yaayyLillianaI bought this bed for myself. but I know it is no longer mine. each and every day my cat let's herself into my room. not to beg for food, not to demand I clean her box. But to take my bed from me. to slowly push me off until I have to sleep on the floor. she likes this bed a lot. she approves. she appreciates how the slats don't move. I do too. 5
Love the Bed- Here’s How to Make Assembly EasySofiaI love this bed frame and wanted to share a tip to make assembly easier. The instructions can definitely be confusing, mostly because each piece of hardware is listed by an 8-digit code. To simplify, I used a bright pen to assign letters (A, B, C, etc.) to each hardware item on page 3, then wrote those letters next to the matching items throughout the instructions. This way, you don’t have to match long serial numbers every time you need a bolt. It takes a few extra minutes to set up, but it made assembly a breeze for me. I didn’t need the level, clamp, or even a drill. Hope this saves someone a headache. :) I paired the bed with: (3) HILJA curtains (two panels per pack, so six panels total). My bed is against a wall, so no curtains behind the headboard. Get (4) if you want curtains on all four sides. They're the perfect mix of privacy and breeziness! And great price for the quality of the curtains. You do not need hardware- curtains will slide right onto the top frame poles.5
Daughter loves this canopy bedHeatherOur daughter really wanted to have a canopy bed with curtains so she can have a little "fort". We needed a full size, and this was available at Ikea. As with most furniture, the bed came together quickly with minimal issues, and thanks to it being lightweight, she was able to hold up the sides during the build process. Happily, it is very sturdy and the curtains she picked out went on easily!5
Super cute bed! Instructions are wrong! LauraThe bed is super cute and has given my teen daughter’s room that extra something special. We were able to use it with our existing box spring and it looks and feels solid. Although ultimately it was easy to put together, we did get stuck on the first step which clearly indicates you are supposed to use one set of cross bars for the headboard, but they absolutely do not work. We made a leap of faith and went against the instructions, using the other set of crossbars, and everything was fine. But it was pretty frustrating to be stuck on step one for as long as it took to complete the rest of the build. Definitely worth it though! 4
Beautiful bedLisaMy 7 year old was so excited when she seen this bed in her room it’s size and looks are perfect for the price the height of the bed is a little low to the floor but other than that we were extremely pleased.5
Love the look — but it’s noisy!ScottMy daughter loves her new bed. It looks great in her room and we paired it with some tool-like curtains as was shown in-store.
A few things to note:
—it was a bit difficult to assemble and you’ll definitely need more than one person.
—the bed creaks/squeaks. This is maybe from the metal rubbing against itself? Not sure. 3
Easy Assembly, Amazing DesignZackariahSuper easy to assemble and I used the posts with curtains to create a canopy! Loves it!5
