About Our Liquidation Sale

PlatformBeds.com is currently a family owned business in a joint corporation comprised of Brian, Vicki and Ken. Two of the partners (Vicki and Ken) have decided to retire. Vicki so she can spend more time with her family and new grandson. Ken so he can devote more time to his production business. So the store is currently going through a Retirement Liquidation Sale.

All inventory in the showroom and warehouse is being sold. Nothing is being held back. The corporation will continue its PlatformBeds.com operation while working to honor all existing customer orders with its vendors just as it has always done for more than three decades. However, it is necessary for us to suspend new and special orders for the time being. This is so the owners have sufficient time to reorganize, revitalize, and for the store,Platform Beds to reopen under Brian's sole ownership. Continued support of long time customers, as well as friends of the store over the years, is greatly appreciated as we transition through this liquidation process.

This is a true liquidation as the corporation, Triunity Interests Corporation, is dissolved and Brian's new corporation emerges. In terms of the store's future, Brian wants to reopen as LifeStyles Furniture, a name well trusted and recognized; retaining a number of high-profile trusted brands but also introducing several new and exciting lines that are sure to offer a great mix of home furnishings and decor in the Quad Cities. Plans are to reopen with a smaller showroom footprint sometime in early 2020 Your patience and understanding is appreciated as the remaining store assets are liquidated and plans for the reopening are solidified.

"Why own a platform bed?"

Mattress Only Foundation The first thing to know is platform beds are designed for a mattress only as they already have a built-in foundation consisting of either a slat support system or solid panel system. This means you can discard your existing box spring or you can shop mattress only options and save hundreds on an unnecessary box spring. Most importantly box springs don't always fit around tight corners, platform beds do.

Storage Solutions The second thing is that modern platform beds offer space saving designs. It's because the rails for platform beds are set higher at where you'd normally find the top surface of a box spring. This provides ample space beneath the bed for integrated or independent storage drawers that can make use of this extra space since there is no box spring in the way. In smaller rooms where dressers and chests just don't fit a platform bed with drawers is the perfect solution.

Clean Open Look Lastly platform beds are designed to have a more open and less cluttered look than traditional styles. The reason for this is that while most beds use a metal frame on the floor with the boxspring and mattress on top, platform beds instead use an integrated footboard and rail system that allows for a more cleaner and uniform look all around the bed into the headboard. This also leaves space beneath the bed which creates a clean crisp open appearance.
