Avocado makes its solid wood City Bed Frame in our woodshops with a clean, modern aesthetic, using solid Birch or Walnut wood and a simple zero-VOC finish. No color stains are used. Assembly of the City Bed is simple and tool-free. It's sturdy and designed to accommodate an optional Adjustable Base.
Thuma makes their wood bed frame in Vietnam and the USA with a minimal design aesthetic and Japanese joinery, making assembly tool-free. Four color stains are available, rather than different wood species. Thuma uses upcycled rubberwood, a less expensive wood commonly used for furniture, in small pieces that are glued together to form fullboards, and stains them to resemble higher-end woods.
Both are high-quality bed frames that are easy to assemble and have a modern aesthetic.
