Better Homes & Gardens Juliet Queen Boucle Platform Bed, Ivory

Very nice bed frame. Looks good and is sturdy. I personally don't like how bed frames now days make the bed sit so low. So, I ended up using the frame and putting my current metal frame and box spring inside the bed frame instead of the wood slats. This way the bed sits up a little higher. Another option would have been to buy a short 5 inch box spring to put on top of the wood slats. I went with what I had on hand, but wanted to give the idea to others.

This bed is absolutely gorgeous in my guest room and an excellent value for the money. The bed is a bit short for my preferences but I found some 3” wooden bed risers that bring it to a good height and look like they are part of the original design. I paired this bed with the Better Homes and Gardens velvet curtains and the room is just beautiful. Assembly was pretty smooth with the exception of installing the support boards. What helped us is loosening the bolts attaching to the headboard and footboard, attaching the support boards while pushing the side rail inward, then tightening the head and footboard. I definitely recommend only tightening the head and footboard about halfway until the very end to avoid this challenge.
