When shopping for beds, it is not uncommon to browse for base sets for sale, which include the base and the mattress. However, it can be expensive and sometimes unnecessary if you already have a good foundation for the mattress.
Most mattresses come in standard sizes – a single is 91 cm by 188 cm, a ¾ is 107 cm by 188 cm, and a double is 137 cm by 188 cm. The thickness may vary, and the length could be different if you go with the extra-length option, but for the most part, new mattresses should fit the old base sets that we offer for sale.
The only question now is: which one of the two options is right for you? Read on to find out.
When to Shop for Mattresses for Sale
We pride ourselves on excellent pricing, because we make our own beds and sell directly to the public, instead of choosing to work with a middleman. Thus, it is very important to us that our customers are not only satisfied with the quality of beds they purchase, but also that they do not overspend on the wrong option and end up regretting what they ordered. To determine whether buying a mattress alone is the right choice, follow these steps below:
- Determine if the base set is the issue with the bed that you currently have.
- Inspect the furniture to see if it is still in fair condition or if it is falling apart.
- Determine what the maximum load capacity of the current bed set is.
- Take measurements of the unit to determine exact size.
- Shop online to see if the price difference between the full package and a mattress is substantial.
- Look if your base set is of the same standard as the ones available in your affordability range.
- Consider your budget for new furniture before making the final decision.
Sometimes, all you need is a new mattress to make your sleeping problems go away. And it is not impossible to find one fitting your current base from a store with a huge variety like ours. To ensure that all South Africans can get a good night’s rest, we have shops scattered all over the country. You can use this store locator to find one near you.
A Mediocre Bed Base Can Affect Your Sleep Even if Your Mattress is Top-Tier
If the base is not on par with the mattress you buy, you might end up with more sleepless nights in the future. A bed frame determines the ventilation and amount of support your mattress gives. It also affects the overall height of the sleeping space.
Therefore, choosing the right combination between base and mattress is imperative. It can be beneficial to get both pieces from one place because they are usually built to work together in perfect harmony.
The base quality and condition affect the lifespan of the mattress. If your bed is making noises or if it looks sunken or damaged at all, do not delay in looking for new base sets for sale.
About Our Base Sets for Sale
All our base sets are covered in high-quality fabric and crafted to provide optimal support to the mattresses sold with these particular brands. Each one comes with its own warranty. We can give these warranties because we are the manufacturers and have confidence in our workmanship.
These base sets are also fitted with small pedestals to lift them from the ground and prevent damage related to movement friction, moisture from the floor, and water spills. These feet or pedestals also allow for airflow through the base and mattress. Aside from that, it facilitates easier lifting and moving of the bed when required.
Available Range of Mattresses
We offer luxurious mattresses for less because we have cut out the middleman. Whether you shop online or in-store from one of our outlets, you save money. Have a look at the mattress options below.
ComfoSleep
The mattresses available in the ComfoSleep brand are made with bamboo knitted fabric finishes, which offer more hygienic and cool sleeping surfaces. This is due to the natural antibacterial effects that bamboo offers. Our basic units are equipped with Bonnell coil springs for a firm level of support. These mattresses are multi-turn, where the elemental sets are turn-free due to their Pillow Top designs.
Orthopaedic
The Orthopaedic range can be split into two categories. Our essential, elemental, and premium sets are all fitted with Bonnell coil springs and they are layered with foam for extra comfort. All three types have a firm feel. The premium and elemental units are completed with luxury knitted fabric for breathable sleeping spaces and offer added padding for extra comfort. They are also both turn-free, where the essential is multi-turn.
The more lavish options for sale in this range are the superior and supreme deluxe mattresses. These offer plush firmness, meaning that they are extra soft for a cushion-like feel. The insides of the mattresses are a combination of mini and normal Bonnell coil springs, as well as foam padding.
Therapaedic
Our Therapaedic series is available in four types, all with multilayers of foam inside. These offer reliable support throughout the entire body, creating minimal movement transfer for an uninterrupted sleeping experience. The supreme and superior sets feature Purotex® treated fabric, which helps rid the mattress of allergenic properties and bacteria that can gather over time.
Hybrid
We offer three types of Hybrid mattresses at The Bed Shop. The elemental features mini and regular Bonnell coil springs along with a layered foam encasement, gentle firm support level, and luxury knitted quilt finish. Superior sets have a combination of mini pocket springs and foam encasement, offering a plush feel. Finally, the premium units also have a combination inner and give gentle firm support.
