Review on 🛏️ SimLife Metal Platform Bed Frame: Twin Black Mattress Foundation with Two Headboards, Slat Support – No Box Spring Required by Justin Puranik

7/22/21. I bought this bed for my 12 year old niece for her birthday. Together we watched a YouTube video on how to build a bed. The actual instruction manual was slightly different from the bed used in the video, but we get the gist. The only disappointment we had trouble with was the load-bearing T-bracket that holds the two-piece base together. The pieces should slide into the T bracket. Well, they didn't come in. I had to widen the grooves of the bracket with pliers. We then had to rotate the base plates vertically to fit the T-Bracket. It took a bit of force to get them to slide into the T bracket so my husband had to help. The rest of the assembly was pretty easy. I think the T bracket was just a manufacturing defect. She is so excited to finally get her new "big girl bed". Unfortunately, we found that the actual height under the bed is 11 inches. The size chart on the website says it should be 12.5 inches, which is why we bought it. She really needs storage space in her tiny bedroom. We're so sick of the build, some of the tiny frustrations with some parts that require factory tools, and parts that don't fit easily are just glad to be done that we've decided not to return them. I just need to find new drawers under her bed. Luckily, standard milk crates are 11 inches tall.
