The Original Bed Co - Kings Road

Ordered a brass bed frame- always wanted one. Great product, and service. Make no mistake, it’s a heavyweight item, that will last a lifetime. Very thick brass tubes. Delivery was impeccable, with tracking and a 3 hour window.

We had to wait several months as we chose a bed that was not in stock. It arrived on time and the delivery company were communicative and effecient. We were moving beds between rooms so chose self assembly. The packaging is good for avoiding shipping damage but there was an excessive amount of stickytape, clingfilm wrapping and expanded foam. Not great from an environmental perspective. The assembly instructions were clear but a couple of times it would have been better if items were assembled in a different order. The design uses many, many more nuts and bolts to our other iron beds - one uses none. Factory quality control appears to be lax, as another reviewer notes, the slats are rough, and poor quality wood with splits has been used. The slats only rest on the frame, so there is an instruction to not slide the mattress over the slats to avoid them shifting. All our other beds (5) have retention for the slats to avoid this problem. Turning a heavy matress on this bed will be fun! The inserts in the posts that take a threaded stem that the finials are attached onto were very badly aligned (see photos). I was able to correct this with a mallet and a block of wood, but a simple jig at the factory avoid this manufacturing defect, which I expect is routinely corrected on site by their assembly staff. We are happy with the bed, which is in a guest room, but would not buy from this company again.

Arrived on time , well priced I purchased the frame & mattress together. Very pleased well packaged Easy to assemble, I managed on my own 2 people would be better. My only criticism is that when assembles 4 small alloy bolts are visible, small but still visible. OBC why don't you supply 4 plastic covers cost you nothing other wise great purchase
