Full details
The Birlea Aspen Ottoman Bed is an ideal choice for homeowners looking to maximize bedroom utility without compromising on style. It is perfectly suited for those needing substantial under-bed storage, offering a clean, modern aesthetic in a crisp white finish. While it provides excellent support through its sprung slatted base and high-capacity gas-lift mechanism, users must note that the ottoman functionality requires a mattress to be present to operate safely and correctly.

FAQs
Can I use any mattress with this bed?
You must use a standard UK King Size mattress, and it should not exceed 23cm in depth or 45kg in weight.
Why won't the gas lift work without a mattress?
The gas pistons have a high resistance (588N); the weight of the mattress is necessary to provide enough downward force to close the base.
How much weight can the bed support?
The frame is designed for a maximum load capacity of 350kg.
Is the bed difficult to assemble?
The bed requires assembly. It is recommended to have two people assist with the process to ensure the frame is aligned correctly.
How do I clean the bed frame?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe the surface clean. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges.
Troubleshooting
The ottoman base will not stay down or is too difficult to lift
Ensure a mattress is placed on the frame. The gas pistons are calibrated to require the weight of a mattress to operate smoothly.
The bed frame feels unstable
Check all bolts and fittings to ensure they are fully tightened and the bed is on a flat, even surface.
The base lid is misaligned
Re-check the alignment of the side rails during assembly and ensure the headboard and footboard are square to the frame.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Ensure the frame is assembled on a level floor. As this bed features gas pistons, it is highly recommended to follow the provided assembly instructions closely to ensure the tension is set correctly. The mattress must be placed on the frame before attempting to open the gas-lift mechanism, as the weight of the mattress is required to counter the force of the pistons.
Compatibility
- Mattress Size: Must be a standard UK King Size.
- Mattress Depth: Recommended maximum of 23cm to prevent strain on the frame or interference with the headboard.
- Weight: Total mattress weight should not exceed 45kg.
Care
To maintain the white finish, wipe down with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Periodically check that all bolts and screws are tight, as movement over time can loosen connections.
