Bowerton Dark Gray Full Upholstered Bed

A full bed is an excellent solution for smaller living spaces, providing ample sleeping room while maintaining a compact footprint. This frame measures 81.5" L x 58.5" W, making it ideal for bedrooms that are approximately 10' x 10'. The upholstered headboard also adds a layer of multi-functional comfort, serving as a padded backrest for reading or working in bed, which is a significant benefit in smaller, multi-purpose rooms.

For a linen-style fabric like the one featured on this bed, our care experts recommend regular vacuuming with a soft brush attachment to remove surface dust and prevent fibers from pilling. For accidental spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, soft cloth using a mixture of warm water and a mild detergent. This proactive maintenance helps the dark gray upholstery retain its rich color and prevents debris from settling into the tufted details.

An upholstered bed offers a softer, modern traditional aesthetic that provides greater physical comfort. The button-tufted headboard is padded, offering a much more comfortable surface for sitting up than hard wood or metal. Additionally, fabric-wrapped frames eliminate sharp corners, making them a "quieter" and safer option for smaller spaces where you might occasionally bump into the furniture.

Yes, this bed is specifically designed for use with a foundation and mattress, which are sold separately. A foundation provides a flat, rigid surface that is essential for distributing weight evenly across the upholstered frame. Based on our expertise, using a proper foundation is the best way to prevent your mattress from sagging and warping, ensuring both the bed and the mattress last for years.

This bed requires customer assembly, which is a major advantage for shoppers in urban areas as it can be moved more easily through narrow hallways or up staircases in its original packaging. The assembly process involves attaching the tapered legs and securing the side rails to the headboard and footboard. We recommend a two-person setup to ensure the frame is perfectly aligned and the chrome nailhead trim is handled with care.

Upholstered beds are a viable option for those with allergies, provided they are maintained regularly. The linen-style fabric used here has a tighter weave than plush materials like velvet, making it less likely to harbor deep-seated dust. To manage allergens, we recommend vacuuming the headboard and frame weekly to remove dust mites and pet dander, maintaining a clean and healthy sleeping environment.
