When buying resting equipment, you have to take into account different elements. The same mattress and the support where it is supported must be in tune.
We offer some tips to have the best rest team. The base contributes 30% of the firmness or adaptability to a set of rest, the remaining 70% makes the mattress, so it is very important the good choice of base.
What are the different supports?
There are several structures on which to place a mattress. All have their advantages and may be suitable for us, depending on our preferences and needs.
The most basic is an upholstered base consisting of a rigid structure on which rests on 4 or 6 legs. In addition, there are upholstered bases that transpire and adapt to all types of mattresses, bases upholstered with springs that increase the adaptability of the mattress and folding bases to be able to store all kinds of belongings.
The canapés have short legs and a higher height in their structure. They can be fixed or folding. The first gives an oriental style to the bedroom, while the folding canapés provide more than just rest: storage. Its structure is similar to a horizontal cabinet, where items can be stored when the cabinets in the house are not enough. There are varieties of canapés with the rigid, breathable and laminated top.
The mattress is perhaps the most traditional structure. It is composed of a metal frame, sheets, and legs. The sheets, where the mattress supports, can be made of wood or other materials. For many years, the spring base was the most used base, nowadays is obsolete and can only be seen in some fields when used as fencing.
Do all the bases stand for any mattress?
A foam or viscoelastic mattress should have a breathable base, whether a bed base, upholstered base or canape. If we have a latex mattress, it is best to rest on wooden slats to improve ventilation. Spring mattresses adapt to all structures, except articulated ones. For this type of mattress, there are special mattresses, much more flexible.
It is advisable to choose a mattress before deciding the base.
What is the best base for your cheap bed?
The answer will depend on what each one looks for in their rest team. If flexibility is sought, a wooden bed frame is suitable, which favors the adaptability of the mattress.
