Mattress Frame

[Review] Zinus Gerard Deluxe Faux Leather Upholstered Platform Bed/ Mattress Foundation/ Easy Assembly/ Strong Wood Slat Support, Twin, Brown, Model:WSPB-T

The bed comes inside a flat and narrow box. This is very unusual for a bed frame of this size. The ingenious design allows all pieces of the bed to fit inside the headboard. That includes the legs, slats and the rest of the frame. This, in turn, made it possible for the entired bed to fit inside a single box. The box is easy to transport. It is not difficult to fit through narrow hallways. Carrying it up the stairs won’t give you a hard time either.

Putting this bed frame together is a breeze. It should not take anyone an hour to assemble it. All pieces align with the holes perfectly. You wouldn’t have to force any piece just to get it in. Spare screws are provided for your peace of mind.

Once fully built, the bed frame looks as elegant as it does in the pictures. The faux leather lends the bed a luxurious feel. The headboard, which is what you would instantly notice, looks like real leather. You’ll only realize it’s faux if you look very closely. The foot and sides of the frame are covered with the same material. This ties up the look of the bed.

Support

This upholstered bed frame features wooden slats. They are solid and provides support to any mattress. It’s fine if you’re using spring, latex or memory foam. The slats eliminate the need for a box spring. In case you don’t know, slats increase the longevity of a mattress by giving support to the mattress. Without slats, the bed would sag and lose its shape over time. The slats are evenly spaced apart. Velcro holds the slats together. You wouldn’t have lay the slats in position one by one. This ensures that the entire bed is well-supported. The slats are also well-fitted with the frame. This keeps them from moving around especially with a mattress on top.

Comfort

The Zinus Gerard platform bed is a low-profile bed frame. This is great for anyone who finds it more comfortable when their bed sits low to the ground. Needless to say, the bed has very small clearance. If you get this, do not expect to store a lot of items underneath. You can get shorter fabric storage organizers to fit underneath. Those that are taller might not fit at all.

It also comes with a low-profile footboard, which ensures that the mattress stays put and doesn’t slide off the frame.

If you are a light sleeper, you’ll definitely hate it when the bed is creaking. You’ll be happy to know that this bed frame is as quiet as a bed frame can be. You’ll only hear noises if a few screws have loosened from the holes. That is an easy fix, though. You can simply tighten the screws. Do not overtighten, though. The frame does not wobble too. As long as you the bed on an even floor, it should stay put without shaking.

The headboard has a cushion underneath. It is not as soft as other headboards are, but you can sit up comfortably. You can lean on it while you work on your laptop or read a book. You should understand that it is hollow in the middle as the inside was used to store the pieces during shipping.

Design

This upholstered bed is covered with faux leather. It looks like leather without the same degree of maintenance that real leather requires. Cleaning it would require a damp cloth. The espresso color gives it a warm and classy feel. The platform bed appears much more expensive than it really is. A similar bed frame would easily cost you $500 or more in a a furniture store. Getting this at under $200 for a twin size is an excellent deal.

This beautiful bed frame is designed for master bedrooms. You can have this in the guestroom too to impress your guests and make them as comfortable as possible.

Last but not the least, Amazon Prime offers free shipping if you order this. Thebed frame is pretty heavy, so you’ll save a lot from not paying for the shipping fee. Make sure to check your location to see if you are eligible to avail of this benefit.
