Bello Walnut Cherry Queen-size Bed

Rating

In short, if you are still unsure about purchasing this bed, all I can say is BUY IT! I flip-flopped around for a few weeks uncertain if I should purchase a bed from Overstock. Well, I took the plunge and finally did. I ordered on a Sunday and it arrived that Friday, talk about fast! The pieces were well packed and nothing was missing or damaged. I must admit, despite the other reviews, I found this bed very easy to assemble alone, taking me about 1 hour. But I suppose depending on your skill level, the assembly experience will probably vary. Anyway, once assembled this bed becomes a very beautiful furniture piece. Solid wood of excellent quality and a very nice rich walnut finish. I have this bed in a Japanese themed room and it fits very well. If you are a fan of simple, clean design, you will not be disappointed.

We are very impressed with the quality and looks of this bed. My 10 yr old son helped my husband and they put the bed together in less than an hour, so I am not sure why I read so many reviews about the assembling being so difficult. For the price, it is a great product. We love it.

I purchased this bed from Overstock.com over 2 years ago, and I am still loving it! The only thing is, I do not believe this bed was meant to be DIY. Get a couple friends who are truly handy to help you! Once assembled, it is beautiful, sturdy, and comfortable. It has very good support. I actually moved from one apartment to another, and the bed held up beautifully! I absolutely love it! I also got the dresser...loved it, too...but again, the assembly was a challenge. You MUST have a power drill or you'll wish you bought something else!

There are a lot of pieces. Get an empty room. The many platforms you must screw in come with no pre drilled holes, so remember to work out your biceps before assembly, but not too close to the event; you don't want to be sore. This is a two person job. Its very pretty and zen like though. I use it with a thick memory foam mattress from this same site. once toghether i couldn't be happier. its also very secure. Oh- also, tricky assembly in certain sections, you'll see.

*Note that in the ratings the only reason it got a 4star was the lack of pre-drilled holes for the supports (where the slates get screwed into). And that if you don't have a power drill look for about 30-45min of your time just screwing in the screws for the slates. I must say that this bed is a steal. Nice color, and holds up. No noise creaks at all. Now my only issues were that the notches for the allen wrenches are a bit snug on the head board ( where it gives you room for the allen wrench to fit to screw in to the legs) and you have to screw them in with the longer point of the wrench. Also like previous reviews stated, power drill is a must, the slates for the supports I would have to say take the longest without one (My hands are sore from the manual phillips screwdriver :/ ). Thanks overstock for this great bed frame!! Looks great with the 10" memory foam mattress I purchased from here!
