Base features
Shallow profile design
The Shallow Base has a reduced overall height compared to the standard Recline A Bed base, making it the right choice where ceiling height, fitted alcoves, or personal preference calls for a lower bed profile.
All adjustable functions — including full head raise, foot raise, and zero-gravity — are retained in the shallower frame.
Twin motor mechanism
Two independent motors control the head and foot sections separately, allowing both to be raised and lowered simultaneously or independently.
The quiet motor system operates smoothly and is controlled via the included handset.
5-part adjustable slat system
28 sprung birch slats in natural finish are divided into five articulated sections, allowing the base to flex smoothly into every sleeping and resting position.
The sprung slats also adapt to body weight, distributing pressure evenly and allowing air to circulate beneath the mattress.
Padded headboard & low footboard
A generously sized padded headboard (122 cm from floor) provides comfortable back support when sitting up in bed.
The low padded footboard keeps the base looking clean and finished without restricting foot movement.
Chrome glides & curved support bar
Chrome glides fitted beneath the base make it easy to reposition the bed on any floor surface without lifting.
A curved chrome mattress support bar keeps the mattress correctly aligned as the base adjusts through each position.
Choice of base fabrics
The base is available in a range of fabric colours and finishes to suit your bedroom scheme.
Specify your preferred fabric at the time of ordering — each base is handmade to your specification by Recline A Bed.
Best suited to
Rooms with lower or sloped ceilings where the standard base height would be too tall
Those who prefer a lower overall bed height for ease of getting in and out

The Shallow Base is covered by a 5 year manufacturer's guarantee against defects in materials and workmanship. Should a fault arise within the guarantee period, Recline A Bed will repair or replace the base at no cost to you. The guarantee covers the timber frame, slat system, and motor mechanism.
A solid slat bed base refers to a bed frame design where the slats are flat, firm, and rigid. Solid slats provide firm and even support.
Finish
Fabric
Fabric beds are often chosen for their soft and cozy feel, as well as their ability to add warmth and texture to a bedroom. They can come in a variety of colours and patterns, from solid neutrals to bold prints, allowing for a range of design possibilities.
Style
Traditional
A classic and timeless design that has been popular for many years.
Guarantee
5 Year
One year year guarantee followed by a four year sliding warranty.
The product comes with a 1 year guarantee that covers any defects in materials or workmanship during the first year after purchase. After the first year, the guarantee transitions into a sliding warranty where the coverage decreases gradually over the 4 year period and the customer would need to contribute a increasing percentage of cost to the repair based on the age of the item.
Headboard Design
