Underbed Storage

You can add a storage trundle or a dresser under this bed. For queen size, you can add a storage trundle on one side and underbed dresser on the other side of the bed.

If you wish to add a matching night table, you can choose a shorter underbed dresser so all drawers can function nicely.

Safety

Our finishes include volatile organic compounds (or VOC's) in their liquid form. These ingredients are used to allow finishes to be applied by spraying. Once a finish is applied the ingredients evaporate during the drying and curing process releasing the VOC's. Finished wood surfaces do not emit VOC's once they are cured.

Shaker design solid wood platform bed is perfect for any age. Kids, teens, or adults all can use this bed without a problem. This is because it can hold 400 lbs of weight. To achieve this weight rating, the mattress rail on this bed is a solid and very thick piece of wood without finger joints, just a long solid piece of timber.

Headboard joints are traditional and robust mortise and tenon.

Assembly

The Assembly of Shaker Design platform bed is fairly simple. No need to assemble the shakers. You only need to connect mattress rails to head/foot boards, the shakers, and screw in the slats.

There are a total of 8 metal connector bolts and 16 barrel nuts to secure mattress rails to both head and footboard.
