Product Description
The Nomad is made of smooth, clean, unfinished poplar hardwood, not pine. Many of the pine frames on the market have a rough splintery feel. Pine averages 18% moisture content, our hardwood is kiln dried to 8%, which means it's far less likley to split or warp. This pure untreated wood is preferred by many consumers seeking a natural, hypo-allergenic alternative to todays chemical laden products. We have been selling furniture since 1984 and these are the finest quality unfinished bed frames we have seen. *Assembly required.

 Sturdy, simple bed November 4, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
When ordering this bed, I became excited at all the 5-star reviews. I was hoping mine would be as well, but the bed was a bit more difficult to put together than I was led to believe (needed both my teenage son and daughter to give me a hand). One of the screws did not line up with the metal dowel, so the bed is put together minus one screw. Other than that, the bed is sturdy and attractive with its simple lines. Height: 14-1/2".

I am normally hesitant to buy products when I think the shipping price might make the whole purchase more expensive than just buying it straight from the store, but this was definitely worth it. Even with the shipping, it's still the most inexpensive "platform" bed out there. The package arrived unbelievably fast, the assembly instructions were very clear, and the height was perfect foif you're using just a mattress. If you're buying this bed, make sure you have someone help you with the assembly - I did it by myself and it cost me an extra hour. Overall, you get more for what you pay for.

I am usually hesistant to order bed frames sight unseen, but because of the reviews (and the price) I took a chance with this product.br /br /Short and sweet: high quality, great finish, perfect fight.br /br /First thing I noticed was the screws screw into metal, not wood. Nice! The finish was very smooth and was ready for staining/sealing out of the box. I decided to finish it with Danish Oil for a natural finish. Looks fantastic. All holes lined up perfectly. All pieces fit together correctly, and everything is level. The quality for the price is A+. It does stand tall.....taller than my old metal frame/box spring/mattress combo. As a matter of fact, it is tall enough for me to easily climb under (6'0", 180lbs), but I like it that way. I was able to assemble it by myself in 30 minutes. TIP: use a box to hold up one end while you work on the opposite end.br /br /The only thing I would warn others about is the gap in the middle is wider than shown in the picture. It didn't matter to me since I was laying down some plywood for a memory foam mattress, but I wanted to let others know.br /br /I saw much cheaper (not to mention heavier) particle board platform beds locally in shops for $250+ and none matched the quality of this frame.
Great purchase November 30, 2007

Putting this together was much easier than I'd expected. Legs are 1 X 3, not 2 X 4. It is at a convenient height from the floor to accomodate under-bed storage. Wood is relatively lightweight, and the edges are rounded, not sharp or splintery or warped. (Not a single splinter in my fingers during assembly!) Screws are joined to other metal hardware, not directly to the wood, so if you take the bed apart and reassemble it someday, the wood in the holes won't disintegrate. Best of all, it's made in USA. Contrary to the photo, the Full size has a longitudinal gap of several inches down the center, to accomodate tightening the hardware. Therefore I recommend a foundation (like plywood) for use under a memory foam mattress. Instructions recommend tightening the hardware after 30-90 days, and that's true. This sturdy bed is a great deal.
