Know before you buy
No, the Flint Platform Bed is designed with integrated wood slats that provide sufficient support for your mattress, so a box spring is not necessary.
The ash walnut finish is durable, but we recommend dusting it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polish to preserve the integrity of the stained wood.
The bed features tapered legs that provide enough clearance for easy cleaning underneath, though it is not designed for under-bed storage bins.
The spindle design is primarily aesthetic and provides a firm, open-back support. If you prefer a soft surface for reading, you may want to add a few decorative pillows for extra cushioning.
Assembly is required and typically takes two people to complete. All necessary hardware and instructions are included, but having a power drill on a low-torque setting can help speed up the process.
