Preston Heights Gray 3 Pc King Upholstered Bed

Yes, to ensure proper support and maintain your mattress warranty, a foundation is required with this king bed. While standard box springs are an option, we recommend a solid mattress foundation to provide a sturdier, flatter base. This prevents the mattress from warping or sagging, which is essential for preserving the lifespan of high-quality king-sized mattresses.

The sloped shelter headboard is specifically engineered for both aesthetic "nesting" and ergonomic comfort. The inward-curving "shelter" sides create a private, cozy atmosphere, while the sloped angle provides a more comfortable surface for leaning back to read or watch television compared to a standard vertical headboard.

Upholstered beds are a popular choice in various climates because modern synthetic fabric blends are designed for better breathability than older textiles. The polyester-based heathered fabric used in the Preston Heights collection is naturally more resistant to moisture-related concerns like mold or mildew than 100% natural fibers. In high-humidity areas, we recommend maintaining consistent indoor airflow and routine vacuuming to prevent dust from trapping ambient moisture against the frame.

The plinth base offers superior structural stability by distributing the weight of the bed and mattress across a wider surface area compared to traditional four-leg frames. This design also prevents the accumulation of dust under the bed and provides a clean, contemporary silhouette that hides the internal support structures for a more polished bedroom aesthetic.

The tightly woven heathered fabric on this bed is an excellent choice for pet owners. The multi-tonal gray weave is particularly effective at disguising pet hair and minor surface wear. Because the fabric is a durable, high-performance blend, it is more resistant to the snagging and pilling often associated with looser weaves. Our experts recommend regular vacuuming with an upholstery tool to keep the fabric free of dander and allergens.

While a king bed has a significant footprint, this model's design is optimized for space. The plinth-style base gives the bed a "floating" or grounded appearance that reduces visual bulk, helping a smaller room feel more open. With a total width of 82.5 inches, it fits comfortably in standard 12'x12' bedrooms while still providing the luxury of a king-sized sleep surface. We recommend measuring entryways and corridors to ensure the 90-inch depth can clear tight corners during delivery.

Based on our material care expertise, we recommend regular light maintenance to keep the upholstery looking new. For dust and hair, vacuuming with a soft brush attachment is the most effective method. For accidental spills or spot cleaning, lightly apply a mixture of mild soap and warm water with a soft rag, ensuring you blot rather than rub to protect the fabric's texture.
