Wood Platform Beds from America's Oldest Bed Maker | Charles P. Rogers® Est. 1855

Wood platform beds are among the oldest bed designs referenced in history. Simply defined, the platform bed was a raised wood platform to sleep on. Today with the rise in popularity of simple and spare design, the platform bed embodies simplicity with clean lines and functional, yet elegant styling.

Considered an essential element for the modernist bedroom, our wood platform beds are among the finest examples of 20th and 21st century American, European and Oriental design movements. Each of our beds is an original creation, and all are carefully proportioned and sturdily constructed from solid hardwood planks and matched for color and grain. Our exclusive multi-step finishes enhance the natural beauty of the wood and impart a quality indicative of our more traditional beds.

The solid wood platform construction of all of our models ensures that your mattress will be well-supported, even in King and California King sizes, without the need for a separate box spring.

When Charles P. Rogers founded our company in 1855, he could hardly have imagined that his business would be as long-lasting as the beds he made. Today we celebrate over 150 years of business with an ever-expanding selection of models and styles, including classic designs from the nineteenth and early twentieth century, as well as contemporary designs from the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.  We also offer premium bed linens that add an additional level of comfort and elegance to any of the beds in our collection.

The products you will find on our web site differ from those on other sites and in catalogs or stores. Each is an original, exclusive design, made in our own factories and available for you to purchase directly from the manufacturer. Do not be fooled by inferior imitations.  We use authentic materials and processes in their construction, paying particular attention to proportion and detail in order to retain the integrity of classic designs while accommodating contemporary mattress sizes and linens.

All of our products are made to the same high standards and offer quality and value that becomes ever more apparent over a lifetime of ownership. Our range of prices is representative of differences in materials and complexity of construction.  But because of the factory-direct nature of our business, all of our prices represent substantial discounts over what you would pay for similar quality in traditional retail chains or specialty stores.

By necessity we remain a small company as our products cannot be mass-produced.  The advantage for you is that our expert staff understands and cares how our products are made and they know the best way to get them to your home safely, efficiently and economically.  We are also dedicated to resolving any issues that may arise during your purchase and ownership and welcome the opportunity to add you to our growing list of delighted customers.

Since our inception, we have manufactured and sold our products directly to the public from our Manhattan factory showroom or by mail or phone in our catalog. Our new fatory and warehouse in Florida is also open to the public. Right now, a large selection of our most popular styles are in stock and available at substantial savings from made-to-order prices. Simply order online by placing an item in your shopping cart, or order by telephone or by visiting one of our factory showrooms in NJ, NYC, and PA. We look forward to assisting you in any way possible.
