Ikea TUFJORD Bed Frame

No, the TUFJORD is a platform bed frame designed to support your mattress directly on its slats. You do not need a box spring or foundation.

The bed frame includes adjustable side rails that allow you to lower or raise the mattress support. This ensures your mattress sits at the perfect height relative to the headboard, regardless of whether you have a thin or thick mattress.

Yes, the headboard is specifically designed with a gentle curve and soft, textured chenille fabric. It provides a supportive, cocoon-like surface that is ideal for leaning back while reading or watching TV.

The frame provides 7.875 inches of clearance from the floor to the bottom of the side rails. This is sufficient space to slide in low-profile storage boxes to help organize your bedroom.

The chenille upholstery is durable, but like any fabric furniture, it should be vacuumed regularly with a soft brush attachment to remove dust. For spot cleaning, use a mild upholstery cleaner and always test a small, inconspicuous area first.

While the bed can be assembled by one person, the size and weight of the components—particularly the headboard—make it significantly easier and safer with two people. Expect to spend a few hours on assembly, as there are several parts to connect.
