A & L Furniture English Swingbed

No, the swing bed does not include a mattress. It is designed to fit a standard twin-sized mattress, which you will need to purchase separately.

The cedar arrives unfinished, allowing you to choose whether to stain, paint, or let it weather naturally. If left untreated, the wood will gradually develop a silvery-gray patina over time.

The swing bed is compatible with both rope and chain, but hanging hardware is not included. You will need to source heavy-duty porch swing hardware capable of supporting the 125-pound weight of the bed plus the weight of the occupants.
