Description
The Vinson super king split bed base is made in New Zealand and comes as two upholstered halves that stand side by side, which is the only practical way to get a 183 cm base up a stairwell. Each half is 91.5 x 203 cm and together they measure 183 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 183 x 203 cm super king mattress flush to the edges. 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.

Questions before you buy
Which mattress suits the black super king split base?
A standard 183 x 203 cm super king. The platform measures the same 183 x 203 cm, so the mattress sits flush to the edges with nothing overhanging.
Why is a 183 cm base supplied in two pieces?
Each half is 91.5 cm wide. A one-piece 183 cm base will not turn on most stair landings or pass a standard doorway, so splitting it is what makes delivery possible.
How heavy is each black super king half to carry?
18.2 kg per half, 36.4 kg for the pair, and each arrives whole at 91.5 x 203 x 39 cm. Two people can manage one half at a time up a staircase.
What is the gap under the black super king base for?
15 cm between the six legs, which takes flat under-bed boxes and slim cases. Measure anything taller against that 15 cm before buying storage to go under it.
Does the black super king base arrive ready to use?
Both halves are made in New Zealand and ship built, so they are carried in, stood side by side on their legs, and the base is ready for the mattress.
What gives the black platform its rigidity?
Metal struts run through each half under the foam padding, holding the platform flat beneath the mattress. The box itself is 24 cm deep and covered in black polyester.
