• . The only defect I found after using it was that- as the cross members were placed on upper side of legs and the longitudinal members placed on lower side the composite form the webbing gave for the user was concave in length and convex across. This did give the backbone a support not ideal and could create back problems. Hence for few days I tried it using it in the reverse fashion, i.e. legs up. This gave the back the necessary convex support, but the bed was very low. Over a period the problem was solved by simply changing the assembly of the same by placing the cross members on lower side. This solved the problem of convex and concave contours at the normal bed level. This exercise helped in future furniture design and making.
