Full details

The Phoenix Ottoman Storage Bed by Happy Beds is an ideal solution for homeowners and renters looking to maximize bedroom functionality without sacrificing style. This frame features an integrated gas-lift ottoman mechanism that reveals a spacious 27cm deep storage area, perfect for tucking away seasonal linens, clothing, and bulky bedroom essentials. While it offers unparalleled organization, potential owners should note that the bed arrives flat-packed and requires a two-person assembly to ensure the hydraulic mechanism is installed correctly and safely.

FAQs

Can I assemble this bed by myself?

While technically possible for some, we strongly recommend two people for assembly due to the weight of the ottoman frame and the need to align the gas-lift pistons correctly.

How deep is the storage area?

The storage compartment offers a depth of 27cm.

What type of mattress is best for this bed?

The bed is compatible with most standard 4ft6 double mattresses, including pocket sprung, memory foam, and hybrid models.

Is the floor of the bed storage area solid?

Yes, the bed includes a base panel that allows you to store items directly off the floor.

Does the bed come with a mattress?

No, the bed frame is sold separately from the mattress.

How should I clean the frame?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water and mild soap if necessary. Always wipe dry immediately.

Troubleshooting

The bed frame is difficult to lift.

Ensure the mattress is positioned correctly on the base. If the mattress is too light, the pistons may be too strong; if too heavy, they may struggle to rise.

The bed makes squeaking noises.

Check all bolts and fasteners and tighten them. Ensure the sprung slats are fully seated in their plastic caps.

The ottoman won't stay in the open position.

Verify that both gas pistons are attached correctly. If one piston is failing, the lid will not support its own weight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maximizes bedroom storage space in small floor plans
  • Easy-access gas-lift design simplifies daily use
  • Sprung slats improve mattress comfort and air circulation
  • Stylish aesthetic that blends easily with existing decor
  • Robust construction for long-term reliability

Cons

  • Requires manual assembly with tools
  • Heavy base necessitates two people for safe building
  • Storage access is only possible when the bed is empty of heavy items on top
  • Flat-pack packaging produces significant waste material

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This bed arrives flat-packed in multiple boxes. Before starting, clear a large floor space to organize components. Ensure you have a standard screwdriver and a rubber mallet on hand.

  1. Assembly: Follow the included manual strictly, particularly when attaching the gas-lift pistons, as these require specific tension for safety.
  2. Compatibility: Designed for standard 4ft6 double mattresses. Verify your mattress weight matches the recommended specifications, as an overly heavy or too-light mattress can impact the lift mechanism.
  3. Care: Wipe the grey wooden finish with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive chemicals. Regularly tighten bolts after the first month of use to ensure the frame remains silent and stable.
