Good Bed
September 3, 2012
This is a good bed. Sturdy and solid.
I ordered it and they originally said shipping would take like 3 weeks, when online it had said 10 days. I got a little upset and I think they hustled to get me the bed in less than 2 weeks.
It all worked out nicely, and looks great.

Disappointed
March 23, 2012
Wow, the picture was so misleading the product didn't look anything like the picture when it came to the color of the bed, night and day difference. When the guys installed the frame they stripped the screws, installed the side rails in a hurry and bed squeaked. Returned it for the Sahara bed .......

The most beautifull bed ever!
March 22, 2012
After 29 years with the same head and foot board it is such a pleasure to walk in our bedroom and see my new Mendocino Bed. The quality is top. I really love it. Thank you Pottery Barn.

Quality and comfort!
January 20, 2012
This bed is more beautiful than could be imagined... the craftsmanship is superb. Must mention the professional installers with their curteous and quick, no nonsence installation. This was my first experience ordering furniture online from PotteryBarn...and it was well worth it.

Gorgeous Bed
December 7, 2011
I love, love this bed! You can't really tell from the catalog pictures what this bed really looks like, and its fabulous. When I pass the doorway to this bedroom, I stop and marvel at the beauty of this bed. It is my favorite piece of furniture in my home!

Substantial Bed
October 10, 2011
Application was for my 1940's themed office/ extra guest bed. The bed is very well made. The joints are simple. The spindles are thick. The bed does not wobble, very solid. The color is oil rubbed bronze, but the texture is matte like an iron bed. The box spring supports are screwed into the frame and each "slat" has its own foot support. No creaking! The bed was very well packed to prevent damage. It took the delivery guys more time to remove the packing than set it up. Note that as one of the close ups shows, the foot of the bed is VERY tight around the mattress. Select your bedding accordingly. The first metal bed that I like, yes love. Note the lead time, it won't arrive next week.

Focal point of our master bedroom
October 8, 2011
The Mendocino Bed completely transformed our bedroom. It is now the focal point of the room. We were a little hesitent about ordering the bed unseen but are so happy we did. The bed has great quality. We would highly recommend this bed if you are looking for an iron bed. You won't be disappointed.

So happy with this bed!
September 30, 2011
I had to write and say how happy I am with my purchase of this bed. I was a little worried purchasing it without being able to see it in person, but it turns out it is even more gorgeous than I expected. It is the perfect solution to a smaller bedroom. It's a very solid piece of furniture, not at all flimsy like other iron beds I had looked at. I love the way the headboard and footboard wrap around the mattress. I had never seen anything like it. It is a classic, beautiful piece of furniture that will never go out of style. Don't hesitate to buy it! You'll be thrilled!

Love my Mendocino Bed
September 15, 2011
I've had this bed since early 2011, and wasn't able to see it in a store. I searched online for other metal beds and didn't like what I saw. The lines in this bed are simple and elegant. It mixed in well with my solid wood set. I also like the lower end of the bed. Others I considered were all too high. Very happy I purchased this beautiful bed.

Excellent bed!
April 30, 2011
LOVE this bed and so happy we purchased it after reading the reviews. Very sturdy and doesnt shift or squeak at all. We're using a low profile mattress with a box spring cover instead of a bedskirt and the look is classic, tailored and chic. Couldnt be happier and after living with it for a few months, I can say that I would have paid even more for it. Great buy.

An Absolutely Beautiful Bed
March 24, 2011
I'd had my eye on this bed for quite some time and finally decided to buy it. The pictures in the magazines and online look great, but don't quite do it justice when you see it in your own home. It's really well-made and unique. I know it will be a piece of furniture I'll always enjoy.

Gorgeous, solid bed
March 24, 2011
I was eyeing this bed online for a month before we finally bought it. It is just as beautiful in person as I imagined it would be. I wanted something subtle but unique, that would go with any decor, and would work in any room as our family moves and grows. This is the bed! Love it.

Our Favorite Bed
March 1, 2011
I have had this bed for about 2 months - we love it!!!!!! The craftmanship is great!!! And, so far....no squeaking. A peaceful night sleep at last. It looks beautiful with our wood furniture. We are so pleased and thanks to all the great reviews. That's why we went with this bed.

SO glad we got it!
January 22, 2011
Had my eye on this bed from the catalog pics and then saw it in the store. Loved it and agree that the pics do not show the amazing quality craftsmanship of the bed...and Made in the USA! My husband surprised me with it as a gift...lucky me!
You have to see it and feel it. Gorgeous patina & finish, sturdy construction and stunning design. Every night I snuggle in and am SO glad we got it...every morning I make it up and praise it again!

Very Happy
January 9, 2011
I was hesitant to purchase this bed online without seeing it in person, but I am glad I did. It is beautiful. The quality is the best I have seen in a metal bed. The feel is vintage. It looks great with my other pieces - it blends old with new. I could not be happier.

great bed
November 3, 2010
Took a chance and ordered online without seeing in person. The bed is has a much more substantial look in person. It's the prettiest iron bed that I've found anywhere and am glad I made the purchase.

Old World Beauty...
October 7, 2010
Wonderful and sturdy - this bed is just one of the pieces of furniture that has transformed my "downsized" cape cod into my little dream house! Most of my pieces have come from Pottery Barn to keep the cottage look consistant - but the Mendocino is my pride and joy!!! Love it!
