DHP Durable Metal Silver Futon Couch Bed Frame

This futon bed frame is well designed and made. The instructions are fairly simple. I put this together myself. Once I got the hange of things, it went fast. Took about hour or so to put it together. Recommend it to others. One thing is that the frame sits low. I offset that with using bed risers from Amazon. Perfect now.

Just like everything else that you build, if you follow the direction as directed this will be an easy build. It can get a little tough, if you don't have the patience to follow directions. But if you do, you will love it. Trust me. My family enjoys having it.

Only complicated step in assembly handled poorly , raise/lower spring mechanism , left - right marks not the same as on other parts , hard to find as painted over R & L marks easily missed . Fixturing position to side frame also vague .... two people with three digit IQs' and a spare 1/2 hour managed to sleuth it out .... tools provided could , with hella effort , do he job but not a chance the frame will be firm and up to task .Pleased w/product ,priced right , easy to operate , solid and attractive .....

Alright so, we went into this pretty optimistic. the box itself was packaged I’d say very well. organized, labeled, wrapped with plastic and spaced out with cardboard piece’s. decently heavy box, should have two people to carry it upstairs unless you wanna throw your back out. Now to the building process; the directions were a little hard to read but that’s how almost all these build it yourself amazon products are. The hardware pieces were organized perfectly in a way i haven’t seen before. They aren’t just thrown mixed together in a box, but individually spaced in plastic on a single cardboard piece for easy finding of each screw. MAKE SURE TO TAKE YOUR TIME ON EACH STEP. trust me, you don’t wanna tighten 4 screws in a cramped spot and have to restart. One complaint is some of the metal poles you need to screw pieces together into are too small. Directions say not to use a power drill, but using on a very low torque should be fine, and will save a lot of headache trying to hand screw metal on metal (if that makes sense). after 3 hours, we finally got it completed! Luckily we received an used mattress from some family and it fit perfectly on the frame. i find it easy to fold from couch, to bed, as they include handles that can be screwed on. it feels sturdy to sit on and has some decent space for at least three people and it still doesn’t feel cramped. I personally like how the back piece is a bit higher, so it doesn’t feel all small and like a child’s seat to sit on despite being lower to the floor than a couch or sofa would be. Overall, i don’t find it cheaply made like some people have said, you get what you pay for. Don’t buy a $70 frame and expect it to hold over 3000 pounds, it’s perfect for a hang room or bedroom for a group of teens or young adults like myself.edit: dropped some stars because the metal on the seating part broke and now you can fall through if you sit in a certain spot. not to mention to can feel the metal bars that are super uncomfortable to sit on. honestly not worth it.Edit 2: all the bars are completely breaking and popping off now, very disappointing

The price was right. And although there are a few bad reviews, there are a lot of good ones. I also saw this frame recommended on another site that was reviewing futon frames, "The Sleep Judge." It was #5, but number 1 was too expensive, number 2 was another DHP frame that wouldn't work for me, number 3 and number 4 were twin size chairs and expensive, and then there was this one. So when i saw it went on sale, i got it. I'm glad I did. It's working out well.It took a while to put together, but i would not say it was difficult. There were a lot of screws. Just stay organized about it. (I used my own hex tool which made it a bit easier) There was one part where the picture didn't match very well to the product, and I ended up having to redo something, but it didn't take long. Just pay really close attention to the drawings.Because this futon frame is lightweight, I would not suggest it for anyone who might be giving it a lot of punishment. I would also suggest, contrary to what the top reviewer says, do not use a power screwdriver unless you are very careful. I had no problem using a regular screwdriver to install all the screws. They do say that when the futon is pulled out in bed mode not to sit or lie on the very edge. I would say that would be more of a problem for a heavier person, but it's an issue of balance. Since they don't know the weight of the person purchasing it, they make the warning. (again, this is a lightweight frame.)If you have a thick futon mattress with coils/foam that doesn't fold easily, then there is a learning curve to getting this to go back into the couch position. At first i thought I would never be able to do it. (I still would have been better off than the old frame I had). But after some experimenting and practice, I can get it folded every day in a matter of seconds and I'm a 5 foot 4 inch woman. You need to stand on the side of the futon where the arm rest is. Grab the top of the "backrest" part of the mattress and push it forward like your pushing the mattress into a folded position, then grab the seat part of the frame and pull up toward the "backrest" part of the mattress. If this doesn't pop the frame into couch position, then let go of the mattress and grab the "backrest" part of the frame and pull it toward the "seat" part of the frame so the seat and backrest of the frame are forming a "V", then rock the whole thing forward (toward the seat side) and it should fall into position. It works for me every day.

Cumplió con las expectativas, pero el colchón, solo hay una marca que da las medidas justas, las demás marcas se exceden por mucho.Colchón caro, de buena calidad si, espero dure tiempo.

This metal futon frame came with detailed instructions and all of the hardware and tools needed to put it together except for a Philips head screwdriver. There is an offered link for assembly videos, but they were not needed. I followed each step carefully and the finished result is sturdy and good quality! The measurements were just as advertised and our old futon mattress fit it perfectly! (I did not buy the mattress from this company). The frame transitions smoothly from a seat to a bed and back. This product is well priced and well constructed!

Es de un tamaño ideal ya que lo puedo utiziar sin problema como sofá o cama..

I would not recommend this product. The frame I received is sitting half finished in the living room at the moment and I have no idea what I am going to do with it now that it's out of the box. The screws get caught on the holes. Some parts I received were rusted. There are a few bigger pieces that slot into each other with the intention of certain holes lining up so that a bolt/screw can fit through it but they do not line up at all. There were some scratches and scuffs here and there but those were probably due to bouncing around in the box so I will not fault the manufacturer for that. The height of one of the supporting pieces was totally wrong, that or the frame was warped in a way that made it so it wasn't touching the floor. Out of total desperation I added a few pieces of felt pad under one of them to compensate for the height difference. Definitely not a solution to the problem and looks jank as all hell.The only pros I could think of was the manual has easy to follow directions but some of the images do not match up with what's happening in real life. The kit comes with everything you need to build the frame.Pictures: The rust is self explanatory. The others show my attempt with tape to keep two pieces and a middle joining piece steady and lined up while I tried to put the screws in, but it was not possible with a regular screw driver. If you had a drill this process might be easier, but it may also bust up your drill. I don't think you want to pay 150$ to find out. I also included pictures of the support pieces with felt pads.I really wanted to like this, honestly. The reviews had me convinced that this would be a good find. I kept trying to build against my better judgement, hoping it would be salvageable but it's two and a half hours later + an hour break because I wanted to think about how to be polite when writing this review. To be honest I do have some leftover frustrations as I write this so it may still sound quite biased, but this was definitely a fail product for me.Take this anecdotal evidence and do what you will with it.

Un poco tedioso para armar pero si se siguen los pasos del instructivo no tendrás problemas llegó bien empacado, lo malo fue que unas tuercas venían sueltas afortunadamente estaban dentro de la caja. Las almohadillas de tope entre tubos no salen buenas, se caen al rosar las partes metálicas pero en general me parece buen producto espero y dure
