Zinus Caleb Double Metal Bed Frame, Black
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The spec sheet is where this one gets interesting.

The bullets call it heavy-duty steel for strength, while a special-features field says 'Lightweight'. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing, not from our own testing.
