Difficult to assemble NeethuThis is by far the worst product I’ve ever bought from ikea. The assembly process was extremely frustrating. The pri drilled holes and didn’t align properly with the screws, making it almost impossible to put parts together . It took a lot of time and energy,and I am still not satisfied with the final result. I usually like IKEA products, but this one was huge disappointment. Definitely not worth the effort1
Pretty SimpleFraserThis one was pretty simple / quick to assemble compared to the Brimnes with drawers. The biggest trick is the braces to hold the bed square - you really have to use force to get the screws to grip5
Lonset slatted bed frameLoriLonset slatted bed frame is very sturdy, but challenging to assemble. First bed base took two adults over an hour, second took 45 minutes. Would recommend the Luroy bed base as no assembling required. Overall very nice bed.5

Fantastic and beautiful bed frame!!!ValuedIts quite high and is perfect to match bedside table kullen and malm!! Its like living in an ikea showroom! Requires 2 people to speed things up during assembly but will do perfectly fine with 1 person! I have not encountered any of the other buyers problems and is perfectly sturdy!! Might need to use tutorial online if needed but is okay through manual!! 5 stars!!!5

Malm bed CaitrinI constructed the malm bed as per the instruction but ist squeaks with the smallest amount of pressure on it and i always have to tightened it. The slats also fell of consistently until we found a solution online 2

Disappointing Bed Frame – Slats Keep Falling Through!OliviaI usually love Ikea’s designs, but the Malm bed frame has been a huge letdown. The main issue is the slats—they’re way too small and just don’t stay in place. No matter how carefully I set them up, they keep slipping through the grooves, which makes the bed feel unstable and uncomfortable. I’ve had to constantly adjust and reposition them, and it’s honestly become a nuisance. This has also caused the metal under neath to bend and get misshapen
It’s frustrating because the frame itself looks sleek and fits perfectly with my room, but this slat issue is such a deal-breaker. I expected better from Ikea. At this point, I’m considering buying an entirely new frame because it’s just not working out. Would not recommend unless you're prepared to deal with constant slat issues and like to fall through your bed regularly 1

Reliable and valuable for moneyMenolEasy to assemble and now used it for more than three months. Good for money and comfortable enough5
Comfortable MarilynThe bed wasn't to hard to assemble although a couple of the steps were a little hard to understand
Overall the bed is very comfortable 5
Terrible - screws did not fit the holesSheritaI hate to put a zero star review however this assembly was the worst I had experienced. The screws did not fit the holes, then with the slightest of hammering, the bed frame split rendering it unbuildable and unuseable. Wasted $400+delivery1
