KD FramesFold Platform Bed - Full Bed Frame - Unfinished Wood Bed Frame - Full Size Folding Bed - Natural, Minimalist Bed - Easy Assembly, No Box Spring Needed - Solid Wood Full Folding Bed

This bed frame is super impressive! The design is simple, yet extremely well thought out and functional. It folds up perfectly to be stored away and is very sturdy and functions better than a lot of bed frames that don’t do anything cool like fold in half.I love the Nordic style unfinished wood and overall minimalist aesthetic of this bed frame, I purchased it for my guest room and have already recommended it to so many friends and family.The queen tri-fold mattress I purchased for this bed fits perfectly on the bed frame. When not in use, I can stowaway the mattress and bed frame in the guest room and have more space for other activities.I did a lot of research on guest bed solutions, and I’m extremely happy with my purchase.

After countless hours on Wayfair and big box furniture retailers looking at bedframes, I finally found this KD Frame. I was so sick of every frame being crappy, flimsy slats with a fancy looking trim/headboard for $500+. There is none of that nonsense here. This is a quality bedframe constructed from real hardwood, and it's USA made. It is sturdy and holds a LOT of weight. It even folds in half for easy storage, and is fairly lightweight compared to other frames I've had in the past. I am thinking of getting a 2nd one for my spare room, to use as a guest bed when family or friends visit, since it folds up neatly. At $200~ this is a steal. There are no bells or whistles here, but if you like understated and functional then this is the bedframe for you. NOTE: Assembly should really be a two-person job, and I could see it being challenging for an older person since there are lot of pieces. The paper instructions are not great; I finally figured it out after watching the assembly video in the Amazon photos here (although that video is for the twin size; I had to refer back to the paper instructions to make sure I wasn't missing steps for the Queen size. The assembly for twin vs queen had minor differences). Allocate an afternoon and some light swearing to piece this together, but the value is there once you're done. It is fairly low to the ground, so keep that in mind if height is important to you.

Purchased the queen sized version: This was easy to put together-- followed the instructions and everything worked beautifully. I love that the next time we move, I'll be able to fold it up, or take it apart into two pieces and fit it in the car-- it won't require a van or truck. Eventually, I hope to put a thick futon on it, but right now, we just have our crappy old cheap innerspring mattress-- and it's ok. This is the same mattress that, on our old, too-tall, box-spring+metal rail frame bed, was absolutely miserable to sleep on, made my back and shoulders hurt, and sagged horribly. This frame is making that awful mattress tolerable, until we can (o happy day!) replace the mattress too.Things you should know:-This bed is short. This is not everybody's cup of tea, but I'm a short person, and I love it. I never liked climbing *up* into my normal-height bed. Bonus points: because it's low, it makes the room look bigger and less crowded.-The mattress stays put. On our old box-springs, the mattress would sort of creep and slide about, pillows would fall down into the headboard area, etc. Even without a headboard at all, this bed does not have that problem. We park it right up next to the wall, and we haven't lost any pillows yet.-No creaking, squeaking, or other noise. We are married, and we have young kids. This feature is important to us.-You can't actually see much of the bed, once it's all put together with mattress and all, but the wood frame is beautiful. I just like the look of it.-The Queen frame is exactly as wide and as long as a standard Queen sized mattress. There is no mattress overhang, and no frame sticking out. THIS IS FANTASTIC. We used to have a nice sleek modern-looking Ikea platform bed of about the same height. Malm, I think. The mattress was sort of inset into the frame. It was so hard to change the sheets-- you had to heave the mattress up out of its well to do the corners and tuck in blankets. And, worst of all, we were constantly, painfully, whacking our shins on its sharp modern edges. Never again. This frame is perfect. Our shins remain in good condition: no bruises.This is exactly the bed frame I've been wanting for the last ten years. I only regret that it took so long to find it.

Two tools you definitely need to buy beforehand to assemble this:1. Hammer or rubber mallet2. Power drillI'm guessing the demo had all holes pre-drilled perfectly or the demo guy had super strength, but we don't have that luxury. So, you'll really need those two tools above to assemble everything tightly.Other than that, the assembly went smoothly. All the holes aligned, and the steps were clear. The demo video was way more helpful than the manual, so give it a watch. If the holes don't quite line up or panels won't push in, go back to the previous step and ensure everything's hammered in tightly. That usually fixes the issue.I'm a 5’3 girl, around 100lbs, and I managed to assemble it by myself in about 2 hours, using a power drill and a hammer (no help from my BF, ugh). The tricky parts were lifting the panels to get everything nailed down and getting all the holes to line up. It felt like a game of whack-a-mole: as soon as I lined up one side, the other side popped out. Having a second person would've made it so much quicker, probably cutting the time down to 1/3.All in all, I did it, although a little out of breath by the end. The bed frame is very sturdy, and it folds up nicely for easy storage or moving which I love! Once you finish the assembly, it functions as effortlessly as those foldable metal frames but looks 100x cuter. The low platform gives it a Japanese tatami vibe, adding a cozy touch to my bedroom.Just a tip: Lay down a big plastic cover on the floor before you start. There'll be a good amount of wood dust as you hammer and drill. I used one from a new mattress, and it saved me a cleanup.
