Aspire Beds Atlantic Solid Wood White Shaker Bed Frame with Natural Wood Highlights (UK King (150 x 200 cm))

So when I had ordered this bed, I went to reviews..... I know, I should have looked first.... most said it was a long assemble process and that was true. I am 8 stone and not any kind of DIY expert and the instruction show the bits and letters for the bolts and bits, numbers for the pieces. And there are lots of each!!!! By making sure I took my time, I ensured everything was the right way around and that I was using the right bits. The dowels fir easy into some parts but need help into others, gentle taps with my little hammer. The bed ends with the white slats are best assembled flat, push on one long bit on to the dowel slats, then gently half pull each slat away from it's dowel, whilst gently pushing over and covering half the other long bit's dowels individually, it's the only way of putting them together with a final squeeze. It took me 3 hours, on my own to do the bed with no mistakes and all bits used. It is sturdy and does not make any noises. I am very happy with it and myself..... I feel proud that I could do it, though half hour was spent searching for cross and normal screwdrivers, else i could not have done. Screwing down the slats was the hardest bit, but anyone handy andf used to screwdrivers probably would find that easy. There was no marks or chips and the bed is very nice..

Middle support beams are a little flimsy but everything else is top quality and the instructions are simple to follow. Overall value for money.

I was not expecting such a decent bed in this price. Assembling is bit time taking but well guided.

This arrived yesterday and was a nightmare to assemble. Unless you’re used to flat packs (which I am), you’ll spend at least three or four hours just building the thing and will need two people to do it.On assembling the bed, most of the dowels for the headboard and footboard were too small and made it a horror to put together and some holes for the screws were drilled completely out of alignment.Despite my misgivings, I assembled it with the help of my partner in about two hours and looked forward to a good nights sleep as it looked sturdy enough once it was put together.Today I noticed a drip in the mattress as I was making the bed and looked under it only to find two of the slats had already split.I understand this is a cheap bed but even for a cheap bed, it should last more than one night! All those 5 star reviews are either extremely lucky or have been written by people in the seller’s employ.I implore you, do NOT buy this bed! If I could give it zero stars I would.I have arranged for a return and refund as there’s no way I’m tolerating a bed that lasts a single night and will tell anyone who cares to read this as well as anyone else I come into contact with that they should find another bed and another seller.

Overall the bed looks nice now its assembled.However, this bed cannot be assembled without 2 people on hand. There were two screws which did not fit the holes, luckily the bed would be sturdy enough without them, but I chose to drill a nail in instead to be sure.All of the bed slats come with screws to put them in place but you have to use a drill to screw each individual screw in which was not made clear when I purchased the bed. I am lucky that I had a drill to hand and therefore was able to assemble the bed.Overall the bed is nice but the assembly instructions are misleading. It is also not going to be possible for me to dismantle the bed in order to move house etc due to the way it was assembled. This is very disappointing for me as I was hoping to be able to take my bed to my next house, this won't be possible.

Good and comfortable but cannot be assembled by one person.

This is a really good solid bed for the money.Looks great, fairly easy to put together and my daughter loves it. Looks nice and simplistic in her room

I've done furniture like this before (even worse than IKEA instructions too), but this was definitely finicky to set up on your lonesome. Middle slats (long thing one in the middle) had holes that made the whole thing too low, so the legs on either side were too long and thus raised the bed and made it all wobbly. Had to drill the larger holes above and redo the whole thing, hence the title.Speaking of holes, very weird placements of some that make no sense. Massive holes then small ones, and the instruction leaflet doesn't explain which hole to put what in, so there's that.Only time will tell if it holds up to a grown adult sleeping on it though. Hope it doesn't break on me in the middle of the night. I'm too old to break bones.

comme sur la photo, notice super claire pour le montage

Mériterais d’être deux pour le monter mais faisable seulBon aspect bien que quelques chocs visible

Lit qui fissure déjà et les barreaux bougent. La qualité n'est pas celle à quoi je m'attendais. Très déçu

La calidad es pésima y se rompen las maderas al montarla (aclaro que tengo mucha experiencia montando)Es muy bonita pero no volvería a comprarla

Un peu difficile à monter, livraison rapide, m’a pas l’air très solide mais pour une personne ça suffit.
