Comfortable Double Bed

A Comfortable And Affordable Double Bed

Most of us spend quite a bit of time choosing our bed, and then after a while it often doesn’t seem as comfortable as we had hoped. So how do you get a bed which you will be pleased with for a long time?

The best way, without doubt is to go for a bed which is recommended. Hence I am writing a review about one which I got and love. Below are my reasons why this was such a good buy.

Assembly
There is no avoiding assembling furniture these days – just about anything you buy now is going to need some degree of putting together. This bed came with very clear instructions, I am not big into DIY and I had no problems. I also had all the bits I needed. Before buying a bed, I always read the reviews to see if people complain that bits were missing. I will never buy anything which has a review which suggests that no care and attention was taken at the factory. This was well packages, there was no damage to any of the parts and it included everything I needed to assemble it – the bed passed this section with flying colors.

Comfort
I used to have a box sprung base, but after staying overnight at a friends place I was converted to the idea of a platform bed as I had the most amazing nights sleep. (My friend did warn me that I needed to invest in a good mattress if I was going to swap to a platform bed – I did follow this advise check out my mattress reviews here). I am very pleased with sleeping on a platform bed and I can’t imagine ever changing back again.

Storage
Unfortunately I don’t live in a mansion, and I don’t have unlimited space, so I am always looking for storage solutions. I did consider one of the lower platform beds, but it seemed ridiculus to not make the most of the area under the bed with drawers, and I have not been disappointed. The drawers on this bed are on proper metal runners, so they are easy to pull in and out and deep enough for bulky winter clothes which can often seem to take up half your wardrobe. Since there are drawers on both sides of the bed, I use one set for clothes and the other for linen – perfect.

Look
I was a little worried about the wood used in this. It is made from composite wood and covered with a laminate – which I thought may look a little cheap – but actually it looks great; really stylish and much better than I had imagined from looking at the product online.

So, I actually managed to find a bed, within my budget, which is practical, comfortable and looks fabulous. Below is the link:
