Daybed with Trundle, 3FT Single, 201 x 107 x 80 cm, Beige

This daybed with trundle gives the bedroom a proper centrepiece: a padded frame you can sit up against, a headboard that softens a plain wall, and a footprint that leaves room to move. The Beige upholstery is the calm centre of the room, easy to pair with pale walls and warm wood.

Upholstered in Velvet with high-density foam underneath, it absorbs weight quietly and springs back into shape once you stand up. The seat platform is reinforced rather than stapled, which is why it does not dip in the middle after a few months.

Key features

• The slatted base is spaced to let air reach the mattress, which keeps it fresher and helps it keep its shape
• Assembly is straightforward: the frame arrives in labelled sections with the fixings, tools and instructions included
• The headboard is deep enough to sit against without a pillow, which matters for reading or watching television in bed
• Dimensions: 201 x 107 x 80 cm (L x W x H)
• Weight: 21 kg
• Materials: Velvet
• Colour: Beige

It works just as happily in a rented flat as in a family home, because the frame breaks down into manageable parts and goes back together with the fittings supplied. Turn the cushions now and then to even out the wear where everyone sits.

Keep it looking fresh by brushing the fabric weekly and dabbing spills rather than rubbing; most marks lift with a mild fabric cleaner and a soft cloth.

A solid base for a good night’s sleep, and a piece that keeps the bedroom looking put together.
