DormCo Reviews 482

Website was a little hard to navigate but ordering was easy and shipping was fast.

Perfect fit. Quick shipping. Exactly what we needed. Thank you.

Loved the product, however when box was opened, it was not packaged correctly, and some parts looked used/opened. You could tell the item had been previously opened, or put together and returned.
Instructions included were useless, we just figured it out on our own.
Once together though, the stand is nice and holds up well.

looks good and it didnt take my dad too long to put together while i was moving into my dorm

This was a gift, as far as I know it arrived without a problem. And relatively quickly. :)

I love the comforter it is comforting and warm the sheets are soft. The mattress topper and stuff did it’s job to where it is sooooo comfy. Thank you!!

Awesome service! Packages arrived earlier than expected and were there for us to collect prior to move in. I will definitely be using this service again!

After installing them it was apparent that stability is not a hallmark of these risers.
As we moved the bed back into place against the wall, the legs would tilt slightly. Even after getting the bed in place and kicking the risers back into position, if you rocked the bed you could sense that it wasn't 100% stable. At this point I'm still considering sending them back, but the bed hasn't 'crashed' yet. We'll see.
I grew up in a family of carpenters. Here are my observations/suggestions:
1. The 'pocket' the legs of the bed sit in is not deep enough. It needs to be at least 4 inches deep for a riser that is 20+ inches tall. While this will impact how high the bed goes, you either build the riser longer to accommodate, or accept a slightly lower profile.
2. There should be twice as many screw holes and screws securing the riser to the bedpost, four high and four low set 2-3 inches apart vertically, to ensure that the riser can't move as these did. I know the metal plate inserts are supposed to stabalize this, but four more holes and screws couldn't hurt.
3. I would also include adjustable cross beams ( X )at the head and foot of the bed, or a single beam ( @-@ ) that uses a 2-4 inch 'collar' that would slide over the riser and screw into place to make the headboard and footboard risers two very stable, free-standing units.
4. For additional stability you could add a single, level 'collar' beam front-to-back, probably at 16-18 inches high, because of that higher center of gravity, that could be used on the side of the bed facing the wall. Then the entire frame would stand on it's own and be far more stable.

4. Optional: Include thick metal or wood 'spacers' to be placed in the risers for those rectangular or smaller square bedpost beds that might need them. This would make these risers far more marketable.

Suggestions 1, 2, and 4 shouldn't noticeably raise the cost.
If you want to keep close to your current price point, you could even sell Suggestion 3 as a separate 'upgrade' kit.

If you need some rough drawings to show visually what I'm describing, let me know.

Had a very good experience with them. The package arrived on due date with all items nicely packed. Quality of products are acceptable. Overall a nice experience.

The shelf was easy to put together. However the top wood piece was chipped on the corners. My son did not want to send it back so he just put the chipped corners to the back of the shelf.

Dormco was great to work with and made sure I received everything ordered before the kids moved in even with short notice. Everything received was good quality and it made the process much of getting the kids settled much easier.

I will NEVER order from Dorm Co again or recommend Dorm Co.
Your return policy is ridiculous and unheard of in today’s age. It would cost me as much as my order to send the items back.

My order came very fast and it was in perfect condition. Thank you.

Item was just like the picture but I thought it was bigger. I think I needed a full size

The desk hutch worked out perfect for her dorm desk. Super fast shipping.

Received very quickly. Good quality item.
