I was lusting to buy this bed until I saw the headboard. It's just basically a rigid pillow. I decided I want something a bit more substantial than that. The frame though looks perfect.
You're right. It's an entry level headboard. More minimalist. It's all up to what your needs are. We needed something simple in our "apartment phase" of life.
@@IvanBustos The point is pretty obvious so I didn't expect further clarification was necessary but the simple answer is: on avg. housing prices have and continue to increase significantly relative to earnings, meaning less total people can afford a house than previously. Other reasons are population increases, city-centric work and the sustainability plan (moving rural populations to urban), among others.
@@IvanBustos The fact you and individuals in your circle bought homes means nothing. This is an anecdotal perspective for starters but more importantly, whilst some millennials can (obviously) afford a home and will continue to purchase homes from now into the future, the idea is less millennials will be home owners than any other recent generation and from this point onwards, that is a likely trend to continue.
Thanks for this review. I wouldn't want to pay $1000 for a bed that wobbles and has a headboard that is simply a cushion and requires a wall to support it. I love the idea of this bed, but I would have been disappointed.
i love mine, highest quality bed ive ever owned. Nothing like other slat beds, the slats have felt fabric on the ends of them, so they are padded and dont make noise, and they make different accessories for the bed that match. There is a fabric sleeve that can hold a laptop / books / your glasses off the side of the bed, or they make night stands that match... i have the nightstand too. All of their stuff is super solid and will last a looooong time
Interesting, I have zero wobble for mine, it really makes a difference once you start putting weight i think as it settles and the way theirs wobbles has to be defective!
@@michaelhinchey I thought that, too, but just looked at several others similar or other styles on Etsy and, at least the ones I was interested in, were quite a bit more expensive.
I just made one of these for my daughter. It also wobbles a little bit. I don’t feel nearly as bad now that I see the Thuma bed also wobbles. For those of you wondering about the wobbles, it’s the design of the bed that causes this. The parts fit together fairly tightly, but can’t be too tight, otherwise they would be harder to assemble/disassemble. The small gaps in the joints translate to wobble with the application of horizontal force. Sort of a trade off for not having more hardware to hold it together
Has the bed gotten to be more stable or does it still wobble like that? I am on the market for a new bed myself and like the Thuma design, but for $900 USD for a queen size (price went up recently) the bed should not budge.
I’m wondering the same thing. I’m guessing it’s due to the construction with how it fits together with no screws. It seems like when he was jumping and flopping on it, it didn’t wobble but moving the frame did. I’m trying to look for some long term reviews on it.
We fell for it too!! Bed looks incredible and everyone has so many good things to say about it. How long did it take for you to receive the bed? We ordered ours last week and were told a month or so.
I preordered and it was supposed to arrive mid-late Sept, but they just sent a note saying it was here and would ship next week. (They also warned of possible fed ex delay)
It took about a month but FedEx is not performing very well right now. One day it said it was coming. The next day it said it was back in LA. So overall, I think it took about a month + 1 week. We're very happy with the bed. Glad we waiting :)
I've seen many advertisements promoting the Thuma bed frame and I've read a few reviews. The bed frame seems excellent in every way except for the price. It is outrageously expensive! Also, like many people have said, why must we also purchase the head board? I'm afraid it's because of the hefty cost and no standalone bed frame option that I will have to pass on this purchase. I'm not writing to bitch and complain. I'm writing because I know that the Thuman bed frame is an excellent product and I want Thuma to succeed. All the best.
@@gavinostertag1023 $900 for a bed frame? That's absolutely crazy. $1,000 for a smart phone? That's absolutely crazy. This reminds me of my niece when she doesn't get her way, "But mom, it's only money!"
@@paigoomein Yeah, that's true. It is still a pretty hard wood and quite a good quality bed. We ended up buying one around 6 months ago and have loved it.
Ty for sharing. Idk for 1000 bucks i would think that it would be much more solid. Just sayin. Im on a fixed budget so i think ill go for a more reasonably priced one. You could wedge tiny pieces of wood in the gaps...? I guess but you shouldn't have to for $1000 bux!!! Blessings to you two!!
Have you grabbed it by the end plank and pulled it towards yourself? We didn't notice any noise at all with it, but when I apply some force while pulling, it does rattle.
5:30 You damn right you'll be hearing the knocking noise when you're "knocking."

I this is the review that I wanted. I wanted to see someone belly flop and jump onto this bed. this should be on every bedframe commercial

I didn’t buy it because of the cushion headboard. But they just recently released a headboard so I’m considering it again.
It seems overpriced but the it’s really sturdy and doesn’t make any kind of noise !!! I just bought a second one for my son
it isn't expensive
@@australianpatriot Over a 1000 for a bed frame is pretty pricey. But I guess that could be subjective depending on your budget.
@@michaelhinchey 1000usd is somewhat

My bed doesn’t wobble at all.
@@Mitsu3kGT what do you have?
@@JMSsssssss The bed by Thuma
Hey you can woodwork and make your own beds!!! Thats priceless!!!
The ultimate test is definitely sex. Not a belly flop😆
hey there, what's your long term review on it? I'm looking at potentially purchasing.
Saw this on IG and glad to know you guys have a Purple mattress since I have one as well. Good info to know!

I think one could glue some felt pieces to the joints to make the rattle quiet.
How has it held up over time?
It's amazing! We just bought another King Bed and put the Queen in our guest room! This is about 4 years later now.

How do you like yours?
How is the bed ??
Does the headboard not attach to the frame? Just sits on the frame and leans on the wall?
Yes. Only thing I dislike from this bed

It’s honestly not that much for a well crafted walnut bed frame made by real people. Ikea price ikea quality, this is considerably better

ITS WORTH IT TRUST ME! You get what you pay for! You will see the quality when you have it in front of you.
@@gavinostertag1023 Just started looking into these frames, and noticed that there's walnut stain, but the wood itself is rubberwood.
@@paigoomein Yeah, that's true. It is still a pretty hard wood and quite a good quality bed. We ended up buying one around 6 months ago and have loved it.
thank you for this i also have a purple mattress so its nice to see that they fit
Thanks for the review! It was helpful. I’ll be getting one today. I saw it on an NYT review.
Love my frame!
Just bought 3, hopefully they are good
I loved the idea but I have a purple and seeing how it moves and gifts the corner of the bed, can't have that.
Just got my new frame. Unfortunately my sheets haven't come in yet so I can't try it out yet.
5:32 you are here for this review
ive been seeing these ads EVERYWHEREEEE

I wanted to see how noisy and study it was and you honestly did exactly what I would do hahaha i liked when he started humping
I have the same bed and the joints fit just right. They don't rattle at all. Perhaps it is the quality issue. Check with the company.
Have you grabbed it by the end plank and pulled it towards yourself? We didn't notice any noise at all with it, but when I apply some force while pulling, it does rattle.
@@realmaxbondar Yes. I did. Solid. No rattling.
humidity will effect the tightness of the joint.
Where is your dresser from? It looks nice!
Just pulled the trigger on this too
Did you get the bed? Have heard some bad things that there isn’t a phone number for them
@@monicahurd6637 I love this bed. Had it for almost a year. My baby nephew likes it too lol
I was scared because bad reviews of not Received or long shipping
That’s there’s also no phone to reach customer care
@@monicahurd6637 there's an email I think because the delivery comes separate if I remember correctly.
Excellent product
Don't bother knock'n if you hear the Thuma bed rock'n ?
Ha! Watch out, we rock and roll the Thuma is actually dead silent.
Could you please tell us what colour it is (the frame) ? Natural or walnut ?
I just got mine today and its the same one as shown in the video its walnut with charcoal headboard
It's been a few days!
does a box spring need to be placed UNDER the mattress??
no.
man that bed looks so great, unlucky that it is not avalible in europe :(
Hi! What color bed frame did you choose? I wasn’t able to catch it? Walnut or Natural?
Walnut
Can you give us an update now? Would you still go with it? Has it rocked more with sexy time? Do you knock your shins or legs on the corners?
Haha! Its a great bed! Withstands all sorts of knocking. No regrets!
They want $1,095 for a king size. 😳
$1,195 actually... $1,095 for the queen lol it's crazy... thinking about building one myself...
Because stupid mdf and particleboard have become the norm. Now you have to pay premium if you don’t want crap materials.
It’s double that now, sadly.
Is this a queen or king?
Queen
I can make one that wobbles for about $200. I’ll go that route. 😂
May I ask which purple mattress you have? There are a few different types and qualities?
It is the original. Bought it for $1000 and we've had it for about 3 years now. It looks like it's now $599 brand new and I would highly recommend it.
Where did you get those dressers :)
This review made me not buy. Looks cheap... the head board is just a pillow? I bought from west elm.
Sure, if you want to spend roughly $800 to $1000 more on average than what the Thuma costs, then go ahead and order something from West Elm lol
Not cheap at all, just got mine and quality is outstanding!
Time to save up!
HAHAHAHAHHA BRO THE NOISE
I was considering buying but for the price it should include the mattress its ridiculous
I thought that it did which ia why i was really interested
We're planning to keep it for 5+ years. If you divide the cost over that period, it aint much. It's very solid and we're very happy with it.
Bed frames are mattresses are very expensive. Most mattresses are $1000 by themselves these days.
The price is very good for the quality. I am a customer and just got my bed and the quality of the bed blew me away! You get what you pay for.
You must buy some doo doo tier mattresses.
LOL, downtown Portland. Ouch!
lol
Please provide the Amazon link of this 🟣purple mattress
I dont think they sell that on Amazon.
How tall is your purple mattress?
It's the original and it's about 9" tal
Thank you!
It will be ok for adult activities
Thanks for the video
Did you order the full or queen size frame?
Queen
Can you say me!!?? when you body begin love, the thuma bed made sound ekekeke ekekek ekekeke ekekek?
I'm over here thinking 1000 bucks is nothing and everyone complaining about the price. Woops.
Beds be like: bed
That headboard pillow sucks
Park Ave West? That's where I lived before buying my first home in June.
Does it make that rocking noise when having sex?
No :)
Does it squeak
Nope!
If you want to skip the bs, go to 1:04
The video is only 6 minutes long.
This is a Thuma Frame review, not a Thuma bed review.
That shirt is distractingly tight. Work out more.
Edit: Or buy a size larger.
