Century Bed

About the Century bed

The Century bed leads with its headboard. The panel is padded and covered in leather, so you can sit up against it without feeling the frame behind you.

The body uses medium density fibre wood panels over a solid wood base. That combination keeps the bed rigid at the joints, which is where cheaper frames start to creak.

Sizes for the Century bed

Overall, six sizes cover the range. A 6 x 6 measures 75 by 72 inches, and a 6 x 7 measures 75 by 84 inches. The narrower frames run from 6 x 4 at 75 by 48 inches to 6 x 5 at 75 by 60 inches, with a 7 x 7 at 84 by 84 inches at the top.

Before you choose, measure the room, because the headboard adds depth at the wall end. Leave at least 24 inches on each side of a double frame for getting in and out.

Who the Century bed suits

It suits a main bedroom where the bed is the centre of the room. Because the leather panel wipes clean, it also works in a hotel room that turns over guests every night.

Care and upkeep

Then dust the headboard with a dry cloth and wipe marks with a damp cloth. Keep the leather out of direct sun, which dries it over time. Check the base joints twice a year and tighten the bolts you can reach.

Delivery and warranty

Orders leave from Vitafoam showrooms and distributors across Nigeria. We confirm your delivery window at checkout, and the box paperwork states the warranty that applies.

Because the headboard is padded, you can read in bed without a cushion behind you. If you buy two matching frames, order them together so the leather comes from the same batch. Then dust the panels each week, since dust settles into the grain. Also check the bolts after the first month.
