What holds its value across Made.com
- Design-led pieces in good condition, which is what the brand was bought for and what buyers still search by name
- Velvet and bouclé upholstery in the distinctive colours the brand used, which are hard to find elsewhere at any price
- Pieces with all original fixings and assembly instructions, which matter more than usual because replacements cannot be ordered
- Marble and solid-wood topped tables, which are the materials that survive rather than the veneered ones
What pulls Made.com resale value down
- Damaged or stained upholstery, since replacement covers can no longer be ordered from anyone
- Missing fixings and bolts, which on flat-pack furniture from a closed company means sourcing generic substitutes
- Upholstery with no fire-safety label, which UK buyers check for under the cushions
- Chipped veneer and foil edges, which are the usual failure on the lower-priced ranges and cannot be repaired invisibly
Identifying and dating yours
- Say in the listing that parts and covers are no longer available, because a buyer will find out and it is better coming from you
- Photograph the label under the seat, which carries the range name and the fire safety information
- Count and photograph every fixing and the instructions if you still have them, since they cannot be replaced
What lifts any bed frame, whatever the label
Bed frames sell steadily because everyone needs one, but the value sits almost entirely in the material and whether the fittings survived.
- Solid wood and metal frames over particleboard
- All original bolts, cam locks and slats present
- Standard mattress sizes rather than unusual ones
- Storage or ottoman frames, which are in demand
And what pulls one down
- Missing fittings, which make reassembly impossible
- Broken or missing slats
- Squeaking joints that have worn oval
- Non-standard sizes that limit mattress choice
Working out what yours is worth
- Dismantle it and bag every bolt and fitting with the frame
- Count the slats and check none are cracked
- Confirm the mattress size it takes
What to state in the listing
- Mattress size it takes, and the external footprint in centimetres
- Material: solid wood, veneer, metal or upholstered
- Whether it dismantles, and whether all fittings and the allen key are present
- Slat condition, and whether the frame has storage or drawers
Mattress size, material and type: “King Size Solid Oak Bed Frame with Slats”. Mattress size is the primary search and must be exact. Say whether it dismantles and whether the fittings are included — both materially widen who can buy it.
Preparing and photographing it
- Confirm the mattress size it takes and measure the external footprint, which is larger than the mattress.
- Find the fittings and any allen key, and locate the assembly instructions if you can.
- Check every slat, and inspect the joints for wobble or previous repairs.
- The frame assembled, from a corner
- The slats and central support from above
- The fittings and allen key laid out
- The headboard detail, and any damage or repair
When it sells best, and handing it over
Steady with peaks in spring and summer moving season. Solid wood and upholstered frames hold value; basic metal frames sell cheaply.
Collection only. Dismantle it before the buyer arrives if you can, and tape the fittings in a labelled bag to a rail — it makes the handover smooth and gets you a good rating.
What buyers ask
Can I still get replacement covers or parts?
No. The company ceased trading in 2022, so spares, covers and warranty support are gone. Sell the piece as it stands and say so plainly.
Does that make the furniture worth less?
It makes damaged pieces worth much less, because they cannot be put right. Undamaged pieces still sell well — the designs are what people wanted in the first place.
How much is a Made.com bed frame worth?
Roughly £36 to £225 depending on condition, against £40 to £250 for bed frames generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
