Love the Black Bed...
I received the bed in 3 seperate boxes. The boxes were long but were not heavy at all. The bed pieces were wrapped well and had packaging protection around them inside the box. The instruction were attached to the wooden slates. Easy to read.
My recommendations:
When attaching the two feet on the middle bar, to make sure that the end of the bar (long part) are facing upwards before attaching the feet. Use pliers (not provided) and wrench (provided) to secure the screw and bolt.
Before inserting the wooden slates and plastic ware on the bed, attach all the plastic ware on each wooden slate prior to attaching to bed as the instructions state. The slates should be bowing like a hump. Then place each attached wooden slate on the the holes located on the metal bars. Use a mallet (not provided) and self pressure, lean on the mallet to push in the plastic ware in to the holes. U will hear a snap sound when the is done correctly. This part of assembly is a little difficult if u dont hv much strength to push the plastic ware into the holes. If push comes to shove and u not able to push them in or the slates breaks, Im sure u can just purchase a semi thick plywood and place it on the metal edges of the side boards for stability. U will hv to measure that inner section and purchase the plywood at a hardware store or something.
The Queen bed is intended for a queen size mattress with a pillow top or without. I can not see a box spring on it, because it make the mattress way higher than the foot board. As I stated before I am 5'2 and the height of the bed with mattress is perfect for me. Someone that is close to 6 feet or taller may not like the height of the bed.
I am not sure how long the slates or plastic ware will last but I am sure if those pieces need to be replace Great Offer Stock customer service would help with that for a small price.
The material is not genuine leather but it does appear to be like leather. It looks that greattttttt. It is not shinny or thin like some people have said on reviews. The back of the headboard does not have the leather like material so it will have to be against a wall or something. The Queen mattress I have fits perfectly and there is not much of a gap around the mattress and bed frame but there is enough to where you could tuck in sheets.
This is my 1st purchase ever on Great Offer Stock and I am a satisfied customer. I absolutely love the Black Euro Bed. I slepted in it once already and I had no problems at all. I highly recommend the purchase for the low price. Some other stores are charging more than I paid for it on Great Offer Stock. Take the chance to update ur bedroom for a reasonable price. Im sure you deserve it just like I did. I hope that this review helps you as other reviews helped me to feel confident in my decision to purchase on Great Offer Stock. Unfortunately, I cant upload the photo I took on my cell to this review. Maybe I can attach it later.
