James did a great job making our bed from pretty much pictures of our old bed and an explanation of what we had. We really didn't have any exact measurements but he pretty much nailed it. The craftsmanship is spot on and the work is guaranteed. He can make any type of bed really, and I believe our monster platform bed of this type was a first if I'm not mistaken. Plenty of stains and colors to choose from along with different kinds of solid real woods. Everything is hand made and custom so beds take a little while to get. Also make an appointment just don't show up, this is his shop and not a showroom. Call , leave a message, email and he will get back to you. Worth the wait.

Did not do business, but wanted to. Busy people need prices up front. I know most builds are custom, but a portfolio would help. Also. Realize the market changes & updates are a chore, but it would have made a difference for us. Best wishes & hope we can do some business next year.

OMG. I have such a beautiful bed frame! When ordering I had a choice of wood and colors and was sent pictures of the different types of wood. The frame is a piece of art and you can tell it's done with great care and precision. My room had a night stand which I had ordered from Amazon, and had put together myself. I was mentioning that the drawers were out because they didn't fit right, that I thought I received the wrong parts. Nope, James took a close look at the night stand and explained to me that I had I put it together wrong, that I had to switch a couple things around. What does he do? After he put the bed frame together, he fixed my nightstand! I was so grateful. Such a nice guy. Truly a good person. Excellent workmanship. If you want a good bed frame, don't go anywhere else! Thank you again, James!

After patiently waiting I finally received my bed last week, and it was worth the wait. I absolutely LOVE my new bed! I am happy to say that I am a "repeat" customer. I purchased my first bed from James in 2010 and I was very pleased with his work. Thanks James : )

After doing a lot of research I found the Aloha Boy, James the owner is the nicest person to work with. My daughter who is very picky had pictures of what she wanted, James took the picture and nailed it. I told him from the beginning she would be the critic but everything was perfect. She loves her platform bed. Guaranteed a date and came thru on that as well. Craftsmanship is of high quality. The whole experience was awesome. Highly recommend!Aloha James

Custom made to perfection. Had several items made by James. Many hours were spent into research before finally contacting for a custom theme bed. I wanted something from each picture and made into one perfect bed. Very impressed with my bed. Thanks a million.

This is an adventure story to find platform beds with a happy ending!After searching high and low - local sources just had the "same old, same old" stuff and on the internet to discover that there's no delivery service to Hawaii, the last resort was to just buy whatever was provided to the Hawaii consumer.One last search on the internet turned up The Aloha Boy. This was a life changer!! Flying in from Hilo for two-days, it was running around trying to get everything taken care of. Texting The Aloha Boy on Sunday, it was apparent that I was interrupting a family Sunday. James Le, owner of The Aloha Boy, texted back that he would be available Sunday afternoon.Meeting James at his shop, it was efficient with all of my questions and concerns answered. And, it was fast!!Shipping to Hilo was handled by James through Young Brothers to meet my busy travel schedule.I followed his directions and received the shipment from Young Brothers. Set-up was super easy with James writing and drawing step-by-step instructions on how everything is put together. Start to finish on the Queen platform bed frame was less than 30-minutes!! And that included me laying down to "test" my accomplishment! Yup, as I suspected from James - no creaks, no squeaks - just a good solid Queen sized platform bed frame!!Thank you James! U DA MAN and have my Mahalos!!Steve.

This review is long overdue. I needed an eastern king platform bed frame asap. Contacted James (Kimo), who responded immediately, answered all my questions, checked and double checked we were on the same page about the order specifications, and got to work as soon as my payment hit his account. I am an interior designer and particular by nature, my standards are nearly impossible to meet, but the bed frame exceeded them. Beautifully build, beautifully finished, delivered on time and no bs, I think Kimo's expectations, and the standards he holds himself to, might be a little higher than my own! A pleasure to do business with Aloha Boy.

Do not trust James the owner. I purchased a bed that I helped him design and the quality and workmanship is terrible. The finish is hardly sanded and rough to the touch. He made a huge mistake in the measurements and refused to fix it much less do anything. The bed sits below the frameHe then had the audacity to add the bed I designed to one of his collections. I contacted DCCA, Dept. of Commerce and Consumer affairs who after review agreed product defect and deception. They wrote him a letter and still refuse to honor his product. I did not have the time to take him to small claims court and he's lucky I let it go.After he has your money, he will not help you.He is a crook....Beware!

I'm I love my new platform bed! It was completed ahead of schedule, delivered and set up beautifully. James loves what he does and his care and professionalism shows in his work. He communicated with me along the way to ensure the details were how I wanted them. I am really happy with my purchase.
