South Shore Gramercy Full/Queen-Size Platform Bed Frame

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: So I bought this cus the price seemed right for what the product was offering but on the first night when I was assembling it the material was actually crumbling, cracking, and coming apart as I was trying assemble the entire thing. Within month one the bottom foundation support cracked in half (shown in the picture) just from my body weight. And the pre drilled holes were not in the correct positions when I received this. It’s a very heavy product a majority of the weight comes from the 4 pieces of plywood on top which is the ONLY strong part of this entire piece. Would I recommend this, NOT REALLLYYYY. Would I tell people to try it, maybe it’s a good product I may have just gotten a defective one.

Geli: I was able to put together by myself, not too difficult to do. Instructions not very clear, but with some patience I was able to figure it out. I gave it 3 stars for 2 reasons. 1st it's not super sturdy, will not recommend for household with children who may jump on bed. 2nd, I was more disappointment with this one, board M has the holes were drilled on the white side, which sits inside, out of view, and the the back of the board is the ugly press-wood brown. I would uploaded pictures, but I was unable to do so 😒

Ross R: Pretty much got what I expected. The bed went together just like any flat pack piece of furniture. Instructions were fine, clear, legible, easy to follow. The package IS heavy, sorry delivery people…. I brought each of the pieces inside and to the room separately. The drawers are bigger than I thought. I wish it could have come with a roll of stick on felt for the bottom, though. And finally, the bed seems sturdy enough once assembled.

Deidra CDeidra C: While putting together it continued to fall apart as the pieces weren’t long enough to stay in place. (Shown in picture)
Bed was scratched in numerous places, but I didn’t want to send it back so we assembled it anyways. This was one of the worst things I’ve ever assembled and I’ve put together a lot a few beds and lots of other things before. Typically find it enjoyable. I didn’t enjoy this.

The drawers didn’t line up and even are actually too small for the space they go in so they don’t even stay on their track.

I’m not taking the bed apart because it was annoying to build, I would bet that some people got a better bed when they purchased this… but I would not recommend taking your chances.

Michael bellucci: I was nervous when buying this bed for my son. The reviews were bad, but the price was right, and it offered what i needed, so i took the chance. Man was i right about this one. Bed is solid AF, no extra supports, braces, pieces of wood, or legs added. I am a carpenter, with many years of experience, so i took my time, and i built it according to specs, with the materials given to me in the package, and i ended up with a great bed for my teenage son. My 6 year old uses it as his indoor trampoline, and i'm not even concerned about the bed. So if you want a good bed for a fantastic price, this is it. TAKE YOUR TIME BUILDING IT, and if you are new to building, ask for help from someone that has held a drill before. And you wont regret it

Terry Bendell: Two-hour assembly time. HA! More like 5 hours. This thing is heavy and shouldn't be moved after assembly. Easily broken if you try to relocate it to a new area after assembly. Build it where you will be using it! :)

Darqnyz: When I purchased this bed I had not read the reviews. Afterwards I had a look at them, and felt afraid, because many of those reviews were extremely negative.

The top 3 complaints:
1. Low quality material
2. Instructions were not clear
3. Not sturdy construction

This bed is fine.

Seriously. It's ok. For less than $300 you're getting just the right amount of quality. It's all particle board, so you have to be careful when handling it when assembling.

The instructions were extremely clear. Not heiroglyphic. Not cryptic. Very straight forward. The illustrations were very crisp and concise. I'm sorry to say it, but anybody who was confused by this, wasn't paying attention and following the instructions to the letter.

The bed is sturdy enough. Again, you won't be taking this thing down a flight of stairs, as it is particle board. But it's isn't deceptive. If you punch a hole in this, it's due to abuse, not normal wear and tear. If you assemble it wrong because you didn't follow the instructions, then you're liable to break things on it.

I read a complaint saying that the box was "too heavy". It is pretty heavy. I...

Cate: I had such high hopes for this bed. I needed a bed with a blocked off base to keep pets from going under, and the platform and drawers on this seemed perfect. Then I got it. While putting the frame together, it was quickly apparent that the pieces didn't fit together properly. The holes on certain pieces were drilled in the wrong spot or something, because it was extremely apparent with the top boards not lining up along the edges. I let that go, figuring the comfortor would cover the edge so it wouldn't be an issue.

Then the drawer issue happened. See, the bottom of each drawer is not made of the same material as the sides or front. Rather, it was more like a thick particle board that slipped into ridges in bottom of each side to stay in place. The way that the construction was, however, made it so that whenever you put any items of weight into the drawers, the bottom would bow, and would slip out of the ridge at the back of the drawer (even after I tried using wood glue to keep it all together). The result is not being able to close the drawer if it's opened all the way because the bowed bottom would catch on the bottom base of the drawer opening,...
