UrbanLab QuickLock Metal Platform Full Bed Frame | Quiet & Sturdy | No Box Spring Needed | 14-inch Mattress Foundation Metal Bed Frame Full Size | 3500 LB Limit Full Platform Bed Frame

My wife and I are big people. Together, we weigh over 600 lbs, so we wanted a frame that could hold up to our weight. So far, it's held up well and doesn't make any creaking noises.I would definitely recommend putting some padding around the legs. The first time you stub one of your toes on the legs, you'll wish you had. I'd suggest using some foam pipe insulation you can get at the hardware store or perhaps a swimming pool noddle. Split it lengthwise and wrap it around the legs of the bed with a zip or or something.The legs are about 1" square. They have plastic caps on the end, but you still might want to consider putting a block of wood or furniture coaster under the legs if you are worried about damaging your carpet.Assembly was easy. Technically, it doesn't require any tools, but the parts fit together snugly, so a rubber mallet to tap the pieces into place is a help, or perhaps a regular hammer with a wood block to protect the metal surface from damage.The instructions use a part numbering scheme. However, the parts are not labeled. Many of them look almost exactly the same, so I'll include the following for reference:The parts that form the head of the bed are labeled 'A' and 'B'. These have a long slot in the legs, presumably for a headboard. Parts labeled with an 'A' have two legs, parts labeled with a 'B' have one leg.Parts 'A-1' and 'B-1' are for the foot of the bed. They have a metal pocket on only one side.Parts 'A-2' and 'B-2' go across the width at the middle of the bed. These have pockets on both sides.Parts 'C' and 'D' are the same except that 'C' has holes in it for blue plastic alignment brackets.

We got this for my son assembly was easy put the box spring and mattress on it but the unit only lasted about 8-9 months

Okay, maybe you need upper body strength to haul the box in from your door step, but the assembly of the bed itself doesn't require balancing any awkward heavy parts. Very easy to assemble alone. I estimate it took me no more than 15 minutes today. The concept of assembly is simple, no tools to worry about (yay!), and the bed is solid.The only knock on this bed relates to the 6 plastic clips that come with the frame, which are supposed to be used as mini guardrails, of sorts, to keep your mattress in place. Why the company didn't make them out of metal like the rest of the components leaves me baffled, because a 1 oz piece of plastic is no match for an 85-pound mattress. Just a minor mattress shift in either direction sent those pieces flying off immediately. Not a deal-breaker, though.I'd say the clearance under the bed is about 12.5 inches, so it offers great extra storage space, and the simple design ensures there are no supporting legs or brackets to interfere with retrieving or maneuvering storage under the bed. (No Tetris-like shifting to get things to fit.) I'd say the frame is worth the price. Looking forward to trying it out tonight!

It's heavy and very stable!

It was a little difficult to put together but got it figured out. Worked great with the memory foam bed.
