FAQs
What kind of mattress can I use with this divan base?
This divan base is compatible with all standard mattress types, including memory foam, pocket sprung, and open coil, as long as the mattress size matches the divan base size.
Does this bed come with storage drawers?
No, this specific Manhattan Divan Bed Base model is designed without integrated storage drawers for a streamlined and minimalist look.
How do I clean the Sloomy Cream fabric?
Regularly vacuum with a soft brush attachment. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For stains, use a mild upholstery cleaner on a tested, inconspicuous area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Is assembly difficult?
Assembly is straightforward and typically involves joining the divan base halves and attaching the headboard. Basic tools are usually provided or required. Step-by-step instructions are included.
Can I use a different headboard with this base?
While designed to perfectly match the included Manhattan Struts Headboard, most divan bases have standard fittings that allow for other strutted headboards to be attached, provided they align with the pre-drilled holes.
What is the height of the headboard?
The headboard for this model is a 26-inch struts headboard, meaning the main upholstered panel is 26 inches high, with additional height from the struts that elevate it from the base.
Troubleshooting
Divan base halves don't join securely.
Ensure the linking bars or clips are correctly inserted and tightened. Sometimes, the base halves need to be nudged together tightly before securing.
Headboard is wobbly after assembly.
Check all bolts attaching the struts to the headboard and the headboard to the base. Ensure they are fully tightened. If issues persist, disassemble and reassemble, checking alignment.
Fabric appears creased from packaging.
Light creases are common. They often relax and disappear within a few days of unpacking. Gently steaming with a handheld garment steamer from a safe distance can help, but avoid direct contact or saturating the fabric.
Unexpected noise (creaking) from the base.
Ensure the linking bars between the divan halves are tightly secured. Also, check that the headboard bolts are firm. Sometimes, the mattress itself can be the source of noise, so test the base without the mattress if possible.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Premium Craftsmanship: Handcrafted in the UK with high-quality materials and attention to detail.
- Sophisticated Design: Elevates bedroom decor with its elegant Manhattan style and upholstered finish.
- Exceptional Support: Solid divan base provides a firm and stable foundation for a comfortable sleep.
- Durable Construction: Built to last, offering long-term reliability and value.
- Versatile Style: Adapts well to various interior design themes, from classic to contemporary.
Cons
- No Integrated Storage: This model does not include drawers, which may be a limitation for those needing under-bed storage.
- Fixed Headboard Height: The 26-inch struts headboard offers limited adjustability once installed.
- Color Specificity: The 'Sloomy Cream' color, while elegant, may require careful coordination with existing decor and potentially more frequent spot cleaning than darker shades.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack Components: Carefully unpack all components of the divan base and headboard from their packaging. Lay them out to check against the packing list.
- Assemble Divan Base: The divan base typically comes in two halves (for larger sizes). Place them side-by-side where you intend the bed to be. Secure them together using the provided linking bars or clips, usually located underneath the base.
- Attach Headboard Struts: Bolt the included struts to the back of the headboard. Ensure they are tightened securely.
- Mount Headboard: Align the headboard struts with the pre-drilled holes on the divan base. Insert the bolts and tighten them firmly, ensuring the headboard is stable and does not wobble.
- Place Mattress: Once the base and headboard are secure, carefully place your mattress on top of the divan base.
Compatibility
- Mattress: This divan base is compatible with all standard mattress types (e.g., memory foam, pocket sprung, open coil) of the corresponding size. Ensure your mattress matches the size of the divan base (e.g., King size mattress for a King size divan).
- Room Decor: The Sloomy Cream color and classic Manhattan design are highly versatile, complementing both traditional and modern bedroom interiors. Consider coordinating with neutral or complementary color palettes.
Care
- Regular Cleaning: Vacuum the upholstered fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris. This helps maintain the fabric's appearance and prevents dirt buildup.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills or stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild fabric cleaner designed for upholstery, testing it on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fabric fading over time. Position the bed to minimize direct exposure or use blinds/curtains.
- Rotate Mattress: Regularly rotate your mattress according to the mattress manufacturer's guidelines to ensure even wear and extend its lifespan, which in turn helps preserve the divan base's integrity.
