Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I READ ALL THE REVIEWS OF THIS PRODUCT BEFORE ORDERING AND I CAN TELL YOU THEY ALMOST MADE ME NOT BUY THE ITEM. I READ REVIEWS OF PEOPLE SAYING STUFF ARRIVED BROKEN, AND OTHERS WHO LOVED IT LEFT ONLY 4 STARS INSTEAD 5, SO THESE REVIEWS REALLY MADE ME HESITATE. AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REAL SHAME FOR ME HAD I NOT ORDERED THIS BED FOR MY SON.
FIRST OFF, WHEN YOUR ITEMS ARRIVE, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS GO THROUGH THE PARTS LIST AND CHECK OUT EACH PART AND POSITION THEM NEATLY TO PREPARE BEFORE PUTTING IT TOGETHER. YOU WOULD NOTICE IF A PART WAS BROKEN BEFORE STARTING, AND IF YOU DON'T THEN PERHAPS ORDERING ON LINE AND PUTTING IT TOGETHER YOURSELF ISN'T THE THING FOR YOU.
GETTING A BROKEN PART REPLACED IS ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM, ALL YOU DO IS CALL SOUTHSHORE AT THEIR TOLLFREE NUMBER 800-290-0465 AND THEY WILL SEND OUT REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR ANYTHING YOU RECEIVE BROKEN, FREE OF CHARGE. THEY ARE GREAT.
THE PRODUCT INFORMATION SAYS IT TAKES 2 PEOPLE TO PUT THIS TOGETHER. NOT TRUE! I AM A 46 YEAR OLD LADY AND NOT IN THE BEST OF SHAPE, AND I PUT THIS TOGETHER ALL BY MYSELF WITH NO PROBLEMS. WHEN THE HEAVY PACKAGE ARRIVED ON MY FRONT PORCH, I SIMPLY TOOK A BOX CUTTER, SLICED THE BOX OPEN CAREFULLY, AND CARRIED THE PARTS INTO THE BEDROOM A FEW AT A TIME.
ANOTHER REVIEW COMPLAINED ABOUT THE DRAWERS, SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF THEM NOT HOLDING ANYTHING HEAVY. WELL, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO PUT IN THEM, HEAVY BOOKS? OUR DRAWERS SLIDE OPEN FINE AND MY SON IS USING THE DRAWERS FOR SOCKS, UNDERGARMENTS, AND THE 3RD FOR LIGHT TOYS HE HAS. NO PROBLEMS.
THE ONLY BAD THING I CAN SAY IS THAT IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH WEIGHT THE BED IS DESIGNED TO HOLD. MY SON WEIGHS 120 LBS AND WILL GET BIGGER.
I SAT ON IT AND IT DIDNT FLINTCH. I JUST TOLD HIM NOT TO JUMP UP AND DOWN ON IT, I MEAN, HOW HARDY DOES A PIECE A FURNITURE HAVE TO BE? IT'S JUST COMMON SENSE, TAKE CARE OF YOUR PURCHASE AND THIS WILL BE A GREAT BED FOR YOUR KID OR TEEN.
THE THING I LIKED BEST ABOUT IT WAS THE PRICE AND THE LOOKS. I PLAN ON ADDING THE MATCHING HEADBOARD AND END TABLES IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
IT IS ALSO REALLY GREAT, IF YOU HAVE PETS SUCH AS CATS THAT GO UNDER YOUR BED AND PLAY AND MAKE NOISE, BECAUSE THEY CAN'T GO UNDER THIS BED!
I WILL UPLOAD PICS OF MY ITEM FOR CUSTOMERS TO VIEW.
