Whittier Wood Furniture McKenzie Bookcase Storage Bed

No, this is a platform-style storage bed designed to support your mattress directly on the frame. You do not need a box spring, which helps keep the overall profile lower.

The bed is crafted from solid American Alder hardwoods combined with Alder veneered wood panels. This mix provides the durability of solid wood while ensuring stability in the larger structural components.

Assembly is required, as the bed arrives in multiple components. You will need to assemble the headboard, footboard, and the underbed storage drawer units, so it is best to have a second person available to help.

Yes, the drawers are built with full-extension metal ball-bearing slides. This hardware ensures they glide smoothly and remain easy to operate even when fully loaded with clothing or bedding.

The drawers feature English dovetail construction, which is a traditional, high-quality joinery technique. This method is specifically chosen for its strength and resistance to pulling apart over years of daily use.

Yes, the bed is compatible with standard Queen or King size mattresses. Because it is a platform bed, ensure your mattress type is suitable for use without a box spring.
