Know before you buy
No, the Bennington Bed is designed as a platform bed with a solid wood construction that provides full support for your mattress. You can place your mattress directly onto the frame, eliminating the need for a box spring.
All three options—cherry, maple, and walnut—are premium hardwoods chosen for their longevity. Cherry is known for darkening over time, maple offers a smooth, light, and uniform grain, and walnut provides a rich, dark aesthetic with striking character.
Yes, you can select between a 42-inch or 48-inch headboard height to better suit your bedroom's proportions and ceiling height. Both options maintain the signature vertical slat detailing and traditional design.
Because each piece is made to order by Vermont Furniture Designs, the crafting process typically takes between 8 and 12 weeks. This ensures each bed is built with the precision and quality expected of solid wood furniture.
The high footboard is a defining feature of the traditional design, providing a balanced, centerpiece look. While it creates a more enclosed feel, it is standard for this style and does not impede standard mattress use.
Vermont Furniture Designs stands behind their craftsmanship with a lifetime guarantee on the furniture. This covers the structural integrity of the bed, ensuring it remains a lasting investment for your home.
