This bed will not only be an investment in style but also in giving your bedroom what it needs to make it feel like home. It’ll give you a personal space that’s cozy and inviting to come back to every night.

• If you’re looking to give your bedroom an instant makeover with a single purchase.

This bed will give your bedroom a whole new look. It features beautiful tufting details across the headboard and down the wings which add texture and visual interest to any room it occupies.

• If you want an elegant, luxurious look without having to pay the upscale price.

This bed will make your bedroom look amazing at a price point that can’t be beaten. You can have a great-looking bed without having to pay the upscale price. Instead, you can buy one that looks just as good for less than $200.

• If you’re looking for a bed that won’t take hours to set up (less than 60 minutes).

This bed is easy to assemble with only 6 steps required and can be done by one person. Power tools are not required, the instructions are straightforward and clear which makes the setup quick and simple, and we even created a step-by-step instruction video showing you how to assemble it below.

Pros & Cons of the Aadvik Tufted Upholstered Bed

Pros

• A perfect blend of style and value – get the unique design and durability for less than $250.

• Compatible with adjustable beds -The headboard and bed frame is made to fit around adjustable beds, allowing for a seamless look that blends perfectly with your bedroom.

• Relatively easy to assemble – Assembly is relatively straightforward and comes with the necessary tools and instructions. There aren’t many pieces and it probably won’t take more than a couple of hours to complete. 

Cons

• Requires a box spring – Unfortunately, the bed does require a box spring. Luckily there are lots of places where you can buy one online or in stores, and the average person can easily buy and install one without spending too much money!

• Colors will vary in different lighting – The color of the bed may vary slightly from what you see on your screen depending on lighting conditions and because your specific monitor setting may display colors differently. Funny enough, some people even like the color changes because it looks cool!

• Styrofoam packaging can be messy – The styrofoam used to protect and provide padding for the bed can usually fragment during shipping and leave a mess. It’s easy enough to clean up though and doesn’t impact the quality of your bed at all so it’s not something you should worry about too much – more so just something to be aware of.

• there will be an accumulative score out of 50 points.

Here are the 10 categories:

3. Sturdiness

5. Features
6. Packaging
7. Assembly
8. Usability
9. Portability
10. Safety

(1) Price

The Aadvik Tufted Bed truly is the perfect bed for the price-conscious shopper.

This bed is the best of both worlds because it’s got a sale price but not cheap and gives you the upgrade you want with some glam to it.

The price range for this bed is typically between $150-250 depending on the size you choose and any sales or promotions going on. This isn’t too shabby for a piece of furniture that is in high demand.

As mentioned earlier, the Aadvik Tufted Bed has over 30,000 overwhelmingly positive reviews on Wayfair which can sometimes warrant a slight bump up in price, but it has managed to remain reasonably priced.

With this bed being on trend with the latest styles and its ability to create a cozy oasis for hours of Netflixing-ing, there is no need to buy designer furniture when you can “create it” yourself for a fraction of the cost.

Price Score: 5 / 5 pts

(2) Sturdiness

No need to worry about your mattress or boxspring sinking in the middle of the night. This low-profile bed has a durable, sturdy frame which allows it to support weights ranging between 250-600 pounds depending on the size of the bed. 

Weight Capacity 

• Twin: 250 lbs
• Full: 400 lbs
• Queen: 500 lbs
• King: 600 lbs

With its four built-in wooden slats, this bed provides your mattress and boxspring with optimal levels of support so you can sleep soundly without any worries. 

And because this bed’s foundation is near to the ground (low-profile), coupled with 4 support legs with adjustable feet and 2 side rail supports, bodyweight will be spread evenly providing relief from sagging which could lead to breakage or other damage over time.

While the durability and sturdiness of this bed are impressive, it’s not the same level of sturdiness you would experience with a solid wood bed which is the gold standard.

Overall the bed is solidly built.

Sturdiness Score: 5 / 5 pts

(3) Size

Bed sizes are important. That’s why this bed comes available in four different sizes (twin, full, queen, and king) each of which is designed to handle varying body weights and space constraints. 

With options ranging from twin-size that is good for children or people who are very limited in space to larger ones for those who want more room to sprawl out; there is something for everyone!

The height from the floor to the top of the headboard should also be taken into consideration when creating the atmosphere for your bedroom.

The height from the floor to the top of the headboard is impressive at 49.6 inches

– just a little over 4 ft.

If you’re super tall then this may not be significant to you. But to the average person, this dimension will make it feel like they’re sleeping on their very own throne when it comes to sleep time. This is especially true if we are talking about the king size.

Whatever size you are going for, there’s an option available which is really all you can ask for particularly if you are in love with the style of the bed. if you’re absolutely hooked on its design then any choice will work.

Size Score: 5 / 5 pts

(4) Materials

• Frame Material – The material of the bed frame is a mixture of solid wood and manufactured wood. Together, they are reliably durable and resistant to breaking which is great because there’s nothing worse than laying on your mattress just to hear a cracking sound rumble throughout the bed.
  
  The mixture of these two types of wood helps make furniture more affordable. Solid wood in many cases is the gold standard when it comes to quality furniture, but that standard comes with a financial cost that manufactured wood helps alleviate. 

• Upholstery Material – The Aadvik Tufted Upholstered Bed is the perfect blend of durability and elegance. You won’t have to decide between having a beautiful bed or being able to use your bed for years to come.
  
  The fabric used for the bed frame coverings is made of 100% linen which is a great choice because of its versatility.
  
  The linen can be durable when you need to clean an accidental spill or avoid damage and can be elegant in providing just enough flair that won’t overpower your other design elements in your room. Why choose when you can have both? 

• Upholstery Fill Material – The filling in the cushions of the upholstery is made of foam. It’s a lightweight material that’s ideal for crafting furniture cushions and bed upholstery because it can be easily shaped and provides comfortable support.
  
  Bed upholstery made from light material such as foam is easy to move and rearrange so changing the layout of this bed is easy. With light, foam-filled upholstery, it requires little effort to move.

• Side Rail and Footboard Leg Material – The side rail legs and footboard legs are made of durable plastic strong enough to withstand years of high usage.

Materials Score: 5 / 5 pts.

(5) Features

The Aadvik Tufted Upholstered Bed has lots of noteworthy features that make the unit stylish! These top features are:

Feature #1: Available in Multiple Colors

You can choose from 3 different colors – grey, light grey, and blue – to find what would best match your bedroom decor. Having handled the Aadvik Tufted Upholstered Bed in all 3 colors, we think the natural light does the best job at accentuating the shades and textures of these beds. It’s also worth mentioning again that the color tones may vary depending on the lighting of the room that it is in.  

Feature #2: Button Tufted Headboard

Think of the headboard as your opportunity to make a statement. The bed features a beautifully tufted headboard that’s bedazzled with buttons and can easily set the tone and change the atmosphere of any bedroom from boring to beautiful. This kind of headboard adds style, sophistication, and class to otherwise ordinary rooms.

Feature #3: Nailhead Wingback – The wingback is a luxurious and timeless design element. With its sleek, modern features and nailhead details the wingback provides an elegant upgrade to your bedroom without overwhelming other design elements by being too big or bold in size. You can count on having that beautiful addition of elegance waiting for you every night before bedtime!

(6) Packaging

There’s a lot to unpack with the Aadvik Tufted Bed!

In the unboxing video below, we show you everything there is to see when it comes to the overall packaging.

Product Packaging

The Aadvik Tufted Bed ships in a very flat and compact box. Don’t be alarmed, the entire bed comes in a single box and all of the parts are packed in the zippered back pouch of the headboard.

As for the packaging material, they use a few different types to protect the furniture parts: 

• Polyfoam sheet used to wrap and cover the tufted linen fabric of the headboard

• Corrugated cardboard sheet that lines up along the interior of the headboard separating the bed parts and hardware from the back of the headboard cushion

• Styrofoam that strategically sits in between some of the furniture parts for protection, and in corners of the headboard back pouch to prevent furniture parts from shifting during shipment

• Interfacing fabric used to individually wrap the tufted footboard and the bedside rails.

Hardware Packaging

The packaging of hardware is really important on many levels, namely for helping you get organized quickly before starting the assembly process and seamlessly progressing through it.

• The hardware comes in a small red or clear plastic bag and is easy to identify – Single bagged hardware usually does the job in safely transporting the hardware, but in some instances, the bag may arrive punctured and parts may be scattered around the shipping box.
  
  A more ideal scenario would be to receive the hardware parts double bagged in case the inner bag ruptures during shipment. 

• The hardware parts are not individually organized – The hardware itself comes mixed together inside the red plastic bag which means you will have to do some organizing prior to assembly.
  
  Receiving the hardware pre-organized is a bit of a luxury in the world of assemblies. Pre-organization would cost the manufacturer which is probably why they leave this task up to customers instead.

• There is a large variety of hardware parts, so you will have to spend a few miutes getting organized as shown below. This shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes to organize – maybe less! 

The packaging was not perfect, but it did the trick overall. The components of the furniture were adequately packaged to avoid any damage during transit.

The hardware packaging, however, can be improved by pre-organizing and double bagging all screws, bolts, and washers in order to avoid scattering or losing them during transit. 

Packaging Score: 4.4 / 5 pts

(7) Assembly

• The average assembly can take anywhere from 45 minutes – 2 hours which includes unboxing and organizing all of the parts. The assembly time will vary depending on your skill level and the tools you decide to use.

• The instruction manual is very helpful and easy to consume. The manual guides you through the assembly using picture illustrations that are magnified to show the proper orientation of furniture parts and hardware.

• We also designed an easy-to-follow assembly video (below) showing you how to put it together with only one person doing all the work – this is if you want to give this assembly a shot yourself!
  
  However, if this doesn’t sound like something up your alley then have no fear because hiring a professional to assemble your is always another option.

In the step-by-step instruction video below we show you how to assemble the Aadvik Tufted Upholstered Low Profile Standard Bed:

3 Sections of the User Manual

The manual is simple, easy to follow and organized by sections. The different parts of this guide will be divided into 3 sections:

1. furniture parts list
2. hardware parts list
3. assembly steps

The furniture parts list and hardware parts lists feature the names, part numbers, quantities, and pictures of each individual part.

The assembly steps section features 6 individual steps that use zoomed-in picture illustrations demonstrating how to properly align the furniture parts and hardware as you connect them.

Assembly tips: 

• Wear knee pads if you have them – You’re going to be kneeling a lot, so you might as well protect your knees.

• Align your furniture parts correctly as illustrated in the instructions – Double and triple-check that you are using the right hardware and positioning the furniture parts correctly!

• Use the lowest setting of a power drill if you plan on using one – If you’re not experienced using a drill or not comfortable using one then you can use a screwdriver and the Allen wrench provided.

Overall, the assembly instructions are easy to follow. As mentioned in the beginning, depending on whether you’re using a power drill or not will determine how long it takes to assemble, but you can expect between 45 minutes – 2 hours to complete.

Assembly Score: 4 / 5 pts

(8) Usability

There are a couple of functional features that you will find yourself using quite often or daily. These two features are: 

• Upright seating – The headboard of the bed is rather tall and offers generous back and head support. The upholstery provides lots of cushioning, which means a more relaxed reading session or live-streaming your favorite show can be done without any neck strain whatsoever. You’ll have a better place to lean on than just hardwood or your arm!

• Low profile – Its practical design makes it easy to get in and out of the bed at any given time, and there’s just enough elevation which means items will be easier to reach when they fall underneath the frame. 

Getting in and out of bed shouldn’t be a hassle and neither should sitting in the upright position which both occur frequently when using your bed. Your bed is your sanctuary and should be associated with comfort – this bed provides it right away

Usability Score: 5 / 5 pts

(9) Portability

Rearranging your bed around the room is possible with one person, but a lot easier with a second pair of hands. 

If you have hardwood or marble floors you can slide the bed without damaging your floor by placing furniture pads under the legs of your bed. 

If you have rug floors then sliding the bed will be a more cumbersome task. Help from another person would be ideal with someone pushing the bed while the other person pulls. You can also slightly lift the bed and move it in small increments.

If you have to move the bed to a different location then partial disassembly will be required.

Disassembly Tips:

If there’s a need for partial disassembly, the steps are to:

• Unscrew the wooden slats that support the box spring and mattress

• Remove the bolts that secure the side rails to the headboard and footboard

• You will then have 4 parts to transport (headboard, footboard, left side rail, right side rail)

This bed is not exactly meant to be moved around like a suitcase. Although it can be done, moving the bed around a room, or transporting it to a different location is not a particularly easy task for a single person to do – due in large part to its weight and size.

Portability Score: 3.6 / 5 pts

(10) Safety

The cushy upholstery takes the fear out of grazing sharp corners while being distracted or in a hurry. The padded cushions hug the edges and corners of the bed, so if you bump into it in the middle of the day or night, it won’t cause any serious harm.

The staples used to attach the upholstery to the wood are not exposed!

Unfortunately, on some upholstered beds, the staples are showing which be disappointing for some. However, the unexposed staples on this bed help keep the area safe to sleep while also maintaining an upscale appearance..

While there aren’t any visual safety issues or concerns for this bed, there was a California Proposition 65 Warning shown in the specifications section of the product page. You can read more about that here.

Safety Score: 4 / 5 pts

Final Score: 45.5 / 50 (91%)

In conclusion, the bed is a sturdy, reliable piece of furniture. The one thing you can’t deny is that it has been rated favorably by an overwhelming majority of reviewers.

On top of being solid and aesthetically pleasing, it’s also quite affordable! This bed is a great purchase for the price and you can’t go wrong with it.

Where It Can Improve

• Packaging: The styrofoam packaging can be upgraded to avoid leaving a mess after unboxing the parts. 

• Portability: The headboard is large and will require a bit more effort to move if you want to transport it to another location.
