Why is it worth the time to choose?
Many choose furniture, not paying attention to this issue, because it simply does not have enough time. Everyone wants his house or apartment looked beautiful and stylish. However, when choosing furniture in the bedroom, you need to think not only how it will look, but how comfortable it will be.
The bedroom is a “sacred” place where everything does not go, especially the guests. The doors of this room are usually closed, so that it seems like a special room.
When choosing a bed in the bedroom, you choose your health, because doctors talk about sad statistics: more than 50% of men and women under the age of 40 have back problems, and they are caused by an unsuitable sleeping place.
If you come to the question of health responsibly, then choose a safe bed.. It fully justifies its rather big price, because in return you will get good health, no back problems, and it will serve you for a long time.

Some people, when they go to a furniture store, have a clear prefix about what kind of bed should be.
Among the latest models are in demand:
- Horizontal "cabinet". It is easy to turn into cupboard, so this model is mainly chosen by those who need to save space in the room. It rises in width and when the bed is folded, it turns into a shelf on which books and other objects can be put. Often this model is chosen by children.
- Vertical "cabinet". It rises in height and it can also be used as a cabinet after lifting. Often such models have a mirror.If the horizontal wardrobe-bed is often single and used in the nursery, then the vertical is usually designed for two people and is suitable for a regular adult bedroom.
- «Sofa". Some put it in the bedroom, but, according to experts, this model is more suitable for the living room.
- «Podium". It looks very aesthetic. The frame of this bed is fixed, so it is called the "podium" or "platform." Usually this model is complemented by drawers on the sides, so it turns out to be useful.
There are other types of beds that can be used for the bedroom. However, experts advise choosing not based on the model or design, but taking into account such factors as size, frame, mattress and others.

It is very easy to choose the length - you need to take into account your height and height of your spouse. If you make a mistake by defining this parameter, you can easily ruin the bed, so that sleep will turn into a real test. Those who have slept on a bed with their legs hanging at least once in their life know how uncomfortable it is.
You can measure the width right in the store: you need to lie down, put your hands behind your head and stretch your elbows in different directions. And half of the bed should remain free - for the second person.
The bed models in the bedroom amaze with a variety of possible forms. If earlier they were only rectangular, then no one could imagine, for example, a round bed. Available to us, and round, and oval, and arched, and some manufacturers make models in the form of two half a heart and other original ideas.
Behind all this originality is the problem with the practicality of such beds. First, pick up the bedding, the blanket, pillows for them is not easy, and secondly, the furniture of unusual shape takes up a lot of space. Of course, no one will dissuade you from the idea of buying a round or curved bed, but choosing it, you must first consider the question of where you can buy several replacement sets of linen and other necessary items at once.
The rectangular bed is a classic. Do not think that it will look too simple, if you want to focus on the luxury and exclusivity of the product, you do not have to buy its unusual shape. It is better to choose expensive material, high-quality mattress and stylish design.

The first thing you need to pay attention to when choosing a frame, as one of the main elements of the whole structure, is its material. The highest quality and reliable ones are those made of wood or metal.
Choosing an oak frame, you can be sure that it will last a long time, and it will be used by children and even grandchildren.The only thing that most likely will have to be updated is the mattress.
Another common material for making the frame is pine, which is cheaper than oak and is not so durable. However, if you choose between it and artificial material, such as MDF or fiberboard, it is definitely in priority. Beds made of wood substitutes are cheaper, but they break more often, so you have to buy new ones all the time.
As for the frame design, it is necessary to choose it, unlike the material, based on your taste and preferences. There will be four legs by the bed or a support structure, whether the back is or not, you decide.
The only thing that experts advise, is that it is desirable to have a back at the head. Some decide to choose a quality material, such as oak, but save, refusing backs. If it is permissible to refuse at all that at the feet, it is better to leave at least a small panel at the head of the head.

The choice of mattress plays the most important role in ensuring that the bed is safe for health. It is widely believed that a good mattress is a hard mattress. None of the doctors, orthopedists and other specialists would agree with this statement. And those who slept at least one night on a hard mattress, were convinced by themselves how uncomfortable and sometimes even painful it was.
Of course, too soft a mattress, in which you fall completely into all parts of the body, is also an unhealthy option. It is difficult to say which of the two wrong options is more dangerous for health, because too hard and too soft can cause irreparable harm to the back. Therefore, it is best to buy orthopedic mattresses, which are of two main types:
- spring;
- springless.
Also popular are such models of orthopedic mattresses:
- With independent spring blocks. Each spring of such a model is packed in its own case. When one of them is pressed, it does not touch the others. These mattresses perfectly follow the contour of the human body, so that it is comfortable for both of you to be together, because when one moves, the shape of the mattress under the second remains unchanged.
- Latex. This springless mattress, which is based on hevea juice, popularly known as the "rubber tree". It is an environmentally friendly material and has recognized orthopedic properties of doctors.
- "With memory". It is based on polyurethane foam, which completely takes the form of the human body, “memorizing” it and provides an orthopedic effect. Not everyone can get used to such a mattress right away, the first few nights may experience discomfort, but after a few weeks a person cannot imagine how he slept before without him.

- Baroque. Differs in curvilinear forms, such as curlicues, flowers. The material most often used is oak or other high-quality trees. Looks particularly elegant in white, blue and pink with gold hues.
- Modern. Forms of such a bed are rounded, smooth, but there is restraint in everything, curls and other decorative elements are absent. Looks beautiful in gray, white, brown tones.

return to menu ↑Practicality of the bed
To make the bed in the bedroom not only stylish, but also practical, manufacturers use additional equipment.
You can choose a bed, additionally equipped with such design features:
- Gas lift. This is a lifting base that allows you to keep bedding and other things inside the bed. It is very practical, but harmful to the mattress, which quickly becomes unusable due to lack of air inside the frame.
- Drawers. The principle of their application is the same as for models with gas lift. But if in those the mattress rises for access to things, then for models with drawers access to them is facilitated.
- Embedded shelves. They are attached to the headboard and are intended for storing small items, for example, they can be framed with photos or souvenirs.
- Side wall. Beds with an additional wall are suitable for those bedrooms that are corner rooms. If you have to sleep near the street wall, then the side plate will be protected from the cold.
- Backlight. It is used as a decor or for ease of reading in the evenings.
- Remote control. Available only in expensive beds. Thanks to him, it is easy to transform into a chair, wardrobe and other available options.
