1. Timber Sourcing
We exclusively use 100% solid timber sourced from FSC® or PEFC-certified sustainably managed plantations. We do not use MDF, plywoodor any engineered wood products.

2. Frame & Legs
All visible components are made from solid hardwood, such as Rose Gum or Tasmanian Oak. These timbers are durable, stable, and have natural beauty.

3. Slats & Centre Beam
The internal support structure is constructed from solid untreated beech, ensuring strength and longevity without the use of chemical treatments.

4. Hardware & Joinery
All connecting hardware is sourced from Häfele Germany, known for precision and durability. We have trusted these fittings for over 30 years.

5. Finish
Our bed bases are finished with Biohouse Oil, a non-toxic, eco-friendly, and low-VOC wood finish that is safe for humans, animals, and plants.

A Note on Solid Timber

As each piece is made from 100% solid, sustainably sourced timber, natural variations such as knots and grain patterns are to be expected. These do not affect the product’s strength or durability. We do our best to ensure a consistent appearance, though perfect colour matching is not guaranteed, as avoiding natural variation would lead to excessive material waste.

Please note: Many products marketed as "solid timber" often combine some solid wood with engineered or wild-harvested native timbers, such as veneers or plywood. These are not used in our products.


Lifetime Guarantee

  • Covered for the life of the original purchaser against any break or squeak.
  • Any issues, we will either attempt repairing it or simply sending a replacement base or part at no charge

120-Night Returns

With so few returns and so many happy sleepers, we’re confident to now offer a full refund minus a return admin fee of just $95 on any bed base or mattress within 120 nights (toppers and side tables included only when purchased with a mattress or base – with no extra return cost). We’ll simply pick up your order for return, or donate it to charity!

Simple conditions apply: Please keep the boxes to avoid any potential extra costs (could be stored flat in the garage). If you are outside our free delivery area and we charged you an extra fee, this fee is non-refundable. Maximum of 1 mattress return and 1 bed base return per household. 

Care

No special care is needed: we use a water-resistant, natural vegetable oil finish designed to protect the timber. Can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if required.

New FOUR-IN-ONE "Mattress Gap" Settings!

The total height of the headboard is always 35cm and we now offer FOUR-IN-ONE adjustable “mattress gap” settings with a unique ‘rotatable double-bracket’ design. The “mattress gap” is the height between the top of the bed base and the bottom of the headboard, which looks and works best when this is the same height as your mattress, or slightly lower (i.e. your mattress ‘overlaps’ on the headboard by around 0-5cm).

Basically, you don’t want pillows slipping through this gap, nor do you want too much of the headboard hidden!

Mattress Gap Settings
You’ll notice 2 brackets on the back of your headboard. The entire headboard is also rotatable to give four smart options:

  • 15cm (slim mattresses up to 21cm high). With headboard brackets closer to the roof, use the top bracket.
  • 22cm (standard mattresses 22-27cm high). With headboard brackets closer to the floor, use the top bracket.
  • 28cm (tall mattresses 28-33cm high). With headboard brackets closer to the roof, use the bottom bracket.
  • 34cm (very tall mattresses over 34cm high). With headboard brackets closer to the floor, use the bottom bracket. Get in touch if your mattress is over 40cm high.
