CoutureSleep 9 Inch KD Wooden Foundation - Queen

Pros: Idea is awsome. Cover didnt rip. Doesnt make sounds like metal boxsprings.Cons: didn't come with a full sealed cover as one of the instruction videos online stats. (No under dust cover to keep dust and spiders out that zips shut) wood slats were warped. The end pieces were warped about 45 degrees. The pre drilled holes are not accurately drilled. (They would hit the edge of the wood that it should be screwed into causing the wood to split or miss the wood completely.) The wood was very brittle. (Seemed like these were made of wood with the consistance of foam. If you were unlucky enough to get a piece with a knothole in the middle, you will most likely break that piece just with your fingers.)Thoughts...This should not be sold more than 70$If your company can not accurately drill screw holes, let each individual drill their own holes so the wood doesnt split with they try to correct the company's mistake. Use the complete zip cover for undercarriage dust and critters. Just sell the plans so that people can create the same product with a better quality build. Charge a more reasonable price for a poor implemented idea. Just have better quality control and set your approval standards higher.

Unlike other wood frames on Amazon, you cannot put this frame together without the use of power tools. There is no separate top and bottom piece (as the picture above suggests) that connects the two side & center rails together. You'll have to carefully align each slat and screw it into the sides and center rails to put this frame together. Some pieces of woods were either warped or chipped so it made it more difficult to alighn the pieces. Once carefully aligned and every piece is screwed in, the frame is okay. The picture of the product is different from the actual product (at least for a Queen size frame that I received).

several of the cross slats were cracked and warped, the end pieces were not cut very accurately, had some gaps at the corners. I expected better quality.

Our slats arrived and were an inch too short so they couldn't be attached to both sides. We threw away the slats and had to make our own. The wood was also terrible quality- splintered, bowed, dripping sap, etc. This is absolutely not worth what we paid for it.

Overall worked as expected. Wish there was a way to order more slats. But otherwise perfect. I weigh around 400lbs and it holds me well as well as my golden retriever and fiance. I was looking thru these and this one seems to have the most durability.

Don't know how this compares to other foundations, but it's fine by me. Did not take much time to assemble, no squeaking or any other issues. Planks are hard wood and may crack if you try to put a screw in w/o pre-drilled hole. They are pre-drilled, just not super consistent, so one or two were too close to the edge of a plank. But this is not electronics, so I don't expect precision. Once assembled and cover is on, can't complain on the functionality.

This was very easy to put together. So practical if you want to have a queen bed on the second floor of an older home. It fits up the stairs and around the corners. Then we set it up and put the mattress on top. Very sturdy and perfect for our situation.

The concept is good. The product itself horrible the wood was splintered, some pieces were rotted. I was unable to put it together because the wood split. I actually ended up throwing it in the garbage.
