We’ve long desired a bed larger than Queen and had recently purchased a memory foam Cali King mattress. After deciding we would keep it we needed to get it off the floor and so the search began. Between the limited space in the bedroom, functional preferences, design preferences and price range our options were few. This frame was one of the few which checked most boxes and we are happy with the decision.Cons:Whether purchasing frame, headboard or the combo the availability and shipping dates were all over the place. Since I wasn’t willing to wait 2 months it forced me into certain options. These factors are likely in flux all the time so no stars off for that.Storage... none. There is about a 4” gap at the bottom around the bed so you won’t be sliding anything underneath and there’s no platform to lift so you can’t get under the mattress either. There were no expectations that this item would allow for any storage so no stars off for that.VERY heavy! Trying to get a cat out from underneath for a Vet appointment was not fun. (A hockey stick or broom will help though!) My cat, my problem, no stars off. :-)Pros:VERY heavy! sturdy, no squeaking. Doesn’t get pushed around if you lean or bang into it.It assembles quickly if you have a drill with a screwdriver bit and a 6” extension. Even in a tight space we had this together in about 30 minutes.Appearance and quality is high. There was one tiny thread we clipped and one dirty smudge where the carton had torn. Cleaned up easily. We got the light beige, very neutral, but we probably would’ve liked the light gray as well. That may have been the toughest decision.No more banging my head on the wall when I lean back! Still recovering from a severe concussion in 2018, now the soft/padded heard board saves me from my own stupidity.Misc:We bought the combo together as one. It’s exactly the same as buying them separately. Even the order lines indicate this after it is processed. This means you will receive extra pieces for attaching the headboard so you don’t need most of what’s in the box. If you only buy one or the other to compliment something you already own there’s a good chance the included parts will be all you need.Thank you to all the other reviewers who attached photos! They were very helpful!Our box arrived and we could tell it had been opened. Not sure when or where this happened but someone did take out the legs and tools to put the bed together. Could have been a big deal but I called Lucid (company) and immediately they got to work correcting the situation. To top it off, they emailed me every step of the way to make sure everything was good. Top 3, if not best, customer service I've had to deal with. Alsooooo, the frame is super cute. Just waiting on our bed to get here to take a picture ?Great looking bed! A bit pricy but it’s well made and looks really good! I attached a headboard from another manufacturer so I now have a statement piece! My guest room is fab!!!If this 51 yr old with health issues can put it together by herself anyone can! UPS totally destroyed the box but luckily everything was fine. Love the color & style! I am going to copy & paste another reviewers (CON) words because they are ACCURATE!!“Cons: there’s 7 inches gap at the top (or end) of the bed where the headboard goes..the “supporters” for the planks doesn’t really reach the floor and IF.. is slippery in hardwood floor”THAT is the most annoying part of the whole set up.It's a good product, but I think they sent me something that had been returned.arrived damagedI love the look. It’s simple, minimal, and exactly what I wanted! The issue is with the ability of the frame to withstand certain…pressure. The slats & supports come loose often and it causes the mattress to cave into the middle. Thankfully it can be modified to be stronger, and still works for us. I do wish it came with the pieces to make it more sturdy, though.
