Main-Bedroom Storage, Hidden in the Bed
The California is a gas-lift storage bed in the two main-bedroom sizes, King and Queen. The whole sleeping platform rises on gas struts, turning the space beneath the mattress into storage for the bulky things a main bedroom collects — without giving up floor space to another piece of furniture.
Key Features
-
Gas-lift storage platform — the platform rises on gas struts and stays raised while you load
-
Upward-opening storage — the cavity opens from above, with nothing pulling out across the floor
-
King and Queen — 183 × 203 cm and 153 × 203 cm mattress footprints
-
Main-bedroom scale — the bigger the bed, the bigger the space underneath it
Why the biggest beds make the most of a gas-lift
Main bedrooms end up holding the household’s bulk: spare bedding for every bed in the house, luggage, the seasonal changeover of clothes. A gas-lift puts all of it under the mattress you already own — and because the area under a King or Queen platform is the largest under-bed space in the house, this is where a lifting platform pays for itself. The struts do the heavy part: the platform rises, stays up while you load at standing height, and lowers under control.
Between the two sizes, both share the same 203 cm length; the King adds 30 cm of width for two sleepers who want their own space, while the Queen suits rooms where a King would crowd the walkways. Whichever way you go, allow room to stand beside the bed while the platform is raised, and check the strut rating against the mattress you plan to use.

Before You Buy
- Confirm current size availability, and which finishes the California is offered in.
- Ask what the finish is made of and the care it needs.
- Ask about the storage-cavity depth and layout, and the mattress size and weight range that suits the gas struts.
- Ask for the assembled frame and headboard dimensions before planning the room.
- Confirm delivery and assembly options — a gas-lift rewards careful assembly, so ask about the assembly service.
