Anyone have the Ikea Folldal bed? or Ikea recommendations?

I doubt I'm gonna find someone on mfp with this exact bed, but of course Ikea doesn't have reviews on their products.

Was just wondering if anyone had problems with it like mattress not fitting or anything like that.

I have a nice gift card to spend at Ikea. So any other recommendations would be appreciated.

    I've had a full-size ikea folldal bed frame with sultan hanestad mattress for 2 years and love love love my bed! The mattress is firm, which I prefer, and fits perfectly. The frame is beautiful, sturdy, and soft. I was planning to buy one of the cheap wooden frames at ikea at first, but after testing some out I really hated the sharp corners and hard edges and much prefer the soft leather of the Folldal. I was afraid about getting the white material dirty, scratched, etc. but it's held up beautifully and really easy to clean with just a damp washcloth when needed.

    My one warning is to be careful with dark / vibrant fabrics - I have a really cheap magenta pillow that I had propped against the headboard and stained the leather a little bit.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH for your response :) They actually have it in black now! So I went with that. :) I'm glad you like it though!

    If you don't mind me asking... how are you getting along with the Folldal bed now ruffledviolet? It's been just over a year since you posted and I was searching for reviews on the same bed (in black like yours) and was wondering if you were happy with it. We're in the UK and was looking for a decent frame and was just hoping that this was the one. Any info you can give would be gratefully received.
