The honest bit about lead times
A bed that is ready tomorrow was made months ago, in a size and fabric somebody guessed at. Yours does not exist yet. Here is exactly what happens between your order and your delivery.
Solid FSC beech and birch ply, cut to your size on our own machines. Nothing is subcontracted.
Your fabric is laid out, matched and cut by hand. Piping is sewn to the panel, not bought in.
Foam, fibre and fabric go on the frame by hand. Every button is pulled by one of our upholsterers.
Inspected, photographed, then loaded onto our own van with a two hour delivery window.
Step two, explained properly
The base changes the height, the floor line and how much you can store. Non storage sits on legs. Every storage and adjustable base sits flush to the floor.
Included
Sits on turned beech legs, so you see floor underneath and the bed reads lighter in a small room.

Gas struts lift the whole platform. Flush to the floor, so no legs and no gap to vacuum under.
+ £550
The same storage, lifted by a button on the side of the base. Chosen most by anyone who lifts with one hand or a bad back.
+ £750
Head and legs profile independently. Reading, watching, swollen ankles, reflux. Needs a mattress that bends.
Overall footprint is bigger than the mattress, because the frame is upholstered. Check the width against your room and the length against the foot of the bed before you order.

Delivery and installation
We do not hand your bed to a courier. The people who deliver it work for us and have carried a thousand of these upstairs.
When your bed is finished we ring you with dates, then confirm a two hour window the day before. If access is tight, tell us then.
Delivered in parts so it fits through your doors, assembled where you want it, old bed taken away on request.
Every bit of cardboard and film goes back on the van for recycling. You are left with a made bed and a clean floor.

Before you commit
Because your bed is cut and upholstered for you, it is not a stock item we can resell, so it is not covered by standard distance selling returns. That is why you can order swatches first, and why you can change your specification free within 48 hours of ordering. If a bed arrives faulty or not to specification, we put it right or replace it.
Your frame is cut after you order. Nothing about this bed exists before your order lands. We give you the delivery week upfront rather than a vague estimate, and we ring you to book a two hour window once it passes inspection.
It arrives in parts, so most tight staircases are fine. The headboard is the largest single piece. Send a photo of your stairs, landing and doorway to sales@thesleepco.com and we will confirm before we cut anything.
The ottoman lifts the whole platform for storage underneath. The adjustable platform profiles at the head and legs so you can sit up, and it does not store anything. Both sit flush to the floor with no legs. An adjustable base needs a mattress that bends, and compatible mattresses are marked on their own pages.
No. The bed takes a standard UK size mattress flush to the frame edge, so anything you already own in the right size will fit. If you are choosing an adjustable platform, check your mattress can profile first.
Fifteen years on the frame. Five years on upholstery, motors and electronics. Labour is covered for 24 months with unlimited callouts. It covers manufacturing faults, not accidental damage or wear from misuse.
