Expert Reviews
What reviewers liked
The overall steel framework will always provide a stable base for your mattress and is sturdy enough to carry substantial amounts of weight.
With the steel frames and wire, the bed frame has a wide slat plus recessed legs, which offer adequate support and stability needed.
Tons of under bed storage, easy to assemble and disassemble, frame keeps things quiet, super affordable price point
Another bonus with this platform steel slat frame and box spring combination (14 inches tall) is that it provides ample room for additional storage underneath the mattress.
Leg caps to protect floor form scuffing
It didn’t squeak, it didn’t creak, and the mattress stayed exactly where I put it—there are these sticky strips included with the package (essentially giant pieces of nonstick tape) that ensure your mattress won’t slide around, but so far I haven’t needed them.
To prevent the chances of any accidents, the corners are rounded so any collisions will be softer.
It’s so supportive that one reviewer says it helped them revive an old mattress.
This bed frame from Zinus is lightweight and easy to assemble. It’s compatible with SmartBase brackets for those who wish to use the frame with a headboard.
