Milton Bed - a steal! Gorgeous! HIGHLY recommend!
Purchased the bed for Christmas for my fiance - had to get email updates because the bed kept selling out. My best buy on Overstock. This is one of the nicest beds ever, period. I could see it in the West Elm or Room & Board or Crate & Barrel catalogs (for $1200 plus, naturally). It is truly sturdy (SOLID wood - absolutely no particle board - and it doesn't move or wiggle around!!!) The rubberwood has a beautiful grain! It was so securely packaged (came in two LARGE and HEAVY boxes) NOTHING was damaged at all! It took my fiance 3-4 hrs. to put together with no power tools whatsoever. The worst problem was fitting the headboard to the rest of the bed. One note: you don't need a box spring with this bed - and the thinner and lower profile the mattress, the better. The only thing I can complain about is that I ended up wishing I'd bought one for myself! The color is gorgeous - between a chestnut and espresso, very glowy. The style is somewhere between Modern and Asian, with a little Wright thrown in there, too. You will get a ton of compliments - as long as you have a lower-profile mattress, note, probably not a pillow top, because it obscures the headboard, which is not as tall as it could be... One note: Bed will be very difficult to take apart once, or if, we move. I recommend bolting it together and leaving it where it is!!!

Great Bed - Special tools help assembly
The Milton Bed is excellent in appearance and the finish is very good. It is well engineered for strenght and does not have any wobble at all. The supplied allen keys are not sufficient for timely assembly of the bed, especially the headboard. Luckily, I have a set of ball-end allen keys and found them indespensible for assembling the headboard. Before attempting to assemble the bed, buy 3/16" and 5/32" ball-end allen keys, some wood glue for the dowels (the supplied "Crazy Glue" is does NOTHING) and a rubber mallet. I assembled it in 2 hours by myself but with their supplied tools, it would have taken at least another hour to assemble the headboard and another half hour for the bed rails. If you intend to use this bed for a foam mattress, be aware that you will also need to buy 2 60"x40" pieces of 1/4" plywood as the mattress support grid is spaced out with 3 1/4" between each of the 2 3/4" slats. If you put the foam mattress on this support, it will eventually ooze out the bottom between the slats. I am very satisfied with the bed and feel that is an excellent value. If I didn't have the extra tools on hand, I know that my frustration level with the assembly issues would have canelled out my positive fellings about the bed. Thanks for the good deal, Overstock.

Great quality bed
I'm completely satisfied with the Milton Bed. It's both sturdy and beautiful and arrives expertly packaged so there are no scratches in the wood. I bought a pillow top mattress (18.5") to go on it, and while it is true that a high profile mattress will cover a bit of the headboard, it's still looks great. I do recommend two people for assembly. I did most of it by myself and it was not easy. Also, be aware that in addition to the tools that come with it (various sized Allen wrenches) you will also need a rubber mallet for pounding dowels, plus a drill or electric screwdriver as there are a few screw holes that are not drilled out enough to do by hand. Also, the slats that go across the bottom are not pre-drilled, so if you want to attach them you will need the electric screwdriver. I highly recommend this bed.

Beautiful bed!
This is an OUTSTANDING deal! You cannot find a bed this nice for under a grand. IMPORTANT! If you order this bed, do yourself a favor. Buy a flexible extension for your drill, and a 4mm & 5mm hex head for it. It will make assembly a breeze. Otherwise you hafta use the generic hex tool included which will take a month of turning.

Incredible value
Just a few points not covered extensively elsewhere... This is not something you'll want to fling together in a half hour. Taking your time and doing it right, this bed should serve you well for many years. The strength and overall stability of this bed is heavily dependent on the slats tying everything together. My advice is to pre-drill your pilot holes into the slat support rail. (the slats themselves are pre-drilled with countersunk holes, making this step easy) If you don't, you risk splitting the rail, as all the screws are roughly lined up down its entire length. The instructions mention spacing the slats approximately 80mm apart. For a quick and easy gauge, use a tennis ball canister flipped upside down. Using this for a spacer between the slats while you drill the pilot holes ensures the slats are evenly spaced when you're done. Beware, the instructions have a couple of errors on page 5 (mine did anyway) but nothing that should fully derail you, as long as you're able to think spatially and you've skimmed over the instructions fully before starting. The kit comes with "super glue". I passed on this and used a quality wood glue, but I only used it for the top caps on the headboard. The assembly of the head and foot board merely uses dowels to properly guide the fasteners together. Not sure why they'd advise you to use the glue here, as there's already 12 bolts holding the basic frame together. If you pay close attention to the head and foot board, you'll see holes on one side of each. This should make it obvious which way to orient them during assembly. Should you use glue here, disassembly will be less than fun. To repeat what others have mentioned many times, the bed is gorgeous and sturdy. Don't be in a hurry and it should stay this way for a long time.

Great finish and strong.
No particle board here. This bed looks / functions great for the price. The assembly is mostly straight forward, but grab an electric screwdriver for using the slats. As long as you've had experience putting furniture together, there should be no assembly issues. Put together properly, this bed is bullet proof. Some reviews have mentioned that you'll trip over the legs. I too am one of those people. Once I got used to it, and learned how to stay away from the corners, problem avoided. For a true representation of the color, look at the matching Milton Nightstand for color reference.

This bed is an excellent value.
Very, very pleased with the quality of this bed. Was everything I hoped it would be in a platform bed. Solid wood and very sturdy and comfortable. One thing, if I move I suppose I will have to disassemble the entire bed. Very pleased with this purchase. Would highly recommend to a friend.

Beautiful bed!
This bed was a little difficult to put together due to confusing and inaccurate instructions, but once we figured out where each peg and bolt went and used a little extra super glue (a very small amount was included - really too little for what was needed), it came together nicely, and the finished product made it worth all the hassle. Now that it's set up with its new memory foam-gel mattress, it's terrific! It seems strong, certainly strong enough to hold two hefty people and a big dog (not that it has to hold such hefty people!). The bed looks gorgeous in the room, like a much more expensive piece of furniture. We're still waiting for a new quilt set, so can't say how it will look fully made up, but my guess is it'll be even more gorgeous! I recommend this bed highly, if you have the time to put it together and can deal with strange Malaysian instructions! The only negative I can think of is that now that it's assembled, it's never leaving the room it's in, even if we were to move! Due to permanently glued wooden pegs, there would be no way to take the bed apart without breaking it, and it would need to be disassembled to get through a standard doorway. But if you're planning on staying where you live, BUY THIS BED! It truly is lovely, and at an amazing price.

Great Quality for the price
I have to say that with some of my past experiences purchasing furniture, I was very tentative buying this bed. Was I ever surprised when this came in. The quality is better then I though it would be and better then a lot of furniture that I have paid much more for from a furniture store. We have had this bed from more then a year now so I can honestly say that we are very happy with this purchase. It still looks exactly the same as the day we received it. I would buy this bed again and again.
