Product Information

Full details

The Birlea Phoenix Ottoman Storage Bed Frame is designed for those seeking a stylish and practical bedroom solution, offering significant under-bed storage with a sophisticated finish. Its key benefit is the integrated storage accessible via a gas-lift mechanism. A caveat to consider is that the gas pistons require a mattress to be present on the bed to function correctly. This bed frame is constructed from solid rubberwood (or MDF with Melamine/veneer depending on finish) and features a sprung slatted base for enhanced comfort and mattress support.

FAQs

What type of mattress should I use with the Phoenix Ottoman bed?

You should use a UK standard size mattress with a maximum weight of 45 kg and a maximum height of 23 cm. The mattress needs to be on the bed for the pistons to operate correctly.

How does the storage access work?

The bed frame features a gas piston mechanism (588 N strength) that allows the mattress and sprung slatted base to be lifted smoothly, revealing the storage space underneath.

What is the maximum weight the bed frame can support?

The maximum weight load for the Phoenix Ottoman frame is 350 kg.

What are the different colour options available?

The Phoenix Ottoman bed is available in Pearl Grey, Stone Grey, Oak, and White finishes.

Is assembly included?

Assembly is required, but typically not included. We recommend two people for assembly and refer to the provided instruction manual.

What material is the bed frame made from?

The frame is constructed from solid rubberwood. The oak option has MDF veneered side rails, and the white option features MDF Melamine side rails.

Can I use a mattress heavier than 45 kg?

While the frame supports a total weight of 350 kg, the ottoman lift mechanism is designed to work with mattresses up to 45 kg. Exceeding this may make the lift difficult or cause strain on the mechanism.

Troubleshooting

Ottoman lift mechanism is stiff or won't stay up.

Ensure the mattress is in place and correctly centered. Check that the gas pistons are securely attached and not obstructed. Verify the mattress weight is within the 45 kg limit.

Bed frame creaks during movement.

Check that all screws and bolts are fully tightened. Ensure the mattress is not shifting excessively on the slats. Evenly distribute the weight on the mattress.

Slats are sagging or broken.

Inspect the slats for damage. If any are broken, they may need replacement. Ensure slats are correctly seated in their holders. Check mattress weight is within limits.

Difficulty in assembling the frame.

Refer to the assembly manual and ensure all parts are correctly identified and oriented. It is advisable to have a second person assist with assembly, especially for larger components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly is required. It is recommended to have two people for easier construction. Ensure all parts are present before starting and follow the provided instruction manual carefully. The ottoman mechanism requires specific attachment points to function correctly.

Compatibility: This bed frame is designed exclusively for UK standard size mattresses. The recommended maximum mattress height is 23cm, and the mattress should not exceed 45 kg in weight for the ottoman lift mechanism to function properly. Ensure the mattress is placed centrally on the frame before attempting to lift.

Care: To clean the frame, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For the gas pistons, ensure they are free from obstruction. Periodically check that all screws and fittings are tightened.
