Know before you buy
The frame arrives unassembled to ensure safe transit. You will need basic tools to connect the components, and we recommend having a second person assist with the assembly to manage the weight of the solid oak pieces.
The bi-fold mechanism allows you to transition the frame from a sofa to a bed by lifting the seat section and pulling it forward. It is designed for smooth operation, though it requires enough clearance in front of the unit to fully extend into the bed position.
Yes, the optional hand-rubbed linseed oil finish is completely VOC-free and chemical-free. It provides a natural, protective barrier for the wood without off-gassing, making it an excellent choice for a healthier home environment.
No, the frame is sold separately from the mattress. It is engineered to support standard Full or Queen size futon mattresses, so you can choose the comfort level and thickness that best suits your needs.
Mortise-and-tenon is a traditional woodworking technique that creates a much stronger bond than simple screws or brackets. By interlocking the wood pieces, the frame gains superior structural integrity and resistance to wobbling over years of daily use.
Yes, the frame is available in both Full and Queen configurations. Please ensure you measure your available floor space carefully, as the Queen size requires a larger footprint both in the sofa and bed positions.
