When choosing a new bed, buyers often prefer sofas, because you can not argue with their functionality. However, experts recommend the purchase of the bed to ensure a comfortable sleep and orthopedic support. We will tell how to choose a bed without a lifting mechanism and what are its advantages over sofas.

By the number of beds are:

1. Single beds Imply a bed for one person, the basis of the bed are 15 wooden slats. Size - 90x200 cm.
2. Double beds They are 140x200, 160x200 or 230x220 cm and are suitable for two people.
3. Single beds. Designed for one person and have an average width of 120x200 or 140x200 cm.

The headboard is:

1. Connected to a bed or wall, separate, for example, in the form of cabinets or bedside tables.
2. High and low.
3. Solid or with perforated decor.
4. From one material with a frame or upholstered in leather, textiles.
5. Different geometric or non-standard form.
6. With or without decor.

The shape of the bed can be:

1. Rectangular - The standard version of the bed with any number of beds.
2. Round. These beds are usually large in size and are suitable for modern bedroom interiors.
3. Transformer. These models are transformed into a cabinet or chest of drawers. Ideal for small spaces.
4. Bed podiums. This is a bed without legs on a flat wooden base. Used mainly in large bedrooms.
5. Bunk Standard bed for children, has two "floors" and saves space.

The following options can be used as a base:

1. Wooden slats or slats. Such slats retain the desired elasticity and rigidity.From their number and the distance between them depends on the load and bed life.
2. Metal grid. Due to the strength of the metal base, the life of the bed will be as long as possible, but due to the lack of the necessary rigidity, the mesh bends under the weight of the body and over time forms a hammock effect.
3. Sheet material. Under such a foundation means materials - chipboard, MDF and plywood. The price of products with such a frame will be much cheaper than the other two options, but also the service life is less.

The bed consists of several elements, the most important of which is the frame. It consists of - backs, side bars, supports. In some cases bedside tables, a table, padded stools or built-in wardrobes, which can be a headboard or a footboard, are complete with a bed.

In addition to the frame, another important component of the bed will be a mattress. His choice is curled and personal preferences, medical indications and budget.

Mattresses come in three basic types:

1. Foam rubber - the product is not of the highest quality, often has orthopedic properties, but is distinguished by its fragility.
2. Cotton - The cheapest type of mattress. Over time, the wool rolls in it and discomfort occurs during sleep.
3. Spring - the optimal type of mattress. It has different fillers and types of springs. From these indicators and depends on its service life.

For a standard double bed, there are three main sizes: 160x180, 180x200, 200x220 cm. The most common and affordable option is one where the length is two meters.

The size is determined not only by the frame, but also by the backs or headboard. If the backs may not be, then the headboard will almost always be. Its height is selected individually or depending on the model.

The cost of a bed directly depends on the used materials. For the frame and base use three materials:

• Tree. The most durable, environmentally friendly material that fits almost all interiors.For the manufacture of bedroom furniture, oak, beech, pine, alder or cherry are most often chosen. All these materials differ in strength and do not emit harmful fumes, unlike chipboard or plywood. In addition to wood, rattan is considered to be of high quality and wear-resistant, it has been used in furniture production more often than other materials recently. Despite the lightness, it is very durable.
• Metal. Beds on a metal base and with a metal headboard look unusual and elegant, but the cold metal is not pleasant to many people. Forged beds today at the peak of popularity. They are used in modern styles or hi-tech.
• Chipboard, MDF and metal-plastic. These materials are considered the cheapest and unreliable options. Some experts also consider them unsafe for health.

As for the upholstery, it can be made of any type of fabric, including leather.

The presence of the headboard provides a strong, healthy sleep, keeps the pillow and protects the wallpaper from abrasion.

There are three main headboard options:

1. Combined with bed.
2. Combined with the wall.
3. In the form of bedside furniture.

Headboards can also be low or high, hard or soft, of different geometric shapes and textures.

When choosing, you need to consider several important features:

• Style bedrooms.
• The size. It depends on the parameters and weight of the sleeper. For the most comfortable sleep, the growth of the potential owner is increased from 15 to 20 cm. The resulting length will be the most comfortable.
• Height. To determine the ideal height of the bed, just go to the bed. Choose the option where the knees are flush with the mattress.
• Material. When choosing a construction material, it is important to consider the following: if you choose metal as the base material, make sure that it is covered with anti-corrosion protective agents, this will allow the bed to be washed without exposing it to rust, and prolong its service life. When choosing a tree as the main material, pay attention to the array.

As accessories can be different items. Here are some of the most popular:

• Canopy. The advantage of a canopy is that it creates privacy. Most often it is used for children's rooms, despite the fact that it collects dust and blocks the proper intake of oxygen during sleep.

• Upholstery decorative elements. With their help, the necessary entourage is created, but they can also be harmful to health - dust, dirt and bed mites accumulate in them. If the decor is made in the form of folds, then there will be problems with their cleansing. If there are small children or animals in the house, the entire fabric upholstery loses its appearance over time, and the overall look of the bed becomes unaesthetic.
