A MODERN PLATFORM BED FRAME

Simple yet exquisite. Handcrafted with 100% sustainably harvested maple or walnut wood, our Malibu Platform Bed Frame combines tasteful elements with modern touches ā€” like rounded edges, brass accents, and easy assembly ā€” for a classic design that will never go out of style. Both maple and walnut are high-quality hardwoods that are durable, resilient, and sustainable. And the woods' beautiful, natural patinas add to their exceptional appeal. No toxic, VOC-emitting glues or finishes are ever used. Elevate your bed frameā€™s already beautiful style with an optional 41-inch or 46-inch tall headboard (ideal for the Luxury Plush Mattress). Every piece is made in our clean energy-powered, FSCĀ®-certified (C156138) Los Angeles facility, which combines traditional craftsmanship with innovative technology and meets stringent standards for social and environmental responsibility.

SLEEK & SPACE-SAVING

Modern Platform Bed Frame Compare to Thuma Bed

100% DURABLE, SUSTAINABLY HARVESTED WOOD

Because of its abundance and shorter life span, maple is one of the most sustainable timbers. Itā€™s also a hardwood, so it's extremely resilient. At Avocado, we handcraft all our furniture and use real wood. We believe in letting the rich character of the timber speak for itself. This way, every piece is original, with its own slight variations. It costs a little more to do things this way. But our customers love having unique, durable, thoughtfully crafted furniture that will last generations.

The Best Wood Platform Bed Frame

NATURALLY SAFE

Furniture paints and stains are toxic, known to emit harmful VOCs that negatively impact indoor air quality. To make matters worse, the Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) and particleboard commonly used in furniture often contain carcinogens such as Urea-formaldehyde or Phenol-formaldehyde. Our Malibu Platform Bed Frame uses 100% naturally non-toxic maple or walnut wood, non-toxic Titebond Wood Glue, and eco-friendly ECOSĀ® Paint wood varnish. In addition, our membership to the Sustainable Furnishings Council backs up our commitment to providing furniture and products that are better for you and the planet.

    Frame, headboard, and slats are solid FSCĀ®-certified Maple from California or Oregon or solid FSCĀ®-certified Walnut from Michigan. Slats are 1-1/2" thick. Made in Los Angeles, California, in our own woodshop. Note: The walnut build showcases the natural depth and unique grain patterns of the timber. Walnut is known for its complex colors, durability, and strength, but does feature some variation in wood tone and color.

  • Zero-VOC Stain

    We do not use traditional lacquers or varnishes, which typically contain harsh chemicals and have strong fumes that can cause headaches, nausea, and respiratory issues. Instead, our bed frames use a zero-VOC ECOSĀ® WoodShield stain, which is organic, non-toxic, and odor-free. It conforms to CDPH 01350 (VOC emissions test taken at 11, 12, & 14 days for classroom and office use), as well ASTM D4236, specifically concerning oral toxicity, skin irritation, and respiratory effects. 

  • Safe, Odorless Glues

    Our assembly utilizes TitebondĀ® wood glues, which are safe and produce no harmful fumes. They meet the requirements of ASTM D4236 for safe use with arts and crafts and have both been approved for indirect food contact. The finished bed is Greenguard Gold certified for extremely for child-safe low emissions. This means it meets the worldā€™s most rigorous emissions standards for chemical exposure and pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Maple is Formaldehyde-Free claim verification by UL Environment.

  • Carbon Negative Production & Shipping

    Avocado is a carbon negative business. That means we voluntarily offset more than 100% of our emissions, from resource extraction to shipping, by supporting carbon offset projects through the Bonneville Environmental Foundation.
