This bed was a piece of total junk!! Don't waste your time. The pieces didn't match up. There were rough edges that cut my cousin that was helping me put it together. It's thin particle board and it fell apart when we went to move it.

Mine is on hardwood. Not sure- the base is wide, but the support boards are thin.

Perfectly fine, if you have hard wood floors it could be loud with the feet (fixable with floor pads) i recommend you find a way to keep the legs locked down better, the leg locks are pretty lame on this frame. other then that it is amazing. great storage space, PERFECT support. no need for a boxspring at all. Also, you need standalone head board or leg boards, doesnt look like there are attachment options... I love it to death, will never buy any other frame kind again.. not to mention the weight support is amazing.. im very over weight...

I had to stand on a paint can and try to measure the top (everything else was weighted down. it looks like 1/2 inch. I was expecting 3/8 or 5/8 but my top shelf particle board looks like 1/2 inch call the mfgr and ask them. whatever it is....it is holding up well...now bowing in the middle, etc.

It is solid wood, I believe it's Pine but im not 100% sure. It is a very solid little table though, it did take about three coats of varnish to get the high gloss look I wanted.

I would say not "High Gloss" but not matte or satin. Very smooth surface. I have it in a bedroom with white wicker and it looks great.

Yeah I have a 65 inch on top. The base is fine on it, and it barely creeps over the sides.

The base is a heavy plastic with a glossy sheen. The entire piece is fairly heavy and a wooden base would have only added to that I would imagine.

It appears the high gloss is at the following link http://www.amazon.com/Expedit-Bookcase-Divider-Display-Gloss/dp/B0091UCVAW/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1394508150&sr=1-1&keywords=expedit+gloss

The frame under the bed is entirely particle board. The external part you see is veneer over something. Overall, the appearance is pleasant and seems to be sturdy.

There is nothing that came with it that said what it is made of. It feels like some of it is wood and some is not, for example, the backing is mdf and the feet are some type of very hard resin. I'm saying resin because the thing is very heavy and the feet definitely support it. The finish is very pretty, so to tell you truth, I wouldn't be upset if someone proved to me it isn't wood. My husband's take was that it wouldn't be affected by humidity so the drawers won't stick. :) But I would say, if it is wood, it is only part wood. But I cannot tell by look or touch. At to the height, the legs get attached on site after delivery, and they do bring it to 32" high. I was worried about that too, because I had another chest in the spot and it was too high (it was 42" and very awkward). When the unit came, I wasn't sure if I liked it - I kind of did, but I originally had something painted and very oriental in mind, but I saw that the height was good for my spot. That was a relief. It is hard to picture height, but 32" is about the height of a bathroom counter. (Kitchen counters are 4" higher. I will see if I can post some customer pix on Amazon - might help.) I wish the stock photo had something in it to give a frame of reference because it is hard to tell how it will look. But now, I love it, it has grown on me. I can keep my phone books and some photos and mail in it and the height is very comfortable. I love the marble top. I had to have a glass top made for my other tables to keep them from getting scratched, but the glass then requires a scarf, etc. Hope this helps you.

I am away from home so can't measure it for you but the short answer is very little. The table I have it mounted on is basically a thick board made out of 2x6s glued together. The legs are metal legs that screw on to brackets that mount on the underside of the table. Bottom line is that the legs are basically flush with the edge of the table mounted in the extreme corners. So very little overhang.

This frame is the best we have ever had! You will not need support slats. You don't need to purchase anything extra for this frame. You will love how sturdy it is and how it does not slide across a hard wood floor.

I would call it a matte finish. Has a slight shine to it . But not high gloss... Definitely not flat

Hi Judy, The base looks like metal but it is actually plastic which is filled with probably cement. It is quite heavy for stability and I have not had a problem with it tipping over. Most of these types of racks do have those small round bottoms so I'm not sure if you would find a big wide base. Anyway, I'm happy with it...looks classy and is very sturdy especially for the price.

The base is metal with 1 1/2" x 2" square thin grip pad on each corner. It is an excellent foot rest. I have tried a couple before this one and I highly recommend this one. I would say...purchase a small square rug with a good rubber backing to reduce slippage and place under the unit so the floor would not be damaged. I believe any foot rest unit could have the possibility of damaging hardwood floors due to the weight and pressure...good luck!
