Ithaca Natural 3 Pc Queen Panel Bed

A panel bed, like this contemporary model, typically consists of a headboard, footboard, and side rails. Unlike platform beds, panel beds are designed with a specific slat system that requires the use of a foundation or box spring to properly support your mattress. Using a foundation not only provides the necessary structural integrity to prevent your mattress from sagging but also helps achieve a comfortable, elevated sleep height.

Maintaining the beauty of this bed is straightforward. Based on our material expertise, we recommend dusting the oak veneer surfaces regularly with a soft, dry cloth. To preserve the natural finish, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes. For minor spots, a slightly damp cloth followed immediately by a dry one will keep the wood looking vibrant. The minimalistic, horizontal paneling is designed not just for style, but to be easily accessible for routine cleaning.

The Ithaca natural finish highlights the light, organic grain of the oak veneers, making it an exceptional choice for bright, airy spaces. This "natural" aesthetic is a hallmark of contemporary design and works beautifully in coastal or transitional homes where a sense of "staycation luxury" is desired. Practically, lighter wood finishes are also excellent for high-traffic homes as they tend to show dust and minor wear much less than darker, high-gloss alternatives.

This bed is constructed with high-quality oak veneers and a robust panel frame designed for long-term stability. The straight leg style and framed headboard motif provide a secure foundation that easily accommodates standard queen mattresses and foundations. For those concerned about weight capacity and durability, oak is an industry-preferred material known for its resilience and ability to maintain its shape over years of use.

This queen bed has a total footprint of 64"w x 88.25"d x 60"h. When planning your room layout, we recommend leaving at least 24 to 30 inches of walking space on either side and at the foot of the bed. This ensures the bed remains the focal point without making a standard-sized bedroom feel cramped, while the 60-inch headboard height provides a sophisticated vertical presence without blocking most window sills.

Most of our panel beds are compatible with adjustable bases, provided the base is designed to fit within a standard frame. This bed’s straight side rails and open center support area are generally well-suited for a drop-in adjustable base. However, we recommend measuring your specific adjustable base to ensure it clears the interior dimensions of the 64"w x 88.25"d frame before setup.
