ZINUS Paul Metal and Wood Platform Bed Frame / No Box Spring Needed / Wood Slat Support / Easy Assembly, Queen

Okay, reading my headline sounds as though Zinus paid me to review this bedframe, but I assure you, this is not the case. I've only had one interaction with Zinus in my entire life, and I'll share more of that later in the review. To start, I'll say that I was looking for the perfect, affordable bedframe for about four months... Yes, you read that right; four months of nonstop, daily research - from text reviews, to videos, to DIY options, to store-browsing, etc., and I finally settled on the Zinus Epic Queen-size bedframe. So, why did I choose this one? Simple; the good reviews, the style and the price! This bed seemed like a win-win-win, and who was I to deny myself victory? I placed my order and waited patiently for it to arrive. It must be noted that I shipped this bedframe to Miami, and then overseas to the Caribbean, and crossed my fingers, hoping it would survive the trip. Well, finger-crossing seems to work, because it didn't have a dent or scratch when it got here - the packaging was perfect! It's heavy, and generally you may need two people to maneuver this baby, but if you're a strong, burly man like myself, you'll be just fine moving it on your own (lift with your knees people!). Unpacking all of the items revealed the best set of instructions I've ever seen on any product (I'm not kidding, making pancakes is harder), and it was a breeze to assemble. It also came with all the right tools to get the job done, not just right, but quickly! More and more, I became not only a fan of this bedframe, but of Zinus. Until... Well, while assembling it with my girlfriend, we noticed something - it was short of two Small (S) screws, and we decided to use the Medium (M) screws to secure the small legs to their bracket on the frame. In doing so, we overtightened the screws and split the small legs (just a bit). It's a very small split in the wood, and the legs are still very usable. But, I feared the worse and knew that would greatly shorten the lifespan of those legs. My worst fear is having them break while lying on the bed. Anyway, we finished assembling the bedframe, put the mattress on it and tested it out (wink wink)... Not only is it well-built and durable, but it looks absolutely gorgeous, with those blue metal accents. We've been using this bedframe for about two months now, and it has held up quite well. Now, this is where Zinus and I meet... After I registered my bedframe on their website, I contacted support to see what they can do about the fmall feet that I split. Well, they responded promptly (within the same day), and without any questions asked, offered to ship me two small screws and the two small replacement legs that I split. The only thing they requested from me was a photo of the damaged legs, which I supplied forthright. Apart from making and selling a great product, their customer support is A1! I do not work for Zinus and am not affiliated with them, in any way. I'm just a regular guy like you, who happens to like nice things on a small budget, and I'm very pleased with my purchase. My girlfriend is too (wink wink).

I was looking for the best combo of 1) affordable 2) cute and 3) not being made completely of metal, bed frame and settled on this one. I’ve had it for a few months now, and have to say I love it!! I was worried about any metal components squeaking—this bed hasn’t squeaked at all. The headboard and footboard are beautiful, and it was so easy to put together (did it myself). This frame seems very solid considering how light it is overall. Highly recommend. Oh and you’ll notice some of the slats have a strip of sticky tape on them to help hold your mattress on the frame, because there’s no “lip” on the frame to hold the mattress in. But I haven’t even used that, I just kept the cover on the tape strips (you’ll know what I mean when you see it), because the cover on my mattress already has little rubber bumps all over the bottom for grip and that’s been fine. Highly recommend this frame overall.

2018-08-15: Initial review; king size frame Weight - the package this comes in weighs FAR too much for one person to move, but that's not really a problem. We opened the box on our porch, and moved all the pieces inside separately. None of the individual pieces actually weigh very much, and there are surprisingly few pieces. Setup - extremely easy! A ratcheting alan wrench is included, which made the setup very fast. There's two different lengths of bolts. That's it. No other hardware is needed. The kit also included 2 spare bolts of each length. The wood slats secure in place with velcro, which I wasn't sure would be a good idea. So far it seems fine, although the mattress can catch on the velcro a bit when putting it on the frame and shifting it around to get the final fit. Use - so far it's extremely sturdy. No shifting of the frame even though it's on a concrete floor. No creaking or squeaking noises of any kind, despite standard usage by an adult couple. Appearance - the frame is matte black, which is nicely neutral. Once the mattress and bedding was on, the frame isn't actually visible. The headboard is a good height and allows plenty of pillows to be piled up against it for sitting upright. The wood of the headboard is very true to the photos on Amazon, and they're sturdy as well. Drawbacks - the only thing I would like to see would be stiffer wood slats that support the mattress. The ones included are a bit springy and rather thin. If they do get damaged at some point I'll likely replace them with oak boards of the same width/length/thickness from Home Depot/Lowes. So far it's not an issue due to the metal bar that runs from the head to the foot of the bed, down the center, and supports the slats. On the King frame, that bar has 3 separate legs, which adds a LOT of support.

Pretty good bed, had a comfortable sleep on it. Took 90 minutes to assemble myself, was pretty easy. Would have taken 45 minutes with 2 people as it would have been easier to get the right angles when screwing in some of the parts during assembly. I recommend.

Although delivery was a little longer than expected,once the bed frame arrived we were delighted with it. Assembly took less than an hour. All parts were labelled for ease of assembly and everything lined up accurately. The two Hex Head keys supplied were unexpected, (one of which was a ratchet head hex key). Time will tell about quality but it seems very good and hopefully will last well. We are thinking of ordering a second unit and have no doubts about this product.

This is the second time I bought a Zinus frame and I really love it!. It is easy to assemble though I asked my friend to help me because I can't do it by myself but the instructions were pretty clear and everything is labeled properly. As for sturdiness, my parents and my 13 yo brother came to visit me for a month and all 3 of them used the bed - that was April to May 2019. We did not see any problem and all three of them slept comfortable. I love the minimalistic vibe of the frame. For me it is definitely worth buying. Delivery - this is where it sucked. Not the seller's fault perhaps, but of Amazon, I guess. It was delayed several times and needless to say, that was very disappointing.

A bit of a challenge to get a piece this large delivered mid-pandemic, but worth the wait. Let's get to the facts: Sturdy. No squeaking. Solid. Easy and quick to assemble for 2 people. Attractive modern piece. Metal is a blue hue, not black, but it's hard to tell in most light. I love the color. Just wish it was stated here since the photos don't make it obvious. Very happy with this purchase!

For the money I paid for a king frame, this can not be beat! Keep in mind if you are in a condo with limited space, this frame is ideal since the frame is so thin and you do not loose any space with an unnecessarily large head board. Not to mention is high enough off the ground for storage. I have suit cases, storage bins and Landry baskets underneath to maximize space in my condo. Furthermore, It has a very clean and modern look. Very sturdy, not sure how people say this squeaks, it is very quite for us. Easy to put together and easy to justify! 1 month in and no complaints
