Daybed with Trundle, 3FT Single, 204 x 107 x 88 cm, Beige

A daybed with trundle that looks considered rather than showy, with a wide padded headboard, a sturdy slatted base and clean lines that suit both rented flats and family homes. The Beige cover is neutral enough to sit with most schemes, yet rich enough to lift a plain room.

The Linen, MDF and Metal cover feels warm to the touch and is tailored tight over the frame, so it keeps a crisp shape rather than looking loose. 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: 204 x 107 x 88 cm (L x W x H)
• Weight: 60.8 kg
• Materials: Linen, MDF and Metal
• 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. Leave a walkway in front so people can get in and out without shuffling sideways.

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.
