IKEA Kopardal Bed Frame Review

Kopardal is another member of IKEA’s bed frame line. Its design is simple and follows the minimalism style of interior design. If you’re not familiar with IKEA, it is a company that designs and manufactures home furnishings and accessories in Sweden.

The minimalism style has its origins from the Scandinavian area, which explains why many products of this Swedish company follow it. At IKEA, you will find the best deals for quality at affordable prices and we are here to help you during your search.

 In this review, we will focus on the positive and the negative sides of IKEA’s Kopardal bed frame.

IKEA Kopardal Bed Frame Review

Structure

This high quality bed frame has 30 slats of layer – glued birch that adjusts to your weight and provides the right support for the mattress. The center support beam is made of galvanized steel, ensuring the structure is strong enough to bare the mattress and the users.

50% of the materials used to create this IKEA Kopardal bed frame are renewable. The materials include steel, pigmented polyester powder coating, beech veneer, birch veneer, foil, adhesive resin as coating, polypropylene, solid beech and solid birch, beech plywood, and birch plywood and synthetic rubber.

The slatted bed base is included in the price but it is packaged separately. The Skorva midbeam, which is a component of almost every IKEA bed frame, comes included in the price but you will have to pick it up from a separate shelf in the IKEA store. However, if you are shopping online, the Skorva midbeam will come included in the package.

What goes well with it

If you follow IKEA’s recommendations on what products go best with certain bed frames, you will be able to achieve that designer feel in your bedroom with very little effort and not too much money. IKEA recommends the Hemnes night stand to go with the Kopardal bed frame to complete the style of your bedroom.

For those in need of extra storage, IKEA recommends the Romskog storage boxes as the best solution. For the price of 50$ a piece, you will be able to store extra items under the bed without hurting the design of the room.

As far as mattresses go, IKEA recommends the Morgedal foam mattress as the best option for this bed frame. However, if you prefer spring mattresses, which are usually thicker than foam ones, you can choose whichever you like since the bed frame has adjustable sizes to suit them all.

IKEA allows you to choose between the Lonset, Espevar and Luroy slatted bed bases but they are all included in the price. Therefore, there will be no extra costs on this product.

Other details and customers opinions

With the high stars rating on IKEA’s website, the Kopardal bed frame seems to meet all customers’ requirements with a few flaws here and there. The style of the frame is simple and it wont look like its taking up too much space, which makes it perfect for smaller bedrooms. With the ability to add extra storage space, this combo makes for a great space saver.

The materials and the structure of the bed frame are all high quality and well designed, meaning the frame is sturdy and doesn’t wobble. As customers have stated, this bed frame is easy to put together if you have a helping hand. It would be a difficult task for one person to complete.

As with any product on the market, the Kopardal bed frame has a few negative sides as well. The customers have complained about the color of the bed frame not being the same as shown online.

On IKEA’s online store, this bed frame is shown as a dark gray frame but some customers have received it in light / medium gray which wasn’t what they expected. It’s important to keep in mind that different laptop or smartphone screens will show color shades slightly differently. With that in mind, this is not too big of an issue.

Another thing the customers had complained about were the sharp corners. They would often hurt themselves getting on or off the bed so getting a few corner bumpers for this bed frame would be a good idea.

The frame is available in three sizes; king, queen and full size. The quality and value you get with this frame is amazing for a price this low. Since the product requires assembly, it is shipped in packages. If you don’t want to bother with transporting the packages, you can invest a few bucks in IKEA’s shipping service.

The warranty for this bed frame is same as with any other IKEA bed frame. That is a 25 year warranty that covers all manufacturing defaults on the product.

Is IKEA Kopardal Bed Frame Good?

All together, the IKEA Kopardal bed frame is a great solution for the money. With this purchase you will be getting a high quality frame with all necessary parts such as the Skorva midbeam and the slatted bed base included in the price.

The value for the money is outstanding. Besides the color difference online and in real life and the sharp corners, there is nothing that could make this purchase less valuable for a customer!
