Is the Julian Bowen Empress right for your room?
- The king frame takes up 162 x 212 cm, which is 12 cm wider and 12 cm longer than its 150 x 200 cm mattress. Measure the room against that footprint.
- The headboard stands 140 cm high: check it clears a window sill or a sloping ceiling.
- It arrives flat packed in 2 boxes and needs full assembly; the mattress is not included.
