What is the thickness of the slat pieces? I want to buy more to lessen the space between the slats and want to make sure it's a standard thickness.

Sorry we sold this just a couple of months ago so can't tell you...but I can tell you that we did not need more slats and it was very comfortable.

We used 1" x 4" wood to create more slats to support the mattress. It only comes with three slats. We also covered the slats with felt or flannel to give it a clean appearance and to protect the mattress from wood splinters.

You could probably get away with just the slats if you had to. There are five of them. It's made for a bed with a box spring though.

Slats. The slats are covered my a cloth, but appear to be about inch apart. It's difficult to tell as cloth is wrapped tight

i gave my couch away a few months ago as i have moved into smaller quarters so can't give you a measurement, but i can say the slats were 'fine'.. they supported the weight well, were certainly not overly narrow nor spaced too far apart. this is a sturdy couch that will last you a long time. PS, there is enough flex to the wood so you do not feel as if you are lying on a big flat rock.-- and don't let the price scare you - you get MORE than your money's worth.

I had the same problem. The slats all looked the same size. I put it together and it looks fine. The only problem I had was that one of the bolts was missing. I went to a hardware store and bought a new one. It isn't the same color but you can barely notice it.

Not sure what the other folks measured, but I'm a biochemist and w/o accurate measuring skills, I'd be unemployed. Space, & ONLY the space between the slats = 1-7/8" EXACTLY. Hope it helps.

No, all slats are not separate. The back, the bottom and the sides are separate pieces along with the gliding mechanics.

66" from the very top of the top curve to the bottom of the feet. slats are 1-1/2" wide and spaced approximately 3" apart horizontally, a little less vertically

It sounds like you may be missing another box. I thought the same thing but then a 3rd box of slats arrived a little later.

The slats are not sturdy. Replace them with 2x6s on edge and then use plywood. Not box sprint will be required. Worked for me

I describe it as 3 slats equally spaced. This is a well made product but won't fit a typical apt tub. Mine was too narrow for the mat which resulted in dangerous sliding.

Either one would be fine. I have six inch ones, and the beds are very comfortable. There are more than the usual number of slats for stability and comfort!

It only comes with three or four slats, so for added support we bought two or three 1 x 4's to cover the full length of the bed. We just had to cut them to size, an easy project, but well worth it. This bed has a great look and the drawers are great for storage.

The thickness of all slats are 7/8 inch the width varies to match the frame curve. This is a great swing.Bill OHara

The slats are 1 3/4" wide and the space between them is about 5/8th." There can be a 1/32nd difference in the space between slats but it's not noticable without a tape measure.

As James has answered, the thickness of the arms & legs are 1-3/8" and the thickness of the back & seat slats are 3/4". Easy enough to assemble, sturdy & comfortable.. I recommend..
