Description
The Vinson king split bed base is made in New Zealand and comes as two upholstered halves that stand side by side, so it can be carried up stairs and around tight corners that a one-piece king base will not clear. Each half is 82.5 x 203 cm and together they measure 165 x 203 cm, with a 24 cm deep box standing 39 cm from the floor on six legs, leaving 15 cm of clearance underneath. The mattress sits on top of the padded platform rather than inside rails, so it takes a standard 167 x 203 cm king mattress. Metal struts run through each half, and the frame is padded with foam and covered in black polyester. The mattress and headboard are sold separately.

Delivery & assembly

Questions before you buy
Which mattress fits the Vinson king split bed base?
A standard 167 x 203 cm king mattress, laid across both halves. It sits on top of the padded platform rather than dropping inside rails.
Why choose a split king base?
Each half is only 82.5 cm wide, so it turns on a stair landing and through doorways that a one-piece 165 cm king base will not clear.
Does the Vinson king split bed base need assembling?
No. Both halves are made in New Zealand and arrive built, so they only need to be carried in and stood side by side.
Do the two halves move apart in use?
They stand side by side under one king mattress, and the weight of the mattress holds them together. A single mattress across both halves is what makes the base act as one bed.
What fits under the Vinson king split bed base?
About 15 cm of clearance between the legs, which suits flat under-bed storage boxes and slim cases rather than tall containers.
How tall is the Vinson king split bed base?
39 cm overall with the legs supplied — a 24 cm upholstered box on 15 cm of leg. The legs can be changed if a different bed height is wanted.
