Chosing a Single Bed

July 5, 2009 – 10:47 pm

While choosing a bed you may hear the terms single bed or twin bed and wonder what the difference is, truth is they are the same thing.  A bed that is build for a single person.  A single bed is often chosen when space is limited or price is a consideration.  It’s also nice for students or others that need to keep things light because they move around a lot and want to minimize the move.

Whatever your reason for wanting a single bed there are a few things you should probable know.  As in all beds the material of the mattress and box springs makes a difference both for comfort and longevity of the bed.  If the bed is for a child you may be less concerned about the quality and more concerned about price.  In contrast if it’s for you and you plan on using it for years as your main bed you may be more interested in a great night’s sleep.

When looking into new beds look for both style and functionality.  A nice headboard and footboard will add elegance to your bedroom and make your bed into more than just a place to sleep; it will turn it into a centerpiece of the room.    Not to mention there are so many choices to choose from that you will find something that fits your personality.

You can go to websites, such as www.bettersleep.org and learn more about what mattress is right for you.  You can even take a test that will guide you through questions such as; do you wake up in pain?  Have you slept better in the past in another bed than your own?  They use a term called EASE, which means evaluate your current mattress, arm yourself with knowledge, shop for the right select and ensure you get the most out of your mattress with quality care.  Buying a new twin mattress without understanding and studying what is best for you is not your best plan.

Study out the different types of mattresses, your body type and how well you sleep and wake rested in the morning.  You spend on average 1/3 of your life sleeping, so make sure you take the time to get the best possible sleep.

Along with your single bed consider adding a touch of class by having fitted bedroom wardrobes, you’ll enjoy it and it will make for a great talking piece with friends and family.
