Lit plateforme 13 po Hawkes

a waste of money. i would like to preface this review by stating that i am a woodworker by profession. why then wouldn't i build my own bed, you may be wondering? after assembling this thing, i'm asking myself the same. it would have been time and energy better spent. so disappointed in the quality of this bed. the weight-bearing rails are all fingerjointed instead of solid pieces, which means the part of the bed meant to be the strongest is little more than a glue-up job. the holes for the fastening bolts are chipped out and poorly routed. the wooden dowels are too small to stay snug in the holes that are provided for them, which means they serve practically no structural function. i wish i could attach more photos to emphasize how poorly made this thing is. several pieces came split or dinged up out of the box, and although assembly was relatively quick and easy, there were no pilot holes drilled into the rails to guide the wood screws needed to finish securing the slats. thus, because i did not have a power driver on hand, the process of securing the slats took an inordinately long time. in an ideal world, i'd just send this item back-- but as an urbanite with no car in a major city, there's no practical way for me to get this thing back in its box and to a fedex location. it took all of my strength just to schlep the box up the stairs to my second floor apartment-- it was inordinately heavy because the rails, head and footboard AND slats were all packed together. i'm sure this was a cheaper and more efficient way to ship, but it makes the prospect of returning without assistance all but impossible. i'm sure it will last me for a little while, but this is not a long-term piece of furniture. maybe that was unreasonable to expect, given the price, but i'm personally so tired of living in a world where things are made poorly.

Got this for a toddler and it works just fine. I liked the low profile and shape of the legs. Time will tell if it can withstand a kid jumping on the bed.

Gorgeous bed frame . Very easy to assemble

Love the look but it’s pretty creaky.
