The queen slatted base is 152 cm wide, 188 cm long and 28 cm high, sized for a standard South African queen mattress. A metal frame carries pliable wooden slats that flex under load and hold the mattress level across the full 152 cm, which is where a base with too few supports lets a mattress dip. The frame is rated to 500 kg.

It is wrapped in dark synthetic leather, which wipes clean with a damp cloth, and it will take any standard queen mattress.

The base comes flat in two boxes, 165 cm x 39 cm x 7 cm and 195 cm x 20 cm x 18 cm, 24 kg for the pair. That gets a queen bed into a bedroom without a delivery team, and assembly takes a few minutes.
