Hi! How do you make the bed when this is attached? Thanks!

It straps to the frame indeed the mattress. There's enough space between the rail and mattress to maneuver the sheets and blankets between.

I simply leave the rail in place, remove the bedding and replace the bedding. No problem at all. Hope this helps Mr T!

You have to work around it or remove it. The safety factor outweighs the inconvenience and aesthetics.

I am able to get the fitted sheet on properly but I leave the rail side turned down. It still looks neat and is better than trying to tuck everything in around the rail, which looks messy.

the rail really didn't interfere with the sheet at all, the blanket just needs to be folder over.

It's really not a problem since the device attaches between the mattress and the boxsprings. You can easily tuck in a sheet. But if you have those frilly curtain like things that go down past the box springs, they will either have to be bunched up around the device or removed (which is what I did). All and all I can't say enough good things about this rail; I don't know how I got by without it before.

This should not impede making the bed. It should accommodate the fitted sheet and flat sheet fine.

I had the same experience at the beginning, but I took it apart and looked at the directions again. they are not the clearest but once I figured how it should go, it turned out well and it's a great bed. sturdy and unshakable. good make and great deal. good luck

Hey I would contact the seller via email and let them know. The instructions are simple and just one page. The bed is still going strong here so it is worth the effort. They should be able to send you a copy or you can type in product info on google to see if instructions are online. Good luck

I'm sorry, I can't help! My son put it together and if I remember correctly, it was a pain. Good luck!

You have to screw all the pieces together. The bed is about a foot off the ground. My teenage daughter loves hers.

Make sure you look at the pictures and match the letters to the pictures. It will take at least 2 hours to assemble, possibly longer if you have never done this before. USE WOOD GLUE and extra screws to stabilize the frame (I screwed 1.5" wood screws into the ends of cross braces; I knew I would be moving the bed to rearrange the room, from time to time, and moving the bed will loosen the frame; make sure you do not put additional screws into the drawer area!); if you do not have a cordless drill or are unsure of how to use the additional screws, the wood glue should be enough to make it more stable. Use the wood glue on ALL of the unfinished end boards that butt into predrilled holes. If I have confused you, please feel free to direct email me at (remove all the spaces in the following address): n w m l d r @ g m a i l . c o m I believe I paid less than $200 for my queen size bed frame-most likely far LESS, since I like to shop for a bargain!

I have no idea, how ever you could attach the head board to the wall, (can you say big long screws) and then slide the bed up to the head board.

My husband put it together. Once you take the bed out of the box, there were some instructions he thought in the box. He laid out the pieces, though, and it was fairly easy to figure out which pieces connected to each other. Hope this helps.

My husband had to jerry- rig the an extension to the frame to connect the foot board. I would by the bed frame extender&gt;Love this bed frame it looks so nice!

Bed is great. The only problem is the two pieces of particle board that they use for the main support. We just found out during the week that it is starting to break so now over the weekend we have to go switch out the particle board for real wood. Other than that we haven't had any problems with the bed. Its not like its a metal or normal frame that moves, so you don't get any noises from it. Drawers pull out without any problems and noises as well.

Although i don't have mine attached. The cosleeper includes tethers to attache it to the bed. Armsreach recommends attaching it.

I haven't tried yet, but seeing as you put it on, after putting the bed together, it should come off when taking the bed apart

The slide needs to be on for stability. If you remove it then the bed isn't stable (as per instructions).

The bed is difficult to make up and it does move some, so you have to keep pushing it around. The bed is worth that effort to me. I really love this bed..

I used a box spring for this. If you choose not to use a box spring, you would need to get something to support the mattress. Also, in my opinion, the headboard/footboard would look too high because the mattress would be so low. Hope this helps!

You need a regular bed frame. My daughter says her bed is fabulous. Her roommate bought a bed for 800$ and it is so uncomfortable. She really LOVES this one. Looks like a regular bed when it is assembled. She was also able to put it all together herself.
