Really Good Value
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.zanedy2 years agoThis is a REALLY GOOD VALUE for an upholstered frame. Nothing else like it in this price point. Everything similar is twice the price. The only thing to be aware of that the sales people didn't recommend is, if you are also buying a new bed with it, do NOT get a BOX SPRING. The bed will sit too high off the floor. My bed is over 3 feet high. Get a buckboard instead. I wish the salespeople would have recommended that. I worked with one sales person for the bed, and then he handed me off to ... another for the mattress, and neither mentioned it.

Great Bed for a new family
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.NewDadInOrange3 years agoWe bought this bed to replace our old bed which had wooden framing and a gap between the headboard and the mattress. We have an 8 month old baby and sometimes she needs to sleep with us. She moves a lot in her sleep and we were afraid that she would fall from the bed or hit her had to the wooden frame. We purchased this bed to upgrade from queen to king size and to address the other issues. It is working perfect for us. We will see if it still does with the baby number 2 if we have another ... one. I guess we will still have room in this bed.

SOLID!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Adam2 years agoThere are many upholstered beds that feel like they are going to fall apart after you assemble them. This is not one of them. The assembly was a bit tedious and time consuming but the end product is solid and sturdy enough to park a Jeep on the bed. The material and craftsmanship of the bed is top notch and just as good if not better than beds that cost thousands of dollars. My only issue is if I ever sell my house the bed will have to convey with the sale because it won't be very easy to take apart.

Love it
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.OldSchoolCountry2 months agoLove the style & color. The size is perfect, as I didn't want a tall headboard & footboard. The only problem is the middle board that holds the the box spring is a little to high. Which causes the middle of the bed to be a bit high.

Beautiful & reasonably priced bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Steph3 weeks agoI absolutely love the color of the wood on this bed. I loved it so much that I got the matching Desk Chest. This bed is reasonably priced compared to other furniture stores and feels like such a higher quality. 100% would recommend.

Love this bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Dibe9 months agoLove this bed. Looks great in my master bedroom along with the matching night stand tables. The color is more gray than brown, but love the rustic/natural wood finish. I live on the coast so this works great with the decor I'm trying to develop in my home. I have a 14 inch height mattress on the bed with no base board, doesn't quite look like a platform because of the really thick mattress I'm using. But still looks great!

Sleek and Sturdy Bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.asadun5 months agoThis is exactly what I wanted. I'm using this with a Loom and Leaf queen-sized mattress without a box spring, and the bed frame doesnt shake or shift no matter how hard I twist and turn in my sleep. There is a good amount of space underneath that I'm using for storing bedsheets and towels vacuum-sealed in space-saver bags. I chose this bed frame over the ones with built-in storage drawers because I really wanted to utilize under-bed storage space to the max, and this bed frame is pretty ideal ... for that. The headboard is sleek and minimalistic, and goes with any kind of decor, or even in the absence of any decor at all. Would recommend to a friend.

Great look! Simple and clean!
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Barritz2 years agoMy wife and I went into the showroom looking for a bed with some space underneath to use for storage; we looked at every bed in the store and while many had built-in storage, and some were low to the floor, the sleek look and clearance of the Alton grabbed our eye and found its way into our bedroom. The contemporary throwback style and simplicity of the bed really had us sold. The only qualm we have is even though we purchased a queen size bed and have a queen size mattress, there is a slight ... gap of 2-3 inches on the sides and end. We recommend you definitely lay your mattress as close to the headboard as possible to prevent pillows slipping into that gap. It is the style of some platform beds but it seems like it could shave off an inch on the sides and end and the bed will be a little more "tucked in" so to speak. With a comforter or bed skirt draped down you can easily bump your foot or shin on the end posts, so please be careful. Overall we love the bed and are happy with our purchase. We're definitely planning on picking up some more of the Alton pieces to round out the room's look.

Great bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Chels1 month agoI love this bed. It’s simple but very solid. It was exactly what I was looking for to go with the decor of my room. I do feel like it was a little over priced for the simplicity of it but I really loved the color of the wood.

Quality and Style!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Chryn3 years agoWe bought A Kit-Allen Queen Panel Bed for our guest room in our vacation home and we loved the style, color and quality design so much we bought a second one for our teen daughters room. We bought the Relaxation Queen Matress for both beds also. Guest rave about the good quality of sleep they get when staying with us, and our daughter says she feels like she gets to sleep on a cloud every night. For the guest bed we bought white bedding with light gray throw pillows and for our daughters room we ... bought light blue bedding with cream colored throw pillows. Both looks are so inviting and relaxing. We could not be happier with this purchase!

Nice bed frame
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Tanner3 years agoHappy with the bed. Although the first time we moved it, one of the center support legs fell off. When we looked at it, we think the delivery/install guys may have taken a short cut putting the bed together. We were able to fix it without too much difficulty. It is a nice basic bed.

Found our perfect bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.llede4 weeks agoWe were looking for a sturdy bed that did not have an outrageously tall headboard. We visited four different furniture stores and found this one. We picked it up from the store and assembled it ourselves in about 2 hours. The instructions are easy to follow and all hardware is included. The drawers were already assembled and glide very smoothly. We're very happy with the quality, price and look of this bed.

Exceeded my expectations!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.LP1311 months agoI usually purchase my furniture from Pottery Barn or Restoration Hardware; however I didn't want to spend 2000.00 on the bed alone and decided to "look" at Living Spaces. I am so glad that I did. The furniture was styled to my taste and the price was a fraction of what I would have spent. I am very pleased with my purchase and was able to get 2 night stands and a dresser for what I would have spent on the bed alone. I will definitely buy from Living Spaces again!

Stylish bed
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Geng2 years agoThe color of this bed looks even better in my bedroom than in the showroom, very calming and elegant. I also find the design of the frame very stylish. It would be even better if the headboard can be a bit lower, but it looks just fine. Wood is very solid. While this makes a solid bed, it also makes it very heavy. Now the wood floor around it starts to make a bit of squeaking noise some times when I walk on it. The drawers' inside boards look a bit thin but should hardly affect anything.

Quality product, worth every dollar.
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.movetosuppress3 months agoI recently purchased this bed kit for a new residence my wife and I just got done moving into. The product is heavy, you will need at least two persons to help. The process to put together the bed was tedious. But, with the right tools, the process wasn't too gruesome. I would recommend this bed. My wife and I are happy with the bed and its quality. Just a retightening of the screws after a month or so should keep the frame sturdy.

Great purchase!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Senia2 years agoThis item didn't have many reviews so I was a little weary buying it during the sale; however this turned out to be the best bed frame I've purchased. The price was great and the bed is sturdy. We purchased the CA king sized because my husband is very tall. The headboard stand tall too and with our box Springs underneath our mattress the bed stands at a perfect height for us. We also got this delivered and the delivery guys brought this and built it within 25minutes. Definitely recommend this product.

Great bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Lady6 months agoPerfect bed for a small guest bedroom where a queen size bed is needed.

I'm very happy with the purchase,

Magnolia Home Line Rocks!!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.educator2 months agoWe really love this bed - the exact look we wanted for our modern farmhouse and it is solid, isn't squeaky, and has had no problems at all. We loved buying many pieces of the Magnolia Homes line of furniture at Living Spaces for our new house because they have their furniture delivery set up so that they come and set up / put together everything and take away all packaging! Such a good experience compared to some of the other places we ordered from.

Great Bed Frame!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Lyndsay0282 months agoI fell in love with the frame as soon as I saw it in person in the Monrovia showroom. I have always been a fan of Joanna Gaines, and the Magnolia collection did not disappoint. It is built very well and feels very sturdy. The rustic/modern look is something I aspire to with my home design and I am pleasantly pleased with this purchase. I had it professionally installed and have owned the frame a little over a month now. Again, it feels very durable and well manufactured. Would definitely recommend purchasing.

Beautiful Functional Bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.chicinsouthcity6 months agoI saw the Kincaid bed displayed in store and immediately fell in love with it. The bed was exactly in the style I wanted and it's beautifully constructed. I especially love the pull-out drawers as they're quite big and can hold blankets, extra pillows etc. and are so handy. This feature is great for a smaller space. I also purchased 2 matching night stands and now each night I look forward to bed time. So happy with this purchase!

This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Anonymous7 months agoThe bed is quite purposeful and stylish. I purchased this bed at my 8 year old sons request.

Platform Bed Where Form also has added Function
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.DaninAZ3 weeks agoI was looking at platform beds for months and was pretty determined to get the exact one I wanted from the many that are out there. This one works with my house style and isn't so modern or industrial that it will age and end up looking like a fashion statement. Eastern King that I chose has a nice subtle rustic style look (think more Norwegian)..sinple, wide, stylish and functional (the storage areas along the foot board area and rails is great for actually using it as storage adding a bit ... more style to fill the space of this great bed. It looks exactly as it is presented and is as sturdy as it looks as well. No complaints here, great build quality and unique modern look that is more low key.

Stylish Design
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.LadyBrit3 years agoI am very happy with my purchase of the Alton bed. I needed a black framed bed and many of the others on the market are brown/black. The overall design is modern with clean lines and it looks great in my daughter's bedroom. The height is perfect and there is enough room underneath to put storage boxes. The wood and paint finish is high quality and, all in all, this bed is excellent value for money.

Terrific purchase
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Bradford1 month agoVery clean lines and fits well. I wasn’t looking for a new bed frame but we walked past it and immediately turned around and went back to it. The clean timeless lines fit well with an eclectic mix of Asian and African art, mid century furniture, and family antiques. Very sturdy and doesn’t “wobble” and the delivery was easy and seamless. I think I could easily become a “Living Spaces” addict!

Amazing Look
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Wolfie2 years agoWe moved recently and needed a new bed. We have moved into a modern new apartment complex and wanted our home to replicate the moderne feel of our surroundings. We liked the look of this bed immediately. We went for the European King as I'm a bit of a restless sleep and didn't want to disturb my wife. The size is great as well as the look. It was super simple to put together and has given us the modern highend look we wanted. The color is great as its neutral and any color bedding compliments it ... nicely.....really pleased with this bed :)

Gorgeous bed for great price!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.GTE42 years agoI saw this bed on display in one of the store locations while I was couch shopping and was immediately drawn to it. I wanted an upholstered bed with a very tall headboard and was concerned this might not be as tall as I would like, but decided to bite the bullet and get it anyway. I couldn't be happier! The bed itself is very sturdy, the color is beautiful and the headboard is perfect height. Wonderful, expensive looking bed for the price. Only downside (for others) might be the lack of storage ... room available underneath the bed - it is very low to the ground.

Extremely great value!
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.MLinGlendale5 years agoAs more of a short-term bed solution, I thought $300 for a headboard and footboard was a great deal and would get us by for a few years. After building the bed, I was blown away at how stable the entire bed is. When you sit on it, the frame doesn't shift of creek; it's so solid. Best of all, the bed looks substantial and looks really great in the space. As a real estate professional and interior designer, I would absolutely recommend this bed - it's good for just about every pocketbook.

Dalton Panel Bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.GrampaTim6 years agoI tired of two nice queen mattresses on metal frames, so I visited the Living Spaces store and spotted this bed. I purchased two and transported them home in the back of my van. The beds are solid, and easily assembled. They look nice and fit in well with my family heirlooms ( early American hand crafted furniture ). I see no reason why these beds won't last for many years, and look just as nice with age as they do new. Most people worry about assembly. I opened the boxes in the back of the ... van, and carried the pieces to the upstairs bedroom. The headboard is in two pieces which attach using 4 bolts on each side. It is quick and easy. Then the headboard attaches to the footboards with two side rails ( well built, and solid. Finally, a series of cross planks are set in place and screwed down quickly. Add your box spring and mattress set and you are done ! I happened to use a full box spring, so the bed is high. Most people enjoy that. However, you could use a thin box spring and keep the actual mattress lower. Either way the bed is solid and attractive.

Just what we needed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Smooooth4 years agoRecently we purchased a new cal king mattress set (from another store). While the wife & I were awaiting the arrival of the mattresses I decided to look online for platform frames to replace out metal bed frame. The old metal frame slides around to much, especially with laminate wood floors. After looking at the store, they have a HUGE selection of inexpensive platform frames. The wife & I decided on this one for our bed mainly to keep our expense as low as possible, however for the price you ... really can't beat it. This is very solid and well built. It does not move at all or slide around.

Excellent Buy! .Great size, feels and looks high quality..priced is amazing
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Pjsluckyday5 years agoWe looked around for a long time and even for a lot more money...this bed frame, headboard and baseboard not only fit all our criteria...looks great, is 7 inches off the floor so space to store things underneath...low footboard, is below mattress ( so our dog can't chew on ha ha......can have a bed skirt, but nice wood on the sides makes it unnecessary....biggest issue we had with other beds was legs are right at or near corners of baseboard, so often when my mate walked around bed to closet he ... caught his toe...ouch...these legs are about 4 inches in from edge.....no more screeching pain... in the morning yahoooo...bed feels as strong as our old Ethan Allen very very pleased...would recommend and you will not believe the price! Honestly...absolutely the best buy in San Diego ...or Orange County....we looked that far...work in real estate, so see a lot of bedroom furniture...!!!! Grab this deal....worth more than it costs pj

Bad footboard, too dark, slightly damaged
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.WillieD3 years agoThe footboard has sharp edges and I've hit my legs many times trying to get around the bed - VERY PAINFUL. I should have chosen a bed without that issue. The Espresso color is TOO DARK once I saw it in person. It looks darker than in the photo. Also, my bed frame was slightly damaged, which I learned involved a small 10% discount or refund option. But the price is good.

Love This Bed
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Coliptt8 months agoWe were getting our first king bed after having a queen bed for more than 30 years. Our "master" bedroom is quite small and some of those king bed frames were massive! I love the look of "sort of" antique and I kept going back to this bed. I'm glad we got it. We were surprised that each metal "slat" had its own little feet that helped distribute the weight. What a great idea. Even with the mattress and foundation we chose there was no fear of it not holding the weight. We put "sliders" ... under each support and this bed is easy to move when we need to move it, but not just sliding around the room. It fits well in our small master, basically with two side tables we are wall to wall bed, but it is just what we wanted and expected.

Fabulous looking bed!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.CarolA3 months agoI bought this bed when I decided to change out a queen-size bed for a king in my guest room. My sister had previously purchased the queen size of this Knox frame -- it was stunning. I bought the king, picked it up at the Colton (Rialto) warehouse and put it together easily. It has transformed my room into a homey, comfy retreat. So beautiful. I just love this bed. Also you cannot find a bed with this look and quality for a better price.

Sturdy and stylish bed frame for the price!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Elise2124 months agoI really love this bed frame! For the price, the metal frame is very heavy and solid. This was a second bed frame I purchased from Living Spaces and it was less expensive by half compared to another metal frame bed I bought last year and I love this one so much more, I ended up putting the other bed in the guest room and took this one for myself! I measured and I did require a box spring on this frame, just an fyi.

Beautiful Bed Frame
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Anne2 months agoBeautiful headboard and sturdy construction. It arrived right at the beginning of my delivery window, and installation took no time at all. The only thing I think it's important to know is that there are only 3 slats on the bottom of the frame. This bed definitely needs a box spring and/or more slats added before setting a mattress on it.

Beds and Bed Frames Buying Guide
The bed is one of the most important pieces of furniture in your house. After all, it’s where you spend about one-third of your life if you get the recommended eight hours of sleep per night. It’s also the focal point of your bedroom, so making sure your bed looks great and provides significant comfort is critical for your quality of life. We have an excellent selection of beds for any decorating style. Once you measure your room and choose your mattress and bed size, you’ll have a wide range of styles, colors and materials to choose from. Whether you love the traditional look of natural wood or prefer a plush upholstered headboard, you’re sure to find the perfect finishing touch for your bedroom when you browse our collection of beds.
Traditional Bed Styles
For older, historic homes or anyone who loves a bit of formality, a traditional bed is an excellent choice.
- Metal Beds: A metal bed frame offers a classic look that works well in Victorian rooms as a contrast to floral fabrics and wallpaper. It also works well in modern, industrial lofts where metal is often placed against exposed beams and brick. Poster Beds: Wood beds have always been popular, but the most sought-after versions are often those with intricately carved posts at each corner. Posts can be round or square, and some are even tall enough to form a full canopy bed.
- Panel Beds: Another common woodworking technique for beds is the addition of raised or recessed panels in the headboard and footboard. This adds texture and interest to the bed, and it’s a great choice for transitional decor.
Modern Bed Styles
If you live in a more contemporary home or love modern design, you’ll want to choose a bed that looks fresh and hip.
- Upholstered Beds: Contemporary beds are all about comfort, and a padded, tufted headboard allows you to sit up for reading on screen time with lots of extra cushioning. The most on-trend upholstered beds are completely fabric covered, giving them a cohesive look.
- Mixed Materials: Beds that combine two types of wood, mix wood and upholstery, or mix wood planks with metal edging offer a fresh new take on traditional materials.
- Platform Beds: Modern lines tend to be low to the floor, and a platform bed skips the legs (or keeps them very short) to provide this sleek look. Platform beds are a great choice for easy cleaning as well.
