Finding the perfect double bed for sale is a big decision to make. Since we spend a good third of our lives in bed, it’s essential that we find something comfortable and durable. An excellent double bed for sale from a quality supplier like The Bed Shop can last for many years. It’s undoubtedly an important investment and one that, when done right, will yield many advantages for years to come.
Choosing the Ideal Double Bed for Sale
With so many models and brands on the market, how do you choose the best double bed for sale? Read our comprehensive guide and follow these top tips.
- Measure Up: Before you even start looking for a double bed for sale, it’s important to check if you actually have the available space. Double beds generally measure 138 cm x 188 cm, and most of our models are available in extra-length varieties. Measure your room with a tape measure to ensure a double bed comfortably fits into the space. If you have side tables or want space between the bed and the wall, you’ll need to check that this extra space is available too.
- Budget: When searching for your dream double bed for sale, you also need to be realistic about your budget. Crunch the numbers and see what you can realistically spend without breaking the bank. Things like headboards, new bedding, and new bases can also be purchased down the line, and thus, creating your dream bed can happen over time. Since our products are made locally, we offer incredible products at brilliant prices. We also have “own it now, pay later” options available for those wanting to purchase beds on credit.
- Occupants: Next, you need to think about who is sleeping in the bed. If it’s for a single person, then a double bed will have ample room and weight-bearing capacity. Double beds are also ideal for older children and teenagers who will continue to grow and may need more space. If the bed is for two adult sleepers, check the maximum weight capacity the bed can hold and make sure you can both sleep on the bed without feeling too cramped. If you think you need some extra room, a queen– or king-size bed might be a better option.
- Consider Mattress Type: Once you’ve determined that the double bed for sale can actually fit into the chosen room and suits all occupants, it’s time to embark on one of life’s most important decisions: choosing the right type of mattress. Selecting a mattress is a personal decision. What is comfortable for one person won’t be comfortable for the next. Nonetheless, when testing mattress models, you want to ensure that the mattress supports spinal alignment and has adequate firmness levels. If you’re unsure of the firmness level you prefer, testing the mattress out is always a great idea. Here at The Bed Shop, we stock a wide range of mattresses available in an array of materials like gel and memory foam to support posture, sleeping position, and overall sleep health.
- Frame: Once you have decided on the mattress, you need to think about the type of frame or bed base you would like and the specific materials. Are you looking for a simple metal base, or would you prefer a more sturdy base made of wood? Also, consider whether you want a headboard or footboard and the types of materials you’d like these to be made from. Storage bed bases are brilliant for those wanting to make the most out of empty space and are an excellent idea for those who need some extra storage space.
