Why our sleep experts loved it

For anyone grappling with the quest of finding the perfect bed for their tranquil night's sleep, the search can be quite daunting. Embellishing your home with the right furniture that is stylish, durable, comfortable and doesn't puncture your bank account is no child's play. But worry not, because there's a piece out there that claims to be the answer to all these requirements and more; the Shilton Upholstered Bed Frame. This modern, low-rise bed frame boasts an air of simplistic elegance, promising to breathe life into your bedroom decor while ensuring you have a comfortable night's rest.

How we tested

The Shilton Upholstered Bed Frame underwent rigorous testing for durability, comfort, ease of assembly, and aesthetic appeal. We observed its behaviour across different weather conditions and usage, including the ebb and flow of our sleep positions. The bed frame was subjected to both constant and intense use to determine its resistance over time and how well it coped with movement throughout the night.

Design and features

With a captivating stylishness rooted in its soft grey woven upholstery, the Shilton bed frame is designed to blend seamlessly with diverse room decors. Its modern low-rise profile, raised on minimalist wooden legs, marries the charm of Scandinavian aesthetics with a soft, inviting appeal. The curved headboard and matching foot end tunes in a gentle elegance to the otherwise simple design. Best of all, it is not just about beauty, Shilton is special because it is practical too, an online exclusive offer with a rest-assuring one-year guarantee.

Construction

Efficient airflow to your mattress is ensured by solid slats that are part of the standard package. If you desire a notch higher in terms of shock absorption and cushioned comfort, the sprung slat upgrade might just be a worthy consideration. The bed frame incorporates a wooden supporting leg for added stability, a characteristic significantly important in an item you depend on for restful sleep. The assembly process is simple, with clear instructions guiding you to have your stylish bed ready in about an hour when two people are on the job.

Suitability

The Shilton Upholstered Bed Frame sports a versatile, unpretentious design appealing to lovers of minimalist, clean lines. Its wooden legs aptly complement modern room designs, although those inclined towards a more traditional setup might find it offbeat. However, the bed's muted greige tones and soft curves can indeed soften the decor of any room and make it inviting.

What customers thought

From the feedback obtained, customers appreciated the simplistic and modern design that seamlessly integrated into both their master bedrooms and spare rooms. Its versatile design form allows it to comfortably settle into any home environment, modifying it into a cosy place of retreat.

The verdict

Finally, after all the checks and analyses, the Shilton Upholstered Bed Frame emerges as an excellent value for its fair price. The construction materials are of high quality, resulting in a sturdy final build as long as you ensure the bolts are tightened sufficiently. The 4-week lead time might test your patience, but the resulting modern elegance in your room, combined with the comfort it offers, makes it an investment worth considering. The bed frame successfully delivers on its promises: durability, style, comfort and reasonable price, making it deserve its place under your cosy duvet.

We ordered two Shilton beds from dreams. Ordered in the sale and absolutely over the moon with them! The beds are really high quality and look luxurious. They certainly look far more expensive than what we paid. The beds were delivered promptly, on the day i had requested. The delivery men were extremely helpful, friendly and professional. They gave useful hints that helped with building the beds. The beds were very easy to assemble and the instructions were very clear. I would rate our whole experience 5 out of 5 stars and will certainly use Dreams again in the future.

Just love the curved headboard and foot end, adds a touch of elegance. But, the solid slats did not adequately support my mattress as expected.
