Skyline Furniture Diamond Tufted Wingback Bed in Linen Grey

Based on the existing reviews of the bed, I was terrified to order it. Previous reviews offered points regarding the quality of construction that probably should have pushed me away from buying it sight-unseen.

However, I figured that if the cosmetic piece of the bed was solid (the fabric, mostly) I'd be able to correct any failings on the structural level on my own... and after all, any other somewhat comparable bed I'd seen to this point was running much closer to the $1500-$2000 price range.

Firstly, the bed arrived almost immediately (3-5 days after the order was completed). The shipment comes in two packages, so don't freak out if you only get the headboard or frame in the initial shipment... the rest of the assembly should be on its heels.

Secondly, there were little-to-no issues cosmetically or structurally with the bed. Only two small take-aways: a) one of the ten bed frame leg extenders did not fit correctly into the bottom of the leg b) the front of the bed frame where the two vertical, fabric sides meet the front, horizontal fabric sides... these pieces don't flush up perfectly, as they pull apart at the bottom by roughly 3/4 of an inch.

All told, I was pleasantly surprised by the product I received at a price point that was well below anything comparable you might find at a high end furniture store.

Beautiful, but terribly made product. We are VERY unhappy with this purchase and don't recommend it to anyone. The headboard is flimsy. The sides of the bed don't line up. One of the screws on the headboard got stuck and can't be tightened due to lodged wood chips from the drilled hole. Even though it was poorly made, we are not willing to pay the $60 return shipping charges when it's not our fault the product was so BAD. I wish they had a picture of the support underneath the mattress available before I had made my purchase. If I had known how cheaply it was made I never would've purchaed. DO NOT BUY!

Was hesitant to order the bed based on the negative reviews...but I figured it's a gorgeous bed, it's exactly what I want...so I may as well take a chance! Bed arrived a few weeks earlier than we thought which was a plus, and each part arrived undamaged. It also arrived in two different boxes, two different days. First the headboard and then rest of frame the next day. Don't know why, but I read that has happened to a few of you...so I just went with it.

Here are the negatives:

Self Assembly takes a certain amount of skill. (Thankfully my husband is GREAT with this sort of thing). If you or your husband are not handy, find a friend who is and pay him! It's worth it to get it put together right.

Instructions are VERY UNCLEAR my husband had to redo certain steps based on something being put on the wrong way, etc. My advice to you is, screw everything on loosely and then after everything fits correctly, tighten with power drill. Ikea instructions are better!! And that says a lot!

The frame wont flush correctly UNLESS you take the time to screw on loosely, have someone hold each corner and THEN tighten with power drill making sure each corner is flush and perfect. Takes a little more diligence but it can be done! Don't settle for corners on your bed that do not flush, they will drive you crazy!

NO EXTRA WASHERS/SCREWS this one was the most disappointing! How do you not include one or two extra washers or screws? We had one screw that was defective!!

Pro's:

It's a BEAUTIFUL bed.

Decent price looks more expensive than it actually is.

Strong construction

Frame Feels sturdy

A lot of you said there was a gap between the mattress and headboard...I didn't have this problem because I had a 9" box spring and 12" deep mattress. However if you have anything that measures less than what I just stated, you will have a gap.

Hope that helps! I couldn't wait to review the bed since there were so few reviews out there. Had instructions been clearer and came with extra hardware, it would have gotten the full 5 star rating.

Wingback isn't very deep. The instructions aren't very good so there was some undoing and redoing I had to do. Once it's all together it's awesome. Looks great!

I read all the reviews and was hesitant to order a bed online. I am so glad I made this purchase. The bed arrived super fast and was packaged perfectly. All parts were there and with patience it went together perfectly. All ends are closed, no gaps. This was due to following what another reviewer stated by loosely setting the frame and then tightening. This company makes and packs beds for shipping and they do it well. I would recommend as long as you take the time needed to put it together correctly.
