A Modular Bed for Easy Moving

This elegant piece of modern furniture offers an unusual option for buying and moving furniture.

By Rob Wotzak

Flat packed and shipped right to your doorstep, the Floyd platform bed is simply a set of sleek powder coated steel legs and birch plywood panels that cinch together with ratchet straps, forming a sturdy base for any mattress — but one that you could disassemble and carry away in minutes whenever you need to. All of the parts for their furniture are sourced from regional manufacturers not far from the manufacturer’s Detroit headquarters.

  • Legs available in black or white
  • Ships free in the contiguous lower 48 states
  • Twin: $489, Queen: $589, King: $699

Simply slide the legs onto the finished plywood slabs and cinch everything together with the supplied straps—your hands are the only tools you need
