Rustic Bed

Many of the items this seller sells in their cedar line are not what they say it is. The pictures are stolen from the Rustic Natural Cedar company, and the product is certainly not theirs. In my opinion, this violates a lot of rules and this seller should be banned from Amazon.com.

We are very happy with our bed. Very good workmanship. Thank you so much

I was really looking forward to getting this bed and seeing it in the intended room. And while I'll keep it because I just don't want to mess with the hassle of a return, it is unlikely that I would purchase this product again.

I fully understand that wood comes with flaws and will "check" (formed cracks) and agree that these tend to add character to the wood product. But there's a relative size limit of those cracks that's acceptable and you only expect just so many of them. This piece of furniture exceeds that threshold in my opinion.

First the good. The product arrived faster than I expected, and I have it together and am writing the review before it was supposed to be here. That's fantastic. Also good is the construction. I did not anticipate and it was a relief to see that the footboard and headboard panel are already assembled excluding the legs. The pieces are straight, properly turned and shaped, no deficiencies in the production quality or the assembly. They did not use any shortcuts in putting this piece together. Assembling the legs onto the panels requires putting two pegs into a hole and securing it. I was dreading that these would not line up or would be sloppy. Neither is the case. The tolerances are very tight and it takes a bit of work to accomplish this, but there are no technical skills involved and the fit is amazingly close to perfect. I would not consider this a task for one person to do alone unless they have a fair amount of upper body strength pieces can be heavy. All in all, it was probably one of the best furniture assembly experiences that I've had.

There is just one downside as mentioned before. For the size of the wood, the cracks are excessive. I was holding my breath as I worked around both huge cracks in the smaller of the two legs, predrilled the holes a little bigger and soaped up the bolts to avoid too much expansion and tension in the holes. It turned out successful, but someone who didn't know this almost certainly would have had a problem. Other cracks in longer pieces were a bit too much as well, but was able to keep most of them away from eyesight. The longer legs also had cracks, but these were of a size that I would expect and seemed quite reasonable. Quite reasonably, they could have tossed away another 4 ft of leg diameter log and had a very nice looking product and a happy customer.

I love the bed very sturdy, the customer service was fast to respond to my questions

Slow shipping, also I was told I needed a metal bed frame for the bed since i ordered a queen and the bed would fit around it, spend fifty bucks to find out that's completely wrong, the bed frame sits higher than the standard metal frame and all you need is the center bar that runs across. Not happy about the shipping and bad info givin

Looks great, very sturdy, & makes me feel like I'm sleeping in a lodge. I only wish I could've put it together by myself, but it really takes 2 ppl to assemble. Nothing else to complain about...if that's even really a complaint...
