Carshalton Beige King Upholstered Bed

Yes, a foundation is required for this upholstered bed. While it provides a sturdy and stylish frame, the internal support system is designed to be used with a standard foundation or box spring to ensure your mattress remains level and properly supported. Both the mattress and foundation are sold separately to allow you to choose the comfort level that best suits your needs.

Customer assembly is required, and the bed includes comprehensive instructions to guide you through the process. Given the scale of a king-sized frame, we recommend having two people available for the setup. This ensures the components are aligned correctly and the tapered legs are securely fastened, which is essential for the long-term structural integrity and stability of the bed.

One of the practical advantages of this bed is that it requires customer assembly. Because the components—such as the upholstered headboard, rails, and tapered legs—are packaged separately, they are much easier to navigate through narrow hallways, doorways, and stairwells than a pre-assembled king frame. Once in your bedroom, the 87.5"L x 80.5"W footprint provides a grand presence while the 49.5" height remains manageable for rooms with standard ceiling heights.

This bed features a durable linen-style fabric. For routine maintenance, we recommend regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and household allergens before they settle into the weave. For accidental spills, spot-clean immediately with a soft, damp cloth. Based on our material expertise, we suggest avoiding saturated cleaning or harsh chemicals, which can compromise the "beige" finish and the fabric’s natural-looking texture.

The linen-style fabric used on this bed is specifically selected for its breathability, making it an excellent option for warmer or more humid environments. Unlike heavy velvets or synthetic leathers that can trap heat, this breathable weave helps maintain a comfortable temperature. To ensure the longevity of the upholstery in coastal areas, we recommend maintaining a well-ventilated room to prevent the fibers from absorbing excess ambient moisture.

This bed is designed with a contemporary aesthetic that balances softness and structure. The upholstered headboard provides a comfortable surface for sitting up in bed, while the hand-applied nailhead trim adds a sophisticated, tailored detail. The neutral beige finish is part of a versatile color family that pairs seamlessly with light woods or white furniture, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of interior styles.
