Baxton Studio Hirst Platform Bed, King, Grey

Great bed for the price. The light beige is a nice color. It’s sturdy and easy to assemble.

I absolutely loved this bed frame. Very easy to install and definitely way worth your money. Other beds like this one are very expensive this one is ver beautiful and the quality surpassed my expectations.

I was eyeing this bed for the longest time because I was worried about the quality of the bed despite all of the excellent reviews on here. I thought to myself, "for the price, the quality of this bed has got to be subpar!" I'm happy that I am mistaken.I used Amazon's home service to assemble the bed, so assembly wasn't an issue for me. But from watching the bed being assemble, it's not difficult at all. For one person to assemble the bed, it might take you around 1.5 hours. But if you have help, then maybe around an hour.The only thing that I dislike about the bed is actually the base. I was hoping that the wood they use for the base where you insert the slats would be made of hardwood, but they use mdf for that. This means you have to be really gentle when inserting/plugging the slats. If, for whatever reason, you have to unplug a slat, you can expect the wood to chip (which is exactly what happened to me).I use a W Hotel King Size Mattress and the bed is too large for the mattress. But I guess it's better for the bed to be too large than too small. Not much of an issue for me because once I put on the bed sheet and comforter over the mattress, the gaps won't be too visible.This bed is an excellent value for the price that I paid. I did find this bed on a different website being sold for twice than what I paid for it on here and that website is showing plenty of excellent reviews as well so I know plenty of people had paid double what I paid for this bed. FYI, at the time of my purchase, the king size was actually cheaper than the queen size.No buyer's remorse here!

I love the style of this bed and the gray color is beautiful. It looks very modern and is versatile in its ability to suit a varying range of colors and styles, some grays lend themselves to a particular set of colors but this bed in the light gray is almost a tweed style so it can mix and match more easily.As other reviewed stated, the bed does look very elegant and expensive. The tufted headboard and nailhead trim around the edges give it a modern and sophisticated look. We were able to put it together in about an hour and the process was simple, definitely easier than i had expected and the instructions were clear.HOWEVER, as much as I do like the color and overall appearance of this bed, there are a few things that I wish had been different. If you are a somewhat picky person, or pay a lot of attention to detail, this bed might not be for you....I did not like how low this bed is to the ground, there are only a couple inches between the bed frame and the floor. I would personally prefer my bed to have slightly longer legs to raise it off the ground more. The bed itself can be raised with a box spring, but the frame itself will still be very low to the ground.The nailhead trim looks good from a distance, but once you look up close you can see that they are not individually placed, but rather a strip of nail heads that are intermittently nailed into place everybody four or five nailheads. This gives it a strange appearance when you look up close because one of the nailheads appears to look different than the rest where it is attached to the frame.Lastly, make sure your mattress is an exact fit to the dimensions of this bed frame. Our mattress, although it is a standard queen size, is just a little too small near the corners and leaves an unsightly gap.

I bought this bed for my wife as a surprise because she liked the style. My wife is from Germany and likes lower, modern, platform beds. While it isn't the style or height of a bed i'd prefer, she is quite happy with it, which is the most important thing. As a disabled veteran my back hurts quite often and I prefer a bed at a decent height that I don't have to climb out of. Another important thing to me was a quiet bed that didn't creak and rattle as we were, well, you know, testing the hinges. Compared to our previous bed frame, this is sturdy, comfortable and quiet thus far. The material around the edges of the bed is nice and attractive looking, and the headboard is quite comfortable as well. I have actually sat and read in bed, with a couple pillows and my shoulders up against the headboard, for the first time in years; I mentioned to my wife how comfortable the material and cushioning are.Would I buy it again...yes. Only bummer is I wish it was a tad bit higher so the Roomba vacuum could fit underneath it to vacuum. Though I know this is an easy fix and I could have figured that out if I really wanted to before buying. The shipping was fast, easy and on time. Great experience. Very easy to assemble. Have since bought a boxspring that got the mattress higher than before when we weren't using a box spring. See images for example of the bed in our room, with and without box spring. You can see that with our tempur-pedic mattress only, the bed was quite low, which some will like. With the box spring the bed is 9" higher. Still not as high as some beds, but just perfect for us.
