Golden Gate Beds Victorian Vintage Style Metal Bed Frame with Wrought Iron Headboard and Footboard, Classic Platform Bedframe with Storage, No Box Spring Needed, Mattress Foundation, Black, Queen Size

Used in guest room in my in laws house where my husband and I sleep. Major upgrade. It’s stylish, sturdy and was easy to put together. You do need 2 people or something to be able to prop pieces up on. Also price was really good.

The bed truly meets my expectations. Finish is beautiful and not at all flimsy. I do have to admit that the assembly is a bit challenging. We are seniors and had our adult son assemble it for us. He’s quite handy and said that the hardware was difficult to work with. I heard him dropping nuts or bolts on numerous occasions. It took him about 2 hours to assemble. All parts were there and lined up with no problem. Quality item but be patient and plan to spend some time on the floor during assembly.

Beautiful, sturdy bed for our cabin. All of the platform beds I was researching had a lower weight limit and mixed reviews, plus they were glossy black which made them look cheap. This bed is very sturdy with no squeaking and the matte black paint is perfect. It took about an hour for 2 of us to assemble, and we twice had an issue where there was paint clogging a hole and we stripped the screws, but they provided extras so all was good. Directions were very clear and my husband commented that they should be in charge of writing directions for all products that need assembly! We’ve slept on it for a week now and love it.

I read so many reviews of inexpensive metal bed frames before I ordered... but this one seemed to have better, more thoughtful reviews so I took a chance on it... and glad I did.The bed arrived promptly and the box was in good shape. There was no damage to any of the bed pieces, and all the hardware was there including pretty good instructions. There were even a couple extra pieces of the most critical hardware items. Included were the allen wrenches and a spanner wrench needed for assembly... and everything was really wrapped well. In fact... it took quite a while to unwrap all the pieces!With my brother helping, we put the bed together in about an hour. It wasn't hard, you just need to study the instructions and pay attention. Although some of the construction seems a bit complicated for what it does... I guess it all comes down to how can they make something like this fit in such a small box?The metal was quite sturdy for this kind of product, and I suspect it will hold up pretty well too. The critical bolts all had compression rings, and the washers were all lock washers, so clearly the manufacturer spent an extra buck for better and better-designed hardware.I modified this bed in two ways: first, I painted it. The delivered color is a quite reddish, shiny copper finish. It was just way too pretty so I misted the headboard, footboard, and slide rails (didn't bother with all the slats as they won't show) with a dark brown matte spray paint I had, then a super light dusting of black, then a little more matte brown. This just served to take the shine off the copper-looking new bed, and give it a more vintage feel. I held the spray can a couple feet from the pieces and swiped right and left to let the paint just gently settle on the metal... it worked well and took maybe 30 minutes total including flipping the pieces a couple times to get that paint mist everywhere.The other thing I did, which I do to every piece of furniture that comes in the house, is to add protective felt circles to all the legs on the bed. I use a drop of superglue to get them to stick better than the peel-n-stick provided... even if you aren't moving furniture often to clean, you don't want the various metal legs on a bed like this to, over time, dig any kind of hole in your flooring material.Overall- this looks like a great value in a metal bed. It was reasonable to assemble, arrived perfect, and feels a bit heftier than I expected. It now has a great vintage look with my spray paint upgrade, and I think it will be a good sturdy bedframe for years ahead. Recommended... especially for the price!

Apologies for the weird angle of the picture- my room is rather small! This bed frame definitely met my expectations for a sturdy vintage style bed that would support my modern memory foam mattress without needing box springs. I know we're all nervous about sight-unseen purchases from Amazon, so I wanted to break this one down a little more thoroughly.Pros:*Great price point for what you get! A regular adjustable bed frame with no slats is around a hundred dollars at W*lM*rt, and that doesn't include a headboard/footboard, so this was a great deal.* Fairly easy assembly! It did take two of us just because of the small space I had to work in. Could probably be done with one person if you had room to prop up the headboard/footboard while you attached them. Did not need any tools that it didn't come with. The instructions were clear to me- definitely pay attention when it says "Don't tighten bed frame initially"- that's printed in big red letters at every step, and was a source of jokes for me and my roommate while we assembled it, but they mean it! The slats won't go in properly if any of the bolts are fully tightened. It stays up and stable during assembly even with the bolts loose, so don't worry about that. All of the necessary parts were there, and they even give an extra of every bolt/washer/allen wrench.* Sturdy and quiet! The description doesn't lie about the foam pieces under the slats keeping it quiet and comfortable. No movement at all with me and my 60lb dog on and off of it.Cons:I will preface this section with this disclaimer- these aren't hard nos for me. Just a little bit of pickiness for anyone who may be a perfectionist. :P* One of the headboard legs was a darker color than the rest of the frame. The headboard and footboard are the same size, so the headboard comes with two legs that you bolt to it to raise it up. One leg was a darker, more brownish bronze than the rest which was a more reddish bronze (which I loved). I just put it on the side that goes against the wall. No big. Likely just a different lot of paint.* Two of the bolts didn't thread properly. But that's ok- they give you extras!* There was a scrape in the paint on the top of the headboard from shipping. It was packed very well, but things happen. It isn't huge and there's no dent, so I can touch it up with some textured Rustoleum paint of the same color.* One of the slats didn't fit quite perfectly in the slot. All of the others felt like they "clicked" in and were flush with the frame, but one sticks up just a hair. We confirmed it was the slat itself and not the plastic it fits into in the frame, but the amount it sticks up is not an issue.Overall I LOVE it. It fits my simple but vintage furniture style so well, and I don't feel like I'm going to break it. I hope this helps!!

Bed was perfectly packaged. It went together very easily and all pieces fit well. It is beautiful!

It’s sturdy, easy to put together, and quiet.

My bed arrived yesterday and I was a little nervous that it would be scratched and dented because the outside box was in bad shape. It was so well packed there were no issues and no missing parts. This 68 year old grandma was able to follow the diagrams and put it together, by myself, this morning. It goes great in the guest bedroom, but I would love it in my own bedroom.

First it arrived one day early. The bed frame is so easy to assemble and everything fits, no problem. I liked the color of this frame and is beautiful . I would recommend this to anyone looking for a bed frame.

Easy to assemble, very solid bed frame and great price.

The bed frame is very well made. I bought the dark brown. It takes some time to unwrap. Looks nice, good value, and quiet, no squeaks. My only complaint is the leg on the middle of the bed is hard metal, and just making the bed you can easily bang your toe! It hurts! So I bought a pool noodles and cut the size needed, made a slit in it and it slips right around middle leg. Going to cover it with brown cloth so it doesn't show. I still can bang my toe but it doesn't hurt now! I will try to add a picture soon.

Love it. It looks really nice and I sleep well on this bed frame.

Bed is strong and nice frame. Just disappointed that headboard isn’t higher. Headboard doesn’t show because of pillows.
