Wright Upholstered Bed vs Gewnee King Velvet Platform Bed

The Gewnee is the simpler buy for most people: a king platform bed with a velvet headboard, wood slats and a 600 lb capacity, and no box spring needed. The Wright is the better bed for lounging and for anyone who wants an adjustable base, with a taller angled headboard, GREENGUARD Gold certification and a walnut veneer finish. Owners rate the Wright highly on its 24 ratings, but it needs a box spring or a mattress on its engineered slats, and assembly is not included with doorstep delivery.

  • Choose the Wright if you want an adjustable-base-ready bed with a tall angled headboard, a walnut veneer finish and GREENGUARD Gold certification.
  • Choose the Gewnee if you want a straightforward king platform bed with a velvet headboard, slats included and no box spring.

Questions and answers

Which is better for reading or watching TV in bed?
The Wright. Its headboard is taller and slightly angled, which supports sitting up, and it is built for lounging. The Gewnee headboard is straight and lower.
Which lasts longer?
The Gewnee states a 600 lb capacity and uses ten wood slats with a center support leg, which suggests sturdier mattress support. The Wright does not state a capacity, and its slats are engineered wood.
Is the Wright worth stepping up to?
Yes if you want an adjustable base, a walnut veneer finish or GREENGUARD Gold certification. If you just need a king platform bed, the Gewnee covers that with less fuss.
Do either need a box spring?
The Gewnee does not; its slats support the mattress directly, with an 8 to 10 inch mattress recommended. The Wright includes engineered wood slats, and a box spring is optional.
Can I use an adjustable base with the Gewnee?
No adjustable-base compatibility is stated for the Gewnee. The Wright is explicitly built to work with an adjustable base.
Which is easier to assemble?
The Gewnee ships in one box with numbered parts and takes about 30 minutes. The Wright requires assembly, and doorstep delivery does not include it.
