A good night's sleep is something we all desire. You've probably already invested in a mattress suited to your needs, a seasonal duvet, and organic cotton bedding.
But have you ever considered what lies beneath the mattress and how a bed frame can influence the quality of your sleep? If you want to invest in the comfort and health of yourself and your family, here's a small guide with helpful tips.
Traditionally, bed frames are made of wood, but there are also metal models. However, the long-term durability of these is debatable. The superior elasticity of wood makes the bed frame more resilient, hence the recommendations from specialists for this type of model.See offers on the market to get an idea of what model you would need for your bedroom.
There are 2 types of bed frames: fixed and those with a mechanism. Fixed bed frames, in turn, are divided into bed frames with springs, slats, or upholstered ones. Bed frames with springs are perfect for spring mattresses, together providing the same type of support.
A slatted bed frame offers firm support. If you like to sleep on a polyurethane foam or latex mattress, this is the most suitable choice. A sprung bed frame would inevitably damage a foam or latex mattress.
A sprung bed frame consists of a structure of springs, fixed to a wooden frame and covered with a durable fabric, matching that used for the mattress. This type of bed frame is recommended only for mattresses with a spring elastic structure.
The combination of a sprung bed frame and a spring mattress allows the mattress to perfectly adapt to the contours of your body and guarantees softness and maximum comfort.
In the case of an upholstered bed frame, it is covered with fabric or eco-leather which prevents damage to the mattress, but in this case, ventilation of the mattress is more difficult.
