Product Insights

Simons Maison's Minimalist Platform Bed Frame Queen Size ($798, in stock) delivers a cohesive Scandinavian look with its built-in headboard and low 8-inch profile, while properly fastened central supports prevent sagging—unlike some competitors. However, buyers report difficult assembly requiring two people, limited under-bed storage due to the low profile, and undisclosed slat spacing critical for memory foam; the material is listed as wood but one buyer describes it as MDF with a thin veneer. Though priced higher than comparable Canadian solid-wood alternatives ($400-700), the frame is designed and made in Quebec under stricter safety and craftsmanship standards.

look nice but doesn't feel nice

Fabian B.

it looks nice but I feel you'd want a carpet underneath. It slides easily on hardwood and bumping into the base makes a loud hollow sound. I wish the edge on the inner part of the frame was rounded so putting on bed sheets wasn't so uncomfortable. Assembly is very involved, hopefully won't need to disassemble anytime soon. Only had it a bit over a week so will see how it holds up

Overall Ok

Jenifer S.

The bed frame looks nice overall, but the quality is disappointing for the price. The description listed it as 100% wood, but it feels more like MDF with a thin wood veneer. The material is very light and doesn’t seem very sturdy — it feels like it could break easily with regular use. Visually it’s appealing, but I expected much higher quality and durability given the cost. I suspect we will need to replace it within a year’s time if not sooner. Not worth the price, but sure, looks nice. Wouldn’t purchase again.

Good bed

Emily M.

Looks as described on the site, but assembly was a bit difficult
