Modus Furniture Newport Queen Size Platform Bed, Cordovan
The bed has a very clean and simple design. Ordered it on a Wednesday and arrived by Tuesday via a private trucking service. The packaging was good enough to ensure no damage. All the stated parts were there when I unpacked. The instructions were simple and straightforward and it took me about an hour to put it together. Like some of the other reviewers I also had some holes in the center support plank which did not line up. As a result I ended up with a few unused screws. No big deal. Though there are holes on both sides of the individual support planks, it seems that it was designed so as to use only one screw on each plank. Also, most of the wooden planks are not long enough to sit atop the predrilled holes on each side of the bed panels. If you forcefully attempt to put in the screws on both sides you risk breaking the protruding wood on the bed side panels. I put one screw per plank on alternating sides. The bed looks good in the room and I am pleased with this purchase.
2/22/2011 - Update - Bed is looking good, but 2 issues are - 1.ever since installing it in the bedroom there has been a constant thin layer of wood dust particles on the floor around the railings of the bed and sometimes within the bed area also; 2.some of the legs to support the center of the bed keep falling off despite being screwed back into place.
1. I am constantly vacuuming the fine wood dust remnants emanating from the bed off the floor every week. The problem seems to be the wooden slats that go under and support the mattress. The pieces I got were raw wood pieces and also seemed like soft wood. It's too bad the manufacturers decided to use cheap wood for the slats. Just a little better quality slats would have made this purchase hassle free.
2. The legs meant for center vertical support on the queen bed should have been designed better so that it would do its job and stay in place. Two of mine are now cracked so that they will not screw into place any more. Maybe a two prong leg design may have provided more stability.
