We purchased this frame to prevent items from getting misplaced under the bed.  Assembly was a snap and the frame has lived up to its promise of durability and effectiveness.  Our only concern is the inability to get your foot under the bed when making it.  The platform provides a shallow step in but does not allow you to get right up to the bed.  Still, for our purposes, it is the ideal solution to lost hearing aids, socks, keys, and other items that fall on the floor and pose a danger to my dad's safety.
