DreamCloud Bamboo Platform Bed Frame

BuildWood

In shortA tool-free bamboo platform on hovering centre legs for a single or one lighter sleeper on a double; heavier bodies and couples on a king should look elsewhere. Read the review

* Outgoing links are monetised

What our reviewers found

Pros

  • Owners broadly back DreamCloud's claim of a quick, tool-free build of about 20 minutes.
  • Natural and Walnut bamboo finishes give you a choice of exposed-wood looks.
  • The matching bamboo headboard is optional, so you can buy the platform on its own.
  • DreamCloud publishes overall dimensions for every size, which read as outside measurements, so you can check the footprint against your room.

Cons

  • Recurring owner reports of cracked centre legs and snapped middle beams rule it out for heavier sleepers and couples on a king.
  • Some owners describe a loose headboard that moves and squeaks.
  • The floating centre legs are designed to hover slightly above the floor and, in DreamCloud's words, only engage when needed.
  • No weight limit, slat count or slat spacing is published, and the frame's return terms aren't on the returns page.

If you'd rather see your bed frame than hide it under a valance, the DreamCloud Bamboo Platform Bed Frame gives you exposed wood in a low outline, finished in Natural or Walnut. It sits in a base range that also runs to a steel platform, an upholstered headboard frame and an ottoman.

It works on a single, or a double with only one lighter-built sleeper in it. Avoid it if you're heavier, or if two of you want a king or super king, because owners keep reporting broken centre supports and DreamCloud publishes no weight limit. I rate DreamCloud's mattresses, but Nectar sells this identical frame, so judge it as a frame. Easy assembly is lovely, but it won't make up for a centre rail you end up propping on old books.

The floating feet leave me unconvinced about its support

The hovering support legs are my biggest reservation about this frame. DreamCloud's diagram calls them floating support legs, "designed to hover slightly and only engage when needed". In practice the centre legs stand just off the floor until the middle of the frame dips far enough to meet them. On a double or wider I want feet planted under the centre rail from the first night.

One owner describes the support as three wooden pegs that "aren't long enough and fold". The hovering is deliberate, so a foot clear of the floor isn't an assembly mistake.

The listing gives no slat count, no spacing and no weight limit. DreamCloud's mattress warranty requires slats no more than 9cm (3.5in) apart. I'd want closer to 7cm (under 3in), since a wide gap is my first suspect when a mattress starts to dip. Get the spacing and the weight limit from DreamCloud in writing before you pay.

Step down the range to DreamCloud's upholstered Headboard Bed Frame and its listing names two centre legs and a sprung slatted base, which is more than the bamboo listing tells you about its middle.

Broken middle supports matter more than the compliments about its looks

On a big bed, the reviews would stop me. They're shared with Nectar's listing and come mostly from American buyers, so read them for themes rather than UK fit. Unhappy owners describe cracked middle legs, a centre beam that snapped or supports that never reached the floor. A few have propped the middle up themselves, which is more upkeep than you should accept from a new bed.

Happy owners, and there are far more of them, describe a sturdy platform that looks good. The breakages aren't only from heavier owners, though. One couple of average height and weight say their centre poles cracked in the first week. With hovering legs and no published weight limit, I'd keep this frame to a single or one lighter sleeper on a double.

Further down the list come a loose, squeaking headboard and some creaking from the frame, which would trouble anyone who wakes easily. I always start with the middling reviews: that's where someone who likes the look enough to keep it explains what went wrong underneath.

The quick build is this bamboo frame's strongest selling point

Owners back the build claim most convincingly: DreamCloud puts it at 20 minutes with no tools, and plenty agree. Twenty minutes is one iced coffee, whatever the weather. One owner's slats wouldn't line up with their holes, even on a replacement set, a couple of others had joints that took some forcing, and one had to sand the headboard down before it would seat, so leave yourself some slack.

DreamCloud also advertises "Japanese Joinery" with "No Screws or Nails". That describes how the bamboo pieces lock together, though several owners mention the centre legs screw in.

The frame-only option needs a careful fit check

Measure your room against the overall footprint: the king is 209.8cm (82.6in) long and 159.8cm (62.9in) wide. DreamCloud lists every size as 30.5cm (12in) high and quotes the headboard separately, but it gives no height to the slats, so ask for that figure before you judge how high you'll sit.

Buy it frame-only and a couple of owners say the empty headboard slots leave a gap between the mattress and the wall. The "Free Shipping & Returns" badge needs a written explanation too, because the returns page only covers mattresses and bedding.

For a low wooden platform from a high-street retailer, the Annika Wooden Low Rise Bed Frame from Dreams sits on solid slats and solid wooden legs. Dreams lists a two-person build of about an hour and no weight limit, so ask the same centre questions there.

What to buy instead

For a shared double or anything bigger, the Origin Timber Wooden Bed Frame is the one I'd save for. It's solid Canadian timber on FlexiSlats, from a brand I rate, and Origin's frame warranty runs several times longer than this one's. The catch is a much higher price, and owners say its tool-free build goes better with a rubber mallet and a helper. Keep the bamboo frame for a single, or a double slept on by one lighter person.

I ordered the bamboo platform bed frame in September, and the initial experience was excellent. Ordering was smooth, delivery was on time, and assembly was incredibly easy, which I appreciated. The materials felt high-quality and nice to the touch. However, I noticed one issue right away: the headboard simply slots into the frame and has some noticeable movement, which made it less stable than expected. Despite pushing the bed frame all the way to the wall, there was still some movement, so I added stickers to the wall to minimize the shifting. Unfortunately, after about 1. 5 months, the bed frame started squeaking, and the headboard made even more noise. This was not just annoying for us but even disturbed our neighbors. While the initial impression was positive, the result has been disappointing, as the bed frame and headboard are essentially unusable now due to the noise and instability. I plan to explore the 360-night trial, but as of now, I feel the product wasn't worth the price. A cheaper alternative might have had the same result. I'll update this review after I've resolved the trial process.

I actually have five (yes 5!) Nectar platform beds in my homes. This Queen Bamboo Platform Bed Frame is the nicest looking but the absolute worst when it comes to design. I also purchased the upholstered headboard and the whole be setup looks amazing. It is super easy to assemble and the wood is very well done and nice looking, but the under bed center supports belong on a $99 dollar store offering. I can't believe they do not reach the ground and are not adjustable. I have two Aurora platforms and the center supports are substantial. Heavy duty and support a lot of weight. I read the reviews about the center supports failing and immediately added four additional adjustable bed frame support legs. I have no concerns about the center support breaking off now as they are not doing anything to support the slats/middle rail. If Nectar truly wants to sell this bed and have 5+ star reviews, they need to revisit the flimsy 1" legs provided and upgrade them to something better engineered. I would not recomment this bed without DIY modifications or Nectar providing a better product. 3 stars.

I just want to start off by giving the Nectar customer service team kudos. I had originally ordered a different frame and was told there were delays with shipping, which was understandable. I eventually got a call from a rep with their apologies and was offered a nicer frame (same size) for no extra charge! When I received the frame, I was impressed by the quality and how easy it was to our together (took just about an hour with help). The only complaint I do have is the structure of the frame. The original one I chose has the mattress frame sunken in more with a lip to hold the mattress in place. This alternate one had the sides flushed against the slats and the overall width was a few inches longer than my mattress, which currently causes it to shift throughout the night and exposes the slats on the side - which doesn't cause any problem besides aesthetic preferences. Overall, great experience and product. Would recommend to friends and seriously considering purchasing the matching headboard as well!

To be frank with you, we wish the bed would be of better quality. We own a Thuma and we needed to upsize to a king size bed but wanted to save some money so we chose the Nectar Bamboo Platform Bed. We got the pillow headboard with it, which we think it's very sturdy and well made. However, the bed frame itself is not that solid and just in general, it falls short of being a sturdy bed. Even with the mattress on top of it, the bed still moves. With the Thuma, we had no problem with it moving. Another problem, which we are not sure if it is the bed frame or the mattress, is the fit of the mattress on the bed. There are gaps and it just doesn't stay in place. Also! The middle "legs" are floating in the air, they don't even reach the floor, which apparently we were told that that's how it is. Overall, it is a good bed, nice color, and good value for what you pay for, but having had the Thuma, we probably will save up the money and get the Thuma instead.

Bought two queen beds. They arrived within 7-10 days in two boxes for each bed. It was delivered right at our doorstep. When we opened it couple of pieces had small cracks but not enough for me to decide to return. Assembling was straightforward. Please note that the middle support does not touch the floor. The customer service said that was by design and allowed the mattress to settle. The headboards had fabric that was sewn into it. I would have preferred a removable cover to allow for easier cleaning. Inserting the headboard required so brute force to push into the two slots. The headboard seemed like it could snap if too much force was applied but we put both beds against the wall so the wall supported it. I have a Thuma. That seems way sturdier. And was much more costly. Currently both Nectar beds are stable and are fine. Price seems good for what you get. Recommend this if you are looking for a simple, stable, platform bed.

We got this bed frame because we liked the idea of a more sustainable and easy to set up bed frame. The bamboo bed frame delibered on both those fronts, plus it isa beautiful and simple design. However, the bed frame has a fundamental design flaw. While the four main legs (the ones with Japanese joinery to put it all together) are both robust and have felt pads, the center support has three tiny legs that are screwed into the main (and not wide enough) support. These legs have a hard plastic bottom. We have hardwood floors and the little supports do not move on it like the main legs do, leading to them snapping off (screw broken out of the support beam). Nectar was gracious and sent a replacement bed, but the issue remains. We now support the center support beam with two stacks of books. It is beyond me why Nectar didn't just continue the design with Japanese joinery and adequately sized legs for the center support

DO NOT BUY THIS BED IN A KING SIZE! This purchase was a huge mistake and we regret ever purchasing from Nectar. The center supports are too flimsy to support a king size mattress. My husband and I are not big people and a short time after using the frame the center supports cracked and fell off. The center support started to bow leading the mattress to cave in the center. We reached out to Nectar and they sent out an entire bed frame. This one shortly after broke too. When I asked for a refund, they said too much time has passed. We should have just asked for a refund the first time to avoid all this! They just kept offering to send a new bed frame instead of giving us a refund, which makes you think "How cheap is this bed frame if Nectar is willing to send us three instead of just giving us our money back?" This was a big investment, that is now trash. DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE WE DID!

I ordered the king bed frame, headboard, and mattress on 12/21, received on 12/23, and unboxed closer to New Years Eve. I was skeptical of the sturdiness when I saw the frame supports but 'trusted the quality'. Fast forward to 2/21, all three bed supports failed and slid out, collapsing the mattress and scratching up my floor in the process. I looked at the refund policy and felt the only silver lining in this was Nectar's return policy and that I'd not had the bed 60 days so was eligible for refund. It turns out it failed on day 61 so they are only offering to send me a replacement. Why would anyone want a replacement that is likely to fail again? I don't understand how nectar in good conscience can sell this bed frame and headboard for $950 and market it as an $1836 value.

After comparing a lot of different Japanese style connector bed frames, we settled on nectar because of price. We wanted to keep our mattress and this frame is a temporary fix for us but definitely would not recommend if you're looking for a long term investment piece. The middle dowels of the bed frame aren't even long enough by design to touch the floor so it fails to provide the stability it's supposed to. We had to order additional bedframe stabilizers from Amazon that definitely look bulky but provide the functionality that nectar fails to provide. Otherwise, it was easy to put together and we haven't noticed any squeaking with the added Amazon supports so far. I wouldn't repurchase again and nectar really needs to fix the middle support beam design.

The frame is lovely, well made, and easy to assemble. The available headboards options did not fit what we were looking for (lower height for in front of a window) so we skipped it and ordered a different headboard elsewhere, but the headboard slots on this bed are designed only for the headboard Nectar sells and it doesn't have standard headboard slots. We wound up drilling the headboard we bought directly into the frame, on the legs, it lines up kind of odd and it's not the most elegant but it works and it's up against a wall so we don't super care. Would've loved it if the headboard options here were height adjustable, or if the bed just had standard width headboard slots or even a picture of the back so you'd know it didn't.

Pros: very easy to put together and looks beautiful. Cons: support legs are a joke. All 3 support legs broke off in less than 24 hours. So if you like to do any normal human activities in your bed besides sleeping...just know you will need to replace the teeny tiny legs with a larger piece of wood. We went with a 3 new legs that are 4x4 and secured them with pan head screws. Just to be sure. We didn't contact to have the frame replaced because to us, we would've run into the same problem. Overall, we were able to fix an obvious design flaw. The bed frame is beautiful and exactly what I was looking for. However, customers shouldn't have to fix a product they paid for. So buyer beware.

I like the idea of a bamboo bed and the Japanese joins that don't require any tools to put together, and the bamboo headboard is really nice. Zero stars for the slats that are supposed to support the mattress. They are so thin and flexible that it feels like sleeping on a trampoline. I did a lot of research to find an extra firm mattress I needed for a dislocated shoulder. The flexible slats on this bed completely defeat the extra firm mattress. I had to fix the bed by replacing the slats with more supportive, sturdy and unbending slats. I do not recommend the bed to anyone who needs a supportive bed. I would have had to return the bed if I couldn't fix it by replacing the slats.

Bamboo bed frame arrived well packaged. It was so very easy to put together I'm a 68 year old woman and it didn't take long. The unwrapping was the hardest part since it was so well packaged. Love the construction of the bed especially the no tools needed. The bed frame is very quiet no squeaks. The nectar mattress was a little difficult to put on the frame but it's not the company's fault it's on me weak hands. I love my new bed very comfortable, the mattress is nice quality . The price for the frame and mattress was responsibly priced. I highly recommend purchasing this bed frame and mattress. Hopefully it will last me for several years. I would buy fnectar products again.

Strong and sturdy! The finish is beautiful and blends well in any bedroom. Surprisingly quiet and makes minimal to zero sounds when moving around or laying down. The legs are thick and sturdy and in my experience it doesn't shift or move and hasn't damaged my hardwood floor. Got to admit that I almost went with a Thuma, but I'm ecstatic to say that I thoroughly love this frame. Instructions were easy and immensely simple to build. Also, I picked the standard delivery option, and don't know how they did it, but they shipped it the same day that I purchased and it arrived the next day. Absolutely blew my mind! Definitely solid bamboo and it feels like it!

We have enjoyed out bed frame for six months now. Easy to put together for our Cal-King mattress. Priced reasonably compared to other brands of bed frames. Especially love how low it sits to the floor. Very attractive, too. So easy to get in and out of bed now. We have a tile floor, so the three little middle legs slipped out of place. I trired putting rubber furniture cups under the legs but they slipped out of place two weeks later. Nectar offered to replace the legs and the board they attached to but the damage was minimal and I successfully replaced the little legs with 4x4 legs I cut to height. Seems to work fine now. We love our Nectar bed frame!

The bed frame was easy to assemble except for one corner which simply would not go together smoothly and remains uneven, though functional. The bed is beautiful to look at and seems sturdy. Also got the bamboo headboard, which is really lovely but NOT at all sturdy. It should have been designed with three or four posts, not a mere two, to hold it in place. As it is, it wobbles to and fro, not something one might feel confident to lean against whilst reading in bed or sitting up to talk. Also, had to sand headboard in several places before using it, in order to keep from snagging sheets or tearing skin on contact. Truly disappointed in the workmanship.

I had been looking at Japanese joinery beds, then I found this bed on Nectar. I bought a bundle (Bamboo queen bed, headboard, premier mattress, mattress cover, sheets, and pillows) on November 16th and had it 4 days later. The packages were manageable. I was and still am blown away by the quality of everything. I ordered it November 16 and it arrived 4 days later!!! It took me less than an hour to lay everything out and assemble the bed by myself and I am a 54 year old woman with arthritis. I waited to review it because sometimes products and companies start out strong but then fall short. Not Nectar! This is my favorite furniture purchase ever!

We first purchased this bed frame when we bought the mattress, assuming that the frame would be good for the mattress considering they're sold as complementing items. After receiving it at home and setting it up, according to the instructions we noticed that the middle support legs were kicking out before even getting on the bed. We let support know that we thought there was an issue and they recommended to put Non-Slip grips on the bottom of the middle supports. We found some stuck them on the bottoms and the legs were still kicking out. Yesterday we woke up to a cracking noise as the leg broke off the middle support. Super frustrating

We have the Thuma for our king bed, and wanted the similar look for a better price. Bought this on the President's Day sale for our guest room. Didn't put it together until May because we were renovating. No one has slept in it, just laid in it periodically while taking care of our newborn. The center leg is already broken, within <60 days. I had read the numerous reviews that had mentioned that issue, but wanted to believe, they had fixed the problem. Clearly not! Understand wear and tear over the course of years, but within 60 days of assembly proves it's a faulty product. Not worth the still pretty high price tag.

Before I get to the review of the actual product I need to say that the amount of shipping emails when ordering multiple items is absolutely absurd. I received at minimum 15 emails about my shipment, which was quite excessive and annoying. There is a raised seam going to width of the headboard, which is clearly a defect and missed by quality control. When assembling the bed, I got the nastiest splinter from the rough unfinished piece of wood that serves as a support leg. I had to go to urgent care to have it removed. If it wasn't such a hassle, I would've returned all of it. Complete and total fail from Nectar

Bought this for my daughter's room. Having been traumatized by past assembly jobs, I wiped out my calendar for the morning to dedicate to putting this together. Altogether it took me and a friend 30 mins to put together. It was the EASIEST assembly job ever in my life. By the end of it, I could tell my friend was thinking that if they ever needed a new bed frame, they'd buy this one. It's stable and supportive. Only con, is that while her trundle frame fits, the 5in trundle mattress is too tall. We don't have many sleep overs so not a big issue. But would be nice if it was 2 inches higher off the ground.

The bamboo platform frame and headboard were surprisingly easy to assemble - I put it together by myself with no hassle at all. Despite how simple the setup was, it's incredibly sturdy and feels very durable. I also did quite a bit of research before purchasing, and the price was noticeably lower than comparable options I found. The value for the quality is outstanding. Paired with the Nectar mattress, the difference in my sleep has been incredible - no more tossing and turning, just deep, comfortable rest. I'd absolutely recommend this setup to anyone looking to upgrade their sleep without overspending.

Our biggest want when looking for a new frame was one that was quiet. The first bedframe we ever bought (not Nectar) squeaked so loudly every time you'd roll over in bed that it would wake you up. We tossed that one and kept our mattress on the floor for years. We finally decided to try getting a frame again and after lots of shopping, decided on Nectar (for both the reviews and price). We've had our frame for about 2 months now and we love it! It has been so quiet! Not even the slightest creak. It was very easy to put together and feels very sturdy. Would definitely recommend this frame!

We got an eastern king bed with the headboard and it was very easy to assemble ( I think it took us leas than 10 minutes right from opening the package). we love the look of the bed, it truly is gorgeous. We've only had it a few months so definitely curious about the durability. The only thing that could be improved is the headboard- it is held together by what seems to me very few/small hinges. They did provide two foam blocks to cushion against the wall, but theres still quite a bit of give when you rest on the headboard - maybe more hinges would make it feel more stable.

We are empty nesters so we have converted all unused bedrooms to something we can use daily such as a library. We do have family and guests stay with us and we needed a quality bed that was easily setup and then easily disassembled after the visit. Nectar is the perfect bed as it doesn't need hardware, is solidly built and beautifully designed. We can convert a room into the perfect guest room at a moment's notice and proudly let family and friends enjoy the experience of sleeping on a bed that is beautiful and beautifully built not to mention extremely comfortable.

I actually love the headboard and look of the frame. The concept. But the three center support legs (more like sticks)broke two weeks in. Not even worth getting new ones. Was dead asleep felt one break while sleeping scared me to death. So Id recommend if you can brace the middle support yourself. Cr there support part is cheap. Rest of frame is good. We are not abnormally large people so the whole thing was odd but come to find out happened to my parents new nectar frame too. Nectar wouldn't replace the support sticks for them so didn't even try.

First I'll start with I love the quality of the bed at the price point compared to the competitors. We are using it with our people mattress. Only complaint we have is the middle brace and legs that run the center of the bed from head to foot cracked on us and isn't the most sturdy. Fortunately the customer service is top notch and they sent us a whole replacement frame. After getting the second piece installed I just believe this to be a weak point in the frame. We added some 3/8 plywood to try and help spread some more weight and so far so good

I found that the mattress did not fit the platform well. The end of the mattress leaves the corners of the platform exposed causing painful bruises to my shins. I have an existing headboard, but the extensions to mount the headboard you can purchase cause the platform not to fit flush with my headboard. This results in pillows disappearing. I am very frustrated with these issues as they prevent a peaceful nights sleep. The mattress is ok but you can't sit on the edge without sliding off. They kept bugging me to write the review so here it is.

I got the bamboo frame and fabric headboard. Assembly was straight-forward but the headframe didn't quite fit so I had to bang it into place. Bed frame is decent. But the frame itself is 8-10 inches wider than a queen-size mattress. Every time I get out of bed I make contact with the wood frame. It's very unpleasant. The frame isn't the right size for a queen. But other than that details, it's a decent frame. Good bamboo, good castle joints, the frame fit together well, the headboard fit well enough. I just wish it was actually queen-sized.

We have only had this bed frame for a month and it is a huge difference from our last one, unfortunately in a negative way. It is not solid. When my husband moves, I can feel every little movement from the frame moving. I sent pictures previously of how the center pegs/legs on each side of the middle center peg/leg do not touch the floor and customer service told me it was fine. It does not feel fine. I am so disappointed. It is a beautiful bed, but beyond that, it is a waste of money. I would not recommend others to buy this bed frame.

The bed assembles nicely and the slats are great. However, there is only one piece of wood that goes down the center from head to foot and it is quite cheaply made. It cracked in less than a month of use in the middle of the night! Nectar made good on it and gave us a replacement and we are planning to support it with bed support legs from Amazon because it will break again without further support. There should be 3 metal bars with support legs that go down the middle from head to foot and this should be corrected at the design level.

The frame arrived damaged, with scuff marks, dents, and chips in the wood, and the headboard is extremely flimsy and constantly hits the wall. We had to put a scarf between it and the wall to keep us from waking up to the sound of it banging against the wall. The slats are also not great, and several were completely warped when we put it together, which causes loud noises when we get on and off of the bed. If I knew the quality would be this poor, I would have saved myself the trouble and the $1000. . . I don't recommend buying this.

I love that the bed frame is not very heavy and low to the floor. It came on time and in excellent condition. I did have a bit of trouble getting the headboard connected, highly recommend you get someone to help you do that as it will be much easier to do. It looks and feels great, no rough edges. It can be a bit squeaky at times, but it's really not that bad. I have a futon mattress on mine. I'm sleeping better now than I have in a while. I understand why this is listed as most popular. I highly recommend this bed frame!

I had 2 beds for 15-20 years and finally decided to replace them. After researching my options I decided on Nectar and I'm so happy with my decision. I bought the bamboo bed for my guest bedroom and it matches perfectly either way everything. It arrived quickly and my young grandsons assembled it in less than 30 minutes. My guests have commented on how comfortable it is. I bought the Nectar Claremont bed with the linen headboard for the master bedroom and, again, it was easy to assemble and very comfortable to sleep on

This bed is STURDY. No creaking whatsoever. My friend assembled it alone with no issue. My only mild complaint is that the nectar mattress doesn't fit snuggly into the frame, it just rests on top because there's no lip. Which would be fine, but the frame seems about 2 inches wider than the mattress, so an inch of the base peeks out on each side below the mattress. Aesthetically that bothers me, but that's such a silly complaint. The mattress and bed frame were absolutely worth the package deal. 10/10 would buy again.

This frame was so easy to assemble. Very happy with the quality of the frame. It looked just like it did in the picture. My only complaint is that we have a California King, I chose the correct size and it's actually not the measurements for a California King. It's for a regular king. Very different measurements. I bought it on sale, so I couldn't return it. I made custom spacers for between the head board and mattress to make up for the difference in length. DOn't buy this frame if you have a California King.

My new bed frame has multiple black spots all over and they look like mold to me and they are impossible to be clean and I am posting couple of pictures to show that. The way headboard is attached to the bed frame it's extremely unstable and if you like to use it as support you must leaned it against the wall and the back it's not painted. Only positive I can say it's the price, I looked at Thuma beds friend have one amazing piece but way to expensive, but the saying you get what you pay is so true.

I really enjoy this bed frame. It was super easy to assemble, literally no screws at all. I did have to use a rubber mallet for one corner, but otherwise very easily put together with no tools. I bought this bed because I had a metal frame that was extremely loud whenever there was movement, so we wanted to bed that was quieter. While this bed is quieter the wood on wood from the headboard connecting to the rest of the frame has some noise from rubbing. But, otherwise I really lovely frame.

This is a great affordable Japanese-style joinery bed made of bamboo. Delivery and assembly was easy, but the pieces came covered in what looked like fiberglass shards. The middle support beam has three legs that look more flimsy than the rest of the bed. The threads to screw them into were crooked and are now causing the wood to split. Will. be asking for a replacement. The rest of the bed is fine otherwise and we like the linen headboard, though it is a bit loose if not propped on the wall.

We've had a sofa bed, and a cheap day bed in our spare room and finally had enough of them squeaking and making noise. Not sure we could've justified the full retail price of this frame but on sale, felt worth splurging on and glad we did. Over a month in of almost daily use and still doesn't make a sound. The bamboo looks great and assembly was mostly good/easy - just had two corners that I had to really whack/use my body weight on to get sitting flush... didn't seem right but had to be done.

I purchased the Cali King size. The bed frame isn't made robust enough to support a single person. It would probably be fine in a smaller size, but the the king is too long for the design. I had to order aftermarket support struts to install. I'm 6' 210lbs, I would not recommend buying this bed in the queen and up sizes or if you're a large person. Additionally the bed shifts and moves around because the interlocking joints are loose. This causes it to wobble when you roll over or lay down.

The bedframe is fantastic! It arrived much faster than I anticipated. Everything arrived at the same time putting the frame together was incredibly easy. One of the things I really love about the bedframe, even though it's a very minor detail are the foam pads you include to stick to the headboard where it's pushed against the wall. Whoever came up with that idea as a genius. I like the bedframe so much. I'm ready to purchase another one. Thank you for your outstanding product and service.

I bought this bed a little over a year again and within 6 months the center support and legs broke from regular use by a single person. The replacement just broke this week in the same place. Nectar will not issue a refund and will only send a replacement frame so I will soon be on my 3rd frame in eighteen months with the first two being defective in the exact same way. We are now out of the money and will need to buy a new frame unless we want to keep getting replacements every 6 months.

The design is great. It was insanely easy to put together. It looks great. But it cannot handle the king size mattress. It started creaking after about a week n half. And the creaking has gotten more constant... Hope this doesn't affect the mattress. I feel like the bed frame shouldnt be making noise when I roll over. We've had it for over a month and I don't think the frame will last. . . My husband is 6 foot 200 lbs and I'm 5'9 140 lbs. not impressed for the money that we spent on this.

When the bed arrived, one of the legs was already broken. I didn't want to wait forever for a new one, so I ignored the bad QC, wood glued the thing, and waited until it was set and sturdy to assemble the bed. Fast forward 6 months, everything seems to be going great, and the middle support legs are destroyed from normal use. One has split down the middle (lengthwise) and one ripped the threads right out of the slat support beam, leaving one lone leg to do the job. Avoid this frame.

I had foam mattresses given to me so all I needed was a platform bedframe. I studied Nectar. com, & the bamboo w/Japanese joinery appealed to me. The description & diagrams on Nectar sight gave me confidence to order a queen size platform w/ headboard. My handyman who put the frame together said it was a smooth assembly & the "no screws" Japanese joinery was very strong. I bought the light colored choice in the bamboo. I'm very satisfied & think the simple headboard is beautiful.

Sturdy, such a simple but elegant aesthetic, and by far the easiest bed I have ever put together. I just moved into a place alone and I needed something of high quality that would last me but also wouldn't take two+ hours to put together with a bunch of tools. Took less than 15 minutes from unwrapping the bed to putting it together! Been sleeping on it for over a month and I have been super happy - no creaks, no movement. And still plenty of height to use my underbed for storage.

I've only had this for about a month so I can't speak to long term. I weigh in around 600lbs. So far it seems extremely sturdy. It doesn't squeak at all. I thought for sure the the joints would squeak. The only issue I've had and it's not even an issue really. Mine has the headboard and the cushioning block on the back has a very slight squeak as you move around and it rubs the wall. Other than that I have no complaints at this time. Very surprised and pleased.

After putting up with a squeaky metal bed frame for a few years I was so glad to stumble upon this Japanese joinery style frame. It feels really nice and solid putting it together, which takes no time at all since there are no tools involved (one of the best parts of this frame). I've been sleeping soundly on it for a few weeks and it has been very comfortable and quiet. The price point is great, especially compared to other brands, at no cost to the quality.

I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing this frame at first as there was a mix of reviews. I have to say I am happy with the frame. It came as expected no issues after about 2 months the color is a little lighter than the picture, I ordered natural, but not a big deal. The frame feels sturdy and all the "joinery" fits well. I like that it already has felt on parts that touch the floor. I am actually considering getting the headboard now to finish the look.

The bed frame, once put together, has been sturdy and no issues. The pieces were inconsistent in their cuts and alignment which made it more difficult to put together than expected. For example, in one of the photos, the dowel was not aligned to fit into the receiving area. I had to make a few adjustments for the pieces to get into place. In addition, some pieces had residue that remained on the frame. Overall, pretty poor quality check that was completed.

I got the bamboo frame in walnut, no head board. Very sturdy wood. It was easy to assemble following the instructions. One star off due a noticeable chip in one of the legs and my Full size Nectar Premium Foam mattress doesn't cover the support slats ( mattress isn't wide enough to hide them). A comforter or bedspread hanging over will hide them, but if you tuck in your bed covers the slats are noticeable one side or both if you center the mattress.

I wanted a bed frame that combined functionality with natural aesthetics yet was light and durable. The bamboo bed frame delivers just that. It arrives in easy to assemble pieces- sturdy slotted bed posts that glide together. The slats fold accordion style into 2 segments that secure with durable velcro, ensuring they'll stay in place. You won't need a bed frame with this frame- it's the correct height without one. I hope to order another one soon.

Did not go together with ease. I had to pound the joints with a rubber sledge hammer. There are big 3 inch gaps between the mattress and the edges of the bed. I ordered a king and the frame does not fit a king bed it fits very weird. The pockets for the "head board that I didn't order" make the bed stick out another 3 inches from the wall. I do wish I would have spent the little bit of extra money for a thuma. This is not an equal product.

Not only was this platform bed, super stylish and the perfect color, but to say it was so easy to put together would be an understatement! No tools required everything fit together perfectly and the slats that you just unrolled because they were all in one long Velcro strip were amazing. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new bedframe and then there's the nectar mattress, unbeatable, the most comfortable we've ever had.

The center support legs are almost an inch above the floor (so, not supportive). We have shimmed them with wood, but this is not an ideal solution. The bed's feet slide on our hard wood floor, so the bed shifts around a lot. Would have been nice to have non-slip feet or the option. The head board required us to use a mallet to drive it in because the slots were too tight. Otherwise, ease to assemble, seems solid so far, and looks nice.

The frame is nice, was easy to build. However there are three supports for the center that do not reach the floor by a coupe of inches. This seemed like a mistake to me. Thankfully, I was able to reach customer support even late in the evening. Support confirmed that the center support posts are not meant to always reach the floor. It seems fine except when my kids jump on the bed. I fear those posts will damage the hard wood floor.

The platform part of the bed frame was very sturdy and looks good. The headboard is another story. We got the cloth headboard and it has absolutely no strength to it. As soon as you touch it or lean against it it begins to give rather than stay in place like one would expect with a headboard. The headboard is aesthetically pleasing but is not sturdy at all so has no practicality to it in the slightest. I do not recommend getting it.

The bed frame went together so easily, with absolutely no tools required. It feels very sturdy and solid. The frame itself is nearly even height with the slats, so the mattress does not really nest down inside the frame and the slats do show a bit beyond the mattress. I only wish there was a finish option in between Natural (very light) and Walnut (VERY dark). A mid-tone light walnut or cherry finish would be a great offering.

It was delivered in the rain. Left at the bottom of the outdoor stairs to the patio. When I opened it the plastic pulled off some of the surface material. Not the quality I expected. When assembling. One of the plastic holds for the slats broke off. The support underneath the bed is not the same wood or color. There are 3 nicks in the legs and side of the bed frame. I sent an email asking about a replacement and no reply.

We wanted to purchase an easy to assemble bed made of sustainable materials. We got that, but for the price I wish it were more durable and stronger-feeling. The slats feel like they could snap easily and the bed slides around a lot. The headboard wobbles in the frame so we had to wrap a blanket around it so it didn't scratch up our wall. For this much money, I wish it were a bit more substantial, but it does the job.

The center bar is made of incredibly cheap wood and the support stands under the bar are not long enough. Tried threading them as low as they could go and still wouldn't touch the floor.

Everything was great- love that no tools were needed and pieces went together easily. However there was one problem- the three (3) legs that attached in the center of the frame are 2" too short so they do not reach the floor. I solved the problem by placing a short 2x4 under the legs which was exactly what was needed so they would work to stabilize the frame. Kind of strange that they were too short

Such a wonderful bedframe. Easy to put together (just one person can do it). Very minimalistic and fits well into the space I have. The dark color is so chic.

It is bigger than the mattress so the frame and slats are visible from all sides. The bed moves around a lot, we have to very often adjust the mattress. We have stuff pillows behind where we lay our heads to manage the large gap. If we pull the mattress to the wall to fill the gap, there is a lot of extra frame and space at the foot of the bed.

Questions and answers about the DreamCloud Bamboo Platform Bed Frame

Common questions answered by our team first, then questions shoppers asked the retailer, with the retailer’s own answers.

Image of the post author
Common question
Does the DreamCloud Bamboo Platform Bed Frame fit neatly around a mattress?

Answer: Check before you assume a snug fit. DreamCloud publishes overall dimensions for each size, 209.8cm by 159.8cm for the king, which read as outside measurements, but not the internal mattress space. Owners who skipped the headboard report a gap at the wall, left by the empty headboard slots. Measure your room against those figures, and ask DreamCloud to confirm the internal size for your mattress before ordering.
Image of the post author
Common question
Would you recommend the DreamCloud Bamboo Platform Bed Frame for a couple?

Answer: Not on a king or super king, and not if either of you is heavier. A single suits it, as does a double with one lighter person in it. By design the centre legs hover just clear of the floor and only engage when needed, and there's no published weight limit. Broken centre supports are the complaint unhappy owners raise most, though many others call it sturdy. Ask for the weight limit before you buy.
Image of the post author
Common question
Does Japanese joinery mean the DreamCloud bamboo frame has no screws anywhere?

Answer: Not quite. DreamCloud advertises "Japanese Joinery" and "No Screws or Nails", which is about how the bamboo pieces slot together, though several owners say the centre legs screw in on threads. Many owners back the practical benefit, a quick build with no tools. If the centre fixings matter to you, ask DreamCloud how the middle legs attach, because that's the part owners report failing.
