We are rolling around

Don't laugh, but we are.

We bought a new bed, and for the first few weeks we just left the plastic on the base etc. Anyway, we took off all the plastic and found the wheels, so we put them on, but because the floor is wooden the bed rolls around for anything now.

It is probably quite obvious, but can anyone suggest how we can get the bed to stop moving around so freely. There was one U shaped bracket that came in the pack, and we thought that might be to stop the bed moving, but it doesn't seem to be working or we have put it on wrong.

Many thanks

    I would leave it alone it sounds fantastic!!!!
    You may walk and you may run
    You leave your footprints all around the sun
    And every time the storm and the soul wars come
    You just keep on walking

    I agree...sounds like fun!! :D:o :rotfl:
    If you really must stop it you want chair caster cups.

    Some friends of mine had a similar problem. Every time they got frisky, their bed moved around on their wooden floor even without castors.

    They found the perfect solution was to have a baby and now they don’t have the time or energy to get frisky anymore.:D

    I feel sorry for your next door neighbour!
  • I would take the castors off and fit heavy duty rubber feet instead.
    Won't move or damage the floor then.
