FAQs
What size mattress does this bed frame require?
This is a double size bed frame and requires a standard UK double mattress (135cm x 190cm).
How much storage space does the ottoman offer?
The ottoman base provides a large and deep storage area, suitable for storing bedding, clothing, shoes, and storage boxes. Exact internal dimensions can be found in the product specifications or assembly manual.
Does the bed come assembled?
No, the Chettle Ottoman Bed is supplied flat-packed and requires self-assembly. Instructions are included.
What is the maximum weight capacity for the mattress?
Refer to the product manual for the specific maximum weight limit. Ensure your mattress is within this limit to ensure proper function of the ottoman lift and frame stability.
Can I use any type of mattress with this bed?
Yes, it is compatible with most standard UK double mattresses. The sprung slats provide a supportive base.
How do I clean the grey velvet upholstery?
Vacuum regularly with an upholstery attachment. For minor spills, use a clean, damp cloth and blot gently. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What are the dimensions of the headboard?
Specific headboard dimensions can be found in the product's technical specifications or assembly guide, as these can vary slightly.
Troubleshooting
Ottoman base is difficult to lift or close.
Ensure there are no obstructions under the base or in the mechanism. Check that the mattress is evenly distributed and not exceeding the recommended weight limit. Verify all assembly steps related to the gas struts or lifting mechanism were followed correctly.
Uneven mattress support or squeaking from the base.
Check that all sprung slats are correctly seated in their holders. Ensure the frame itself is securely assembled and all bolts are tightened. If squeaking persists, a small amount of furniture polish or wax applied to the slat ends where they meet the frame might help.
Parts missing or damaged during delivery.
Contact the retailer immediately with your order details and a description or photo of the missing/damaged part. They will arrange for replacements to be sent.
Bed frame feels unstable.
Re-check all assembly points and ensure all screws, bolts, and fixings are tightened securely. Make sure the bed is on a level surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Chettle Ottoman Bed is supplied flat-packed and requires self-assembly. It is recommended to have two people for assembly due to the size and weight of components. Ensure you have a clear space and follow the included assembly instructions carefully, paying attention to the orientation of panels and the ottoman lift mechanism.
Compatibility: This bed frame is designed to accommodate standard UK double mattress sizes. The sprung slat system provides a supportive base; however, always check the maximum weight limit specified in the assembly manual. Ensure the mattress is not excessively heavy to avoid straining the ottoman mechanism.
Care: To maintain the appearance of the grey velvet upholstery, regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment is recommended. For spills or stains, use a clean, damp cloth and blot gently. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Periodically check that all assembly fixings remain tight.
