ZinusDeepak Easy Assembly Wood Slat 1.6 Inch Bunkie Board/Bed Slat Replacement, King

Probably one of the best purchases I’ve made all year with regards to quality, ease of assembly, and small touches to make it more useful. The Velcro to stop the slats from moving, the adhesive to stop the mattress from moving, the padding on the support beam, and the numbering of the pieces. I was impressed for sure.

Very happy with the purchase. I bought this one in Queen size - fit perfectly in my bed. The frame is very sturdy, easy to assemble even by one 5'3" woman. The instruction diagram would make you believe that there is an assembling sequence - there isn't. I recommend to connect/insert horizonal sides into vertical ones at all corners first and then start putting in the bolts and tightening them. I attempted following the apparent sequence and ended up having hard time to connect the last two corners. I had to remove the bolts, connect all corners and then everything went nicely and very fast. It is great that there is a middle support bar. Otherwise, I would be worried about the slats. The slats are nice and velcro strip assures no movement on the frame. However, if you are heavy, expect the slats to give in under your weight resulting in the mattress bending slightly in those areas. Slats won't break though. I am 235lbs and I have no reservations getting in the bed, out or turning or even pushing myself up from the belly sleeping position with the hands. I am, however, talking about180 lbs in the title because if there are two of you, I am not sure if the slats will hold the weight. Middle support bar will help but not sure if it will save at 360lbs combined weight. Highly recommended solution for high mattresses and to lower overall bed height. My old box spring made the bed so high that getting in bed started to resemble vault or long jumping. I was seriously considering a step stool to get into the bed. Now I sleep much better and making the bed is a breathe too. Enjoy yours!

I finally committed myself to get rid of the box springs because the bed was so tall. I had several concerns about the transition. First of all, this was packaged in a manner easy for me to get into the house and to the bedroom by myself. Instructions were easy to follow. The metal frame is easily put together. Then the slats fit nicely. I feared the size would be off, but it worked perfectly for our king size mahogany planters/rice bed. There is Velcro to secure the ribboned slats into place, aligned as they should be. All necessary tools are included. The additional benefit no more box spring noise and firmer feel to the mattress. This was a great value.

I'm so pleased with this product. It is extremely well thought through. Easy to assemble thank to the little key provided with the package and a comprehensive manual. The elements are numbered to so you know how to connect them. The frame and slats have Velcro tape so the board is sturdy. All the Styrofoam elements are wrapped in plastic so there is no mess after assembling. Fits our child's bed perfectly. I couldn't expect more.

I am so impressed with this foundation. It took me what felt like two seconds to put it together even though it seems very sturdy and well-made. Putting the metal frame together was so simple and the ribboned slats velcro onto the frame so nicely so that you don't have to worry about the wood sliding and the spacing between the slats getting messed up. The slats are about 3" apart, which is very hard to find. Everything else I could find was at least 3.5 inches apart, usually more. I have the mattress on the floor for my toddler, but love that this foundation allows for airflow so that mold doesn't grow. If we ever want to raise the mattress up in the future, we can always buy a bed from Zinus that goes with this foundation. I am very, very happy.
