FAQs

What is a platform-top divan base?

A platform-top divan base features a solid, flat surface instead of slats, providing a firm and even foundation for your mattress. This helps to prolong mattress life and prevent sagging.

Is assembly required for the Sloomy Sofia Gold Divan Base?

Yes, basic assembly is required. This involves joining the base sections (for larger sizes), attaching the headboard and footboard to the base, and inserting the chrome gliders.

Can I use any type of mattress with this bed base?

This base is compatible with most mattress types, but it is best suited for memory foam, hybrid, and pocket-sprung mattresses that benefit from solid support. Traditional sprung mattresses may not be ideal.

How is the headboard attached?

The headboard is strutted and attaches to the rear of the divan base using screws provided. For best stability, the headboard should be positioned against a wall.

What are the benefits of the chrome gliders?

The chrome gliders protect your floor from scratches and make it easier to move the bed base for cleaning or repositioning.

How do I clean the upholstery?

Dust regularly with a soft brush or vacuum upholstery attachment. For stains, use a clean, slightly damp cloth and blot gently. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What fabric options are available?

The bed is available in various fabric collections like Plush Velvet, Naples, Coniston, and Dumfries, in a wide selection of neutral and statement colors.

Troubleshooting

Bed base appears uneven or wobbly.

Ensure all fixings are securely tightened. Check that the chrome gliders are fully inserted and level. If you have a 2-piece base, confirm that the two halves are properly joined and secured with the base clips.

Headboard feels unstable or loose.

Verify that the headboard struts are correctly aligned and securely attached to the divan base using the provided screws. Ensure the headboard is positioned against a wall for maximum stability.

Drawers (if applicable) are difficult to open or close.

Check that the drawers are not overfilled. Ensure there are no obstructions on the metal runners. Clean the runners with a dry cloth if they appear dusty or dirty.

Fabric has marks or light stains.

Gently blot the affected area with a clean, slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild upholstery cleaner suitable for the fabric type, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The divan base is delivered ready for assembly. For Small Single and Single sizes, it comes as a 1-piece base. Larger sizes are provided in a 2-piece configuration that joins together. The headboard is strutted and will attach to the base. You will need to connect the headboard and footboard to the base using the provided fixings. The chrome gliders simply push into the base. Pre-fitted metal base clips secure the two halves of larger bases. Ensure you have adequate space for assembly.

Compatibility: This divan base is designed to work with most standard mattress types. However, due to its platform-top surface, it offers firm support and is ideal for mattresses that benefit from solid foundations, such as memory foam, hybrid, and pocket-sprung mattresses. Avoid using traditional sprung mattresses that may not be compatible with a solid base.

Care: To maintain the appearance of your divan base, regularly dust the fabric with a soft brush or vacuum using an upholstery attachment on a low setting. For spills or stains, use a clean, slightly damp cloth and blot the affected area gently. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric. Ensure the chrome gliders are kept clean to prevent any transfer of dirt to the floor.
