I was looking for a platform bed, with soft edges, and modular headboard. I found the The ModRest Platform Bed online at a select few distributors, but at exorbitant prices (3-5k range). When I saw this on amazon for $500-600, I was skeptical of the quality but I have never been more pleased with a piece of furniture.It is soft on all edges, with quality craftsmanship. It is a sturdy build. I would recommend two people to assemble to help the dowels meet up at each corner. Another tip do not completely screw in the corner brackets until all pieces are connected it will save you time for adjusting to ensure all angles meet 90 degrees. The bed also comes in several large and heavy boxes, although in very good condition.
The headboard pieces are very sturdy as well, with two heavy metal brackets slotting into the side of the bedframe/mattress. It slots in on any side of the bed, and supports a substantial amount of weight if you're leaning against it to read a book or watch TV.
You can use a box spring in this frame, although, the mattress alone is more attractive.
The color on the pictures looks more like a chocolate brown it's actually really dark espresso as the name suggests.
I'm contemplating purchasing the white version for a guest room. The feet of this bed are well tucked beneath the soft edges, so those of you who are clumsy will LOVE this bed no more sore shins.
Purchasing furniture online without seeing the item has been hit or miss for me, but this is definitely a purchase I am extremely happy with.
