Performance & Real-World Use The GFW Side Lift Ottoman Bed excels in providing a practical solution for modern living, particularly in smaller spaces. Its primary function is to offer significant hidden storage without sacrificing bedroom aesthetics. Imagine neatly storing away extra bedding, seasonal clothes, or even children's toys, all within easy reach yet out of sight. The gas hydraulic lift system ensures that accessing this storage is not a chore; with a gentle lift, the mattress platform glides upwards, revealing a spacious compartment. This smooth operation means you won't struggle or strain when retrieving items. The ability to choose whether the bed lifts from the left or right side during setup is a huge advantage, allowing you to tailor the bed to your room's specific layout and door swings. For instance, if one side of your bed is against a wall, you can configure the lift to open from the accessible side. The hopsack fabric not only looks good but also feels pleasant to the touch and holds up well to daily use, making it a functional and attractive centrepiece for your bedroom.

Setup, Compatibility & Care ### Setup The GFW Side Lift Ottoman Bed is designed for straightforward home assembly. It comes with colour-coded assembly holes to guide you through the process. 1. Unpack all components: Carefully lay out all parts, hardware, and the instruction manual. 2. Identify parts: Match components using the colour-coded labels and illustrations in the manual. 3. Assemble the frame: Follow the step-by-step instructions, paying close attention to securing all bolts and fittings. 4. Install the gas lift mechanism: This critical step requires careful alignment. Ensure the gas lifts are installed correctly according to the chosen side (left or right) for lifting. 5. Place the mattress platform: Secure the platform to the gas lift mechanism. 6. Position your mattress: Once assembled, place your small double mattress on top. Ensure all fittings are tight before use. ### Compatibility This bed is designed to fit a small double mattress. Please ensure your mattress dimensions match this size for optimal fit and function of the ottoman lift. ### Care - Fabric Care: For the hopsack fabric frame, regularly vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris. - Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild fabric cleaner sparingly, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals. - Gas Lift Maintenance: Periodically check the gas lift mechanism for smooth operation. Ensure no objects are obstructing the lifting path. If the lift becomes stiff, ensure all hinges are clear and lightly lubricated if specified in the manual. - Frame Maintenance: Periodically re-tighten any loose bolts or screws to maintain the bed's stability and prevent squeaking.
