Know before you buy
No, the Calisto platform bed features integrated slats designed to support your mattress directly. You can place your mattress straight onto the frame, which helps maintain the bed's low-profile aesthetic.
The headboard offers multiple height settings, allowing you to customize the look and comfort level based on your mattress thickness and personal preference. You can adjust the position during the assembly process to suit your needs.
To keep the finish looking its best, simply dust the frame regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polish, as these can damage the ash veneer over time.
Yes, the low-profile design and tapered legs create an open, airy feel that prevents the room from feeling crowded. Its streamlined silhouette is specifically well-suited for smaller spaces where you want to maximize visual floor area.
The bed is constructed from a combination of solid rubberwood for structural integrity, MDF with ash veneer for a refined finish, and LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) for the support slats. This blend ensures a balance of durability and mid-century style.
Assembly is required and involves attaching the frame components and the adjustable headboard. While it is a straightforward process, we recommend having a second person assist you to ensure all parts are aligned and tightened correctly.
