Bed Part Name, What do you call it in English?
Hello Everybody,
I am trying to translate a text into English and there is an item that I don't know what to call. It is the base of the bed, but that contains wheels. Here is an image of what I mean.

Do you think I can get away with "wheeled bed frame" or something like "wheeled bed base"? Any suggestions? I would appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance!

I also call it a metal mattress frame/bed frame, and I think you can include "rolling" if that's a feature of interest in the text but if not it's okay to omit it. A lot of them have wheels, but that's not always a feature that's included in the name of the product in my experience.
