platform bed

Low solid-base mattress support

A platform bed is a bed frame with a solid or slatted base that supports a mattress directly, eliminating the need for a box spring.

The low-profile design sits closer to the floor than traditional bed frames.

Platform beds often feature built-in storage drawers or a minimalist aesthetic: We chose a platform bed to make the small bedroom feel more open.
