When we first brought the Lethbridge into the showroom, the reaction from customers was pretty consistent: people stopped and looked twice. The channel tufting on that grey velvet headboard catches the light differently depending on where you're standing. It's a bed that looks like it belongs in a design magazine but works just as well in a real Ontario bedroom with laundry piled in the corner. But the real story here is the storage. Three full benches worth of it. Three Storage Benches, Real Results The Lethbridge includes two storage benches on either side of the bed and one along the front foot. That's a significant amount of hidden space in a footprint you were already using. In our experience, this kind of storage works especially well for seasonal items, extra blankets, spare pillows, or anything you need occasionally but don't want taking up closet or dresser space. The bench at the foot of the bed doubles as a functional seating surface. Several customers have mentioned they use it every single morning to sit and put on shoes. It's a small thing, but it changes how a bedroom flows. The footboard and rails sit at 15 inches, which is a comfortable height for most adults to sit on without feeling too low or too high. Dimensions run 99 inches long by 92 inches wide for Queen, and 99 by 104 for King. Caring for Velvet Upholstery Velvet looks luxurious because of the way the fibres reflect light, and keeping that look is straightforward with a bit of regular care. Use a soft brush or velvet-specific fabric brush to lift the pile occasionally. Avoid sitting on the headboard with damp clothing. For spills, blot immediately rather than rubbing. We'd suggest keeping pets off the upholstered surfaces if possible, as claws can snag the weave over time. The Wingback Headboard The headboard on the Lethbridge is a wingback style, meaning it has panels that curve forward slightly on each side. This creates a sense of enclosure and coziness when you're sitting up to read or watch something on a tablet. It also means the headboard acts as a subtle sound buffer if the bed is against a shared wall. The channel tufting runs vertically, which elongates the visual height of the headboard and keeps the overall silhouette clean. Grey velvet is one of those fabric and colour combinations that photographs well but also holds up to real daily use without looking tired quickly. This is a platform bed, so there's no box spring required. Your mattress sits directly on the base. If you haven't already picked your mattress, our mattress quiz is a good starting point. The Lethbridge pairs well with almost any mattress type, but many customers with storage beds prefer lower-profile options so the overall bed height stays manageable. While you're thinking about the full room setup, it's worth browsing our bedding collection. With a grey velvet frame, you have a lot of latitude. Warm terracotta tones, dusty blues, and even muted mustard all work well against this colour. And of course, we have a full range of mattresses to pair with the frame if you need both.
