Aspire Side Opening Ottoman Storage - Grey

This bed is designed for use with all standard UK size mattresses. Please ensure you purchase a mattress that matches the bed frame size you have (e.g., a UK King size mattress for a King size bed frame).

The side-opening mechanism is configured during the initial assembly process. While it's technically possible to change it, it would require significant disassembly and reassembly, which is not recommended. It's best to decide on the opening side before or during the initial build.

For routine cleaning, vacuum gently with an upholstery attachment. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning or stubborn stains, use a fabric cleaner suitable for linen, testing on an inconspicuous area first, or consider professional upholstery cleaning.

The storage area has a black fabric cloth base that protects items from direct contact with the floor and helps keep dust out. However, it is not waterproof, so avoid storing damp items or placing the bed in an area prone to moisture.

Info needed: [Specific weight capacity for the bed and storage is not provided in the product description. Generally, ottoman beds are designed to support standard mattress weights and reasonable storage loads. Avoid overloading to ensure longevity of the gas lift mechanism and frame.]

Info needed: [The product description states 'Supplied flat pack for self-assembly'. Typically, basic tools like an Allen key are included, but you may need a screwdriver or a wrench. It's advisable to check the package contents upon arrival.]

Ensure the bed frame is fully assembled and all bolts are tight. The gas lift mechanism is designed to operate with the weight of a mattress; try placing your mattress on the bed before judging its performance. Check for any obstructions in the mechanism or along the side where it opens. If the issue persists, review the assembly manual for correct gas lift installation or contact customer support.

Squeaks often result from loose connections. Systematically check and tighten all bolts and screws throughout the bed frame, paying close attention to the joints where the side rails connect to the headboard and footboard, and where the slats attach. Ensure the mattress is seated properly and not rubbing against the frame.

Avoid placing excessively heavy or sharp objects directly on the fabric base. If sagging occurs, redistribute weight evenly. For small tears, a strong fabric repair tape can be used. For larger damage, contact customer support for advice on replacement parts or professional repair options.

Carefully review the provided assembly manual, paying close attention to diagrams and step-by-step instructions. Ensure all parts are correctly oriented. Sometimes having a second person helps, especially for aligning larger sections. If a specific step is unclear, refer to the manufacturer's online resources or customer support.
