I bought just the hardware package and provided my own wood. Not only did I save over half the money but I also was able to customize the width of my frame as well as round the corners slightly to eliminate that sharp edge.
Helpful info. Just bought the hardware, but building my own panels. I'll be sure to shrink them down to fit the mattress, round the sharp corners and add some bracing behind the headboard.
Yes those overhangs will fuck up your ankles and the pain is no joke it has brought me to tears many many times but I do like the excusive over hang though lol. I love the bed.
Thank you for this awesome review. I’m considering this bed and the Pebble and beach one. Not sure which I’m going to get yet but I do love the modular design of the Floyd bed.
Glad it was helpful! I haven’t heard of the Pebble and beach bed frame but definitely love the design of the Floyd - it really is a nice looking bed frame
Thank you for saving me a couple thousand on a king platform that appears to be pretty cheap honestly....wish I was handy enough to just cut panels on my own.
I had a low profile bed for yrs and the first thing I thought of when see this was my shins. They still have phantom pain from my time with that bed. Loved it, but painful.
i have 2 questions: could you share the exact length of your mattress? i looked it up but the website just provides the general 76 x 80. and can you share the distance between the edge of the bed frame (top part against the wall) and where the top of the mattress sits? i noticed the mattress looks like its sitting really far to the bottom of the frame compared to the model photos i see online and so im assuming the headboard is causing it to sit further down. im planning to get panels from another company and am trying to figure out if i need to add a couple inches to the length to make the sides more even in space leftover.
It's difficult to say. It may be best to measure your mattress's width and compare it against the width of the queen bed frame to see what, if any, overhang would be present
100% frame is way to large for a king and I have the exact same issue. Veneer and panels feel super weak and hollow. Totally agree. Would not buy this bed if given another opportunity.
I'm really not sure of a way to customize the headboard - I believe you'd have to use some different type of mounting brackets aside from the ones that are included with the bed frame
I don't think a king mattress would work with their queen bed frame based on the size of the panels. You'd likely want a king on a king - I just wanted to give you a heads up on what to expect before ordering
From my understanding, a California King (84" tall by 72" wide) mattress is actually a little smaller than a regular King (80" tall by 76" wide). We have a King mattress
huh. we haven't actually had this positive an experience with floyd. the customer service is terrible and literally takes days to not actually care enough to really understand the issue of the item simply not fitting. the queen frame is ridiculously wide (it's the same as a king, obviously, not the same as a full), to the point where it can't be easily transported without a rental van. the delivery required an 8 hour window, which meant that i had to get it delivered to my job, so now i need to rent a vehicle to get it to my place, where in order to return it i must first verify all contents of two boxes, one of which may or may not have a certificate of authenticity which is required if present but might not be present! then i need to repack into the original packaging and take it to the shipping site which is like a half day event. and now your video tells me it isn't even made of solid wood, but some kind of hollow bullshit? so it's not even sturdy? well. thanks for the heads up. i can't imagine a worse company to deal with. never again.

Floyd bed frame made of cardboard - DON'T BUY! I have Floyd Platform bed frame - the birch plywood (King size) that I bought a few years ago for over $2000. We moved to a new place that has a smaller room. To reduce the overhang of the frame on either side, I decided to reduce the width of the 22inch panel to 1ft by cutting it along the length with a circular saw. Lo and behold, I see that the thing is made of cardboard! The construction is just two 6mm plywood supported with cardboard all through. I would have atleast expected the thing to be supported with thicker plywood for support.   
The bed is a trend and you buy it for looks like you just stated. Is not practical you’re paying for looks. Bet the update version will be rounded ages and people will still get it. Trend and looks is what people want NOT practicality. You buy a Tesla for looks and trend not cuz is a good car or cuz it changes the world.
i mean yeah but there's no shame with that. I am a consumer who LOVES and highly values the looks of things. Love Tesla and this beds look...so to each their own.
It's actually way more practical than my current bed which looks amazing but is hard to make regularly cause of posts and sides, with this bed its easy to make and see hospital corners, it does seem over priced though
I was just about to process my order for the exact same bed frame; walnut color. This video was extremely helpful! Thank you
I bought just the hardware package and provided my own wood. Not only did I save over half the money but I also was able to customize the width of my frame as well as round the corners slightly to eliminate that sharp edge.
Great idea! Solves a lot of the issues we ran into
@sebastian u can also stain each side 2 different shades or colors so u can change it up when u get bored! Flip and done
what a great idea!
@@travismcleod5078
Where did you source the wood?
Quick question, what wood did you get and what store
Thanks for this! I've been on the fence over this bed.
Glad I could help!
Thank you SO much for this video!!
Glad it was helpful!

I felt a pain in the leg just by looking at 2:23. Can you imagine bumping into that corner in the middle of the night🤣🤣🤣
Thanks so much for this video!
You bet!
Hey can’t wait to see rove concepts reviews! Have wanted to purchase from them for quite some time but finding mixed reviews
Yes those overhangs will fuck up your ankles and the pain is no joke it has brought me to tears many many times but I do like the excusive over hang though lol. I love the bed.
Lol just have to learn to avoid them!
I'll spend the extra and get a thuma bed frame.
Thanks for the review!

They make little clear corner covers that are for baby-proofing. They round sharp corners....or, the classic, a cut tennis ball shoved on it!

The edge actually looks really modern and sleek imo though it’s definitely dangerous.
You can easily make one yourself, my buddy got one, I copied some features and got rid of corners and he preferred mine over that.
Nice! Definitely seems like a bed you'd be able to copy and allow you to do whatever dimensions you like
Good job I would not buy that bed 🛏️ for me it's too down I like my bed higher
that sharp edge is unacceptable!
Hi, do you have the link where you purshased it?
Considering how big the king size frame is, do you think your king-size mattress would fit comfortably in a queen size bed frame?
It's difficult to say. It may be best to measure your mattress's width and compare it against the width of the queen bed frame to see what, if any, overhang would be present
Great review , actually picking one of these up today ! Was going to ask what mattress is on the bed ?
Thank you! We ended up going with a Tempur Pedic Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid which has been awesome - super comfortable and would recommend.
Awesome I’ll check it out thanks agian !
100% frame is way to large for a king and I have the exact same issue. Veneer and panels feel super weak and hollow. Totally agree. Would not buy this bed if given another opportunity.
Hello, would you able to customize the headboard to make it more solid?
I'm really not sure of a way to customize the headboard - I believe you'd have to use some different type of mounting brackets aside from the ones that are included with the bed frame
Hi! Can you downsize a king to a queen bed frame if needed?
I believe so. From my understanding, the only difference between the king and the queen is one extra panel
so you recommend getting a queen size for a king mattress?
I don't think a king mattress would work with their queen bed frame based on the size of the panels. You'd likely want a king on a king - I just wanted to give you a heads up on what to expect before ordering
What is the brand of the comforter/sheets?
They're from Brooklinen - the Luxe Sheet Bundle in Graphite
Shin destroyers
What bedding are you using here?
They're from Brooklinen - the Luxe Sheet Bundle in Graphite
Send it back.
Dude return it then! U should have looked at the measurements or looked at other videos of people with the king to see what it looked like prior!
Great for banging your shins… for sure!
They had a California king mattress on the website
From my understanding, a California King (84" tall by 72" wide) mattress is actually a little smaller than a regular King (80" tall by 76" wide). We have a King mattress
Yeah shin destroyer
Be honest….. does the mattress and or bed move during sexy time?

Ahh sorry to hear you had this experience. Floyd quality definitely isn't the best from what we've run into which is pretty disappointing

That bed is to low for me I have back and knee problems I would have a very hard time getting off that bed sorry not for me

Head board moves! Bad buy.!
