Built to Order
Current build times are approximately 18-20 weeks.Platform vs. Conventional Bed Frame
A Conventional bed frame typically comes with 3-5 "slats", or pieces of wood that lay across the side rails of the bed frame. These slats are designed to hold a traditional box spring, or foundation, which sits under a mattress to provide support.
A Platform bed has either plywood or sufficient slats running down the length of the bed frame to directly support a mattress without the need for a box spring.
Platform beds typically cost a little more than Conventional ones, but they avoid the need to purchase a box spring and allow for a more modern, lower profile look.

Beautiful bed. Very sturdy. Coupled with an Avocado mattress, the best sleep experience ever. My only complaint is how long it took to get it. Good things come to those who wait, I guess. ;-)
We love it. Well made and beautiful. Classically handmade.
We recently ordered two shaker beds. The first bed, in all cherry, is perfect. The wood selected for the headboard are well matched and the cherry nicely figured. It is already darkening a bit and is a lovely color. For the second shaker bed, we ordered a bird's eye maple headboard with a cherry frame. This bed is outstanding. Again, the bird's eye wood in the headboard is well matched and looks fantastic. The folks at Chilton's were wonderful. We picked up our own bed frame and staff helped us load our truck and properly care for the bed frame pieces. Overall, we will continue to buy from Chilton's and recommend their products to all!
Beautiful craftsmanship. I love this bed!
Beautiful wood. Well made. Love the design.
Stunning. The craftsmanship and attention to detail beat my expectations.
We spent some time at the Scarlsboro showroom, determining that if Chilton shortened the legs by 2", and installed a plywood support just above the bottom of the side rails, the bed would accommodate our existing mattress and box springs. As delivered, the legs were not shortened, and slat supports were installed 3/4" below the top of the side rails, with insufficient slats to support the mattress. We wound up throwing away the almost new box springs, and compromising on our intended design.
