Bed Frames

If you are looking for modern Scandinavian furniture with the minimalist style design, IKEA’s Tarva bed frame is a great product to consider. It features clear and untreated wood of high quality, which is durable and easy to style.

As with all IKEA’s products, you are being offered a very affordable price without having the quality compromised. The way IKEA achieves that is by giving you more work to and leaving less work in their hands. That is why all their bed frames come in packages and require assembly.

You will be taking on the shipping and assembly tasks, which will save you quite some money on your budget. With that said, in this review, we will go over the details and customers’ opinions on IKEA’s Tarva bed frame.

IKEA Tarva Bed Frame Review

Structure

IKEA’s Tarva bed frame is completely made of solid pine, with only its support beam being made of steel. The solid wood gives the frame sturdiness and durability, which you should be looking for when choosing your bedding setup.

While the frame is good quality and long lasting, its downside is the fact that it does not have adjustable sides. Meaning, you will have to follow IKEA’s recommendations when it comes to purchasing a mattress since not all of them are going to fit this particular bed frame.

What goes well with it

The Skorva midbeam is included in the price of this bed frame. However, if you’re not already familiar with these IKEA products, you should know that the Skorva midbeam comes packaged separately and you have to pick it up from its own shelf. If you purchase the bed frame online, the Skrova midbeam will come included in the package automatically.

What is not included in the price is the bed base needed to complete this bedding setup. IKEA recommends the Luroy slatted bed base as the best option for this frame and it will cost you additional 50$.

Since the solid pine wood of this bed frame is clear and untreated, you will have to give it the finishing touches. For that part of the DIY, IKEA recommends the Fixa paint brush set which goes for the price of 2.99$ and the Behandla glazing paint at 3.99$.

If you were hoping to get some extra storage space with your bed frame, IKEA has thought of that as well. With an additional purchase of Romskog storage boxes, you will be able to store plenty of items underneath your bed while still keeping it nice and stylish. This feature will, however, add more costs since one Romskog storage box goes for 50$, but it is definitely an investment worth making.

Finally, the most important IKEA’s recommendation regarding this product is the Haugsvar spring mattress. Since the Tarva bed frame does not have adjustable sides, getting the right mattress is significant for making you bed setup proportional. The Haugsvar spring mattress goes for about 379$ while the price will vary, depending on its size.

Other details and customers’ opinions

The Tarva bed frame is one of IKEA’s customizable furnishings that offers not only style but quality at its highest. The clear, untreated wood surface gives you an opportunity to control what your bed frame will look like. You can choose between different wood styles, such as oiled, painted, stained, waxed or lacquered wood. Treating the wood surface will make it more durable while adding some style to it, which is the best combination you want in your bedroom.

This bed frame is among the higher quality ones. According to the good customers’ review, the wood is high quality and does not splinter. The bed is low on the ground but high enough to fit storage boxes underneath. Keeping it clean is an easy task, since all you will need is a clean cloth and some mild detergent.

This bed frame is available in two sizes; queen and full size. It comes in only two packages, which makes the shipping process an ease. As far as the warranty goes, it is same as with all IKEA’s bed frames. If you’re not familiar with it, that is a 25 year warranty that covers only the manufacturing faults. There is no trial period for IKEA’s bed frames as there is for the mattresses.

Is IKEA Tarva Bed Frame Good?

Undoubtedly, this bed frame is a great solution for your bedroom. It offers style and functionality at a highly affordable price, which you can rarely find elsewhere. With the minor inconvenience of not having adjustable sides, you will be forced to purchase the one mattress that suits the frame, which is the Haugsvar spring mattress.

However, with that investment, you will be doing yourself a favor, because this bed frame in combination with IKEA’s recommended products is will give you the best sleeping experience you had in a long time!

Askvoll is another one of IKEA’s furniture series, designed to give style and functionality to your bedroom. Thanks to IKEA, you can customize and design your room to suit your needs and desires, while keeping that stylish look you find on TV.

All of that comes at an affordable price because IKEA primarily works on lowering their product prices without compromising quality. Without further ado, we will get into this review which will cover all positive and negative traits of IKEA’s Askvall bed frame.

IKEA Askvoll Bed Frame Review

Structure

80% of this product is renewable, meaning it is made of wood, which is a natural and reusable material. The main support beam is made of galvanized steel, as with most IKEA’s bed frame models. The steel support beam adds to the durability and sturdiness of the product.

Other materials used to make this bed frame include ABS plastic, paper, particleboard, fiberboard and printed and embossed acrylic paint. This bed frame has adjustable sides, which means you don’t have to worry whether the thickness of your mattress will fit nicely.

What goes well with it?

As usual, IKEA gave a few recommendations for this bed frame, as to what other products match it best. Most importantly, you will need a mattress if you don’t already own one. For that matter, IKEA recommends the Haugsvar spring mattress that goes for 399$ or the Morgedal foam mattress which is slightly less expensive at 299$.

You can choose depending on whether you prefer spring or foam mattresses or which one suits your budget best. Either way, it is important to keep in mind that this bed frame has adjustable sides and, therefore, you can purchase a mattress of any thickness you want.

As far as matching furniture goes, IKEA recommends the rest of the products from the Askvoll series, including the Askvoll 2-drawer chest which goes for the price of 39.99$. If you need additional storage in your room, the best recommendation are the Vardo storage boxes that can be stored underneath the bed and go for only 29.99$.

The Skorva midbeam that goes with this bed frame is included in the price but has to be picked up from a separate shelf in the IKEA store. However, if you purchase the bed frame online, the Skorva midbeam will be included in the package automatically.

Last but not least is the slatted bed base which you will need to complete this bed frame. Unfortunately, the bed base is not included in the price but sold separately. IKEA recommends the Luroy slatted bed base as the best choice for the Askvoll frame.

Other details and customers’ opinions

The Askvoll bed frame offers a clean and simple design which opens up many styling possibilities. Its plain design is easy to match with other furniture and different fabrics and colors, in order to meet your desires. IKEA recommends you to put this bed under a window or a sloped ceiling for the best styling results. Lots of natural light in the room will emphasize this piece of furniture and add that minimalist style feel to the space.

This bed frame is available in two sizes only, which can be seen as a disadvantage. The available sizes are full and queen size. As far as the prices go, the Askvoll bed frame falls among the more affordable IKEA bed frame solutions.

The price for the both sizes is the same and equals to 149$. Keep in mind that the slatted bed base is not included and that will be an additional cost of 50$, which will make the whole frame set around 200$, assuming you already own a mattress. If you don’t, you will have to invest double the money but if you compare IKEA’s bedding solutions to the other ones available on the market, you will realize how much money you’re actually saving.

Taking care of the product is as easy as it can be. A simple clean cloth and some mild detergent are what you need to keep this frame good as new. As much as IKEA praises this frame as a high-quality one, there are no customers’ reviews or ratings on the site to confirm its quality. Relying on what IKEA has given us, this bed frame is actually a good and durable bedding solution.

It comes in 3 packages, which allows you to cut the shipping prices by transporting the frame yourself. However, you can still opt for IKEA’s shipping service if you want to. The warranty on this bed frame is same as with any other and lasts 25 years. It covers only the manufacturing defaults while the damage was done by the consumer won’t be covered. There is no trial period for IKEA’s bed frame like there is for the mattresses, in case you were wondering.

Is IKEA Askvoll Bed Frame Good?

Altogether, according to the information, IKEA has given us, the Askvoll bed frame is a good bedding solution if you’re in need of a queen or full size bed. The design is simple and easy to blend with any style you want, which allows you to customize your room the way you want to. The price is affordable and there are no complications in the assembly process, which makes this bed frame a convenient bedding solution!

Materials used to make this bed frame include ABS plastic, paper, particleboard, fiberboard and acrylic paint, while the slatted bed base consists of beech veneer, birch veneer, and adhesive resin as a coating. The ribbon on the base is made of 100% polyester and 100$ coating.

The mattress you need to complete this bed is sold separately. IKEA has not stated whether the bed frame has adjustable sides or not, but judging by the storage compartments, it most likely does not have that feature. Therefore, before purchasing a mattress, make sure to contact IKEA or visit the store and see the bed frame for yourself.

What goes well with it

Usually, IKEA recommends a list of products that are a good match with the particular item you are viewing. For the Flaxa bed frame, they have recommended only one coordinating product and that is the matching Flaxa headboard with a storage compartment.

This convenient headboard can be mounted from both right or left side of the bed. It has a larger shelf above the pillows and a few smaller storage compartments and shelves on the side. The Flaxa headboard goes for the price of 119$ which is slightly less expensive than the frame itself.

 The Flaxa bed frame also has two large storage drawers that can fit plenty of extra storage you might have. The bed can be used with or without the storage compartment headboard. Either way, it is functional and looks nice.

There are no mattress recommendations for this bed frame, as IKEA usually does include at least one if not two mattress choices. However, to find a mattress that suits your needs, you can go through our IKEA mattress reviews to find out more about every product.

Other details and customers’ opinions

The Flaxa bed frame is a highly convenient bedding solution for kids, especially if they have a small room without much space for storage.

We will have to rely on the information IKEA has provided and make conclusions out of that. With what we do know, this bed frame is a convenient solution for a kid’s room, and it is an overall good deal, considering all the features it offers.

This bed frame is available in twin size only, as that is the size mostly used for kids’ rooms. The product  is a great offer, considering that the slatted bed base is included, as well as the storage drawers. Most IKEA’s bed frames do not have the bed base and storage boxes included in the price, which makes the Flaxa bed frame stand out regarding what you get for your money.

The product requires assembly, which shouldn’t be too difficult if you follow the instructions carefully. As far as taking care of it goes, wiping it clean with a cloth and some detergent will do the job. The Flaxa bed frame comes in 2 packages, which makes it easy to transport without having to pay for the shipping service.

As usual with IKEA’s bed frames and most bedding products, the warranty is a 25 years one and covers all manufacturing defaults. Any damage done by the user will not be covered by the warranty. There is no trial period for the bed frame. However, you will have a one year trial period for any mattress you purchase at IKEA.

What goes well with it

IKEA always recommends several coordinating products that work the best when matched with a specific bed frame and the Oppland bed frame was no exception.

Those are the Haugsvar spring mattress, which goes for 399$ and the Morgedal foam mattress, which goes for 299$. You can choose depending on you mattress material preference or the budget.

The Skorva midbeam comes included in the price, but it is stored at a separate isle. So, if you’re going to purchase this mattress in IKEA’s store, you will have to pick up the midbeam from its shelf, whereas, if purchase it online, the midbeam will come included in the package automatically.

What isn’t included in the price is the bed base which you need to set up the complete bed. IKEA recommends the Luroy bed base as the best and highest quality choice at the price of 50$.

If you need more storage space in your room, there is plenty of space underneath this bed frame to fit the Romskog storage boxes. While being convenient storage units, these boxes go well with the style of the frame and cost only 50$ a piece.

Other details and customers’ opinions

IKEA Fyresdal Bed Frame Review

Structure

IKEA’s Fyresdal bed frame is a daybed frame that is designed to create more bedding space in a functional manner. The only two materials this bed frame consists of are steel and pigmented powder coating. This daybed frame must be combined with two twin mattresses in order to function properly.

The two mattresses go on top if each other when you need to use the bed as a single bed, while when you are in need of a double bed, all you have to do is simply lift and pull out the extra bed base and place the second mattress on it. That way, the mattresses are next to each other, creating your double bed in just a few seconds.

What goes well with it

IKEA has recommended several coordinating products that suit the Fyresdal bed frame in different ways. Some of the products are optional while others are necessary to complete the bed or protect your furniture. Either way, IKEA encourages you to look into them.

The first item they recommended is the Fixa stick-on floor protectors, which come in a set of 20 pieces per package at the price of 1.99$. With these floor protectors, you don’t have to worry about scratching the surface or damaging it while moving the bed or pulling out the extra base.

Since you will need two mattresses to complete this bed setup, they should be of the same thickness which suits this frame. For that matter, IKEA recommends the Meistervik foam mattress in twin size.

 If you were hoping to get extra storage space with your bed frame purchase, IKEA has covered that as well. With Romskog storage boxes at 50$ a piece, you can store plenty of items while keeping your space stylish and clean.

On the more optional note, you choose to purchase the matching Fyresdal nightstand which goes for 44.99$. Since it is from the same furnishings line as the bed frame, it will fit the aesthetic of it and bring harmony and style to your space. A good thing is that the slatted bed base is included in the price, unlike with many IKEA’s bed frames.

Other details and customers’ opinions

The Fyresdal bed frame is a great bedding solution for a guest room or a teen’s room with less space. Its solid steel structure makes it sturdy and durable, meaning your frame will last long and do its job properly. It can be used as a single or a double bed, depending on how you need it to be.

Such convenience and versatility make this bed frame perfect for overnight guests or kid’s sleepovers. Whenever you don’t need the double bed, you can make it into a single bed again and save some floor space in the room.

This bedding setup can be transformed in a comfortable sofa by adding soft pillows and fluffy covers, that will make it your perfect book reading retreat. The plain style of this frame is easy to match with your personal styling choices, in terms of different colors and fabrics. Thanks to the powder coating that covers the steel, the frame is very easy to maintain. You can clean it thoroughly using a clean cloth and some mild detergent.

The frame comes in three packages and requires assembly. Thanks to the packaging, you can easily transport it yourself and save the shipping money for other purchases. As usual, IKEA offers a 25 year warranty on this product. The warranty covers all manufacturing defaults and none of the damage done by the user.

If you are looking for an affordable bedding solution for your child, IKEA’s Fjellse bed frame is a good deal for you. One of the most affordable IKEA bed frame is available for you in two sizes, just enough for your little ones. In this review, we will go over the positive and negative sides of this bed frame as well as customers’ opinions.

IKEA Fjellse Bed Frame Review

Structure

This IKEA bed frame is made of solid wood which is a durable and natural material. However, the centralized beam is not made of galvanized steel, like with most IKEA bed frames. That significantly lowers the durability of the frame as its support beam is made of solid wood.

All parts of the bed frame are made of solid pine which is untreated, giving you an opportunity to customize it by giving it the finishing touches. 

What goes well with it

IKEA recommends several products that go well with the Fjellse bed frame. Since the solid pine wood needs treatment, the products recommended for that job are the Behandla glazing paint and the Fixa paint brush set.

As far as mattresses go, IKEA recommends the Haugsvar spring mattress in twin or full size, depending on the frame size. Since the bed frame does not have adjustable sides, you should follow IKEA’s recommendations to avoid having an issue with the mattress size.

The bed frame does not come with a bed base included in the price, which means you will have to make an additional purchase. The Fjellse bed frame only fits with the Luroy slatted bed base so it is important to buy the right item.

Other details and customers’ opinions

With a high rating on IKEA’s site, the customers are somewhat satisfied with the product. It requires some work on the wood, which gives you an opportunity to customize the frame, choosing the color you like. You can either oil, wax or paint the surface, which will make it more durable in the long run.

Even though IKEA and some customers state that the material is natural and therefore solid, some have complained about a durability issue. More specifically, there have been problems with the bed base falling through the frame, making it unstable and wobbly. The issue can be fixed if you’re willing to do some DIY which requires drilling.

The bed frame is low and close to the ground, which may be an issue for taller kids. Another complaint was placed regarding the legs of the bed and how they stick out, increasing chances of injury. 

This bed frame is available in two sizes; full and twin size. Don’t forget that the slatted bed base is not included in the price, which means the full package will be a bit more expensive. 

As far as taking care of the product goes, keeping it clean is fairly easy. Some mild detergent and a clean cloth will do the job. Stains can also be removed with sandpaper or an eraser as well as with dishwasher detergent or paint thinner. 

The product requires assembly and is shipped in four packages. You can save money on shipping by transporting the packages yourself but keep in mind that the product is full wood and it will be heavy and difficult to handle. You can always opt for IKEA’s shipping service as well.

The warranty that comes with this bed frame covers all manufacturing defaults for 25 years, which is a fairly long warranty period. There is no trial period for IKEA’s bed frames like there is for mattresses.

Pros and cons

As any product out there, the Fjellse bed frame has its own pros and cons which we have listed below. Keep in mind that some of the facts stated below can be pros for one customer but cons for the other, since everything depends on your personal preferences and choices.

Is IKEA Fjellse Bed Frame Good?

Altogether, IKEA’s Fjellse bed frame is an affordable option for a kid’s room, since it is only available in full and twin size. Its durability is questionable since there is no steel beam support, which makes this bed frame unsuitable for adults.

However, if your little one needs a “big kid” bed, this bed frame might just be the best solution because of its affordable price and the opportunity to customize the color. Even though it only fits the Luroy slatted bed base, that shouldn’t be too big of an issue since you can purchase it at IKEA along with the frame. The Fjellse bed frame is definitely recommended for kids!

For those living in a city, having extra storage space is a luxury. City apartments are usually smaller and the storage space is not that great but don’t worry, IKEA has a solution for you. With their Brimnes bed frame you can get extra storage space in your room for a very affordable price.

As with any product on the market, there will be positive and negative sides but we are here to present them both, as well as the opinions of people who have already purchased this bed frame. Our goal is to help you decide what is the best purchase for you, so read on to find out everything about the Brimnes bed frame.

IKEA Brimnes Bed Frame Review

Structure

This bed frame consists of materials such as foil, ABS plastic, fiberboard, particleboard, and printed and embossed acrylic paint. The support beam is made of galvanized steel, making the frame solid enough to bare the weight of the bed base, mattress and the users.

The Skorva midbeam is included in the price. However, you will need to pick it up from a different shelf in the IKEA store while if you’re shopping online, the midbeam will be included in the package without you needing to select it. The Birmnes bed frame has adjustable sizes, allowing you to choose a mattress of any thickness you like.

What goes well with it

While the price of the Brimnes bed frame seems great at first sight, we hate to disappoint you but there will be additional costs since the headboard with the storage compartment and the Skub storage cases are sold separately.

When it comes to mattresses, IKEA’s best recommendations are the Haugsvar spring mattress and the Morgedal foam mattress. From there, it depends whether you prefer spring or foam mattresses.

Other details and customers’ opinions

This bed frame was designed by K. Hagberg and M. Hagberg in Sweden. With 4 integrated drawers, the Birmnes bed frame is a real space saver, convenient for small spaces. While the drawers are quite durable and well made, there is a slight inconvenience that should be kept in mind.

Customers have complained about the fact that nothing covers the top of the drawers, which means all the things you keep in them should be kept in zipper bags to save them from dust. Otherwise, your clothing or whatever items you planned to keep in those drawers will be exposed to the dust under the mattress and coming from its sides.

Another complaint was placed regarding the handles of the drawer. They stick out quite far from the frame itself, making it easy for you to get hurt on them. Unless you watch out for those handles every single time you come near the bed, you will end up cutting or hitting yourself.

Last but not the least important complaint regarding this bed frame is that it is difficult to move. Once assembled, the bed frame should stay in its place. If you want to move it, you will have to disassemble it and then assemble again once moved. Some customers have complained that the frame breaks apart when they try to move it assembled.

The Brimnes bed frame has a high star rating on IKEA’s website, which makes it slightly more favored than the Malm bed frame from IKEA. If you look past these several mentioned flaws, this bed frame is a very convenient space saver that might come in handy to you.

When it comes to shipping, the product is shipped in parts but the boxes are still very heavy and difficult to handle on your own. Opting for IKEA’s shipping service would be a great choice here. The product comes with a 25 year warranty that covers all manufacturing defaults. Any damage done by the consumer will not be covered by the warranty.

Is IKEA Brimnes Bed Frame Good?

Overall, the Brimnes mattress is a great solution for smaller spaces. You will have more space for your storage but you will definitely have to look past some flaws such as the inconvenient drawer handles or the fact that everything needs to be in zipper bags. Other than that, you will have a pretty good time with this bed frame from IKEA!

IKEA’s Brusali bed frame is a huge upgrade from the Brimnes bed frame, even though they have a similar purpose. If you are looking for a classic piece of furniture with some character to it, that is highly functional at the same time, Brusali is the bed frame for you!

With four large drawers, this bed frame is a great space saver that offers lots of storage space for those who need it. The soft an curved edges on the design adds to its appearance, giving this frame a lot of value for the money it costs. In this review, we will go over the specifications of this bed frame from IKEA.

IKEA Brusali Bed Frame Review

Structure

The Brusali bed frame was designed to save space while doing its primary job, supporting the mattress and the user’s weight. The materials this bed frame consists off include foil, particleboard, fiberboard and ABS fabric while the support beam is made of galvanized steel, making for a great and solid structure.

This bed frame has adjustable sides, allowing you to choose a mattress of any thickness you want without having to worry whether it would fit the frame nicely.

What goes well with it

Along the Bursali bed frame, IKEA recommends the matching Brusali nightstand to complete the set in your bedroom. As far as mattresses go, the most recommended one is the Haugsvar spring mattress. However, if you prefer foam mattresses or some other model of spring mattresses, you don’t have to worry because this bed frame is designed to support them all.

The Skorva midbeam is included in the price of the bed frame itself, but you will have to pick it up from a different shelf in the IKEA store. However, if you are shopping online, the midbeam will be included in the package without you having to look for it and purchase it separately.

The bed base recommended by IKEA is the Luroy slatted bed base. Purchasing another bed base, cheaper or differently styled, may affect the performance of other products in general. Following IKEA’s recommendations is the most effective way to get the best out of their products.

Their cheapest recommendation for the Brusali bed frame are the Kuggis boxes with lids, that increase the storage space in general.

Other details and customers’ opinions

The thing about the Brusali bed frame is that it is not rated on IKEA’s site. At least not yet. There are no customers’ reviews that will confirm or deny the quality of the product which makes it difficult to decide whether it is worth the purchase or not.

Therefore, this bed frame might be a risky purchase but according to the information provided by IKEA, it seems to be a very good and convenient product.

As far as prices go, the Brusali bed frame is slightly more expensive than the Brimnes bed frame, which is also designed to add more storage space to smaller bedrooms. That clearly tells us the quality of the Brusali bed frame is also higher than with the other model. However, what makes them different, besides the quality and the look, is that the Brusali bed frame is not available in king size.

The only available sizes for this bed frame is queen and full size. The only things you have to purchase additionally are the mattresses and the slatted bed base (Luroy). Another thing that makes it stand above the Brimnes bed frame is that its drawers have no handles, making it impossible for you to hurt yourself on them.

The product requires assembly upon delivery and, since the boxes it is packed in are pretty heavy, opting for IKEA’s shipping service would be a good idea. The product comes with a 25 year warranty that covers all manufacturing defaults. Any damage done by the consumer will not be covered by the warranty.

As far as keeping the bed frame clean goes, the process is quite simple. A damp cloth and some mild, cleaning solution will do the job. Dry the frame afterwards with a dry cloth and there you have it! Keeping the frame clean will increase its lifespan and keep it looking fresh and new.

Is IKEA Brusali Bed Frame Good?

All together, as far as we can tell from IKEA’s information, the Brusali bed frame seems like a good choice for people who need more storage space in their bedroom or apartment in general. The product seems to be of higher quality than the Brimnes bed frame with the same purpose. It is up to you to decide whether or not this frame is suitable for your needs.

Hasselvika bed frame is one of IKEA’s products that have high ratings on the site. With that in mind, it is easier to determine the value of the products since the best reviews come from the users themselves. 

Without insight on how the product performs, we have to rely on the information IKEA gives us on their online store. However, as that is the case with the Hasselvika, there is a very little amount of information about this bed frame on the site.

IKEA Hasselvika Bed Frame Review

Therefore, in this review we will focus on what IKEA says about this product while, if you are seriously considering to purchase it, it would be best to visit one of their stores and try out the product on the spot.

Structure

The Hasselvika bed frame is made of real wood, unlike most of other IKEA’s bed frames. The top rail, legs, the footboard and the bedside are all made of solid pine and stain, both covered with clear acrylic lacquer. The headboard, however, consists of two solid pine layers also covered with clear acrylic lacquer.

The wood is a solid and natural material, meaning it is durable and long-lasting, which is exactly what you should be looking for in a bed frame. As usual, the center support beam is made of galvanized steel.

What goes well with it

This section is included in all of our IKEA bed frame reviews since there are always some recommendations on what performs the best with a certain bed frame model. However, IKEA has not placed any recommendations on the site regarding which products go along the Hasselvika bed frame, leaving us once again to keep guessing.

The best guess would be any high quality slatted bed base (the recommendation is usually Luroy). As far as the mattress is concerned, any higher quality IKEA mattress would do, except that we don’t have the information whether the frame sides are adjustable.

Therefore, prior to purchasing a mattress, make sure you take a look at the bed frame in the store and determine what mattress thickness would go best with it.

Other details and customers’ opinions

Since we don’t have customers’ opinions on this product, we will conclude that, based on the information we do have, this bed frame is solid and expected to do its job. It is not designed to be a space saver, like the Brimnes or Brusali mattress, since its long legs keep it above the ground and placing boxes underneath it would affect its appearance.

The Skorva midbeam that supports the structure and holds the mattress is included in the price. However, you will have to pick it up from its own shelf in the store since its not packaged with the bed frame. If you order the Hasselvika bed frame online, the Skorva midbeam will come in the package without you having to hand pick it.

As far as cleaning the bed frame goes, the story remains the same. A damp cloth and a mild detergent will be enough to wipe the bed frame clean. Then dry it with a clean cloth and the job is done.

The product requires assembly and is shipped in boxes which are pretty heavy. Handling them on your own could be a challenge but if you’re not up to it, you can always choose online shipping service for a little extra money or just enjoy the Amazon prime shipping. 

The warranty that comes with the product is the same as with all other IKEA bed frames. It is a 25 year warranty that covers all manufacturing costs and none of the damage done by the consumer. Unlike with the mattresses, IKEA does not offer trial periods on bed frames.

Is IKEA Hasselvika Bed Frame Good?

Overall, judging by the price and the little info IKEA has given us, we can come to a conclusion that the Hasselvika bed frame can do what its designed to do. It is a simple piece of furniture that has one purpose only, making it simple to determine whether or not it is functional.

Taking into consideration that it is made of solid wood, unlike most of IKEA’s bed frames, we can confidently say that this product is durable and will last a couple of years at least. Just to be sure, visit one of IKEA’s stores and talk to their staff, try out the bed frame in person and then make a decision whether to purchase it or not.
