Why do I not need to remove items from the desk, before converting to a bed?
The StudyBed desk surface always remains level, so even drinks will not spill, and all equipment can remain plugged in. Neither is it necessary to remove the mattress or the bedding;
What can be placed on the desk ?
The recommended weight limit is around 22kg, and the more this is spread across the desk surface, the better the balance when converting. To remain in place whilst converting, items need to be less than the ‘under bed height’ shown in the dimensions drawings (approx 46 cm);
How easy are they to convert ?
The process only takes a few seconds in both directions, and can be safely done, even by a child. For added security there are 2 simply operated safety latches which will firmly hold the desk in place, and it is recommended these are used each time the unit is in desk mode.
How robust is the StudyBed ?
StudyBeds are an extremely solid, weighty item of furniture; finished in either a choice of sprayed colours, or a range of real wood veneers. They are a solid free-standing item of furniture which does not require fixing to a wall (except Majestic and Slim models)They are designed for everyday use.
What about mattresses ?
As there is currently so much choice of mattress type, plus the fact that many people wish to swap over an existing mattress, these are not included; but we can supply very good quality mattresses if required; (for prices, see under, Model Range - extras.) StudyBeds take conventional standard sized mattresses, please check dimension details for exact sizes for each model or email us if in doubt.
Delivery ?
Delivery and assembly charges
will vary depending on distance from our base in Oxfordshire; we will always endeavour to keep these costs to a minimum; the typical starting rate being £160 + VAT; please ask for confirmation
Assembly ?
As StudyBeds typically end up in one of the smallest rooms in the house; it is necessary for them to come 'flatpacked'
It is certainly possible for a competent DIYer to assemble the unit themselves (the job being made considerably easier with 2 people) but like any task being undertaken for the first time it can be quite time-consuming.
We have our own very experienced assembly team who will both deliver and assemble at moderate cost.
Once assembled, the unit can subsequently be moved quite easily to a different location by partial disassembling and reassembly
What are delivery times ?
Due to very high current demand, we are quoting about 6/8 weeks, but will do our best to accommodate anyone in a real hurry, but it makes sense to order well in advanceof when you might need it.
Where and when can I see a StudyBed ?
We have all the models on display at our showroom in Thame, Oxfordshire; please phone 01844 214484 or email enquiries@studybed.co.uk to arrange a suitable time for a demonstration.
What guarantee do you offer ?
StudyBeds are guaranteed for 5 years against failure of any part of the mechanism.
