Twelve powder-coated metal slats and a center support leg give this twin daybed a 485 lb rating in a frame that weighs only 40 lbs. It measures 78 x 41.5 x 34.5 inches with a 75 x 39 inch sleeping surface raised 8.5 inches off the floor, leaving 6.5 inches of open space under the slats for baskets and spare bedding. Scrollwork curves along the headboard and both arms in a white finish, so by day it reads as a sofa in a living room or guest room and at night takes a 3 to 5 inch mattress (not included) as a bed. Snap-on connections and reinforced screws shorten assembly and keep the frame from shaking, and non-slip foot pads protect hard floors. No box spring is required. Assembly is required; the box holds the daybed and a user guide.
