All 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds come with the bed frame in one piece*, flat packed for transportation and easy access, complete with simple-to-follow assembly/installation instructions and can be fitted by any competent handy-person in about an hour. Alternatively, we can arrange to fit them for you in London and the Home Counties, where we also offer our 'Studio Range' of Cupboard Surrounds and other Matching Storage Units. *For situations where access is severely limited, e.g.: narrow/curved stairs, we are able to offer our double 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds in two parts, which are then joined together on-site to operate as one.
NO. 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds are designed for use with a standard sized spring interior (or foam) mattress and either ordinary sheets and blankets or fitted sheets and duvets. Our 'Vertical' 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds will additionally be used with a valance, a bedspread and a (wall mounted) headboard.
VERY. The tubular steel construction of our 'Wiskaway' Wallbed frames, makes for maximum strength, combined with minimum weight. For ease of operation, all 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds feature automatic leg action and are additionally counter-balanced, by means of strong steel springs. This makes lifting the beds up and down 'a piece of cake' - especially for our very young, elderly or our many disabled customers. Since 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds can be stowed away fully made up, they can be 'down' and ready to use in literally seconds! Flexible bedding retaining straps, supplied with the beds, attach permanently to one end or side and are simply hooked across, before the bed is folded away. Nothing could be simpler!
EXTREMELY. A firm sprung base ensures proper anatomical support, similar to continental-style slatted beds, but many times stronger - (no wooden slats, or 'foundations' to break). To complement our 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds, we offer a choice of top quality, medium, or firm, interior sprung mattresses. Alternatively, you can supply your own mattress - an existing one, your favourite brand, or a foam mattress for instance.
YES. There is nothing temporary or makeshift about 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds. They are designed to withstand regular nightly use, by overweight adults and boisterous children alike. The secret is a heavy duty, tubular steel frame, combined with a unique, pre-tensioned, woven steel mesh base, which is guaranteed never to sag and allows air to circulate freely around the mattress and bedding. All 'Wiskaway' Wallbeds are guaranteed for ten years against defective materials and workmanship and will give many more years of service and satisfaction.
