- I absolutely love this bed!! It was easy to put together and the quality is so nice. It matches perfectly with the nightstands I bought from the same collection. I was nervous about the Rustic Walnut color not matching the picture, but it matches perfectly in person with what the picture shows!
- Love the bed! It was not hard to put together, the wood was not damaged and it was everything I expected and more. Love the color and it a good quality bed that should last me a long time. If you’re thinking about getting this bed don’t hesitate, do it.
- love the bed! as pictured, sturdy and good quality. I am a petite, 5’ tall woman and installed it alone in 90 mins. Only needed assistance when it came time to attach the side rails to the headboard and I needed assistance holding the side rails up. Shipped and arrived quickly up.

- Bed came quickly, was easy to assemble with one person... I would recommend a cordless drill to make some of it easier. Took about 1 hour to assemble. The bed is high quality for the price, has center supports and feels sturdy when laying down. I would highly recommend!
- We loved the bed, good quality material but the only issue was that instruction's said to insert six screws on brackets to center support and only two holes were pre-drilled. We had to drill pilot holes ourself, but other than that bed frame went together well and seems solid.
- The bed is absolutely beautiful and really appears to be authentic furniture Took my husband and I about 3 hours to put together but the quality is fantastic!! Watch out for the legs at foot of bed. Takes a few hits to learn they stick out a bit!Becki Rood Georgia

- I love it! It arrived 8 days earlier than expected. Very well manufactured and designed. Very easy to assemble. I did it totally by myself. Excellent Quality!!!!! Thank you!! The velcro on the slats made the last part so easy to install.
- The reviews didn't lie, great quality, solid wood and easy to install. I have adjustable bed so I only used the frame. I was a little cautious as I wasn't sure this was going to work but it did! Still solid and not wobbly at all. I love it!
- This bed frame is seriously great quality. And for such a great price!!! I am very impressed. Even the tools they send to put it together are high quality. They thought of every detail to make sure this bed frame works well and is classy. The wood is gorgeous too.

- Good quality and very easy to put together Update I’ve had this for a month now and it now squeaks when I get inout of the bed. I’ve had to tighten screws a couple of times. I wouldn’t buy this again. I guess this is why metal bed frames are so cheap.
- I love the sleek look, the headboard is at a perfect height to rest your head on comfortably. Assembling the product, was super easy and very straight forward, which is always a plus. Very good quality. I've experienced no problems with this product. I highly recommend.
- This is a really cute bed. My daughter picked it out and tried to convince her to pick something else because it was so inexpensive. It arrived and is great quality, and she put it together by herself in less than 30 minutes. I should have ordered one for my guest room!

- We love this bed. We bought one for our daughter and have now bought another one for our other daughter. It's very sturdy, looks classy, and the price is kind of a steal. Very happy. You do have to assemble but my husband said it was pretty easy to put together.
- This bed looks nice and is pretty sturdy. It is a great price for the product and works well! About 6 months later it is a bit creaky but I might just need to tighten the bolts. Again for the price it is great and looks nice.
- The bed is beautiful. I was hesitant about buying a mattress that comes in a box. Once I took it out of the box and set it up on the bed i was very pleased. It is a very comfortable mattress and a great price.

- This bed took a while to assemble. I had to start over once which is a tad frustrating. It does seem sturdy for my teenage son. The paint is not high quality. One area has already chipped. Due to reasonable price, I would still recommend this bed.
- Easy to assemble, sturdy and nice looking bed. The box it arrived in was small I was sure there must be another package coming, but it contained the whole bed. Glad I got this one from Wayfair, great price too.
- I love my bed it’s nice and sturdy surprisingly. I thought it would be some cheap thin metal but it’s actually a great quality for the price I paid. I wish it sat a little higher (it’s not as high as you think trust me) but besides that it’s great!

- The bed is very nice and cozy! The blue color is very beautiful, it matches my wall color too. Easy to set up! But one thing I honestly didn't like was that some pieces were missing. Anyways, I figured it out and the bed was all good. Definitely recommend Wayfair to others !!!
- It’s extremely durable and for the price it is well worth it. I have bought a $500 bed frame that broke within two weeks of having it. This is a steal of a deal and the velvet navy color is exactly what I imagined it to be. Super happy with this purchase.
- The bed was delivered on time and when I peeked inside the box the color is exactly what I was looking for, for my daughter's new bedroom. The bed will be constructed once we have moved into our new home; however, we are excited to see the final result!

- Nice color, not navy but I like that! Easy to put together especially because I had a box spring so didn’t use the slats. I did it alone and it took me about 1.5 hours. Good item for the price. Item arrived within 24 hours!!with all its parts and nothing was damaged.
- I purchased this full bed for my 2 years old toddler. Come in and when DH done putting it together, it come out as I expected. Color is true to picture and very sturdy. I decided to put a 10 inch memory foam mattress and it looks nice in my girl bedroom
- The price was just right. We love the navy blue color and modern feel of the bed. The assembly took a few hours, while moving at a leisurely pace. The bed looks great, fantastic value. Two thumbs up! NOTE: This item is cross listed on other sites as the DHP Emily bed.

- The color is just what I was looking for. I like that the headboard height is adjustable. The only issue I have is there’s a gap between the headboard and mattress. Also the upholstery had a snag right in the middle of the headboard. Otherwise I would give this product 5 stars.
- I love this bed. It was easy to put together. It took two of us simple because it is large and heavy- but the instructions were very simple and clear. It is solid and well-made. Great quality. I got the orange color and it's so pretty. I love it!
- I ordered in the off white color and it’s oerfect! Not too beige, just a light cream. The texture of the linen fabric is beautiful and it’s exactly what I needed for our guest room. It didn’t take long for my husband to assemble and it’s held up beautifully so far!

- Very cute, lightweight, love the muted pinky nude color. Assembly was easy for the most part, included everything needed, and I basically assembled everything myself. Had one issue with perfectly aligning one section, but besides that it was perfect. Packaging wasn't the greatest, but everything else was in perfect condition.
- I love the color, bed looks just like it does in the picture and it wasn’t that tricky to put together. Took me less than an hour. The only thing is it can be a little squeaky but I will probably just try to tighten things and see if that goes away.
- The bed is beautiful and truly just as described and what I wanted. I put it together in under an hour after laying out all the parts. It was easy and I am impressed with how sturdy it is. The color is a warm white and worked perfectly for me.

- This bed is stylish and modern I like the color, a sage/blue green/silver. Goes well with bright colors or neutrals. Assembly was an hour with help. One of the footboard feet was not attaching so we had to mcgyver that in plalce. Price was right, delivered quickly.
- The bed not only arrived quickly, it was packaged very efficiently and all the pieces were safely wrapped. It was easier to put together than other beds, and is so cute! The headboard is shorter than I expected, but that’s okay. I’m happy I went with this blue color.
- Love this bed! The color is so pretty and modern and matches with my decor perfectly. It is a bit shaky but it was better once I put the box spring and mattress on. So glad I purchased. Looks more expensive than the actual cost.
