I had a bad experience purchasing a wooden base from an advertiser on Gumtree who goes by the name Tinashe (owner of Proficient Wood). Since I ordered the bed through Gumtree I did not have a chance to physically inspect the bed. The bed had all sorts of flaws, it was too long, the outer wood was not sanded and not even treated. I asked the owner to collect the bed and refund me but he gave me empty promises and never collected it. A week later I lifted the mattress and to my disgust I found that the entire base was infested with mould. This implies that the seller not only sold me an unfinished product but also used damaged and poor quality wood. Be warned not to fall for any low priced wooden bed bases out there as they are building sloppy products with bad quality materials, which is a major inconvenience since it affects your sleep, time and money.
