Description
Super King Bed with a Dual-Mode Gas Lift and Storage
A bed this size takes up most of a room, so what sits under it matters. The Mara Super King Velvet Gas Lift Bed Frame in Taupe Brown turns that space into 31cm of clear storage depth across the entire footprint, opened by a gas lift that works two ways: flat, when you want the whole compartment accessible, or tilted, when you're reaching in for one thing. Changing the sheets is the job where you notice it most, since a flat lift keeps the platform out of your way and the mattress at working height rather than on the floor.
Velvet, a Eucalyptus Frame, and LVL Slats
Taupe is the practical end of upholstered bedding — a mid-dark velvet doesn't record the marks a cream one does, and the pile reads deeper in shadow, so the curved headboard has visible shape rather than sitting flat. It's padded enough to lean against for an hour with a book. The frame beneath is eucalyptus and engineered wood with a powder-coated metal lift mechanism, on high-strength LVL slats — laminated veneer lumber, which holds its line under load better than the plywood used in most beds at this price. Measure before you order: at L230 × W239 × H105cm, the frame takes about 26cm more length and 35cm more width than the 203 × 203cm mattress inside it.
Key Features of the Mara Storage Bed:
- Dual-Mode Gas Lift: Flat for full access, tilted for a quick reach — two positions rather than one.
- 31cm Storage Depth: Clear space under the whole platform for suitcases, bedding and bulk storage.
- High-Strength LVL Slats: Laminated veneer lumber, more stable under load than standard plywood.
- Curved Upholstered Headboard: Deeply padded and rounded, made to sit back against.
- Eucalyptus and Engineered Wood Frame: Solid timber construction with a powder-coated metal lift mechanism.
- L230 × W239 × H105cm: A large footprint — allow more floor space than the mattress alone suggests.
- Taupe Brown Velvet: A warm mid-tone that grounds a pale room and works with oak, walnut, cream, brass and black metal.
Material Care & Maintenance
Velvet takes the imprint of whatever leans on it, so expect shading where pillows and shoulders sit — it lifts out if you brush the pile in one direction with a soft clothes brush. Vacuum with an upholstery attachment and brush the same way after. Blot spills, never rub: rubbing crushes pile permanently, and a crushed patch shows on taupe even though a stain might not. Test any cleaner underneath first, since water alone marks velvet. For the mechanism: guide the platform down rather than releasing it, distribute weight evenly in the compartment rather than stacking one end, and keep the contents low enough that the base closes flush.
