best platform full Mates Bed with Twin Mates Bed drawers

I just upgraded my son from a toddler bed to a big boy bed and decided to purchase this one. The storage is great for extra blankets, books, stuffed animals, etc. It also happens to be large enough and supportive enough that I did away with the box springs after purchasing this frame.

My only complaints are these: when I received it one of the boards was slightly cracked, and it's a LOT of work to put together.Finish seemed quite a bit darker than what was purchased.

As a start, I'm very good with furniture assembly in general. Now, without exaggeration... I entered the first screw in the first piece of wood (which was part of the drawers) and *crack*, the screw made a crack immediately when it reached the end, and I didn't turn it hard or tried to make sure it's secured by pushing it further. I thought it might be my mistake that I had the piece of wood placed on the floor and not a carpet. I entered the 2nd screw in the other hole, on a carpet and... *crack*. And by the way, one of the screws' holes (where you enter your screwdriver) was melted (I really don't know what ISO South Shore are talking about), so I was going to end up anyway with one screw less if I continued the assembly.
Anyway, the only right thing, as I said in the subject, is that I ordered this item from Amazon and they didn't give me a hard time returning it (well, the pick-up guy is coming tomorrow but I don't expect any issues since it's Amazon related)... Read more

These beds solved a problem we had -- more grandchildren, same available space! The beds went together easily, looked great, and the drawers were perfect for the kids clothes when they visit. I am very pleased with the beds and also with the service we received.
