Zinus 14" Metal Smartbase Heavy-Duty Bed Frame Foundation, Twin

Okay so this is the most perfect bed base I've literally ever dealt with. I cannot believe this is not the standardized requirement for all bed bases. I have some weird hangups about box springs, so I knew I was in the market for a platform-style bed. I didn't want to deal with something super huge like an all-wood construction, and slatted wood stuff from ikea felt like it'd be too flimsy. I'm not planning on living in my apartment for the rest of my life, and I wanted something I could pack up and take with me. Enter the Casey Metal Frame. First, setting it up took maybe 15 minutes, tops, and I did it by myself. Second, the height is incredible. The ability to store things under my bed is *amazing.* I live in a studio loft and storage is at a premium, so the extra space under the bed is incredible. Last and most importantly -- this thing is solid as all getout. It doesn't creak, it doesn't squeak, it doesn't wiggle. It feels as sturdy as laying the mattress on the floor itself. I absolutely love the heck out of this bed base, and I feel like it gets a lot of airflow which I hope will help extend the life of my mattress. As a bonus, my roomba has zero problems cleaning under it as well. So yeah. I love it. It's solid and I have no complaints.
