MARKET NOTE

Ordered by construction-led judgement using your weights; scores are assessments, not laboratory measurements. KD is the budget recommendation; Thuma is the sole premium selection, justified mainly by quiet interfaces, joinery and serviceability, not prestige. Prices are configuration-specific snapshots: KD uses a Queen retailer listing; Quokka and Thuma are starting configurations, not verified Q

    Tojo system bed

    Modularity is the substance: its interlocking beech lattice reuses feet and slats when the bed expands. Nine floor-contact feet support 250 kg, but mattress compatibility needs careful checking.
