IKEA BRIMNES Bed frame with storage, Standard Double assembly instructions

[@Joovier]

Literally didn't use the manual at all and just followed this video. Thank you so much it was very simply put!

[@SubClicks]

How long does it take on average to complete this bed?

[@cordbanks6372]

Sub it took me five hours

[@sheeeesh9781]

Lol u so bad

[@KahroSynetic]

Took me five hours as well but no electric tools were used,could have reduced it to 3 hours

[@TempestBob]

About to start one now, the manual looks absolutely awful to follow. That's why I'm here. haha

[@victoriab185]

This is 4 years later but this helped me today. I spent 2 hrs on part 6 because the screws wouldn’t fit. I decided to follow your video and boom by the time I put the head/foot boards on the screws could be locked. Thank you!

[@quality_rachni]

Was it the middle screws you had problems with? I can't get them to lock 😭

[@seansmith2472]

Just used this video today, would’ve been sleeping on a mattress on the floor if this didn’t exist as ikea instructions were hopeless. Thank you 🙌

[@JonMorris93]

It took me until this video to realize the parts are split between box 1&2 but bag #1. So glad I took a minute to review this video before continuing. Thanks!

[@tiggertrekker]

This bed is a daunting task to try and do by myself. But after watching your video, then following along during the build, it made all the difference in the world. Thanks so very much for making sense of it all.

[@colleend2977]

We did it! Your instructions were spot on. The only change I made is in the beginning hooking those wing parts on by myself, it was hard to do. So I slid those big pieces underneath to hold them up. I waited to cam them down. Having my husband able to help later made it a bit easier but we have a small room like you had. Quite an adventure!

[@PPFlatPack]

[@cladyjovicaplv]

Did you do it and if so how long did it take you? I'm planning on building mine this week with my uncle who agreed to help but we'd love to know how long it could take us with the electric screwdriver... hopefully just a few hours! 😅

This is absolutely amazing. Great time saver, if you're a rookie like myself following step by step nonstop. It'll only take you around 4 hours. And that's pretty good in my opinion. But if you have electrical screw driver, I'd say you'll be done in 3 hours. Just a screw driver sucks man. Great video 10/10

[@TheNutbrittle]

Update: I did it! It took me about 6 - 6½ hours to finish everything including putting my mattress on the new bed frame! I'm literally exhausted, but it was worth it! I started with the drawers and finished with the base. The biggest challenge I faced was connecting the base to the front and to the back. My floor is uneven, so it didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped for. Anyway, I did well, and this video gave me the courage to do it myself. I also saved some money (Don't have to pay a handyman to do it for me.)

[@PPFlatPack]

Fantastic that's why I do this. Thank you for watching

[@i.6940]

Omg finally done. Did it by myself (alone) and it took 6.5 hours. But your video helped me so much! A little tip: be sure the screws on the rails for the drawers are really tight and completely in! Otherwise you will have problems at putting the drawers in and using them. Sadly securing one screw in the cross didn't work. It seemed like the hole for the Screw was a bit too long so the screw wasn't able to really stick out. The metal thing couldn't secure it :/ But the rest of the frame fixed that and I put a board underneath so it can't bend down.

[@PPFlatPack]

Glad it worked. Thank you for watching

@@normalgirl27 Hey, I did finish building it but I ended up just returning the bedframe LOL. For this step, I just had to make sure I didn't fully tighten the cams until I placed the other 2 in and half screw those in.
