Bassett Furniture BenchMade Heritage Upholstered Panel Bed

Yes, this bed requires a foundation or box spring to support your mattress properly. It is designed as a panel bed, which relies on an external support system rather than a platform-style slat system.

Solid maple is durable, but it should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fading. Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can damage the finish.

Yes, the BenchMade Heritage line is designed for customization. You can select from a variety of fabric options to match your bedroom decor, allowing you to tailor the look of the headboard.

While the overall height is 58 inches, the clearance under the bed depends on the specific foundation you choose. We recommend measuring your preferred box spring height to determine the exact under-bed clearance.

The bed requires assembly, and because of the solid maple construction, the components are heavy. While the process is straightforward, we recommend having two people assist with the setup to ensure the frame is aligned and tightened correctly.

The nailhead trim is decorative and generally low-maintenance. Simply wipe it down occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust, avoiding any abrasive polishes that could scratch the metal finish.
