Customer comments about Parsons Queen Bed:
I am furnishing my new living space very modestly. The new parsons bed frame is very subtle, humble and simple. I appreciate it construction and weight. This bed frame is very sturdy and well constructed. The simplicity is very wonderful.

Customer comments about Parsons Queen Bed:
After going through three other beds from a competitor, I was so happy to finally end up with the Parsons bed. I can honestly say this is the best built bed frame I've ever owned. I ordered the additional platform supports as I have a foam mattress. I had the bed made and looking stylish in no time. The real test came when I crawled in that night to sleep. Unlike my previous beds, this bed was whisper quiet. No creaks, or squeaks, or sagging undercarriage. I was so happy. The frame itself is very solid, and doesn't move or slide around on my hardwood floor. I couldn't be more happy.
Service and delivery comments:
The bed arrived promptly and was assembled by the professional team in less than 10 mins. The delivery team was friendly, on-time, and very knowledgable.

Customer comments about Parsons Queen Bed:
This bed is fantastic. It was so simple to put together and I couldn't imagine a more sturdy bed. I would say that it's not as easy to make the bed as it would be with a box spring, but it's not challenging enough to list as a con. I will have this bed forever; well worth the money spent!
Service and delivery comments:
I picked up my bed instead of having it delivered. I expected it to be in a box and was surprised that we had to wrap it all up in blankets to get it home.

Customer comments about Parsons King Standard Bed:
The Parsons bed has been fantastic, as were the delivery guys. They showed up in a cold snowstorm, and were in and out in maybe ten minutes max. And right on time. The bed itself is real high quality, the finish is great, and it is very sturdy, no squeeks or wobbles of any kind. And my mattress fits great too. I couldn't be happier.

Customer comments about Parsons Queen Bed:
The bed is as solid as they come and made my existing mattress and half-height box spring incredibly more comfortable than they had been on previous old wooden bed frame. There is also a good deal of storage space underneath.

Customer comments about Parsons Full Bed:
I bought this bed for my 8 year old son straight off the website. We were happily surprised when it got delivered. I love how it blends into his vintage modern bedroom. Sleek lines and sturdy construction - a must for an active boy. We are very happy with the quality and finish. Kids are hard on furniture. This is a bed that will last him beyond college. I highly recommend it for an adult room or kids room.
We got the tallest bed to use the underneath as extra storage and it comfortably accommodates bins, toys, and so much more.

Customer comments about Parsons Queen Bed:
This is the perfect bed. I love how high the bed is. It makes me feel like a little kid jumping into a big bed again. It's heavy duty and I've had no squeaks. This bed is built to last for a very long time. I also like how thick the steel tubing is. You can use the headboard as a shelf for small items like a glass of water, phone handset, small alarm clock, box of tissues, etc. The footboard can be a little cold to your feet if you happen to touch it. Overall, I absolutely love this bed. It was the perfect choice for me.

Customer comments about Parsons Queen Bed:
Great bed with minimalist design and clean lines. Looks perfect in my bedroom. Paired with a R&B matress. Sits a little higher than other beds without a box springs.

- Parsons Queen Bed
Q:
Could I put two parsons twin beds together to make a king size bed? (Yet still have the option of two twin beds?) How much gap would there be between the two mattresses?
-VAsked on 6/18/2013 by Beginner Bed/Breakfast from Cincinnati, OH1 answer
DESIGN ASSOCIATE
A:
Two beds could always be put side-by-side and with the Parsons as the side rails are almost flush with the frame but there could be up to another inch for each mattress within its support system. Mattress edge stitching pulls down the edges slightly so the users would be likely to feel a small gap or indent of an inch or two.Answered on 6/18/2013 by Design Associate from Room & Board

Q:
Will the headboard and footboard be attached after delivery so that it can fit through doorways, staircases? Or is it one piece?Asked on 4/28/2013 by Sarah from United States1 answer
DESIGN ASSOCIATE
A:
The Parsons and all of our beds are assembled at delivery. Yes, the headboard and footboard connect with side rails as you'd thought.. As you think of delivery the headboard is the largest piece and its dimensions are what you'll want to consider for fit into your space.Answered on 4/29/2013 by Design Associate from Room & Board
