Metal loft twin bed frame raises the twin-size sleeping area to create open floor space underneath for a desk, seating, or storage. The 77.5 x 40 x 73 in frame uses 12 sturdy metal slats to support up to 330 lbs while keeping the mattress ventilated so no box spring is required. A built-in side ladder gives straightforward access to the sleeping platform, and a 12-in raised guardrail helps reduce the chance of rolling off during sleep. Protective foot pads help shield floors from scratches and reduce noise when the bed is used.
