Armitage Dark Brown 3 Pc Queen Upholstered Bed

Yes, this sleigh bed is designed to be used with both a mattress and a foundation (or box spring), which are sold separately. Using a high-quality queen foundation ensures your mattress receives the flat, sturdy support necessary to prevent sagging and maintain the validity of your mattress warranty.

To preserve the beige fabric and button-tufted detailing, our care experts recommend regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and allergens. For minor stains, you should lightly apply a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they can degrade the fabric fibers and the dark brown finish of the pecan veneers.

This bed is crafted with pecan veneers, a material known in high-end furniture for its beautiful grain patterns and its ability to resist warping or cracking over time. The outwardly canted bun feet are not merely a decorative nod to 18th-century architecture; they provide a wide, low-center-of-gravity base that enhances the overall stability and weight distribution of the frame.

Upholstered beds provide a soft, comfortable backrest for reading, but they can be a magnet for pet hair. Because this headboard features a tightly woven fabric, hair tends to stay on the surface rather than becoming embedded in the weave. For pet owners, we suggest keeping a lint roller handy or performing a quick weekly vacuum to maintain the pristine look of the beige upholstery.

When planning your layout, it is important to note that the traditional sleigh design adds significant length compared to a standard frame. While the sleeping surface is queen-sized, the total length is 97.75 inches—nearly 18 inches longer than a standard mattress. For smaller bedrooms or city apartments, we recommend ensuring you have at least 10 to 11 feet of total room length to allow for a clear walking path at the foot of the bed.

With a height of 71 inches, the headboard is an authoritative focal point that requires vertical breathing room. It is best suited for rooms with standard 8-foot or 10-foot ceilings. If you are furnishing a basement suite or a space with lower, non-standard ceilings, we recommend measuring your wall height carefully to ensure the grand scale of the headboard complements rather than overwhelms the space.
