Know before you buy
The Sarah Sleigh Bed is versatile and can be configured for either a mattress-only setup using the included platform slats or a traditional mattress and box spring combination using the reinforced T-slat system.
Each piece is finished with a clear, eco-friendly lacquer. This protective coating is designed to be low-maintenance and durable while highlighting the natural color variations and grain patterns of the solid cherry wood.
Yes, the bed arrives unassembled. It utilizes a robust fastening system consisting of headless threaded machine bolts, wooden dowel pegs, and a hex nut mechanism to ensure a secure, squeak-free connection between the rails and the headboard.
The frame includes center support legs to prevent sagging and ensure structural integrity. If you choose the platform configuration, it features six 10-inch wide slats spaced 2 inches apart to provide a stable, even surface for your mattress.
Because each bed is crafted individually in Vermont after your order is placed, the artisans can carefully select and match the solid cherry wood boards. This ensures a consistent aesthetic and allows for the high level of craftsmanship required for the lifetime guarantee.
Yes, American cherry is a light-sensitive wood that will naturally darken and develop a rich, deep patina as it is exposed to light. This is a characteristic feature of the species and contributes to the bed's evolving beauty.
