FAQs

What is the maximum weight limit for this bed frame?

The maximum weight load for the Phoenix Ottoman frame is 350 kg.

What size mattress is required?

The bed is only suitable for a UK standard size mattress. The recommended maximum mattress height is 23cm, and the maximum mattress weight is 45kg.

Do I need to assemble the bed frame?

Yes, the bed frame requires assembly. It is recommended to have two people for the assembly process.

How does the storage work?

The bed features an ottoman-style opening base, lifted by gas pistons. This reveals a large storage compartment underneath the mattress when the base is raised.

Why do the pistons not work without a mattress?

The gas piston mechanism is designed to work with the weight of the mattress. Without the mattress, there is no counter-pressure, preventing the pistons from functioning correctly.

What material are the side rails made of for the white version?

The white option features MDF Melamine side rails.

How do I clean the white finish?

Clean the frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

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

Ensure the mattress is correctly positioned on the frame and is within the weight limit (max 45 kg). Check that the gas pistons are securely attached and not obstructed. The mattress must be on the bed for the pistons to function.

Bed frame creaks or squeaks.

Check that all bolts and screws are fully tightened. Ensure the mattress is not rubbing against the side rails and that the sprung slats are properly seated.

Difficulty assembling the frame.

Refer to the assembly manual and ensure you are using the correct parts for each step. It is recommended to have two people for assembly. Check online resources or contact customer support if specific steps are unclear.

Gas pistons feel stiff.

This is normal for new pistons. They will become smoother with regular use. Ensure the mattress is placed correctly to allow the pistons to engage and disengage properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Assembly is required. It is recommended to have two people for safe and efficient assembly. Ensure all parts are present before starting and follow the provided instruction manual carefully. Pay close attention to the orientation of the side rails and the attachment of the gas pistons.

Compatibility: This bed frame is designed for UK standard mattresses. The maximum recommended mattress weight is 45 kg, and the maximum mattress height is 23 cm. Ensure your chosen mattress adheres to these specifications for optimal performance and to prevent issues with the ottoman mechanism.

Care: To maintain the pristine white finish, clean the frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the Melamine surface. Periodically check that all bolts and fittings are secure. Ensure the gas pistons are not obstructed and operate smoothly.
