Structures by Malouf HIGHRISE Folding Metal Bed Frame 14" High Bi-Fold Platform Bed Base and Box Spring Review

I know you're out there. I know you've looked at this frame a few times and thought, "gosh, it sounds good, but we're such BIG people..." and you've clicked away and continued to suffer with whatever bed setup you currently have.

Well, you are who I want to talk to...

Between my husband and I, we're looking at 650lbs(That's my fault, in case anyone wants to poke fun at the fatties - feel free to give me whatever grief your smug self needs to if it makes you feel better). Add the weight of a king sized 10" memory foam mattress and a 4" memory foam topper, and I definitely had some concerns about just how stable and strong this frame could be in light of that. But I'm a risk taker, so I took the plunge and ordered it.

I can tell you - my fears were unfounded. I am actually shocked and surprised by how strong this frame truly is. You look at the pictures and you think, "no way that's going to hold us." You pull it out of the box the first time and think, "I shouldn't even bother unwrapping this - it can't possibly be strong enough." But you take a chance and you put it together, and you take a deep breath while a bit of fear flutters through you... and you gingerly lower yourself down onto it. You think to yourself, "ok, so far so good... but once I lay down or try to roll over... that'll be it. This is going to collapse and I'm going to be trying to call 911 from the floor where I'm trapped inside this thing."

I tell you true - your fears are as unfounded as mine are.

I don't know enough about engineering to explain how they've managed to develop such a light-weight frame that can withstand the weight we're putting on it, I simply know they've done it. I don't know what magic spell they had to weave, but it must have been a good one. It worked and it worked well.

Some additional information that is generally useful to anyone considering this purchase:

1. We also bought the Structures by Malouf HIGHRISE Headboard/Footboard Bracket Set of 2. It was a bit of a PITA to attach to our existing headboard, but it worked well once attached. One recommendation here, particularly for large people - if your headboard is not tightly flush against the wall, you're going to want to place some sort of block or padding between the headboard and the wall. I think it has to do with the height at which the bracket set attaches to the headboard, but it does not seem to hold it completely straight or as firmly as I'd like. Then again, because of our room layout and window ledge, our headboard can't be flush to the wall, so that may make a difference.

2. You'll need to make sure that the legs have LOCKED into position and, if you've got the king-size, that you have used the hard rubber/plastic "clips" to connect the two frames together. Don't skip these!

3. You're using a memory foam mattress here, ladies & gents. That means it is soft and malleable. Now look at the frame - see how it has spaces between the support bars? Ok, two points -
a) No, you will not feel those thin bars/rails through your mattress. This assumes, of course, that you have a halfway decent memory foam mattress of reasonable thickness. I would think anything thinner than 8" could be an issue.
b) Yes, edges at the top and bottom of your mattress MAY compress down a bit into the gaps between the thick outer rails of the frame and the first inner rows of the thin bars. This shouldn't be an issue while you're sleeping - but it does mean that it's going to tug your pretty 14" dust ruffle up so that it no longer touches the ground. My advice? Get a longer ruffle to compensate for this.

4. We tried three different setups with our 10" memory foam mattress & our 4" memory foam topper. First we did just the 10" - for me, that was a tiny bit too firm. I have been going through a series of 14 surgeries on my back (this, for the haters, is why I've gotten so fat), and so I am very VERY sensitive to any pressure points. I could not feel the individual rails of the frame, not even the tiniest bit - just the overall surface was a bit too firm. Then we put the 4" topper on top. WAYYYYYY too squishy! Much hilarity ensued in getting me back out of the pit of foam I'd sunk into. Hubby said, "let's put it underneath the mattress." That was our Goldilocks moment (minus the angry bears, I'm glad to say).

5. Your first night or two you may wake up with a stiff neck or back. Don't give up. Your body is adjusting to being properly supported by the correct combination of a memory foam mattress and a frame that's actually perfectly designed to optimize that mattress.

6. It is wonderful having so much clearance under the frame. You know those boxy fabric drawers that are so popular lately? They fit fantastically beneath this frame! So nice to have that extra storage for space bag totes full of extra blankets and the fabric drawers for sheet sets and whatever else you want to keep down there! I've set up 3 drawers already, each of which has one set of sheets & pillowcases. I can change the sheets, take the used ones to the laundry room IN the newly-vacated drawer, run them through the wash and fold them up right back into the drawer and then take it back to the bedroom and slide it back into place. Awesome!

I really do suggest giving this frame a try. I think you will be as pleasantly surprised as we were. We're intending to buy more of these to replace the other frames in our house, and we've discussed buying an extra set of twins (with memory foam mattresses) to store in the closet in case we need extra temporary bedding for additional guests in the future. I mean, imagine how easy it would be to find space somewhere in a closet to store enough bedding for two people in a space that is no bigger than the space your dishwasher currently occupies. Lovely!
