Product Information

It’s the moisture that gets trapped – keeping your mattress directly on the floor for a long time with accumulated moisture can support the growth of mold and bad smells. For example, the Japanese have traditionally used futons as beds that they place directly on the floor, and they regularly hang them outside to dry. Coil support cores are still very common and are mainly found in innerspring and hybrid mattresses. They are typically made of steel, which may be tempered for added strength and durability. Most mattresses made today fall into one of four categories: Platform types are more common because they are cheaper. Wooden frames with more style and large headboards and/or footboards cost much more and use more expensive types of wood.

The design of a slatted foundation also provides benefits comparable to a bunkie board. The planks or beams connecting the frame create a solid surface which prevents the mattress from slipping out of place. Much like bunkie boards and box springs, slatted foundations are fairly cheap and easy to set up. Offset Coils: Offset coils also use hourglass-shaped steel coils that are joined together with helical wires. However, offset coils differ in that they are squared off around the top and, sometimes, the bottom edges. This means that the connection to the neighboring coil happens along a flat line, allowing the coils to provide slightly more localized contouring without sacrificing support. Turning your mattress is important as it ensures the fillings are evenly distributed. It can help keep it firmer for longer and keep your mattress in good condition.

Box springs are the classic supports used for mattresses. Box springs have been around since the advent of the modern mattress and are designed to fit classic mattress specifications. The function of a box spring is tied to the history of modern mattresses and still offers decent support for most mattress types. The platform base effectively accomplishes the same uses of a box spring and slatted foundation, offering added height and mattress support at once Wooden frames are similar to metal bed frames in that they might require a box spring or a foundation, but the type you’ll most commonly find out there is the wooden platform bed. Airbeds may be controlled through manual settings, or through remote or app-based controls which offer the opportunity to adjust the firmness of the bed in real time. You can place a bunkie board on top of a box spring to adapt it for a foam mattress. Alternatively, you can place it directly on the floor, especially the slatted bunkie board because it will allow for some air circulation (floor mattresses tend to collect moisture and need to be aired out frequently). Also, solid bunkie boards decrease the airflow – just to bear in mind.

Cover: Most mattresses come with a fabric cover, often featuring cotton, polyester, Tencel, or blended fabrics. The cover contributes to the mattress’ breathability and feel, and it may incorporate quilted layers of foam or fibers for added cushioning. Some covers are removable and machine-washable for easier care. What look are you going for? Minimalist, fancy, modern, quaint? A simple platform bed can give you a minimalistic look, while an engraved wooden frame can look much older than it really is. Bed frames can greatly vary in style. Durability Waterbeds can be either hard-sided or soft-sided. Hard-sided waterbeds are supported by a sturdy frame and platform, made of wood or another durable material. Soft-sided waterbeds feature foam and fabric frames and require a separate sturdy foundation to rest upon, which can be a costly investment.
