With its low profile and warm wood grains, this platform bed frame anchors your space in relaxed, mid-century-inspired style. It’s built from solid bamboo, with gently curved corners that soften the sleek silhouette. A slightly reclined headboard invites Sunday morning-style lounging.
The finish is beautiful and matches the teak/teak veneer of the rest of our mid-century furniture. I like the styling, and the workmanship seems quite good, with one exception, which I'll discuss last. If you are curious about the thin arms that support the head board, the head board does have a bit of flex or spring to it when you lean back against it.
The queen sized frame is about 1.5-2" longer than our Sealy queen mattress, so that there is a gap either at the foot board or at the head board depending on how you position the mattress. The width seems about right.
The two center support legs each have a threaded metal insert in the top end, with which each is bolted onto the center support rail. Those inserts pulled out of the legs with minimal force, and -- tellingly -- removing very little wood when they did. The holes drilled in the ends of those legs are barely smaller than the outer diameter of the threads that hold the inserts into the leg. Those holes should have been drilled much smaller. I reattached the inserts by using liquid epoxy to fill the holes, then screwing the inserts in (with a disc of tape across the bottom ends to keep epoxy from filling the hole in the insert)..
