71King size beds are for everyone, not just two people. Latest research has shown that the bigger your bed, the better night’s sleep you can potentially have, sleep experts regularly exert that people should buy as large a bed as they can in order to ensure a comfortable sleep. But there are many different aspects of buying a bed which need to be considered, in this article I’m going to explain exactly how to make adequate measurements to see if your room could facilitate a bed of this size, how to go about choosing a king size bed, all of the additional accessories that you will require and finally suggest a few places to buy these beds from.
The dimensions of a king size bed
The first thing you need to do before even stepping foot in a home
retail store is to take the right measurements to see if you can even
feasibly use a king size bed. Generally speaking an average bed of this
size will be around 17” x 80”, you need to measure your floor space and
your surrounding furniture to see if you can comfortably accommodate
such as large bed. It’s important to note that it’s not the floor space
alone which will determine whether you have enough space, but the shape
of the room and the furniture too. You’re going to have to make a
judgement call and decide whether you can feasibly place a 17” x 80” bed
in your room.
Are your windows and doors frames big enough?
Also be sure to measure you windows and doors to see they would be able
to facilitate you moving a mattress of this size through them (readers
should note that if you can’t fit a king size through your door or
window frames you can always buy a bed which comes in several different
parts and assemble it in the room).
Support is essential
When buying any bed the firmness of the mattress is key to comfort and
avoiding any aches and pains caused by sleeping on it. Regardless of
whether or not you opt for a foam king size mattress or a spring coil
one it is essential that it offers enough support for you. For this
reason I always recommend going into a store and buying a mattress you
can physically touch and even lie on, it’s the only sure fire way to
ensure that you make the right purchase. This next video is going to
show you how to go about choosing a mattress and the types that are
available to you.
Choosing a king size mattress
Cost of king size beds
There’s a huge gulf in price between king size beds, you can pay
anywhere between $1,200 and $4,500 for a good quality product. Having
said that paying more than $2,500 isn’t really necessary, you can
purchase a perfectly decent king size bed for $2,000. Relatively
speaking these beds are $300-$400 more than a Queen size bed, it’s
always good to have a point of reference when dealing with expensive
products and determining whether or not you’re getting a good deal. For
those of you who are a little wary of spending so much money on a bed it
pays to bear in mind that the quality of your mattress can have a huge
impact on the quality of your sleep which in turn impacts your moods and
energy levels in your daily life. Many people would consider this
reason enough to warrant spending a significant sum of money on a bed.
Spend as much on the mattress as you do the bed
If you opt to buy a bed and king size mattress separately you should
expect to pay the same amount of money on the mattress as you do frame.
All of the benefits incurred by using a king size bed will go out the
window if you fail to purchase an adequate mattress of sufficient
quality to support you whilst you’re sleeping.
Suppliers of King Size Beds
Once you’ve decided on the types of bed you want you have to work out
where to purchase it from, as I mentioned before I always recommend you
try beds out in store first, but if you’ve already done so and would
like to buy it online to save a little cash there are a few places you
can go. Readers should note that prices can vary dramatically when shipping and taxes are added to products so it pays to be mindful of the total amount due before you commit to buying anything.
Bed Accessories: Quilts and Duvets
After you’ve decided upon the bed you want you’ll also need to give some
attention to the accessories you will need. You can purchase king size
quilts from Qulitzone.com from anywhere between $100 and $450,
alternatively you could go down the cheaper route of buying from a
larger retailer such as Amazon.com, most of their king size duvet covers
range between $70 and $160.
Overstock.com
Overstock.com have an impressive collection of around 100 king size
beds, their products come in a selection of different prices ranges, the
cheapest coming in at around $300 whilst the most expensive fall at
around the $2500 plus mark. Beware that none of the initial prices
quoted include shipping fees and taxes, so be prepared to pay
significantly more than what is stated.
Bedworld.net
Bedworld.net offers a huge collection of hundreds of different beds, if
you want freedom of choice this should be your first shop. Not only does
this supplier offer great value at discount prices but they also offer
you the opportunity to buy either the bed frame by itself or the frame
