I was looking for a bed that would fit into a small bedroom and had storage. After looking at several in local stores, I settled on the Bayview Palimeno storage bed because it was made from much sturdier lumber so the sleeper would not be shaken wake when they rolled over. I also bought an extra set of drawers (it comes with one for right or left side) to maximize storage. I paid $897.00. First the pros : Materials: constructed of beefy pine. Design: good, practical for intended use. The drawer slides are ok but will not stand much abuse that children might give them. Cons: Very poor finish: Burn and scuff marks all over left from a router. I doubt very much it was sanded at all. Stain looked like it was applied with a BBQ mop, spotty and very thin. No varnish. I refinished mine before assembling. Construction: I expected better. Rails are attached with long lag screws any side loading in this area while trying to move the bed will break the soft pine.

Read moreThis review is for "Bayview Movers" also owners of Bayview Furniture. Bayview came highly recommended and all the reviews I read had glowing reports.

It was a pleasure having them in my house seeing how professionally they worked. by the end of the move which took 3 days (we had a very large house with much furniture and articled in the loft), they felt like family and we even had lunch together on that last day. The guys that moved everything from the house to trucks and to storage did a great job working tirelessly. They were polite and very careful in how they moved larger heavy objects. Anthony also recommended very affordable climate controlled storage for us in Gulfport while we were waiting to decide when to ship everything to San Antonio, TX. I will not be considering anyone else to move us to San Antonio. It will be a pleasure to see them all again when...
