Just picked up/built this bed today. I gotta say your method of assembling this bed was way more efficient, thought out, and made this whole process easier. I had my girlfriend help me out by sorting out all the screws and helping me place the metal frame on the gas pistons that raise the bed. I was working in a very small room so It was VERY helpful to assemble the metal frame first prior to assembling the bed frame itself. Having a drill also helped a lot. Thank you for this video!

You my friend are a angel and a hero all in one ... simple.

Really helpful, cheers! Your way of doing things is better than the "official" Ikea instructions... for example, making the mattress frame first is so much better if you have to work in a confined space. btw Ikea have released a "new version" of this bed, but the only real change is that the lifting arm is ready assembled so you don't have to piece it together yourself.

Omg i was literally giving up. i was so tired. thank you so much

@@thefridge1000 Hi. Yeah we’re happy with it. Used it for a year or so now. Very sturdy construction. Most other wooden framed beds we’ve had in the past would have started to have the odd creak by a year into being used but I can honestly say this ottoman bed is creak free. The extra storage is very handy to have and the access to underneath is great. All in all one of the best beds we’ve bought.

I see similar coments regarding putting the storage place down without matrice. The pistons are very strong to hold the weighty matrices so without matrice will give stronger resistance. I always just push little harder (if everithing assembled correct) and always goes down.

On my own this bed took me over 5 hours to put together, when I finally got to the part where you connect the frame I discovered both of the gas struts that help lift the bed would not compress down and I had to disconnect one end of each of the struts just to get the frame to lie flat until I could contact IKEA the following day. not happy! now I have to disconnect the struts to take them into IKEA to be replaced

I tried pushing each of the gas struts down myself putting my full weight on it and I'm 110kg, neither of them moved so if they wouldn't budge with 110kg pressing down on it then it wasn't going to move with a mattress that weighs less than that.

Believe it or not, when I went to take the bed apart again to remove the gas struts to return to IKEA I decided to give it one more go to see if I could get them to shift (I'd sprayed them a week ago with an engine lubricant spray to see if I could get them to budge) but this time a week later they finally moved and I was able to shift the bed down! Gotta love WD40 it may have taken a week but it saved me a trip back to IKEA!

I broke those cam lock things three times, had to order fresh. Not sure what I did wrong. They just broke in half. Felt like hulk!

You screwed them to the wrong place. Pay attention to the instructions on several pages, not just the one you have to attach the locks. I'm a girl and I assembled this bed by myself. You can do it but don't rely on your logic and just follow the instructions step by step. Don't try to put down the bed before you accomplished the previous steps. I didn't watch this video just because the guy didn't follow the instruction steps. He didn't have to do it because he probably assembled this bed multiple times but for the beginner it's a must.

I just assembled the same bed and i have followed the instructions really well but the bed doesn't close...i have released a bit the screws and add the mattress but wont close, can someone help???

I'm in the same position as you - I have a tall window that would be blocked by the headboard. You can build the bed without it and everything works - it's not needed for support or anything structural. Only thing to bear in mind is that you'll have the holes that the headboard would have slotted into... I doubt it would be noticeable behind your mattress though.
