Acacia wood carries most of this platform bed, chosen for density that resists dents and holds a 660 lbs load in full size. The 41 inch headboard rises high enough to lean against for reading, with subtle grain that reads vintage rather than rustic. Twelve plywood slats sit in a recessed frame that keeps bedding from sliding, three middle legs with adjustable pads spread the weight, and 9 inches of clearance underneath opens up storage without a box spring.
