In addition to their adjustable bed (reviewed here), Nectar offers a foundation, bed frame with headboard, foldable metal frame, and also five designer style platform bed frames. For those that are looking for affordable, high quality choices, these options may be just what you are looking for. But how to choose? For those looking for something streamlined, the affordable foundation or foldable metal frame will offer supportive structures that are ready for your new mattress. Those that want something that is a total solution, consider the bed frame with headboard or designer style platform bed frames, which offer high value, more stylish designs.
Nectar's bed frames offer high value materials and design. At prices that are well-below $1,000 for a queen bed frame, most customers report sturdy designs. Those that had complaints mostly mentioned durability issues, especially in the lower priced upholstered bed frame with headboard.
In addition to the foundation and foldable metal bed frame, we'll go through each of Nectar's platform bed frame options so that you can choose which design will work best for your bedroom.
First up, let's take a look at their Bed Frame With Headboard:
Nectar's original platform bed frame, the Bed Frame With Headboard starts at $745 for a queen before discounts. 8" legs support the bed frame with sturdy wooden slats (no box spring required). The button-tufted headboard offers a classic, no frills style. In both grey and linen, most customers are thrilled with their purchase. However, there were some rare complaints about longevity about the brackets for earlier models.
Next, we'll take a look at the modern upholstered Nectar Claremont Bed Frame:
With a mid-century modern design aesthetic, the Claremont comes at just under $1,000 for a queen before discounts. The upholstered wooden frame offers a stylish padded headboard with sleek straight lines. Similar to Nectar's other frames, no box springs are needed and there are sturdy wooden slats for a solid foundation for the mattress. At a 15" height, customers describe an easy to assemble bed frame with rare complaints mentioning leveling.
Next, let's check out the minimalist, modern Nectar Aurora Bed Frame:
Coming in natural pine or walnut, the Aurora is made of natural pine wood and is exceptionally affordable at $670 for a queen before discounts. Solid wooden slats provide a perfect foundation for mattresses. Sitting at a lower profile of 12", most customers offer high praise for the sturdiness and value of this bed frame.
Next, we'll go through the industrial chic Millburn Metal Frame:
At $745 before discount for a queen, this ultra-sturdy bed frame offers a lot to love. In either black or white powdered-coated steel, sturdy metal slats keep things secure night after night. At 14" height, customers have had only good things to say about the style and assembly.
Lastly, let's take a look at the modern industrial Trenton Metal Frame:
The Trenton Metal Frame offers a price of just over $800 for a queen before discounts. The style is modern with industrial powder coated metal accents. Wood panels offer a rugged look in the headboard and footboard. At 14" height, most everyone describes well-made, easy to assemble designs. Rare complaints mention delivery damages.
Customers describe set up times that are mostly short and easy. The foldable metal bed frame is by far the easiest to assemble. The foundation requires no tools and can be assembled in minutes with the slats being easily rolled on. The bed frame with headboard and platform beds come with some instructions and tools, but customers describe the processes are simple and quick.
Nectar has competitively priced options, which are convenient for most shoppers. For those that are looking for designer charm, Nectar's platform beds really offer high value, stylish choices.
I love this headboard. I was able to put it together myself with minimal anguish. It looks great and I was impressed with how they managed to fit all the necessary parts and tools inside for shipment.
The frame is smooth, low profile and not noisy at all (both figuratively and literally speaking). A nice compliment to a nice bed... they look so cute together
I absolutely love my mattress and my platform bed! I haven’t slept this well in years. I highly recommend getting the mattress protector as well considering Nectar has a pretty awesome warranty if you take care of your product (:
We have enjoyed our nectar bed since getting it.
Very comfortable mattress for affordable price
I am a very skeptical person who never really likes to order big ticket items online especially things like a whole new bed and mattress. I have a bad back, had previous back surgery and have arthritis so I needed a comfortable bed because I was in pain literally every night from my old mattress. I did a lot of research online with these different companies but I settled on Nectar because the 365 trial period sold me, you can’t go wrong with that. I figured if I didn’t like it I will just send it back. Well, it’s not going anywhere, this is the most comfortable mattress I have EVER slept on and I literally hate getting out of bed in the morning, it’s so hard!!!! I love it. No more aches and pains!! Try it, you will not regret it.
We couldn’t be happier with the Nectar bedframe and headboard. We like knowing it was made specifically to support our mattress, which we absolutely love. I like to read in bed, and the tufted headboard is perfect to lean against for comfortable bedside reading.
We are so happy with our Nectar mattress. We ordered it on a Thursday and the mattress and frame arrived within a week. It was so easy to put together. The best is so comfortable, my husband and I don’t ever know when the other person moves. The nice part about the whole thing is it is so easy to assemble and all the frame prices fit inside the headboard for easy moving. Thank you Nectar. We are so happy
Bought the bed for my son. The entire family is jealous. He loves it!
Bought two of these headboards and they are great. Assembly was straightforward and simple.
Easy to assemble and looks great!
Amazing! I can actually sleep well now
The headboard was super easy to put together. It’s very sturdy and looks amazing! Highly recommend it. I liked the first one I ordered so much, I ordered a second for our other Nectar mattress. Love my Nectar
I like my interaction with the Nectar team. I felt supported and appreciated.
Easy to put together and very comfortable
We initially bought the basic platform bed which was nice quality and easy to set up but then I happened to look online and see the dark gray padded headboard (I had missed it earlier) and decided to return the platform bed and purchase the padded one instead. So glad I did. Love the quality and look.
The bed is awesome
This bed is surprisingly light weight and easy to assemble. I love how it looks and compliments our other bedroom furniture.
I was skeptical to purchase online without knowing how the bed felt but I am very pleased, its firm but not hard. I'm sleeping better than I have in months.
I have had the best sleep I have had in a long time.With arthritis sometimes it's very hard to get good sleep.I love my bed frame and headboard too they are very nice.Over all very happy.
The bed is RIDICULOUSLY comfy. I literally stewed on getting it or not for 2 months while on a air mattress.. Reading reviews, comparing with other beds, etc.. No problems with heat, firm/soft ratio, quality, or size. Just get it already!
Perfect. I had someone set it up and it's just as nice as I expected!
We went from a queen Tempur-Pedic to a king Nectar. We can’t tell the difference and the nectar is 1/2 or Moore cheaper we paid 1500 for a king with the frame where a tempur pedic is 3500 just for the mattress. Great deal for the money!!!
This is the bed that supports both of us. We love the bedframe the appearance is very modern and stylish. We paid extra for the white glove service and we’re so happy that we did I highly recommend it! We will be ordering sheets from Nectar real soon.
I ordered the headboard/frame combination thinking that it would be nice to have a headboard for our guest room bed, and it truly is a beautiful addition to our home. A wholly unexpected source of delight was the extra structure provided for our Nectar mattress by having the bed frame wrapped around it: no accidentally rolling off the edge of this mattress. This piece is both beautiful AND functional!
At the age of 80 I have owned several beds, the Nectar is the most comfortable I have slept on waking up with no back or muscle aches. The headboard is attractive.
Took a little time to get use to it. But I sleep good now. Still trying to adjust the pillows to were I can sleep on them
I've been a skeptic of memory foam mattresses but this is perfect. Firm but comfy, no movements felt when some moves.
Sturdy bed frame that was easy to put together. Appears to be well-built.
I have had trouble over the last several years finding a mattress that is right for me. And this mattress so far fits the bill. I like my mattress firm but not hard and Nectar fits that bill. When I lay down on it, I don't sink down into it. However it is comfortable. I am not so high off the ground that I need a step stool to get in and out of bed. Good job Nectar.
Great mattress
The bed frame I ordered looked exactly as I expected after seeing the pictures online. The set up was easy and there were no missing pieces. My bedroom is carpeted and this frame sits solidly on the floor. I'm very happy with my purchase.
We love our new king bed from Nectar, easy to assemble and very sturdy and it looks great
Thus is a beautiful piece of quality furniture! Very well made and definitely comfy!! Awesome value, plus 2 free pillows! Love everything about it! Easy to set up. Arrived in a few days, no hassles! Thank you! Hope to enjoy this for many years!
This bed is awesome and so comfortable.
Beautiful and stylish! Easy to assemble and sturdy.
We love our new bed! I was a little skeptical at first but I truly have had the best sleep ever since we got this!!
Love these items!! Great look, solid construction, easy setup. Very pleased with my purchase!!
Easy to setup and good quality!
God looking, sturdy and easy to put together. Love this bed frame and head board!
Looks very nice and appears to be very well built. Since no box springs are needed with this mattress, you can get this frame with mattress for less than $1500. It's super comfortable and a steal at that price!
Awesome
I purchased the mattress and frame after lots and lots of searching and recently having hip surgery. I needed a lower mattress. The frame came ruined and once I contacted nectar they immediately replaced my headboard. The mattress... I can’t say enough good things about it. I love it. It is the most comfortable mattress I’ve ever owned. The mattress protector is also a great buy. The headboard is not very tall but matched perfectly with the mattress. I would purchase this bed again.
Works great. Easy to install
Very sturdy and looks amazing!
Very clean look. Fits perfectly with the bed!
Better than I expected
The king mattress and the upholstered headboard are exactly what I was looking for. My body feels much better after a month of sleeping on my Nectar. Highly recommend!
Perfectly firm!
Very stylish - easy set up!
I an very pleased with my headboard and frame for the king sized Nectar mattress!! Good quality, modern and easy to assemble!
We’ve had our Nectar mattress and headboard for about a month now, and to be completely honest I can’t believe I went this long without it! My boyfriend always tossed and turned throughout the night, waking me up, and always radiated heat while he slept. Now he sleeps completely sound, and doesn’t “sweat the bed” anymore. As far as I’m concerned, my back pain is completely gone, and I’ve never had a better nights sleep! I don’t wake up in the middle of the night anymore, and as an added bonus the memory foam pillows are glorious! I HIGHLY recommend this bed!
Well made and very easy to put assemble! Goes great with our new mattress!
Easy setup and a very sturdy bed!
Most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on.
This bed is THE most comfortable bed I have ever owned! After coming home from vacation I appreciate my bed that much more.
The frame and headboard are nice. Seem to be fairly solid build and look nice.
This bed frame was easy to assemble. It’s sturdy and great looking. I’m so happy I made this purchase!
It wasn't too hard to put together, and we love it almost as much as we love our Nectar mattress. Great product!
A high quality piece for the price. I was able to put it together by myself and it is very sturdy. The clean lines of the headboard and the dark color of the fabric accent my mid century modern decor perfectly.
It is a great mattress, great sleep so far!
We love our new nectar headboard/frame and mattress! You will not regret this purchase!
I just love my new Nectar bed I bought the whole bed with frame and headboard, the mattress is like a dream to sleep on, best night sleep I have had in a long time. Thank you
I purchased the king mattress, frame and headboard about 3-4 weeks ago. I am extremely pleased! It looks so elegant and the mattress is so comfortable. My husband suffers from back pain and this mattress has done wonders for him. Highly recommend!!
I was of course a little hesitant to believe the hype, but I was proved wrong. This bed is extremely comfortable and I thoroughly look forward to sleepy time each evening. Highly recommend the trial to see for yourself!
Best nights sleep we’ve gotten in a long time. Easy assembly, fits the room perfectly/not bulky looking, perfect height, form fitting mattress that’s not too soft or hard. Everything is absolutely better than we imagined!
The Nectar mattress is so comfortable. It’s firm yet soft. The headboard & frame is a pretty dark gray. I’m so happy with my bed. I recommend the Nectar mattress & bed to anyone.
Great bed,have to try it to love it!
This is a super sturdy bed-frame. Easy to put together. Headboard is comfy to lay against/lean back on.
I really had no idea what to expect. I suspected a decent product at an inflated price. I mean how good could a bed in a box be? Wrong. This mattress is really comfortable and firmer than I expected - which is perfect for me. Thus far, very very happy. The headboard I would is fine. Nothing fancy and required assembly. Perhaps a bit over priced.
Love this headboard/frame! Very good quality and looks way more expensive then it actually was! Would definitely recommend it!
I love it, very sturdy and contemporary
love it
Great
The platform bed with headboard looks great, is very sturdy bd not difficult for two people to assemble. The mattress is great and very comfortable. I definitely recommend Nectar the mattress!!
Excellent! Easy to put together, and its beautifully made. Thank you.
We really like the bed frame with headboard. It's a nice addition to our comfy mattress.
I’ve been having amazing nights rest. No more back pain!
THE BEST I HAVE SLEPT IN TWENTY YEARS
Great comfort at a great price. Easy to get in and set up.
I purchased the queen size frame and headboard with my queen size mattress and I absolutely love it. I upgraded from a twin to a queen for the first time in my life and Nectar has been fantastic help. The headboard and frame and very simple to put together and the instructions are very clear on what to do. Ito took me about 30-40 min to have the whole thing built. I would definitely recommend Nectar if you are looking for a complete, new bed setup.
This was easy to put together, sturdy, and looks very nice. We are thoroughly enjoying our completely new bed. In my opinion, it is well worth the price.
Love this bed frame and headboard!
Great!!! Awesome frame, easy to set up fits perfectly with the mattress differently would buy again
We are in love with our new Nectar King mattress! The best sleep I’ve had in a long time. The headboard and frame were easy to assemble and it’s beautiful! The mattress came in 3 days and headboard a few days later. No complaints here. Thank you!
I bought the bed frame and headboard after being very happy with my nectar mattress. I like the bed frame just fine. It is stable and easy to assemble. I had some issues with delivery, but the customer service team did they everything they could to help remedy the situation. I’d recommend this product.
We do like the frame and headboard, but wish that the headboard had been a bit wider to accommodate a clock radio and our cell phones. We may decide to upgrade to a king size unit because our previous waterbed had been king and and think we might enjoy the king berr%
Would have given a 5 but the box came pretty beat up and some of the pieces that was stacked into the headboard were coming out. We had to staple the material back onto the headboard because it was torn away. Otherwise we like the frame and headboard.
Exactly as pictured. The parts come packed in the headboard and can damage the back of the headboard if that matters to you. Not difficult to assemble. Shipping was delayed a week waiting for pickup from the source. Good value for the price.
The Nectar is super comfortable and I absolutely love the sleep i get on it. My one concern is that I feel like it is already compressing after only 1 month; something that Nectar claims doesn’t happen. The one side that I sleep on is definitely softer and more compressed than the other side and doesn’t spring back during the day. I’ll be keeping an eye on it.
Once put together, I absolutely love my headboard and frame. The design is much stronger than I expected and the packaging is very novel, at least to my experience. Putting it all together is another thing entirely. The instructions are fairly straightforward, but making things go where they're supposed to can be a bit tricky. The whole process is definitely easier if you have a helper.
I love this bed frame with headboard, it looks good and was easy to assemble. Only problem for me is that the center support along the sides of the bed are easy to stub your toes on.
Coming out of 15 yrs on a sleep number the nectar seemed to be a bit on the soft side. It's been a month and after this time we have noticed depressions where we lay and I will inspect the foundation for flatness. We seem to be adjusting to the softness with deeper sleep and less aches and pains
I ordered the Nectar Mattress based upon reviews, and although it's in the guest bedroom, I've laid on it a few times and it does seem very comfortable. I also ordered the fabric bed frame and headboard they offered, and it was "okay". The parts are all shipped inside the back of the headboard, and it was quite heavy. It unzips and the parts are removed for installation. Part of the back of the headboard was ripped, probably in shipping, since the weight of the entire unit is pretty high. It looks fine assembled since the tear is on the back. Still, not a perfect solution. Also, the odor emitted from either the mattress or the headboard is pretty excessive. I let is "off gas" for about a week before putting sheets and comforter on it, but the odor remains. Even after a month, it's still noticeable. All in all though, the bed looks nice and seems quite comfortable.
Sturdy, relatively easy to put together. A bit longer than expected due to the lip.
Good
Very comfortable, the only reason I gave this a 4 star instead of 5 star is because I do get a little warm at night because of the mattress.
Easy to put together, could be a bit more sturdy as far as the external frame itself, which is what I didn’t give a 5 star rating but the price was good, the setup was good, it supports my mattress very well and looks very sharp.
medium firm mattress that slowly softens and supports. foundation very easy to assemble. slight heat from mattress. purchased twin & queen. queen feels firmer than twin.
The bed is definitely good looking. In my head I thought the headboard would be a bit taller, but chalk that up to my own preconceived notions. It is pretty straight forward to assemble. I consider myself a fairly handy person and I was able to put it together in about an hour.
This bed frame is stylish and I love the gray color. It was fairly easy to assemble. It’s very supportive and the price was well under similar bed frames. The package arrived damaged but luckily the frame inside was fine. Only thing I don’t care for is I think the end of the bed frame is too bulky and sticks out a little too far. Overall I’m very happy with the purchase.
I love the fabric headboard and frame. The color is a deep rick grey and it’s beautiful! It’s a smidge wobbly but other than that seems pretty sturdy! Love it
Easy setup and makes a big difference sleeping. Bed is more comfortable on a frame.
other than a hole in the back part, which is quite thin, the rest of the bed was delivered in great condition. I'm enjoying the frame and how my mattress doesn't shift on it at all. it's low enough for my 1 year old to get on and off the bed.
Great mattress! Enjoyed the king sized bed from the first day I received it.
The frame is sturdy, and was very easy to assemble. I wish the headboard was taller though, especially for a King. You can barely see it with the pillows propped up.
I thought I was going crazy when I read this review, but I now realize the twin size and queen size foundations are two completely different products. Do not, I repeat do NOT buy the twin size foundation. The entire frame is made of thin, cheap wood and the slats are just small enough to slide under the rails. Complete waste of money and I now have to buy a new bed frame because this was absolutely terrible.
This foundation is cheaply made. Ours collapsed after 3.5 months, and the replacement sent was uglier and flimsier, and totally different from the one displayed above. Customer service refused to give me a refund, and offered to send me a third garbage foundation. Why would I want MORE of this hassle? Bad quality, bad customer service. Positive reviews are definitely fake. Read the negative reviews for this furniture. You'll see lots of people referencing flimsy legs, plastic connectors, slats that don't fit the frame, pieces that collapse under you while you are sleeping. This was my experience, and many other people's experience also. Nectar needs to stop filling up landfills with this garbage!
Looks nice but the materials it's made from are about the cheapest possible. The slats that run across the frame for support, are just thin pieces of plywood that will be sagging relatively soon. Especially since the legs provided to support them are too short. Because they're too short, despite the adjustable screw-on feet, the frame dips into the center and does exactly what we did not want. Does exactly what we bought a brand new set to prevent. The mattress is great so far, but the frame is pretty much garbage. More expensive than IKEA but pretty much the same particle board, plywood, disposable crap. Not made to last and not made to be functional. Only to look good for a short period. Extremely bummed about this since I have never in my life purchased a new bed set. Never been able to afford it and still can't really, but back and neck issues forced it. After all the work it took to drag the enormous packages inside and up the stairs, put them together, etc. it would have been so nice to have it pay off for once.
We chose the full size upholstered bed frame with fabric and it broke within the first week. Cheap particle board construction cannot hold the bolts of the frame. The side rails are very delicate and cannot hold the brackets. Their king size might have inner metal frame, the smaller size are not worth a penny
This frame has completely fallen apart within the year. My wife and I are not a large couple (180lbs and 120lbs) and this kind sized frame has wooden parts of the rails that are protruding now and only held on by the fabric. Sent pictures to Nectar support since they supposedly have a lifetime warranty and they just gave me the runaround wanting more and more pictures and proof. Not even worth replacing as the quality control and build quality are just complete crap. I would advise to avoid Nectar at all costs.
The metal legs have completely sheered off of the metal part that attaches the leg to the rest of the frame. There is no fix, the frame is trash at this point. Frame lasted right around 3 years and a few months. I the frame is garbage. Don’t buy it.
We ordered the platform bed with our mattress in August 2019. The bed has broken and the company will not do anything to make it right. Don’t waste your money on the platform bed. It is a piece of junk. We expected a better product with better service.
Very dissapointed with the cali king sized base bedframe, not sturdy, very noisy, the feet bent. I called to possibly upgrade to the adjustable bedframe but it was 5 days past the return point and they only offered for a replacement i feel like me spending another $1k would be more beneficial. I ended up buying a frame off amazon 100 times better and 1/3 of the cost. If your a big person over 250 and buy a cali king bed please skip this frame extreme waste of money.
