I read reviews of people stating it took them 15min to 30min to set up but for me it took me over an hour. The hardest part was putting the cover. It was too hard for me but hey I was happy I build it myself all alone. It does what it needs to thanks to my Serta mattress my whole bed feels great and looks so tall.

Bought this opposed to a traditional box spring as our house is old and the stairs are tight making it hard to get big furniture upstairs. Most of this box spring snapped together and feels some what flimsy, hence 4 out of 5 stars, but so far it's held up. We've had it in use for a few weeks now.

I bought this box spring about 2 months ago, delivery was free and fast. It came in a long box and assembly was required. It was pretty easy to assemble if you follow the instructions. It is an all metal frame, with no springs, then you cover it with a thin fabric that closes with a zipper. It fits the base of the bed perfectly. The only thing is that it came really dusty, so make sure to clean it before assembly, so the carpets won't get dirty.

I had learned before delivery that the box spring needed to be assembled. All parts are a strong metal. The assembly was made simple because the parts were clearly marked where they joined, all nuts and bolts were also clearly marked, and the tools to assemble were included. The twin xl I purchased fit perfectly into the bed frame. Definitely a good purchase.

I had been using my mattress just straight on my bedframe, which said no box spring needed, and having sleeping issues. I would wake up repeatedly with my back hurting, neck stiff, and just uncomfortable. Finally bought this after someone said a box spring would help, and it's like I bought a brand new mattress! It's actually more firm which I didnt even notice how uncomfortable sinking into bed was. I sleep through the night now, the pain has totally gone, and I feel like I just added another several years to the mattresses life.

The mattress began to loosen the top layer within days of purchase. The side is already feeling like it is broken down. We bought this for my elderly Mom and she thinks we should return it. Really not happy. The box springs came in a relatively small box and were easy to put together. A clever idea, we’ll executed.

didnt read description and thought it was a traditional box spring. opened the box and saw all the pieces and was going to return. wound up putting it together. (very easy) and it turned out perfect. set it on top of a traditional queen size bed frame with mattress on top.easy to take apart for moving or storage.

I liked the idea of having a box spring replacement that i could take apart if i ever needed to (for size reasons). My kids and I put it together and it was a fun project. it probably took us 45 minutes or so. We did get a little confused about which way the cover was supposed to go, but we figured it out eventually. Overall, I think it is going to be great.

Bought this thinking it was a conventional box springs because of the product photo. Was surprised when it arrived in a relatively small carton because the design requires user-assembly. This solved my biggest issue: How would I get it upstairs via my narrow staircase? Assembly of the steel frame was straightforward with all components numbered and all fasteners supplied. Even spare fasteners and all necessary tools were supplied. With its zip-on fabric cover, this product looks and functions just like a conventional box springs. I am a fan of Zinus!

Bought this a couple of weeks ago to replace my 8-year-old wooden frame box spring which had broken. Being a big guy (6'4" 320lbs), I was looking for a metal frame box spring. The price drew me to this one. This box spring was easy to put together. It is very sturdy. The only downside was that it felt like I could "feel" the metal frame of the box spring through my memory foam mattress. Maybe that was because my mattress is 8-years-old as well. I bought a 3" mattress topper and that fixed that issue.
