Impressive buy!
I ordered this futon frame last week & received it with 3 days which was great. I already owned a nice futon mattress, so I was just replacing the frame itself this time. I did my research and went with the Aiden Metal Frame and am very impressed so far. The box it arrived in was nice and compact (I was concerned about FedEX leaving a massive box in my apartment hallway until I got home from work), so that was a plus. My boyfriend assembled it & it took about 3 hours from start to finish; it was a little tedious but overall not too bad). Its well made for the price and I had no issues with missing parts; it also opens and closes nicely just like my old frame. The only critique I have is that it sits a little too low to the ground, but once I put my deluxe mattress on it I was satisfied. Overall, I am highly impressed and very pleased with my purchase. This was exactly what I was looking for, and I was so pleased that I had to write a review!

    DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. THIS. MESS. IS. GARBAGE.
    I bought this in October, 2021. It began breaking in February, 2022. It is now July 2022 and this frame is a pitiful MESS of broken metal bars MESSY MESS on the FLOOR. Did I say MESS enough times? GARBAGE. I would give no stars, but it won't let you. Don't buy this TRASH unless you plan to replace it within 6 months!!! Spend money on a real sofa bed. Don't waste your money like i did!

    Massive disappointment.
    wow very disappointing. got it all together, put my futon matress on. went to fold it up and the hinges failed. sat there confused for a solid minute till i lifted the matress to check why it wouldn't fold just to see the hinge bent like it was made of copper. the pictures dont do justice, i bent em back so i could fold it. shouldve taken my pictures before hand.

    nice frame - if mattress is LIGHT had a year now
    oh man, I got the DHP 8" mattress too, it weighs 78 pounds! I've had this and mattress a year now, so consider my review as " legit from time used". Frame looks great, easy to assemble, everything is A - UNTIL you have to convert it to a bed, and worse, back to sofa. Just too light to handle an 80 pound mattress. Our back's ache just thinking about time to convert! front legs come off floor from weight of mattress, back legs same thing trying to bring it back up. If you have a heavy mattress, get a frame with some weight! I'm shopping for a new frame right now and had to share the experience get a zippered mattress cover- sell em here, mainstays I think- it'll help a ton

    nice, contemporary frame
    color is what we wanted, holds 80 lb mattress easily. only con is it's very light and hard to maneuver when trying to close the frame. I think with practice it'll get easier. I do recommend. Pic was used for mattress cover review, spoiled dog hindered a pic of frame alone! nice frame

    Not what expected.
    I was disappointed in the frame and spring structure. For a 600 lb. limit I found the frame inadequate to carry that weight for any length of time. The unit,may work well as a sofabut as a bed it a no go. Middle frame supports are poor, and I find the overall design and assembly lacking.

    Good Frame
    I'm 60 years old and bought this for the guest room to turn into a bed. I assembled the entire thing myself and had little-to-no problems. The instructions were pretty good with only a little confusion as the pictures didn't always show the best angles in which to hold some bars that would be attached, but I figured it out through common sense. It's pretty sturdy and holds the heavy 8" mattress well. Our guests sleep very comfortably they say, and it's a nice to look at too. I recommend this frame even if you have funds to buy something more expensive. There's no reason. The only drawback, and this is minor, is that the mattress sits over the edge of the frame by about 12 inches. This is normal for any futon, I think. So you can't sit on the edge of the bed like on a conventional bed else it tips and you might find yourself on the floor lol. If you sit on the bed you have to sit back farther if you're tying your shoe. Other than that, I'm happy with it and don't regret anything.

    Very surprised at quality.
    Considering the price this is a very good investment. The reviews I read prior to purchasing were accurate. The mattress arrives in a duffle type bag and you would not think much of it until you unpack it. The only problem I had was after allowing the mattress the lie flat for 48 hours (as the instructions stated), it was difficult to put the futon into the sofa position. You need to be able to get behind the futon to pull the frame up into position. The mattress is so thick it is a bit difficult, but the quality of the mattress makes it worth it. The company that makes the frame were very nice when I called to request two pieces (the plastic stoppers that go into the frame) that were missing. However, it did not interfere with putting the frame together nor the functioning of the futon. They shipped the pieces and I was able to put them in place with no problem. Overall, an excellent buy. The only reason I did not give it an Excellent overall rating was I have only had it a couple of weeks.

    Aiden Metal Futon Frame, Black
    This is a one great futon frame. Mind you, it is just the frame and you will have to buy the mattress separately. Honestly, it takes some time to build and you have to be comfortable with tools and you need space to work it. It is also large so see if you don't have enough space, consider commandeering your neighbor's apartment under the premise of "Manifest Destiny". Once the futon is built, you can just move the frame back to your apartment and explain it was all a mistake, that you misunderstood the constitution (blah, blah - you get the idea) and then send them a gift for their discomfort (flowers, wine, theater tickets - if you make them homeless while you used the space it their apartment, it may be a good idea to send all three). It was easy to follow instructions, but expect to be at it for about two hours (total) because it can be exhausting! Once the futon is built, it seems pretty sturdy. I like it.
