Choosing a good bed for your bedroom is the first step you should take when furnishing your home. For most people, a solid wooden double bed is the first piece of furniture they buy, even before they invest in a sofa or dining table. It makes sense too; you need a good night’s sleep in order to work hard all day and your bed will ensure that you get some quality rest time. However, with so much variety in wood beds and wrought iron beds today, it can get confusing when it comes to making the final choice.
Wrought iron beds are cheaper, easy to assemble and ideal for people who move around a lot. Since most of these beds come apart and don’t get damaged when goods are shifted from one house to another by cargo trucks, they are preferable when compared to a large teak wood bed that is expensive and also much heavier. Today you will find wrought iron beds in all sizes – single beds, queen size bed and also king size beds. Some also come with storage options made from wood and these are best ...
... for growing families. However, wrought iron beds are not advisable for long term use because they neither have stability and durability nor do they offer great support.
When it comes to wood beds, the choices are many. You will find contemporary style modern platform beds that are favourable in homes with a modern decor theme. Some are made from plywood to cut down cost, while others are solid teak wood beds and also come with smart storage option. These are best for larger rooms, in homes where moving around is not a regular affair. In homes where the decor is more traditional, finding wooden double bed made from sheesham, mango wood and oak wood are great options. Some come with carved headboards while others will come with jalli work on headboard and footboard and also have beautifully crafted shelves incorporated on the side to store medicines, books etc.
When considering beds offering extra storage, there are again many choices. The platform storage beds are all the rage today, while it is also possible to get a bed customized so that not only the bottom flat area opens up for storing out of season clothes and extra blankets but the headboard also opens up to store extra towels, bed sheets etc. Another favourable option is storage drawers that open from the side, and are much more accessible. If you have a wooden double bed that has a single large mattress, these storage drawers are a good option. The mattress alone can be quite heavy to lift and these drawers can easily be accessed without having to move the mattress at all. In case you have less storage area in the house and also have two single mattresses on your wooden double bed, choose beds that open from the top as the storage area in these are deeper due to channels added for the drawers to slide upon.
