DHP Aiden Metal Futon Frame, Black

Amazing. Some assembly tips- the screws fit, and how to get them in!
I searched everywhere for a frame and took a gamble on this cheaper one with my expectations low. I’m very impressed and I love this frame, I was able to assemble it by myself as a single not strong person. Some tips for people struggling with assembly from what I learned:You WILL NEED:-An electric drill. Magnetic bits help.-A clamp, if assembling alone.-Pliers, to hold the nuts still while tightening screwsThe wood screws DO fit in the frame panels but you need to have the frame laid flat on the floor and put all your weight on your drill to drive them in. Don’t try it any other way, it’s impossible. You will need a clamp to align and hold some pieces together while screwing if you’re doing it without help. Another tip, ignore the instructions telling you to add the mattress holder brackets last and do that before you attach the panels to the frame as you’ll also need a lot of force to drive in those screws.Definitely the best thing I’ve ever bought for my apartment, it’s high quality, looks nice and is a perfect couch alternative if you have cats while also being able to turn into a guest bed.

overestimated my building abilities a bit..
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

Excelente!!! Mega recomendado!!! Tamaño perfecto para un colchón que venden por aquí, es súper grueso y cómodo. La base es de muuuy buena calidad y funciona perfecto. Lo armé yo solito, con paciencia eso sí. Muy lindo además.

I bought this futon for my son and once you put it all together it works really good! The metal is light and the whole frame is very easy to move. It takes awhile to put together but once it is finished it moves perfect. Some of the screws were difficult to put in, you definitely need lots of strength! My son loves the frame and the futon mattress that goes with it!
