Customer Reviews
Seriously!? Who works for this company?
No instructions - 12 RIGHT sides of the drawers and no left! are they kidding? HUGE gash on the bed - AND multiple smaller ones! This bed is all press board - the only wood are the flimsy pieces that hold the mattress in place- with a large gap. I can't image anyone getting intimate on this either - since it shakes when I roll over! I was really looking forward to the extra storage. I wish I had just purchased some risers and storage containers. The only part of this I like was the head board - which was also scratched. I'd return it if it wasn't such a pain in the ass to put together.

Nice looking bed, but horrible performance
In order to start with something positive, I have to admit that this bed looks nice and stylish, and it also has plenty of space in the drawers.
End of positive. Now the reasons why I hate this bed.
1. Bad customer service. We have ordered it on July 12th, it arrived on the 24th, however, half the way assembling it, we have discovered that it was missing a small part. Contacting prepac customer service was not easy (they did not pick up the phone and did not return voice mails either, so I just kept trying for 3 days and finally got in), and eventually I have gotten the part shipped on the 28th of July. It arrived only on the August 5th (no surprise - it was shipped from Canada to Florida using UPS ground!). On August 6th we have FINALLY finished an assembly (which by itself was not that hard, providing you have all the required details) and slept on it.
2. Too loud, unbelievably loud. Here goes: if you use the bed only and solely for sleep, it is ok. However, if you want to have a little fun, be prepared that the whole neighborhood will know about it because of the superloud squeaky sounds this bed makes. I am NOT a heavy person and my husband is not either. There is no way to avoid this nightmare. I would have returned this bed if I could, but it is super heavy and bulky, and I have no idea how I would disassembly it and ship back to amazon.
3. Sharp corners. My knees are all bruiced from hitting them. This is just a BTW kind of addition, this point have played no role in my low evaluation of this bed.
Summary: unless you intend to use this bed SOLELY for sleep, PLEASE do yourself a favor and DO NOT BUY this bed. I sincerely wish I have gone for a simple and cheap metal frame instead. I give it 2 stars ONLY because I like how it looks. I would rate its performance zero stars if I could. And also keep in mind that it may be missing something and half-assembled bed will be obstructing your livingroom or bedroom for a week, two weeks or longer until you get the missing part from prepac.

Perfect for us!
I have been reading some of the reviews about this platform bed and some people definitely are way too picky. First off this bed looks awesome when it is fully completed! If you can take your time and follow the directions this bed will go together perfectly. Everything fits together with no flaws when you do it right. All of the building is pretty basic, its just a lot of screwing screws. There was not one challenging part and the instructions were very well written and easy to understand with visuals. I put 2 corner braces (Top & Bottom) on each side just to give it some extra support and sturdiness.
The worst part about the bed were the pieces of wood that the actual mattress sits on. There was 9 long planks of wood that go vertically across. Personally I found them pretty cheaply made and decided to buy some plywood to cut out and place on top of it. Fixes any potential problems and gives a sturdier support for the mattress. The outside can scratch fairly easily, so just be careful when around it. We bought the headboard to go with it and it makes the entire bed look that much better!
We purchased this when it was on sale for $297 and for that price it can't be beat. There was a total of about 4-5 hours spent putting it together with one person. Your going to need a Phillips head screwdriver and hammer. Honestly the hardest part of this whole bed was breaking down the 3 boxes it all came in to throw into the trash. Those things were double or triple layered with cardboard box.
I definitely am glad I purchased this storage bed and it's exactly what I expected.

It's Ok
I bought this for the storage and the fact that it was a platform bed. But the drawers don't fit flush with the bed and you have to be VERY careful because the bottoms or really thin and cheap the "platform" is really just a bunch of boards that are to short and always shift around. So I am ALWAYS having to left the mattress up and move the boards back into place.

Platform Queen Bed
The bed fits are needs for the price, but you get what you pay for the material used is still out gasing and leaves a bad odor. The drawers work and look okay but will always have to be carefull pulling them out. The bed does look very nice with a queen mattress only no box springs needed.
