falling in the fall in the middle of the night... No worries for that with this bed. The quality is above Ikea and I recommend it for Americans that are on a budget but want a bed that looks more expensive. The headboard is not visible when you have your pillows up, so if you are looking for a tall statement headboard it is not for you! I didn't mind because I have a mirror above my bed for decor. This bed was easy to assemble and one person could do it alone. The tool they give you is not as superior as the ikea tool. So if you have a spare ikea tool lying around bust it out for this bed. If you order the King size, make sure you have three euro sized pillows to fit across because I only had two on my King sized and it looks weird. My husband is 6'4" 270lbs and I am 5' 140lbs and the bed supports us. The cat likes to walk across the top of the headboard and his nails sort of pulled at the fabric but hey what can you do.

WOW. JUST WOW!!! I am so happy with this product. Like most people I was hesitant to buy a bedframe online. I consider myself pretty picky and this by far exceeded expectations. The only thing I don't like is it sits rather low but this seriously was the easiest thing I've ever put together. A bed frame that saves marriages people. Hahaha. Only took my husband and I about 30 minutes to put together. Everything is pre drilled and screwed so it literally is a few wrenches and the slats lay across the top. This will be an easy bed frame to move because the head board zips up all the parts. Yes... I know. That is awesome!!!!! Thank you for such a great product and the prime shipping.

We purchased this bed frame in queen and it just arrived last night. So far, we absolutely love it and I anticipate we will continue to love it. First of all, it arrived about 5 days before we expected, which is fantastic. The entire thing only took about 30 minutes for us to put together. It's tall enough that normal storage boxes fit underneath which was a huge selling point for me. The entire thing is very sturdy and well made. The color is light and looks beautiful. Our mattress (no box spring needed) is about 12 inches and ends up covering a majority of the headboard once the bed is made (see picture) but it still looks beautiful. All the pieces come zipped in the headboard and once it's built actually would work quite well for extra blanket storage! The slats have Velcro and won't move. Nothing seems poorly made in the slightest. Extremely great value & I highly recommend this bed.

Absolutely love this cover! It serves its purpose very well. Its super thin and is not noisy. It has saved our mattress multiple times from being stained from our dog that has a sensitive stomach and occasional has times when she vomits. And of course she likes to vomit on our bed, because that's where she feels the most secure when she doesnt feel well. I did read a few bad review before buying this that it does not provide complete water proof abilities and was hesitant, but tried it anyway. I dont know why other people were experiencing non water/liquid proof results because this cover has been a life saver for us and my photos are proof of this; and sorry for the pics being gross. My dog actually vomited directly on the cover after I was in the process of a sheet change, which made it perfect for me to take a few quick pictures of this cover in action!When accidents do happen I dont like to wash the whole cover in the washer, I Just hand wash the area with the dirty spot directly in the tub and hang it to dry. I have washed it in the washer and dried it in the dryer, but I know the more I do that the quicker it will most likely wear out, so I recommend hand washing the area where the accident occurs and letting it hang dry.A

I bought this mattress cover for our bed in our brand new travel trailer since it was fairly inexpensive, claimed to be water proof, and had great reviews. I thought that since we weren't going to be using the trailer all that often, I didn't need to buy an expensive mattress cover and a cheap one should work just fine. I had no idea how desperately I was going to need this.I was moving some items from our house into our trailer, and had to take several trips so I kept running back and forth. One of the minor issues with our trailer, that we are getting adjusted by the dealership next week, is that the screen door latch doesn't securely hold the screen door closed. When I was running back and forth between the house and the trailer, occasionally the door would swing open. No big deal, or so I thought. I locked up the trailer and went on my way.Eight days later, I got into the trailer again. I noticed a few things out of place, which made me wary. I started glancing around, when I noticed glowing eyes staring at me from the lower bunk bed. After recovering from my shock, I discovered that a stray cat had found its way into the trailer, and its only opportunity to get in had been 8 days prior. It was amazing that it was still alive with no food and no water. After I coaxed it out of the trailer with some food, I set about to find where the cat had done its business for 8 days. I found it almost immediately. One could not miss the urine stain that spanned almost the entire width of our queen bed. I threw out our sheets and prepped myself for the looming reality that our bed was ruined. I stripped the bed of the mattress pad and couldn't find a stain on the mattress. I smelled the bed and could not detect urine odor at all, and I am super sensitive to the smell of cat urine. This mattress pad saved our brand new mattress, even with the onslaught of 8 days of all the urine a cat could pee on it. I am very pleased with this pad and would definitely recommend it!

My wife went into labor a year and a half ago and that labor went very quickly....so quickly that she ended up giving birth on our bed in the presence of EMTs. We then went to the hospital where I stayed overnight with my wife and new baby girl. The next day, once things had clamed down, I went home to clean up before they came home. For those who have witnessed or gone through child birth, you know what a mess I arrived to. For those who haven't, suffice to say there are many different types of fluids and a lot of them. Let's just say I was fully expecting to be purchasing a new mattress. To my amazement, once I'd bagged our sheets and this mattress pad, our mattress was perfectly fine. I bought another one immediately and will continue to use this brand as long as it exists. I challenge anyone to put it through a more rigorous test and I'm positive it can stand up to some sweat or your child's pee in the middle of the night. I could have posted a pic but it's better for everyone if I don't.

It works. I got this because I was fostering a litter of puppies who kept urinating on the bed (I know, I shouldn't have brought them on.. But honestly you should've seen how they begged to cuddle on the bed). I wanted to protect my mattress. This was easy to put on and has deep pockets that easily fit over a King bed with a pillow top mattress.In the photos attached, I spilled a large cup of water on my bed (accidentally!). It was soaked up by this mattress protector and my mattress was TOTALLY dry. Not even slightly moist. I also felt the bottom of the mattress pad (the side that lays against the mattress itself) and it was dry as well. This material is well made in that it absorbs on top, but protects on bottom to ensure moisture does not leak through. It's impressive, really.

As a U.S. wounded warrior with a spinal cord injury, I suffer from incontinence. Despite wearing Depend briefs, there's sometimes "excess" leakage, which has previously done considerable damage to my mattress. I've used numerous other mattress pads, and they bunch up and get pushed out from under me in my sleep. However, my number one complaint was the breathability aspect (or lack thereof), which routinely made me wake up drenched in sweat and subsequently despise my incontinence even more!After searching around, I came upon this product and I've been using it for a couple weeks now. It has endured numerous "incidents" and never once has anything leaked through to the mattress. But its breathability is outstanding. It feels SO much better. Just this one product alone has changed my feelings about my incontinence. It was worth every single penny, and then some!Just a quick side note: I was concerned about ordering this in a queen size because I have a queen size pillow top mattress PLUS a four inch memory foam topper, so I have to use king size sheets in order for the fitted sheet to fit right. But I took the plunge and ordered it in a queen anyways, and it fits perfectly!

We got this in anticipation of co-sleeping with our first baby. My husband (smart man) put it on a week before my due date just in case my water broke. Little did we know that I would have a precipitous labor (very fast) and we wouldn't even make it to the hospital. We delivered the baby with just the two of us and in the bed with this mattress topper. Birth is a very messy process. This saved our very expensive thermarest mattress! It is totally worth the money! Great product!

Arrived quickly and although the box was pretty banged up, it remained unscathed inside. Took about 15m to assemble without tools. Fit and finish were good. No obvious defects and material was done right. Looks great assembled and the price is fantastic.Two complaints: 1. The slats of the platform are lower than the frame so when a mattress is sitting on it there is a slight height difference which makes the mattress lift up at both ends. Just seems like the mattress should be sitting inside the frame and it doesn't. 2. It will move around a bit. The frame itself is innovative, but it will move quite a bit around with people and bed on it. So not sure if that will cause problems later or not, but I with it didn't rock as much as it does.

First: Kudos to the design team! This was an IMPRESSIVE idea in packaging. The entire contents of the bed fit inside of the headboard! Everything was extremely well packed and very easy to assemble. I did the bed frame and mattress in <2hrs - start to finish. Very low VOC - aired out the room overnight with almost no detection of any odor (includes mattress and bed frame). I did use a cordless drill not the Allen tool supplied.I'll give this a 5☆ after I see how durable it is. But as for appearance, packaging and initial setup, it's a 5.April 20, 2017 : We had a guest for 2 weeks, they want to buy this exact setup. They love it. It's great for a guest room.

I love the look of platform beds with a headboard but don't always love their prices! The only budget-friendly options were bare bones metal frames -- and then I found this little beauty. The positive reviews and $200 price tag sold me on this bed. And honestly, I'm not disappointed.The entire bed arrives in one package. I found it a little difficult to move because of the weight(I ordered a queen) but once you get all of the pieces out of the headboard (where they're conveniently stored), it was easy-peasy. In total, it took me about 30 minutes to put it all together by myself.The result was a lovely platform bed in a perfectly neutral taupe. The fabric is linen-y looking and the tufting adds an added touch of elegance. Once assembled, the finished product looks far from an affordable $200 and, for the most part, the bed feels well made. I do question the sturdiness off the wooden slats. They seem quite soft to support a queen mattress but they arrived intact and free of any splintering. Only time will tell how well they hold up.But, really, the true star of this bed is the headboard. And I did not want to cover it up with an overly large mattress. So, I opted to order the Sleep Master Ultima Comfort Memory Foam 6 Inch Mattress, Queen. With the bedspread and pillows, it comes out to the perfect height -- the headboard is highlighted rather than hidden by bedding. Over the last week, the mattress has proven to be a good complement to the bed frame and, so far, I do not feel the wooden slats through the six-inch mattress. So, if you love the look of the headboard, keep in mind that it sits low -- a 12-inch mattress with bedding will leave just the top of the headboard peeking out.All in all, I'm happy with this purchase. This platform bed looks beautiful, gives my room a polished look, and was relatively easy to put together by myself. If you're on the fence about ordering this, I'd say go for it if you have a six or eight-inch mattress -- a thinner mattress will make all the difference in how well the bed looks and will cause less wear and tear on the thin wooden slats.

i was very proud of myself for assembling this on my own since building furniture is not my forte. rest assured you can do it. it comes nicely wrapped and organized. this is a quality, sharp looking item. the reason i gave it 4 stars is the color. it appears to be more of cream in the photos but it's actually a darker beige in person. i would def buy this if it were cream or more of a pleasant-colored/light beige. i'm not super happy with the color but other than that, it's great.

Finally got this after a week of issues with delivery and I honestly was over it by Monday but thanks to the awesome Amazon Prime team I gave it another shot. It's a very heavy package and thank God UPS finally figured out my address which is on the third floor in a walk up because there would be no way I could carry this solo. I honestly thought it was going to be larger (king size) and the headboard would be higher but no big deal I love platform beds and after moving to Colorado from LA while my husband is overseas I knew I didn't want to deal with an Ikea project or the random huge meh looking furniture they have at stores here. I love that everything was included in the headboard it totally made it easier for me to put this together and it only took me about 25 mins not including the 15 mins figuring out how to drag the heavy box into our new Apt. Overall it's decent for the price and I love the Velcro on the slats. It's a little small for my Euro memory foam king mattress but it works. So the bedframe is a winner but delivery so far in Colorado Springs was a fail.

This bed is very sturdy and stylish, I absolutely love it. I will say the headboard is lower than you expect. I have two complaints: 1) despite being double boxed, the lining of the back of the headboard arrived with a small puncture in it. 2) when I reached into the box to pull out the pieces, I was cut by a protruding upholstery staple. My husband was able to hammer it down to make sure it didn't ever catch a foot or a cat, but it did cut my bad enough to bring a little blood.

I have a really firm memory foam mattress from Ikea, and while it gave me the back support I needed I was often waking up with an arm asleep or hip pain because it was too firm. I've had this for a few weeks now.I expected this to be softer than my mattress but a bit firmer than it is, so it's taken some getting used to because it's so soft. I don't have the hip and arm problems anymore, and my lower back feels okay, but I'm still trying to figure out the best pillow to go with it for my neck.

It's difficult to give a review at this stage of using this item as not much time has passed. What I can state is that it appears to be of the same quality as the first one purchased when the bed was new. It does look identical, but is not the same brand. I do not find it hot or crinkly as others have stated, and we do not have air conditioning! If it lasts as long as the first mattress protector (about 7 years), I will be very happy. Also, this one was $10.00 less expensive than the first, so that is a plus. I would recommend giving this product a try.

I tried sleeping on this without washing it first. Bad idea. Omg I was sweating buckets. I then washed it and it's a bit better. Still not as breathable as my mattress without it.. But it's not a torturous thing as it had been. But that's not why I've detracted a star. My sheets will not stay put with this thing on! I thought it might be the new mattress that we bought.. But no.. I pulled the cover off to wash it and didn't put it back on for a few days and my sheets were fine. As soon as I put the cover back, everything was sliding everywhere again. Oh well. It does what it's meant to do, that's what I need. I can deal with the sheet problem.

This was very easy to put on my daughter's bed, and it fit perfectly! It's very soft and not crinkly, and with a regular sheet on top of it you forget it's even there. I have not tested the effectiveness when it comes to the waterproof feature, which is why I could only give it a 4/5 star, but I will update my review when I have.

It works well and has held up to washing well. I was a little disappointed at first because this is a very thin, flat protector (not fluffy or padded like most) but I have come to like it more because it lays flatter under sheets and is easier to wash. If your bed already has a pillow top or other fluffy surface this may work better than one of the fluffy ones. The size is plenty big for my mattress and fits well to cover the entire top of the mattress with a little overlap on the edges. Make sure to dry it on low for best results and not to damage the waterproof material inside.

Bought this as a mattress protector for a new foam mattress. The cover feels a bit like terry cloth, except very thin.It is deep enough to fit over a twelve inch mattress with room to spare. There is no "vinyl" smell at all. Would buy again.

The twin Zinus Upholstered Button Tufted Platform Bed looks nice. It appears to be of average quality and durability. I would not let anyone who weighs over 225 pounds to sleep on it. Customer service is the worst. The company is non-responsive. I had an issue with the assembly instructions, and no-one responded to my emails or phone calls. FYI - some of the bolts are imbedded in the frame so don't go looking for them in the packaging as I did.

This is a really well made bed frame that looks expensive! Couple of issues I have with it...one is it is very tight on my mattress. It could be an inch or two bigger so that when I put on the sheets I have a little room! My other issue with it is that the headboard is very short so with a thick mattressyou barely even see the headboard.

The packaging was adequate allowing frame to arrive in untainted condition. The supplied instructions were easy to follow allowing for easy assembly. The frame looks amazing after assembly. However, I do think that the old saying "you get what you pay for" applys here. The overall construction of the bed feels cheap. If you are looking for a frame for an average size single person this frame will do. If you are a heavier person or a couple I would look elsewhere as this frame will likely buckle under the added weight or adult activity. I bought this for my teen daughter who loves the look. I am sure it will last her a few years. I see this as a temporary solution as cheap wood is used and guarantees eventual failure.

The bed is very nice. I love the look and it was simple construction. My issue is with quality control. I had to use a hammer to beat the metal clasp on the side rail in place. It was severely bent, despite being packaged very well. (It wouldn't hook on properly being bent) I also had to tape several of the wooden slates, because they were damaged and had loose chipped wood on them and I didn't want to damage my new memory fo mattress. I tried to call customer service, but a voicemail came on. I left a message with my info, but no one called me back. So overall , the bed is very nice and priced well. It looks just like the image. My complaint is with quality control and customer service.

We ordered this Zinus Upholstered Button Tufted Platform Bed from Amazon. While we love the design and the look and feel of it, we had assembly issues.The instructions showed a parts list that included spare parts. Not only were ther no spare parts, the headboard had no fastening hardware and the holes for the missing screws were never cut to show where they go.I had to make several trips to the home center hardware department to get missing screws which ended up being different types and head sizes.In all I had to buy 8 screws to complete the assembly. While the platform is certainly well designed, quality control is lacking. I would be careful about ordering from this company again.

I was really hoping that nothing would go wrong with this bed frame, but upon opening the package, I found a hole in the back of the headboard! Overall, it was pretty easy to put together, although I had to ask a friend to help me with one of the side pieces because the holes would not align up! It looks great and I love it but knowing that I have a hole in the back does not settle too well with me. I didn't send it back because that would be a hassle and it was pretty heavy for me to haul up 5 floors.

Purchased this as I recently bought a new memory foam mattress. I bought this because of the high ratings and because it was advertised as a quiet mattress protector. It definitely does have a waterproof layer which makes significant nose while moving around. It's not as loud as other matteress protectors, just disappointing.

I have a 16 year old Chihuahua who has started to have trouble holding his bladder, and I purchased this to protect my carpet. It seemed to work well at first, but it does not appear to be holding up to repeated washings. When I lifted it up tonight, the carpet was damp, and upon closer inspection, I saw that the bottom layer appeared to have worn through in spots. It has probably been washed about 15-20 times since I purchased it, and it definitely does not appear to keep the carpet underneath as dry as it did when I first started using it. It's disappointing because I really liked the large size of these sheet, as it covers nearly my entire living room carpet.

I swear I selected a California king but somehow got a queen. It's terry cloth, which I don't like, but it doesn't make the bed too hot or anything. Although I ordered the wrong size, we used it anyway because we have pets. It does the job, but I didn't do enough research.

It's a nice protector for the price,

Good pad for the price but it will split after a few washings on the underside. No big deal really because the top holds up well.

Soft enough and didn't make a crinkle noise, but slept very hot; was not breathable as advertised.

Bought this with the recommended king sized mattress by the same company. The frame itself seems pretty durable & looks nice. It is, however, very short. If you make your bed & stack pillows against the headboard it virtually disappears! Not exactly the look I was going for. But for the price I guess we're keeping it

I wish I could give this bed frame a better rating than 2 stars. While it looks beautiful and is easy to assemble, our king bed frame is already squeaking. My husband and I have only been sleeping on this for 2.5 months. Now I only weigh 115 lbs so the fact that the bed squeaks when I readjust or roll over at night is pretty disappointing

The headboard is beautiful, the frame is cheap. The middle support leg of the bed collapsed. To repair, we had to remove the mattress and wooden slats each time to get to it. Eventually the entire side of the bed weakened and collapsed. We dismantled the bed, put everything out to trash except the headboard. We purchased a separate metal frame from this same company and it is very sturdy and has held up perfectly. This bed is only ideal I guess if you ever so gently get into bed, and never move until you get back out. Besides the construction, I found the fabric very easy to clean.

This frame worked as expected for about 1 year, but now year later the frames squeaks with every move. Every time I readjust the frame squeaks loudly, very odd. As for looks and simplicity I like this frame.

I have both this bed and the dark grey (similar style, not button tufted). I love the grey, but this one is far inferior quality. The color is so lovely and it looks great, but the supports beneath the bed don't seem as stable and they didn't line up as well when I put it together. Two of the supports that are supposed to hover above the floor actually touch the floor all of the time- not just when someone is laying on it. Good thing this bed is being used by a 40 pound 4 year old and her 45 pound dog....

The center support bar keeps twisting and shifting over. I'm afraid that I'm going to have a crashed bed frame. We installed exactly as instructed and the shift is more and more pronounced. I placed a box on the floor next to the center support to show how far off alignment this is. Any suggestions?

I purchased a tuft & needle mattress and of course I needed a new mattress protector. I decided to go with this one, ignoring some reviews of how hot this protector got. The first night with this protector, my boyfriend woke up 3 times dripping sweat. I didnt experience this. Yet today I was laying on it for a few hours (being lazy on my new mattress lol) and I felt like a hot sensation on my butt and back. I decided to remove the protector to see what was causing this. Once I removed it, the problem went away. I wish it worked for me like it did to others. I live in Miami, where it's always hot and humid so I don't want to feel it while I'm laying on my bed!!! Lol will be returning.

Not what you think....this is not a substantial cover - flimsy and thin. Barely covers the mattress (full) that I have which is a standard full size for my three year old (crib converts to full). Still will have to look for a bed chuck to ensure the accidents don't seep through. I only kept this because i had nothing for when the bed arrived. A more think cover and fuller corner piece/fabric to ensure its secured to the mattress would have been nice. Can't believe all these reviews... very odd.

I used this mattress protector for nearly two weeks. Per the instructions here and on the packaging, I started by washing and drying protector. Before the end of the two week period, I washed it per the instructions 3 separate times.During my two week test, I woke up numerous times on several nights with either by back or stomach covered in sweat. While the waterproofing appears to be effective, the mattress protector is not "cool" -- it is quite warm and substantially disrupted my sleep. After replacing it with a semi-waterproof cotton cover from Target, I have not had any issues with getting too hot.To reiterate (since I suspect SafeRest will automatically reply telling me to do so), I washed the cover several times per the instructions. Washing it does not solve the issue with it holding too much body heat.

It was too hot. I keep my apartment relatively cool but I'd wake up in the middle of the night and it would feel like I was sleeping on a heating pad. The front of my body would be cold and my back would be hot and sweaty. I tried it for a few weeks before I got frustrated when I couldn't fall asleep and took it off. I could immediately tell a difference in the temperature. I sleep on a foam mattress so it might be fine on a spring mattress.Pros: it fit my mattress perfectly and did not make any crinkling noise when I was moving around. Other than the temperature problem I couldn't even tell it was there.

I'm not sure why this mattress protector gets such high reviews... it makes a lot of noise under the sheets and gives the bed a plastic feel to it. When laying down and turning over, it makes crinkle noises, and pretty loud too! There are many other mattress protectors out there that purposefully eliminate this noise without sacrificing protection. I have no doubt that this protector will protect your mattress... but you shouldn't have to sacrifice a nice soft feel and a no cheap-sounding noise to get that protection!

I ordered a queen for my obviously queen bed and was surprised to see that it did not fit. It was too big. I have not slept on it yet but already a failed product for me. There's better products out there so I'll be returning this one.

The frame is really low quality. It does not fit correctly, as a result the middle support keeps falling over and the middle of the bed sinks in. This is bad for sleeping. Would not buy again, would not recommend.

The frame is 4 inches too short for the regular length full size mattress. It is an inch too narrow. The directions have few words and ridiculous pictures. The only reason I was able to put it together is because I used a hammer to fix the bent pieces and am good at solving puzzles. It is extremely heavy and now I have to take the thing apart, find a box to fit it in and try to jam the pieces back into the back of the headboard so I can return it. The color is drab and well, don't make the mistake of buying this product.

Horrible platform bed. After having it for about 4 months the center leg along the left side is bent in at an angle that makes the bed creak and unstable. We have taken the mattress off numerous times and tightened the screws but it does not help and becomes loose again. Do not buy.

UPDATE: After about 6 months - everything went to hell.... This would only be a problem with a King size because of the center beam. I have seen there reviews saying that it twists and moves and eventually a few months into using my new bed - the same thing started happening. The center beam constantly comes out of alignment and so I have a "sink hole" in the center of my bed. Once it happened in the middle of the night and freaked everyone out. I even tried to fix it myself by attaching a flat thing to the part that hits the floor, and even that didn't help...*********As a note the total combined weight put on this bed nightly is about 350lbs... so I'm sorry - its not a weight problem :)So if you are looking for a king size - look somewhere else.... If you want a smaller size - this bed is great!!--------------------------ORIGINAL REVIEW:I just received the bed and was surprised how easy it was to put together. Simple instructions - easy to follow. All the tools are included.Being a small female - it took me about 30-45 minutes to put it together by myself!!First - yes the quality is good, but not the best, but again it feels and looks like it should cost more than the listed price!! So when I see people complaining that it's "cheap" - I just think that if they want super high quality - spend more money on a better bed!!! This is one great and definitely better than IKEA quality. Plus free delivery! You can't beat that.I'd recommend anyone to buy with Prime or at least from Amazon - as I originally purchased it from a 3rd party seller and it took forever to ship and then got delayed again with FedEx. I ended up re-ordering with Prime and Amazon was nice enough to expedite my shipping for free, because of the sucky experience with the other seller.Anyway - along with the bed I also bought the Arctic Cool 10-inch memory foam mattress on Amazon too ( it's one of the higher rated and not so expensive) and these 2 for together perfectly!!In my research if the 2 products I wasn't able to find any photos of how high the 10-inch mattress would look on this bed. So I took my own as I was putting it all together!!I hope the photos help someone else decide on the night and thickness of the mattress and the bed.

Save your money. This bed is poor quality junk. It all comes in a neat little pouch behind the headboard which is ingenious, but the truth comes out as you assemble it. The fabric is poor quality, the padding is extremely thin so that you can feel the wood underneath, the stitching in the tufted headboard was snagged with loose thread, and the main complaint is that a fullsize mattress Does Not Fit. I purchased the zinus 12 inch green tea mattress to compliment the bed and it literally hangs over the footboard, Totally unacceptable for a bed and mattress from the same manufacturer. I attempted to place another brand of full size mattress on the bed and it too did not fit lengthwise. don't waste your money on this crap. buy something of quality from a name brand manufacturer. I attempted to contact the seller and try to "fix' their bed by getting replacement side pieces thinking maybe mine were short for some reason. Basically they wanted me to jump through hoops and take pictures and try to prove the 'so called defects' . my advice, avoid this bed and avoid this manufacturer

UPDATE: it's been over a year now and even after receiving a completely new bed it sucks!! To quote another reviewer "center beam constantly comes out of alignment and so I have a "sink hole" in the center of my bed. Once it happened in the middle of the night and freaked everyone out. I even tried to fix it myself by attaching a flat thing to the part that hits the floor, and even that didn't help...UPDATE: After about 6 months - everything went to hell.... This would only be a problem with a King size because of the center beam. I have seen there reviews saying that it twists and moves and eventually a few months into using my new bed - the same thing started happening. The center beam constantly comes out of alignment and so I have a "sink hole" in the center of my bed." It is very uncomfortable and can be alarming. Happens during sex or just while watching tv. Also the bean has scratchef up our hardwood floors. Think twice abour this bed,especially if you have hardwood floor and share a bed. We are now looking to get a new bed.Previous: As many other's have commented the bed arrives compactly packaged and assembled looks as pictured. I'm a petite woman and assembled it by myself without much much trouble - I was watching tv also so I can't remember how long it took but not too long. I have an existing queen foam mattress that fits in the frame properly. I would say be mindful of the total bed height versus headboard height so that you that your expectations are met. This bed satisfied a middle ground between taller and platform for us. HOWEVER, since purchasing the at the end of October we have been having issues with the middle legs "kicking out", as some one else commented, or bending to one side causing the bed to sag in the middle. I believe that because the slats provided with this bed are weak, compared to say Ikea (something at a similar price point), the middle bar is absolutely needed to support two adults. I have contacted customer service and will update with any outcome.

Didnt fit tight to bed had s tendenciy to clump

It's 5am and have been up for the past 2 hours cleaning my new mattress and sheets. I thought this protector was 100% waterproof but its not. My mattress is damp and smells slightly like urine from a rare occurance my son had an accident. This brought so much disappointment when I trusted that this protector would actually prevent any leak from reaching my mattress. I also made sure to wash this cover as instructed. I should have read the poor reviews but only based my purchase on the average overall rating. A one time odd occurrence is enough to ruin a lot.

Constant leaking with my toddler. Useless. It works about as well as a towel. In the garbage it goes after one too many leaks. I am writing this as I've got a blow dryer running on my $3,000 mattress for a spilled bottle that my toddler brought into the bedroom.

Washed once and it fell apart in the washer. Left white specks all over my mattress. I would recommend buying a higher quality mattress cover.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME, this is just a mattress topper!! It is not a full zipper cover that protects the mattress at all from bed bugs. I am very disappointed, it is not what i thought it was at all.

After using the product for 2.5 years, it has started to leak. We wash and dry if according to package directions and now my son's mattress is ruined
