FAQs
What size mattress do I need for this bed?
This Aspire Ottoman Storage Bed is designed for a standard single-sized mattress. The dimensions typically are 90cm x 190cm (3ft x 6ft3in).
Is assembly required, and how long does it take?
Yes, assembly is required. The bed comes flat-packed with all necessary hardware and instructions. Assembly time can vary, but typically takes 1-2 hours for one person, or less with two people.
How does the ottoman storage mechanism work?
The bed features an end-opening ottoman storage. To access, simply lift the bed base from the foot end. It uses gas lift pistons to assist in smoothly raising and lowering the mattress and base, revealing a spacious storage compartment underneath.
What kind of items can I store in the ottoman compartment?
The spacious compartment is ideal for storing a variety of items such as spare bedding, pillows, seasonal clothing, shoes, books, and even larger items like suitcases or storage boxes, helping to keep your bedroom tidy.
How do I clean the grey upholstered fabric?
For routine cleaning, vacuum the fabric with a soft brush attachment. For spills or marks, blot immediately with a clean, damp white cloth. A mild fabric cleaner suitable for upholstery can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I replace the gas lift pistons if they wear out?
Yes, gas lift pistons are typically replaceable. If you experience issues with the lifting mechanism over time, contact the manufacturer or retailer for replacement parts and installation guidance.
Troubleshooting
Ottoman mechanism is difficult to lift or close.
Ensure all gas lift pistons are installed correctly and securely. The mechanism is designed to work with the weight of a mattress, so it may feel stiff without one. Do not overload the storage compartment, as this can impede operation. Check for any obstructions.
Bed frame squeaks or creaks during use.
Thoroughly inspect all bed frame connections, particularly where the side rails meet the headboard and footboard. Tighten all bolts and screws securely. Ensure slats are properly seated and not rubbing against the frame or each other. Consider applying felt pads or wax to contact points if squeaking persists.
Sprung slats appear uneven or are popping out.
Verify that each slat is correctly inserted into its plastic holder on the side rails. Ensure the slat caps are fully engaged. If a slat is damaged, it may need to be replaced. Avoid excessive weight distribution in one area.
Storage compartment does not close flush.
Check if any items in the storage compartment are obstructing the base from fully lowering. Ensure the gas lift mechanism is properly aligned and not catching on any part of the frame. Re-check all assembly steps for the ottoman base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Unpack Components: Carefully unbox all parts and lay them out, cross-referencing with the provided assembly instructions. Identify all screws, bolts, and tools.
Assemble Frame: Begin by constructing the main bed frame, connecting the headboard, side rails, and footboard as per the manual. Ensure all connections are secure but do not fully tighten bolts until the frame is complete.
Install Ottoman Mechanism: Follow the specific instructions for attaching the gas lift pistons and hinges to the bed frame and storage base. This step is crucial for safe and easy operation.
Position Sprung Slats: Insert the sprung slats into their respective holders on the side rails. Ensure they are evenly spaced and securely fitted.
Final Tightening: Once all components are in place, fully tighten all bolts and screws.
Safety Check: Before placing a mattress, test the ottoman lift mechanism to ensure it operates smoothly and locks securely when closed.
Compatibility
Mattress: This bed is designed to accommodate a standard single-sized mattress. No specific mattress depth is required, but ensure it fits comfortably within the frame.
Room Layout: Consider the end-opening design; ensure you have sufficient clear space at the foot of the bed to lift the base and access the storage compartment comfortably.
Care
Fabric Cleaning: For general cleaning, lightly dust or vacuum the upholstered fabric using a soft brush attachment. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Use a mild fabric cleaner if necessary, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
Ottoman Mechanism: Periodically check the gas lift pistons and hinges for smooth operation and ensure all bolts remain tight. Lubricate hinges if necessary with a silicone-based spray.
Frame Maintenance: Occasionally inspect the bed frame for any loose bolts or connections and tighten as needed to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
Storage Area: Keep the internal storage area clean and dry. Avoid overloading to ensure the lift mechanism functions correctly.
