This platform bed features solid wood construction and a prominent headboard with cottage-style detailing that makes it a complement to a traditional or transitional design aesthetic. It stands on the slightly tapered front and back legs, with center legs for added support and stability. The system of slats eliminates the need for a box spring – simply top it with the standard mattress of your choice (sold separately). Make up this bed with a cozy quilt or puffy comforter and lots of throw pillows for an extra inviting look. Some assembly is required.
