Seller's Notes:We’re selling our gently used Design Within Reach Min Bed Frame (Queen size), designed by Lucian Ercolani — a mid-century icon known for clean lines and timeless proportions. This version features a white powder-coated steel base and a walnut wood headboard. It’s a low-profile, minimalist frame that’s both sturdy and comfortable, with a quiet, architectural presence that suits nearly any style — from warm modern to classic contemporary. The design has truly stood the test of time and feels just as relevant today as when we bought it. The bed is in excellent condition, with only a few light scuff marks on the legs. It has been well cared for in a smoke-free, pet-free home. It includes the original wooden slats, and we’re also offering a custom-cut plywood support (in two pieces) that sits on top of the slats — ideal for heavier mattresses or added firmness. We’re selling it only because we’ve recently ordered a new bed and need to make space — otherwise we’d happily keep it. Originally purchased in 2014 for ~$1,700, this model has since been discontinued by DWR, making it a rare opportunity for someone who appreciates thoughtful, well-made design.

It takes a skilled designer to make a metal bed look elegant rather than institutional, but Luciano Bertoncini has met the task. The Italian maestro — who first came to prominence when the legendary Joe Colombo included one of his pieces in a catalog — designed the streamlined Min Bed (2003) with thoughtful details such as curved edges and corners that protect shins and toes. The slat platform provides constant ventilation for a mattress (crucial for memory foam), while the sleek form also maximizes space under the bed, for those who use that area for storage. (Who, me?) No wonder the Min Bed has been a best-seller since its debut. Made in Italy.
