FAQs
What is included with the Sloomy Texas Coniston Ottoman Bed Set?
The set includes a reinforced ottoman base, a 26-inch strutted headboard, chrome gliders, pre-fitted metal connectors, and headboard bolts & fixings. A mattress is also included.
How much storage space does the ottoman bed offer?
The ottoman bed provides full under-bed storage, offering substantial space ideal for bedding, seasonal items, and more.
Is the mattress firm or soft?
The included mattress is described as having a medium comfort level, featuring an open-coil spring system and breathable knitted fabric.
Can I use my own mattress with this frame?
While the set includes a mattress, you may be able to use your own if it is of the same size and weight specifications. Ensure it does not exceed the weight limit for the gas struts.
How easy is it to lift the ottoman base?
The gas-lift mechanism is designed for effortless access. It requires a gentle downward push to initiate the lift, making storage accessible even for those with moderate strength.
Does the bed require assembly?
Yes, the bed frame requires assembly. It is recommended that two people assemble the bed for ease and safety.
What are the chrome gliders for?
The chrome gliders are fitted to the base of the bed. They protect your floors from scratches and also facilitate easier repositioning of the bed if needed.
Troubleshooting
Ottoman gas struts are stiff or difficult to lift
Ensure the mattress is correctly positioned and not pressing against the sides. Check that there are no obstructions around the mechanism. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Bed frame creaks or is noisy
Check that all bolts and fixings are securely tightened. Ensure the mattress is evenly distributed on the base. Minor creaking can sometimes occur with platform bases.
Storage access is not smooth
Verify the mattress weight is appropriate for the gas struts. Ensure the base is on a level surface. Clean any dust or debris from the lifting mechanism.
Mattress feels uneven or uncomfortable
Rotate the mattress as per care instructions. Allow the mattress a few days to 'settle' after initial setup. Ensure no items are stored directly underneath the mattress that could cause unevenness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This bed frame requires assembly. It typically involves attaching the sides and end to the base, then fitting the ottoman mechanism. The headboard attaches via bolts and fixings. We recommend two people for assembly. Ensure all fixings are tightened securely but avoid over-tightening.
Compatibility:
- The bed is designed to be used with the included mattress or a mattress of similar size and weight.
- Ensure the mattress does not exceed the recommended weight limit for the gas struts to function optimally.
Care:
- Frame: Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Mattress: Rotate the mattress regularly (every 3-6 months) for even wear. Spot clean any spills immediately with a mild detergent and water, ensuring the mattress is dried thoroughly. Do not use harsh chemicals or saturate the mattress.
- Mechanism: Periodically check that the gas struts are free from obstructions. Keep the mechanism clean.
