The high rise platform was
"The high rise platform was quite honestly terrible. It was made of cheap metal which bent easily and squeaked horribly. The Metal brackets were poorly manufactured and didn't hold the legs in place. It moved very easily when moving about the bed and sagged horribly in multiple places due to the metal slats coming off their welding. I had to get it initially replaced because of it being delivered in horrible condition. The second set I received was slightly better but still had lots of dings and dents in the metal that I had to push back into place. After nearly a month or 2 of use, I had to get rid of it and buy a more firm platform bed frame made of wood for a cheaper price than the high rise platform AND it is extremely sturdy and quiet. I would never make a purchase for this type of platform again."

it is solid, and seemed
"it is solid, and seemed very durable. The one problem i have is that I move around a lot when I sleep and this seems to slowly loosen the provided wingnuts that hod the support arms, then the bed rocks back and forth a bit. It is still sturdy and doesn't collapse, but it moves back and forth. Luckily it does not squeak or make much sound as if it moves. So I give it a 4 star for being worth its price 100%n"

Skinny Legs Jolt
"This bedframe is a total fail. Both myself and my boyfriend have made numerous attempts to stop this bedframe from jolting with every slight move. We have unassembled and reassembled countless times to try to fix or adjust the legs to stop from wobbling. But the truth of the matter is these legs on this tall frame are too thin for a mattress meant for heavier people."

This was one of the
"This was one of the two recommended foundations for the mattress I purchased; since the other one required the use of a headboard, I opted for this one, which has its pros and cons. Pro: Easy to assemble (I had it done by a handyman and it took him just a short time), no tall raised sides to make changing the bedding difficult, generous amount of open storage space under the bed. Con: The poorly designed legs. Look closely at the image and notice those legs are tapered; they look sleek and modern, but are incompatible with any casters, wheels, or sliders that I know of. Combined with the heavy metallic construction, whenever I move the bed to change the sheet, those legs literally carve a path into the wooden plank floor. At this writing I know of no solution to this problem. Three stars, with some disappointment."

I do not recommend
"Three screws/wingnuts were missing when the platformed arrived. I sent a message requesting replacements but none were sent. I put the platform together without the spacers so we could use it. However, the support arms that are held by the screws/wingnuts, can come off the screws easily. We had to move the bed one evening, and during the night, the platform collapsed. Some of the support arms came off the screws and one penetrated the bottom of our brand new mattress, creating a large hole. I wish I had returned the platform without using it."

This is by far the
"This is by far the worst frame I've ever dealt with. I'm only 125 lb and it squeaks sooooo much just when I'm getting into it. It's awful. I've placed padding below it, bought additional bolts, tightened them like crazy, used WD-40 on the joints, it's still SO squeaky. I've always had metal bed frames, so I'm baffled at how this one can be so much worse. I don't know what to do. It's awful."

So Far So Good
"PROS: 1. Height is good after adding mattress 2. Room underneath for storage 3. Metal seems tough and long lasting 4. Price is fairly reasonable 5. Sleeping on it was pretty good CONS: 1. A few of the center holes didn't quite line up with each other. 2. Skinny legs 3. The metal construction can destroy the underside of a mattress. 4. Screws holding it together will need re-tightening as they have a tendency to loosen. 5. It does make a tiny bit of noise, but tolerable. I plan to move it to my guestroom in the future and order another platform style."

It doesn't fit the split
"It doesn't fit the split California King mattresses out to the edges. There is about 2 to 3 inches overhanging the bed frame."

Sturdy right now, but nuts keep loosening
"Some of the smaller bars are bending already on both sides, and the nuts keep loosening so we have to retighten them every few days or the bed collapses. Worried about long-term use. The reason we selected this frame was because it's supposed to work for up to 1500lbs, and us together is 600lbs (350 on one side and 250 on other). Time will tell if it holds up. It is very comfy, but again worried about durability."

Terrible foundation
"The high-rise foundation is the worst base I’ve ever bought. It is cheap and not made well. I have two. The queen size is fine, but the king had problems with from the start. In the middle of the night last night it fell apart and we are now holding it together with zip ties."
