Had this bed frame for a couple of weeks now and it's pretty solid, fits well and looks stylish in the room. The low-rise design is convenient and the colour choice is a nice touch.

I ordered the Marley upholstered bed in grey from Dreams and paid extra to have it assembled. It took the delivery men 10 minutes to assembly it. Unfortunately my son sat on it and several of the slats broke and/or split. I contacted Dreams who arranged for some inspectors to come to look at the bed. Unfortunately this took a week and my son had to sleep on his mattress. They agreed it not been assembled properly and did a temporary fix. They contacted customer sevices who arranged for a new bed to be delivered a few days later. This was assembled properly by the new delivery men. Me and my son are really pleased with his new bed. Yes there were a few problems but the customer service from Dreams has been excellent and all issues have been fully resolved. I would not hesitate to buy from them again!

I have to admit the experience I had with Dreams with my purchase has been excellent. The ordering process was quick and easy. I was communicated via email clearly, and the text process regarding my delivery was frequent and clear. On the day of delivery, the driver called me twice before hand which was a breath of fresh air, as rarely drivers call before arriving despite companies saying they should. Friendly crew, and they put covers over their shoes in the house. I have to admit, the whole experience was excellent, and I will definitely look to Dreams for future purchases. The bed quality seems to be good, although I have not used the beds yet. Great job.

The bed frame and mattress were both delivered well wrapped and in good order. Both are extremely good value and look much more expensive than they actually were. The items were delivered within a week of ordering and at a convenient time. We received a 'heads up' phone call so that we were ready. The guys delivering the bed were pleasant and efficient and the whole delivery took only minutes from the van arriving outside and the bed frame and mattress being put into the room where we wanted them.

Attracted by the colour and velvety upholstery, I wasn't disappointed. Very happy do far with our purchase. Fairly easy to assemble; some fiddly bits but the instructions were easy enough to follow. The price is very reasonable indeed. It looks more expensive and seems very solid. The bed is lower than our old bed but I actually prefer it. It would be a good choice for a smaller double room as it doesn't dominate the room and makes it feel the room feel very spacious.

The quality of the Marley Low Rise bed frame is good and I would recommend buying it especially if you have limited head height in your space. Assembly requires two people and the delivery staff helpfully advised that there's a how-to online video if we get stuck. We didn't need it but it's handy to know. This bed frame looks modern, with clean lines and good quality wood has been used for the slats. A very good purchase

Communication was brilliant right up until delivery. The bed is lovely. Its very low. My only criticism is that the sides are made up of 2 pieces instead of 1 continuous length. So when you move the bed, the middle points are weak and I think I would prefer 1 continuous piece. Its been done to presumably be easier to package but the time spent connecting and strengthening this would have been easier to have 1 long piece.

Although the Bed is nice some of the components that came with the bed were not up to the same quality. Some of the wooden bed bars that hold the slats didn't have the holes to insert the slat caps. In addition some of the central caps to hold bed slats were missing. I'm still waiting for the caps to be delivered after several months!

It was a little bit of a nightmare putting the bed together, but then it's never going to be terribly easy! Once it was assembled it's very sturdy & great looking. It's more of a pale teal velvet but seems great quality. It's for our guest room & we bought the dream team conroy combination mattress so all in all it was good value!

The bed is very comfortable. Its goes together easily and is well made. I even managed to put it up on my own. Its a good height and best of all soflty upholstered so no more knocking shins on the end of the bed! Its a good neutral colour so it blends in well, almost blue grey in my navy bedroom so looks lovely.

Picture doesn't do the bed justice. It's absolutely beautiful a bit lower than I was expecting but mor than manageable to get into it. Matress is very firm very impressed with it. The best bit I love is the headboard finally have one attached to the frame so it doesn't and won't move.would highly recommend

Moved into our new house and based on our previous super king purchase, bought our kids a double bed and medium firm mattress. Absolutely fantastic and kids live sleeping on it. They say it feels like a nest. Very happy. Will buy again. Good timely delivery by polite guys and easy to assemble instructions.

Easy from start to finish, ordered the frame online and it was delivered the following week with no problems at all. Ive not unpacked the frame as the mattress is coming from another supplier and it still hasnt been delivered yet. Perhaps we shouldve purchased the mattress from dreams as well!?

OMG I just love my new bed and mattress. Its years since I had such a comfy bed. It was reasonably easy to put together if you can understand just pictures and are good at putting IKEA furniture together. Definitely takes 2 people to build.

There is more (minor) assembly than with other beds we have purchased elsewhere such as joining the sides together and adding the bars for the slats. That said, use an electric screwdriver and it doesnt take long

The bed looks far more expensive than it was and is very sturdy. My university age sons room now looks like something out of an upmarket home style magazine instead of a childs playroom! He loves it.

May be the simplest bed I've ever put together, the leaves seem robust enough, although the fixtures may seem a bit brittle. Not a problem if you intend to build it once and never think about it again.

Questions and Answers About The Marley Upholstered Low Rise Bed Frame

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

RAWA

Could you help clarify if the bed frame is challenging to assemble?

Answer: Based on a few customer reviews, the assembly process can be a bit challenging for some. There are instances where people found it difficult to align the holes of side panels or joining the side panels. However, many customers have successfully assembled it nonetheless. It could perhaps be more convenient with the help of another person. Thanks, Mike.

Verified Buyer

Is the bed frame robust and durable, with a solid construction?

Answer: There have been mixed responses in this regard. While some customers have complimented the bed frame for being sturdy and well-made, others have issues with its firmness, particularly when moving it around due to side panel joints. However, it seems for the most part, once the bed is set in a permanent position, it holds up well.

Verified Buyer

How is the aesthetic appeal and quality of the fabric used for this bed frame?

Answer: Customers have shown a positive outlook towards the look and feel of the bed frame. The fabrics, whether blue velvet or grey flat weave, are considered high quality by many buyers. The bed frame has also been complimented for its modern, clean lines and stylish look that seems to gel well with various room decors.

John Mallinder

Can this bed frame accommodate various mattresses well?

Answer: Absolutely, the bed frame is designed to be compatible with a variety of mattress types. The sprung slats offer additional support to the mattress and contribute to comfort levels. However, one customer did mention difficulties with a double mattress not fitting perfectly, which appears to be an isolated incident.

Abi1986

What has been the customer feedback regarding the height of the bed frame?

Answer: Several customers have welcomed the low-rise design of the bed frame. It is found to be suitable for people with mobility issues or if one prefers a lower bed due to personal comfort considerations. The low-rise design makes it easy to get in and out of.

HL88

Would this bed be suitable for children? And if so what age?

Answer: Thank you for getting in touch with your question. We do not have age restrictions on the core bedframe range, however we wouldnt advise a child under the age of 4 use without any type of additional sleep guard.

Savana

Can you please tell me how high it is from the floor to the top of a standard mattress.

Answer: The floor to the top of the side rail is 27cm. Unfortunately there is no standard depth for a match, so you would need to measure you mattress depth and this this on.

What is the weight limit

Answer: Good AfternoonWe currently dont specify weight limits on the bed frames however all are tested for the British Standard EN1725 on strength and stability.

Bulbul

What are the white plastic things under the legs Do I need to remove them as two of them are missing

Answer: Please get in touch with the customer service team as they will be best placed to offer clarity on this. .

Kezhen21

How can i get replacment parts for this bed please?

Answer: To get replacement parts, please get in touch with the customer service team who will be happy to help. .

Matrix1704

What is the frame made of?

Answer: Thank you for reaching out with your question. This is made from MDF and Plywood. Hope this helps, Dreams.

What size mattress would you require for the marley

Answer: Good MorningThe double Marley would require a standard UK size double mattress of 135cm x 190cm.

Could you tell me whether the blue in the photo is realistic. That is a chalky blue and not a bright blue. Thankyou. A swatch would be great.

Answer: Good MorningI can confirm that this is more of a pale blue and is not a bright colour.

Catj

Would I be able to change the legs on this bed?

Answer: Unfortunately you would not be able to change the legs on the base.

MrsK2million

Can you send out fabric samples?

Answer: Unfortunately we do not have a swatch service available.

Pauly G

How big are the gaps between the slats?

Answer: This measurement is 7.5cm. Hope this helps, Dreams.

Ask question

What Makes The Marley Upholstered Low Rise Bed Frame Great?

We've expanded on the specifications of the product to better help you understand it's benefits.

Low rise

Low rise beds are growing in popularity, in part due to deeper mattresses and offering a bit of a neutraliser to deeper bed frames. Low-rise frames main advantage is that they can also prevent overheating as hot air rises, ideal if you sleep particularly warm and are looking for all-season heat regulation.

Sprung slats

Sprung slats are typically made from a flexible beech wood and are curved in design slightly to help give an amount of flex. These slats generally have more bounce and are made of a better quality with improved spacing when compared to traditional wooden slats.

Roll top headboard and foot end

Some bed frames come without headboard to allow you to appropriately accessorise and provide further customisation to your sleep space, however, in this instance you get the entire package, featuring a luxurious classic roll-top headboard.

1-year guarentee

A 1 year guarantee is standard for the industry and gives you an adequate peace of mind as to the quality of the product and it's components.

2 people required for assembly

Self assembly is required with this frame, however, the manufacturing quality and tolerances within should make for easy work.

Available in a blue velvet finish or grey flat weave fabric

Choose the colour to suit your room with a variety of differing and contrasting options to suit any contemporary room set.
