FAQs

What size mattress does this bed require?

This GFW Ottoman Bed is designed for a Small Double (4ft / 120cm) mattress.

Can I assemble this bed by myself?

While it is possible for one person to assemble, having two people will make the assembly process, particularly with lifting heavier parts and installing the gas struts, significantly easier and safer.

How much storage space is available under the bed?

The ottoman base offers generous storage space, filling the entire footprint beneath the mattress. Exact cubic capacity details are not provided, but it's ample for numerous items like bedding, towels, or seasonal clothing.

Is the side lift adjustable after assembly?

No, the side from which the bed lifts is determined during the initial assembly process by the placement of specific hardware. It cannot be easily changed without significant reassembly.

How do I clean the faux leather upholstery?

Wipe the faux leather with a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. For spills, use a mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth and dry immediately with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Does the bed come with a mattress?

No, the GFW Side Lift Ottoman Bed frame is sold separately. A small double mattress must be purchased separately.

Troubleshooting

Ottoman base is difficult to lift or won't stay up.

Ensure a small double mattress is placed on the base; the gas struts are designed to work with the weight of the mattress. Check that the gas struts are installed correctly and are not obstructed.

Ottoman base doesn't close fully or evenly.

Verify that nothing in the storage compartment is preventing the base from closing. Check that all frame components are square and evenly assembled, and that the gas struts are properly aligned.

Bed frame makes squeaking noises.

Check all connection points (bolts, screws) and tighten them as necessary. Ensure the slatted base is correctly seated and that no parts are rubbing. Applying felt pads to contact points can sometimes help.

Difficulty with initial assembly steps.

Carefully review the instruction manual, paying close attention to diagrams and part numbers. Lay out all components and hardware before starting. If stuck, consider seeking assistance from another person.

Faux leather material appears wrinkled or creased.

Minor creases from packaging are normal and often relax over time with use. Gently rubbing the area with a warm (not hot), damp cloth can sometimes help smooth out minor wrinkles. Avoid direct heat sources like hair dryers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Ample Hidden Storage: Keeps your bedroom tidy and organized by providing a large, discreet storage solution.
Easy Access Storage: The gas hydraulic lift system ensures smooth and easy lifting of the mattress for storage access.
Stylish Design: Modern faux leather finish and stitched headboard add a touch of elegance to any bedroom.
Flexible Setup: Option to choose the side of the lift during assembly to best suit your room's configuration.
Durable Materials: Constructed with high-quality faux leather for longevity and easy maintenance.

Cons

Assembly Required: The bed frame requires self-assembly, which may take time and effort.
Faux Leather: While durable, faux leather may not appeal to everyone compared to natural fabrics.
Mattress Not Included: Requires a separate purchase of a small double mattress.
Specific Size: Small Double size might limit mattress options compared to standard double beds.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

Unpack Components: Carefully unbox all parts and ensure all hardware is present. Refer to the included instruction manual for a full inventory list. Keep small parts organized to prevent loss.
Frame Assembly: Follow the step-by-step instructions provided to assemble the main bed frame. This typically involves attaching side rails, footboard, and headboard. Ensure all bolts and screws are securely fastened but do not overtighten until instructed.
Choose Lift Side: Pay close attention to the colour-coded holes and instructions for installing the ottoman base hinges. This is where you decide if the bed will lift from the left or right side. Once assembled, this choice is generally permanent without significant reassembly.
Install Gas Hydraulics: Carefully install the gas hydraulic arms according to the manual. Ensure they are correctly oriented and securely attached to both the base and the frame. Important: Gas struts can be stiff initially; the weight of a mattress is often required to allow them to function smoothly. Do not force them down without the mattress in place.
Place Mattress: Once the frame and lift mechanism are fully assembled, place your small double mattress onto the slatted base. The mattress weight is crucial for the proper function of the gas lift.

Compatibility

Mattress Size: This bed is designed for a Small Double (4ft / 120cm) mattress. Ensure your mattress matches these dimensions for a proper fit and optimal gas lift performance.
Room Size: Its compact small double footprint makes it ideal for smaller bedrooms, guest rooms, or apartments where maximizing floor space is key.
Flooring: Suitable for all flooring types, though rubber protectors on feet are recommended for hard floors to prevent scratching.

Care

Faux Leather Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the faux leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth, drying immediately with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the material.
Dusting: Regularly dust the frame and headboard with a soft, dry cloth to prevent build-up.
Storage Area: Periodically vacuum or wipe the lined storage area to keep it free of dust and debris.
Gas Hydraulics: Do not oil or lubricate the gas struts. If they become stiff, ensure no objects are obstructing the mechanism and that the mattress is properly positioned. If issues persist, refer to troubleshooting or contact customer support.
