How do the chrome gliders benefit the user?

The chrome gliders protect your floors from scratches and marks, and they also make it easier to move or reposition the bed base when needed.

Can I use my existing mattress with this base?

Troubleshooting

Base feels unstable

Ensure all metal base clips are securely fastened and that the chrome gliders are properly attached and tightened.

Drawers are difficult to open or close

Check for any obstructions within the drawer runners. Ensure the base is on a level surface. If problems persist, check that the drawer runners are correctly aligned.

Headboard is wobbly

Verify that the headboard bolts and fixings are fully tightened. Ensure the headboard is correctly aligned with the base before securing.

Uneven mattress support

Confirm that the mattress is correctly placed on the platform-top base and that the base itself is level. The platform-top is designed for even support, so issues may stem from mattress wear or an uneven base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The divan base requires assembly. It typically involves connecting the base sections (if applicable), attaching the headboard, and fitting the chrome gliders. All necessary bolts and fixings are included. For larger sizes, a two-person assembly is recommended. Ensure all metal base clips are securely fastened.

Compatibility: This divan base is designed to work with most standard mattress types. The platform-top surface is suitable for all mattress constructions, including memory foam, hybrid, and traditional sprung mattresses. The base comes with a 26-inch strutted headboard, but you may be able to attach a different compatible headboard if desired, using the provided fixings.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your divan base, regular dusting is recommended. For fabric upholstery, use a soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric. The chrome gliders can be wiped with a damp cloth.
