The Karup Retreat futon bed carob 160×200 cm is a double bed with a headboard in carob brown lacquered pine, 166 cm wide and 226 cm long. The bed is 93 cm high at the head end. The 61 cm headboard serves as a bedside table: open shelves 20 cm deep with a cable pass-through behind each shelf, for a lamp, a book, or a phone on the charger.
Carob brown is a dark, warm shade in which the wood grain shows through. Combined with the rounded corners of the frame and headboard, this creates a bed that looks sturdy without appearing heavy. The Retreat is positioned with the headboard against the wall. It is a design by Says Who, the Danish agency behind more Karup beds.

Choose a futon
You can choose a Karup futon directly with the bed, or take the bed without a futon and use your own mattress. Each futon is constructed from layers of cotton around a core:
- Traditional: coreless cotton, approximately 13 cm
- Comfort: cotton with a 4 cm foam core, approximately 15 cm
- Coconut: cotton with a 3 cm coconut board core, approximately 16 cm
- Sandwich: cotton with a core of 4 cm latex foam and 3 cm coconut board, approximately 16 cm
- Double latex: cotton with an 8 cm latex foam core, approximately 18 cm
- Triple latex: cotton and wool with a core of 6 cm latex foam and 2 cm horsehair, approximately 20 cm
You can find the explanation for each filling at our futon mattresses.
Organic futon
Karup's futons are made from recycled cotton: eco-friendly, but without organic certification. If you opt for a fully organically produced mattress, free from chemicals and pesticides, with certificates and quality marks, and a more luxurious finish, order the bed without a futon and choose the organic futon mattress Traditional 160×200 cm.
