FAQs
What size mattress does this bed require?
This is a small double bed, requiring a mattress typically measuring 120cm x 190cm (approximately 4ft x 6ft3).
Do I need a box spring with this bed?
No, the bed features a platform support system, so a box spring is not required. Your mattress can be placed directly on the platform.
How much weight can the bed frame support?
While specific weight limits are not provided, the bed is constructed with a sturdy frame designed for reliable everyday use and mattress support.
Can the drawers be assembled on either side of the bed?
The drawers are typically designed for a specific side during assembly, as indicated in the instruction manual. Please refer to the assembly guide for precise details.
What material is the bed frame made from?
The bed combines natural oak warmth with crisp white accents, suggesting a construction likely involving wood or engineered wood with a veneer or painted finish.
How deep are the under-bed drawers?
The drawers are described as 'spacious' and designed for practical storage, but specific depth dimensions are not provided. They are suitable for items like bedding or folded clothing.
Is the assembly difficult?
The bed requires self-assembly. While instructions are provided, it is recommended to have basic tools and follow the steps carefully. Two people may be beneficial for certain stages.
Troubleshooting
Bed frame feels wobbly or unstable
Ensure all screws and fixings are securely tightened. Check that the frame is assembled on a level surface.
Drawers are difficult to open or close
Verify that the drawer runners are correctly installed and aligned. Clean any dust or debris from the runners. Ensure the drawer is not overloaded.
Missing parts during assembly
Double-check all packaging materials. Contact customer support with your order details and the specific part number needed.
Screws will not tighten
Ensure you are using the correct screws for the designated holes. Do not overtighten screws, as this can strip the threading.
