Savoy Spool Bed

Rated 5 out of 5 by Molly Moo from Quality and beauty This bed is so perfect in my guest room. Got the 5" box springs and regular mattress for it and is not too high or too low. Loving it. So well made and put together! Will get used for years to come.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SallyJoe from Full speed ahead on this beauty! Love.this.bed. Extremely sturdy and a beautiful centerpiece in the room. You’ll want a low profile box spring (unless you want to completely cover the headboard and use a step stool to get into bed). Don’t hesitate on this beauty!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Missfatcat from Instructions for assembly wrong. Bed is beautiful The instructions for assembly are incorrect and the holes drilled for the bolts are too deep but one you get past the assembly, the bed is beautiful. I’d buy it again but I would suggest you have one of your employees actually put one together using the instructions. You will quickly find the faults.

Rated 5 out of 5 by K W N from Incredibly beautiful and well-built. I bought this bed a few weeks ago and it was promptly delivered within a week. It's gorgeous, sturdy, and relatively easy to assemble. I'd recommend having at least two people to assemble the bed, but four would be the most useful. It was slightly awkward getting the side rails onto the headboard/footboard with only two people. My other recommendation is to use a low profile (5") box spring / foundation. I used the virtual chat to ask Ballard if a box spring was necessary. The associate said they couldn't find information on whether or not it was, but was willing to ask another department. I told them not to bother and I waited until I had the bed to see for myself. In my opinion, the slats are too far apart to support a mattress without a foundation so I ordered one the next day. Before purchasing the bed, I read another review which recommended using a 9" box spring but I think that would make the bed way too high. You want to leave enough room to be able to layer some larger pillows like euro shams (26x26) or slightly smaller (24x24 or 22x22) in the back and still have the headboard show through. If you have a 9" box spring and a 14" mattress (which seems to be common nowadays), you risk blocking the entire headboard (if you plan to layer pillows). In the photo, my mattress is 11" and the box spring is 5" which I think is perfect. If your mattress is very tall, I'd even recommend a 2" foundation / bunkie board. Lastly, make sure you take good measurements before ordering if you plan to place the bed in front of a window! I've unfortunately decided to return this beauty because it's not going to work with the height of the window in my room, but if the circumstances were different I absolutely would have kept this bed!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Beach Houzzz from Built extremely well I was skeptical to buy it sight unseen - absolutely amazing product ! the black finish is so silky smooth and good looking, the bed does not even squeak when assembled. It's really gorgeous and reminds me of a very vintage bed from my grandmothers home.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Amy64 from GORGEOUS! Nothing else to say except this bed is absolutely gorgeous. It is still sitting in the guest room not yet put together but I find myself looking in frequently just to see the pieces! It is thick and beautiful and just looks like top quality. I need you to make this in a king size please!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Amy64 from GORGEOUS! This bed is just gorgeous, it looked great in the catalog and online, even better in person! I have not put it together yet, so it is just leaning against the wall in my guest room but I find myself walking by that room every so often just to look at the bed leaning against the wall, it is THAT good!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Beach Houzzz from Amazing Bed Very Impressive - The finish is smooth and pristine. I sincerely am still in amazement of the quality of this bed, It's SOLID no wiggle or movement whatsoever ! like a $5K bed is how it feels - I love it so much I ordered another one for a guest room in the antique white finish. Definitely won't disappoint.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Carter213 from Vintage spool bed - Quality reproduction Always wanted a spool bed but never found just what I was looking for. Leave it to Ballard's to have one! Shipped fast, heavy, well made - LOVE the look with my Ballard bedding. Many compliments! Used a standard box spring with the mattress. Easy to put together - screws were 1/4 inch to short to add all the required hardware (lock washer).

Rated 4 out of 5 by Ada W from Love it even if though the size is off Beautiful Bed. Like other reviewers I think some small sizing adjustments would make a huge improvement.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Hope it last? Bed is very pretty. Looks a little like a baby bed in the off white. The washers and nut/bolts do not work together. Unable to use washers. Bed did have a crack in sideboard. Maybe just the paint.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ACReno from Great look Very nice looking bed. I thought it would have a smaller old bed feeling being so open, but it has a very large presence and gives a more contemporary feel than I expected. Seems a little short as I can hardly get sheets on let alone tuck a wool blanket in at the foot, even with the mattress all the way against the headboard.
