Four storage areas in the upholstered headboard include large and small open compartments for books and decor plus an enclosed compartment that helps keep personal items out of sight. Hydraulic rods with a triangular structure work with flexible metal hinges so the headboard panel lifts smoothly and closes gently, while a magnetic catch helps prevent accidental opening. The padded headboard adds comfort when you sit up, and the slightly raised footboard helps keep the mattress in place. Sturdy metal slats, plywood and MDF panels, and five extra support legs with adjustable foot pads combine with noise reduction foams to support up to 1000 lbs. A 6-in floor clearance helps cleaning tools reach underneath the frame for easier bedroom maintenance.
