Today we're taking a closer look at the Edgemont and from the specifications and the reviews I am thoroughly impressed with this ottoman wooden bed frame from Bensons For Beds. The combination of high-quality oak and oak veneers with sleek, contemporary lines make for an elegant and versatile piece that would work well in both traditional and modern decor. The addition of under-bed storage is generous and practical, making it a great choice for a guest room or a child's first double bed.
One of the standout features of this bed frame is the comfort it provides. The sprung base slats make for a comfortable base, and comfort comes up again and again in the reviews, often alongside how solid the frame feels. One owner summed it up as "Solid and very comfortable". Plenty of owners found the instructions clear, though the build takes planning: reviews mention three heavy boxes and a couple of hours or more of work, with one owner advising it is "probably better for two to do it". Others paid for assembly instead ("glad we paid extra to have it put together").
The main complaint about the bed itself is creaking, usually traced to the metal frame that holds the slats. One owner wrote that "the metal internal frame that holds the mattress is very creaky", while another found it loosely bolted to the wooden frame and tightened it up. The lift mechanism gets plenty of praise ("Loads of storage space and easy to open and close"), but the pull cord at the foot end is a niggle for a few, one owner wishing it "could do with being slightly longer".
Overall, the Edgemont Ottoman Wooden Bed Frame from Bensons For Beds is a well-made, stylish, and comfortable choice for anyone in need of a new bed frame. The added bonus of ample storage space makes it even more appealing. The remaining complaints each come from a small number of owners: bags of polystyrene to dispose of, frames that arrived damaged, and the odd later fault such as collapsed slats or a lift mechanism that broke after two years.
