Upholstered Bed Frame, 4FT6 Double, 204.5 x 139.5 x 105 cm, Natural

This upholstered bed frame takes the hard edges out of a bedroom, with a softly upholstered surround, a supportive slatted base and a low profile that keeps the room feeling open. The Natural finish keeps the grain readable and pairs easily with both pale Scandinavian and darker traditional schemes.

The MDF boards are thick, edged and finished on both faces, which keeps the unit rigid under load and free from the bowing cheaper panels show. Edges are banded rather than raw, which protects the corners on the moves and knocks that furniture actually gets.

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: 204.5 x 139.5 x 105 cm (L x W x H)
• Weight: 66.7 kg
• Materials: MDF
• Colour: Natural

Set it up in a main bedroom, a guest room or a teenager’s room — the frame suits a range of mattress sizes and sits well against either a feature wall or a row of wardrobes. Keep it away from radiators so the upholstery does not dry out and lose its loft.

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth and use a mild wood cleaner only when needed, drying as you go so moisture never sits on the edges.

Practical, comfortable and quietly good-looking — the sort of frame you stop noticing because everything just works.
