### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome storage for apartment living!
*by E***E on August 8, 2017*

*disclaimer* I live in an apartment, if you do too, you've found the right review!Lemme start by saying, my S.O. and I had our mattress on the floor for the first 3 weeks of moving in to our new place. This meant our brand new sheets, comforter, and a few throw pillows, often frequented the floor; they all picked up dust, dirt, cat hair, etc., the usual day to day messes of life. Stepped on, slipped on, you name it, it probably happened. If you're in this boat, you know, it can be a little frustrating.I told myself I'd build a box spring, buy a nice bedframe with a headboard, do this right... That was 2.5 weeks after telling myself it would be worth it, looking in local shops for pre built box springs and seeing them for no less than $100, and almost $200 after delivery + taxes.Well, since I'm here I guess you can imagine how that went. With work, trying to make the apartment feel like home, constantly cleaning and trying to maintain a social life, and without really your own front yard to do the whole building thing, the idea just became a faint whisper. It was around this time I also noticed the closets were a bit cluttered too, but I just told myself, "this was apartment living"One night, I decided to come to amazon to see if they sell box springs. To my absolute distrust and hesitation, I clicked through some reviews of this platform bedframe. It seemed pretty promising, but some reviews had a couple issues with broken parts and said it felt uncomfortable. I decided to roll the Amazon dice and purchase the platform bedframe.3 days rolled by and it came, shipped to my apartment and dropped off with a loud "thud" on the front door. The package was heavy and I guess the delivery guy was frustrated from my place being such a frequent stop for him with heavy packages. "Great..." I said, hoping no damage had occurred. The box was pretty beat up too.I opened it, assembled it (took about 5 minutes of finger tightening wing nuts btw) and plopped the mattress up on it. Thankfully it seemed to survive it's rough journey from the warehouse to my place, I noticed two things immediately:1.) This was the answer to making the bedroom feel more like a home2.) There is a ridiculous amount of storage underneath the bed that simply isn't allowed for in closets.I stuffed as many rarely-used items under the bed as I possibly could, which allowed me to straighten up the closets. I even made room to keep the box to the frame in there, just in case the S.O. didn't like it and we had to send it back.She came home and also instantly appreciated the look and feel of the bedroom. Needless to say, we did some investigation to see just how loud and sturdy the bedframe is. It's silent, and unmoving! ;)I threw the box out after 2 nights of sleeping on the bed, confident in my purchase and ready to guide other potential customers with a humongous review on why they should also take the plunge and try it. It seriously is the perfect bedframe for an apartment. You'll be glad you tried it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So easy to put together
*by R***4 on May 5, 2025*

This is the third bedframe from this company that I've used over the past 10 years. The one that I bought several years ago still works great and is strong and sturdy.I love how easy these are to put together and disassemble if needed. It's literally one piece to screw and tighten on two spots on the frame. The rest of the frame easily folds up. The whole time to set this up was less than five minutes! It's that quick to take it apart too.This frame is sturdy and I love the height, which provides convenient storage underneath without having the mattress be too high up.Overall this is a very fair price for this bedframe and you won't regret it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Affordable and easy to install.
*by K***M on May 21, 2025*

Before this frame, I had a lift-up storage bed frame. Within a year, it began to make squeaky noises every time I moved on the bed. That bed frame cost around $300. In contrast, this new frame is easy to install and provides storage without any noise. I was also able to cover the bottom part with a bed skirt. It saved me both money and time!
