Know before you buy
No, you do not need a box spring. The frame features integrated plywood slats designed to provide robust, direct support for your mattress.
Yes, The Milan Bed Frame is compatible with adjustable bases. You can place your adjustable base inside the frame, though you will need to remove the included plywood slats to accommodate it.
The headboard is fully upholstered on the back, allowing you to place the bed anywhere in the room. It functions perfectly as a freestanding statement piece.
The Milan Bed Frame offers 5.9 inches of underbed clearance, which is suitable for storing low-profile items like flat storage bins or slippers.
To keep the velvet looking its best, we recommend regular light vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to remove dust. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing the fabric.
Assembly is required, but it is designed to be straightforward. The frame comes with all necessary components, and you can typically complete the setup with basic tools and an extra set of hands.
