How to Choose the Right Bed Base

When buying a bed base online, here's what to keep in mind before you hit add to cart:

Height check - Do you love the lofty, climb up to bed feel? Or something closer to the ground for a sleek, modern feel?

Storage smarts - Drawer or gas-lift base designs are a modern marvel that let you store spare linen, shoes, or cute keepsakes within concealed cavities. Not fussed? Go for a clean, no-storage frame.

Perfect match - Synchronise the size! Your double bed base should match your double bed mattress.

Material matters - Slats are breathable and springy, ensembles bring sturdy polish, and adjustable bases are next-level luxury.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a bed base and a bed frame?

A double bed frame is the combination of a headboard and base and has a bit of pizazz. They come in a range of styles and designs and can be the centrepiece for a bedroom. A bed base is the sturdy lower section of a bed, normally made from super-sturdy timber and upholstery to provide solid support, lift and prevent your mattress from sagging.

Can I use a new mattress with my existing base?

You can as long as your existing base isn’t on its last legs. A solid, supportive base will happily hold a brand-new mattress. But if yours is saggy, squeaky or wobbly, it could mess with your mattress mojo.

What size bed bases are available?

We’ve got a bed base for everybody and every bedroom. Single, king-single, double bed base, queen or king. Whatever your sleep size, there’s a bed base to match. 

Do I need a specific base for a memory foam mattress?

Memory foam is a little fussy. It likes solid, stable support, but also works well with adjustable designs, given its natural tilting and flexing prowess. A slatted base is fine too, as long as the slats aren’t too wide apart.

How much should I spend on a bed base?

There’s no magic dollar figure for how much you should spend on a double mattress bed base, but the rule of thumb is to buy the best quality base you can afford.
