This review is from: American Furniture Alliance Modern Loft Evolution Full Metal Futon Frame, Black (Kitchen) We bought this for our guest bedroom which already had a pretty nice futon mattress. If you had a cheap mattress or a thinner one, you might be able to feel the slats since they are fairly thin and spaced about 6" apart. My husband and I are both engineers and fairly handy, so we didn't have much trouble putting it together even though the directions were pretty awful. The frame is fairly lightweight at about 55 pounds (our wooden futon frame is well over 100lbs) and we were a bit worried about strength, but with a mattress on, it seems pretty sturdy. We have about a 50lb mattress and it slept 2 adults without much flexing, but if you anticipate larger people or *ahem* active people, you might want to look at something a bit stronger! 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: American Furniture Alliance Modern Loft Evolution Full Metal Futon Frame, Black (Kitchen) The product looks alright, but comes with no instructions to put it together. Also they missed some of the bolts and nuts for assembly and had some wrong parts.
I agree with the other reviews tough to assemble especially with no instructions. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful: By janieinMN (Minnesota USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: American Furniture Alliance Modern Loft Evolution Full Metal Futon Frame, Black (Kitchen) we purchased the evolution futon frame (queen) to use with an 8" mattress -- going with an all metal frame because of severe allergies & multiple chemical sensitivities -- the round bars of the frame are spaced too far apart (approx 5/8" diameter and > 5 inches apart) -- you can feel them thru the mattress (due to design, there's no way to add further support slats) -- causing back pain for my husband and hip pain for me... we eventually just moved the mattress to the floor for laying on and the difference was immediate relief!! now we're having to shop for another futon frame that has slats of appropriate width & spacing. we are EXTREMELY unhappy with this purchase!!! |
