ZinusSmartBase Tool-Free Assembly Mattress Foundation, 14 Inch Metal Platform Bed Frame, No Box Spring Needed, Sturdy Steel Frame, Underbed Storage, Queen

*disclaimer* I live in an apartment, if you do too, you've found the right review!Lemme start by saying, my S.O. and I had our mattress on the floor for the first 3 weeks of moving in to our new place. This meant our brand new sheets, comforter, and a few throw pillows, often frequented the floor; they all picked up dust, dirt, cat hair, etc., the usual day to day messes of life. Stepped on, slipped on, you name it, it probably happened. If you're in this boat, you know, it can be a little frustrating.I told myself I'd build a box spring, buy a nice bedframe with a headboard, do this right... That was 2.5 weeks after telling myself it would be worth it, looking in local shops for pre built box springs and seeing them for no less than $100, and almost $200 after delivery + taxes.Well, since I'm here I guess you can imagine how that went. With work, trying to make the apartment feel like home, constantly cleaning and trying to maintain a social life, and without really your own front yard to do the whole building thing, the idea just became a faint whisper. It was around this time I also noticed the closets were a bit cluttered too, but I just told myself, "this was apartment living"One night, I decided to come to amazon to see if they sell box springs. To my absolute distrust and hesitation, I clicked through some reviews of this platform bedframe. It seemed pretty promising, but some reviews had a couple issues with broken parts and said it felt uncomfortable. I decided to roll the Amazon dice and purchase the platform bedframe.3 days rolled by and it came, shipped to my apartment and dropped off with a loud "thud" on the front door. The package was heavy and I guess the delivery guy was frustrated from my place being such a frequent stop for him with heavy packages. "Great..." I said, hoping no damage had occurred. The box was pretty beat up too.I opened it, assembled it (took about 5 minutes of finger tightening wing nuts btw) and plopped the mattress up on it. Thankfully it seemed to survive it's rough journey from the warehouse to my place, I noticed two things immediately:1.) This was the answer to making the bedroom feel more like a home2.) There is a ridiculous amount of storage underneath the bed that simply isn't allowed for in closets.I stuffed as many rarely-used items under the bed as I possibly could, which allowed me to straighten up the closets. I even made room to keep the box to the frame in there, just in case the S.O. didn't like it and we had to send it back.She came home and also instantly appreciated the look and feel of the bedroom. Needless to say, we did some investigation to see just how loud and sturdy the bedframe is. It's silent, and unmoving! ;)I threw the box out after 2 nights of sleeping on the bed, confident in my purchase and ready to guide other potential customers with a humongous review on why they should also take the plunge and try it. It seriously is the perfect bedframe for an apartment. You'll be glad you tried it!

Best investment of 2025, hands down. Product came to our door on-time. It was packaged really well. No issues, no broken or defective parts, no scratches. It was really easy to put together. My Husband was so impressed with the tool they provided, in fact he put it in his tool box for future use. They did not seem to spare expense when it comes to making this item and they put a lot of thought into the design. It can hold a lot, very sturdy, does not make a sound when on it or doing other physical activities. Wish I bought one sooner. All that for this price, it is a steal!

Great, sturdy bed frame!I’m really happy with this metal bed frame. It’s very strong and sturdy exactly what I needed after breaking the slats on my bed. I got this frame specifically because I needed better support, and it’s been perfect. Assembly was a little challenging for me, only because I’m not used to putting furniture together, but the instructions were clear and I was able to get it done. Once set up, it felt super solid and supportive. Definitely a great buy!

I purchased this frame almost 3 years ago. It literally is so great. Makes no noise and is as sturdy as my old frame and box spring from Bassett furniture. I am lightweight at 130 pounds. However was able to accommodate my 240 pound boyfriend as well!Now looking for a new frame for my daughter who is going to a queen, so I had to look up purchases to get the same one.

Bought two and am very happy overall. I do recommend. Ordered one and delivery was delayed multiple times. Amazon eventually suggests reordering and I can return the first if it ever shows up. Well, it did, so I had two arrive a day or two apart. Since I had already I remèdes to buy a second if I liked the first this wasn’t terrible.Assembly is both easy and hard. There are places where the nut is (soldered?) on and painted over. Works great 90% of the time. Couple instances of no way in hell is the bolt screwing in. Luckily for me zip ties were a safe and effective solution in those spots. I did also need a rubber mallet on both frames because the pieces fit very tightly in one particular spot. But overall very well designed and strong. Both frames are silent with zero wiggle. Discarded the old box springs and frames. Everyone is sleeping great and especially no longer waking up every time the other sleeper gets up or rolls over. Excellent support it is like getting a new mattress. It did makes our beds feel very different-more firm and supportive. The old headboard did not fit as the frame is higher and the headboard was the wrong size. Great clearance for storage. I do see under the bed more-if I were picky I would want a new longer bedspread to hide that. The bed doesn’t seem to shift too much although more than on the box spring. Sheets and blankets do come untucked more frequently.Missing star is for trouble with delivery and zip tie thing (only one frame needed them). So pleased with comfort, sturdiness and general quality especially for the price.

This is a nice and sturdy bedframe. I do like it a lot it suits it’s purpose for a guest room has a lot of room underneath the bed so you can store Stuff holds the bed up really well easy to assemble once you figure it out and once you figure it out, you can put it together with nothing

This product arrived quickly and was well packaged. The frame is thick and and is firm once it is set up. The set up was easy with good instructions. There is no need for a mattress base. I am very happy with this product and it was good value for the money.

I absolutely love this bed frame. I have only had it for a couple weeks now but it is extremely sturdy and comfortable!! i am 300+ pounds and it doesn’t creek or shift when i get into bed. it is 18+ tested and I can confirm it is very quiet, which works well because my partner and i have 2 roommates together as well. 10/10 would recommend!
