FAQs

What size mattress does the GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed accommodate?

This bed frame is designed for a standard 135cm (Double) mattress. Please ensure your mattress matches this size for a proper fit.

Is self-assembly difficult for this bed?

The bed requires self-assembly. While specific difficulty varies by individual, clear instructions are provided. We recommend setting aside adequate time and perhaps enlisting a second person to assist, especially with larger components.

How much storage space is available under the bed?

The GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed features a generous deep storage space underneath the sprung slatted base. It is designed to accommodate quilts, cushions, extra bedding, and various other items to help declutter your room.

What materials is the bed frame made from?

The bed frame is constructed from durable rubber wood and steel, ensuring solid construction and stability.

How do I clean and maintain the oak wood finish?

To clean the oak finish, wipe it down with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, which can damage the wood. Regularly check and tighten any loose fittings to maintain structural integrity.

Does the ottoman base use a gas lift mechanism?

The product description states the sprung slatted base can be 'easily lifted from the foot end' to access storage. It does not explicitly mention a gas lift mechanism. (Info needed: confirm if gas lift is included for easier lifting).

What is the warranty period for this product?

The GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed comes with a 12-month guarantee from the date of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Bed frame creaks or feels unstable after assembly.

Ensure all screws, bolts, and fasteners are fully tightened. Sometimes, components settle after initial use; re-tightening all connections after a week or two can resolve minor creaks. Check that the bed is placed on a level surface.

Ottoman base is difficult to lift or close.

First, ensure there is no mattress on the bed if you are just testing the mechanism. Check that all hinges and gas-lift components (if present, info needed) are correctly installed and aligned according to the assembly instructions. Ensure nothing inside the storage compartment is obstructing the mechanism.

Storage compartment does not close flush or evenly.

Verify that no items within the storage space are obstructing the closing of the base. Check the alignment of the base frame with the main bed frame and ensure all connecting hardware is properly seated and tightened.

Wood surface shows minor scratches or scuffs.

For light scratches, you can often use a wood repair marker or touch-up pen that matches the oak finish. For deeper marks, a wood filler followed by stain or paint may be necessary. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Delivery was to doorstep only, and I can't move it myself.

While delivery is to the doorstep, consider arranging for assistance from family, friends, or a local service to help move the boxes into your desired room. Unpacking boxes outside the room can make individual components lighter to transport.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup & Assembly

The GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed is supplied as a self-assembly product. It will arrive in several boxes with all necessary components and instructions.

  1. Preparation: Before starting, ensure you have sufficient clear space to work in. Unpack all components and verify against the parts list in the manual.
  2. Tools: Typically, basic tools like an Allen key (usually supplied) and a screwdriver will be required.
  3. Follow Instructions: Carefully follow the step-by-step assembly guide provided with the product. Pay close attention to securing all fasteners properly for stability and safety.
  4. Lifting Mechanism: When assembling the ottoman lift mechanism, ensure all hinges and components are aligned correctly before tightening fully. It's often easier to fit the mattress after the frame is fully assembled and tested.

Compatibility

  • Mattress Size: This is a double bed frame designed for a 135cm wide double mattress.
  • Room Size: Dimensions are D: 201 cm W: 150 cm H: 114 cm. Ensure your bedroom has adequate space for the bed and to allow for the lifting mechanism at the foot end.

Product Care & Maintenance

To ensure your GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed remains in excellent condition:

  • Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the rubber wood frame with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, which can damage the wood finish.
  • Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all screws and fittings to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain the bed's stability and prevent creaking.
  • Protecting the Base: When using the storage compartment, avoid overloading it or placing sharp objects directly on the base to prevent damage.
  • Ottoman Mechanism: Operate the lifting mechanism smoothly. Avoid forcing it open or shut. If it feels stiff, check for obstructions.
