Design
Most standard bed models consist of such details:
- Frame.
- Base.
- Backrest (one or two).
The frame is a rectangular design consisting of four panels (Tsargi). It rests or on the legs, or on the back.
The frame is the main part of the entire design and the strength of the bed and the duration of its operation depends on it. Pay attention to the frame: it must be made of durable material (wood or metal), and its size is exactly the coincidence with the mattress size. Otherwise, the bed can quickly break.
The base is the basis, as a rule, is a box for linen. Fastened to the frame and consists of a wooden, plastic or metal grid (lamella). A single bed may consist of fifteen plates, and a double - from thirty. Instead, wooden plywood can also be used. If you want to sleep on an orthopedic mattress, then it is better to choose the base from the lattice to get the maximum effect.
The base of wooden rivers is distinguished by a low cost. During operation on wooden rails, the mattress will eventually begin to lose its shape.
Plastic bases allow you to adjust the position of the bed, but differ in high cost. Since they are very durable, then such a bed will serve not one year.
Durable and rigid bases consist of a metal grid.
One of the backs of the bed serves as headboard. When buyers are looking for an answer to the question: "How to choose the right bed", sellers consultants advise to pay attention to furniture, having only headboard. It is convenient to use it during the rest or reading, leaning back. If you love to relax, then you need to choose the bed, which has a flat high wall without protrusions. If you want to get the maximum comfort, then it is better to choose a bed with a high soft headboard.
People with high growth is better to choose a model bed without a "foot" backrest. It should also be paid to the rails, since the softness or rigidity of the bed depends on their quantity. Some designs allow you to additionally adjust their height.
When choosing a bed, it is worth paying attention to the presence of a box for linen, which can be embedded in the sidebar or located directly below the berth. In addition to linen, in a spacious box it is convenient to store demi-season blankets, as well as plaids and pillows.
What material should there be a bed?
Choosing a bed must ask what material it is made. Thus, modern models have a base of wood or veneer, as well as chipboard, MDF and metal. Do not acquire cheap products that are made of materials dangerous to human health. Environmentally friendly material - a tree, in addition, it is reliable, durable and durable.
Popularity Recently conquered beds made of laminated wood chipboard. This is a durable material, and such products will cost a little cheaper than completely wooden. But you should not buy beds made of laminated plates to people suffering from allergic reactions. The glue, which is part of the product, can cause irritation of the upper respiratory tract.
In addition to these materials, Bed Frames are often made from plywood. Her quality can be different. When choosing, pay attention to the strength, do not forget to inspect the fastener and check whether the veneer does not run.
In addition to the bases of wood, as well as from MDF or DVP, are not inferior in durability and quality of beds made of metal. Due to the fact that it does not tolerate moisture, it is covered with special corrosion protected by corrosion.
How to choose a double bed

If one of the spouses has a high height, then you need to purchase a bed with a length of a bed of at least two meters.
