Know before you buy
You do not need a box spring if you choose the optional underbed storage drawers, which effectively convert the frame into a platform bed. If you prefer not to use the storage drawers, you can still use the included 1x3 slats to support your mattress, though you may prefer a box spring depending on your desired bed height.
The optional low footboard stands at 17 inches, compared to the standard 28¾-inch height. This choice is ideal for smaller bedrooms or for those who prefer a more open, accessible feel that makes it easier to sit on the edge of the bed or change the linens.
Yes, the bed is fully customizable. You can select from various solid wood species and a wide range of stains to ensure the piece coordinates with your current bedroom set.
The bed is built with sturdy 6-inch side rails and includes a set of 1x3 wooden slats. Additionally, the frame features adjustable feet, allowing you to level the bed on uneven flooring for maximum stability.
The slats are positioned 8⅛ inches from the floor. This height provides a solid foundation for your mattress while leaving enough space underneath if you choose not to add the optional storage drawers.
