When it comes to beds, the super king size bed epitomises the ‘sweet spot’ of luxury beds and grandeur, offering ample space and comfort for restful nights and lazy mornings, but we understand that there are a variety of factors to consider prior to making your purchase. If you are contemplating making the leap from a double bed or king size bed to a super king size bed frame, this bed buying guide may help you solidify your decision: from whether you should opt for a super king size wooden bed frame or an upholstered king size bed, and whether you should opt for a classic or contemporary style, we’ve thought of it all so that you don’t have to! Read on to learn more about size, materials, prices, and even how to select the right mattress and bedding to accompany your new bed frame.
Dimensions:
Before you even begin to think about the style of bed or the price range, you will need to ensure your bedroom will fit a super king size bed frame, as well as whether the components will fit through your access spaces; we would hate to deliver the bed of your dreams, only to find that the headboard cannot be taken up the stairs! The dimensions of the bed itself will be available on our website, but our trusty Customer Experience team are always on hand via email or phone to help with any further questions you may have.
To make sure that the super king size bed that you choose will fit into your bedroom, we recommend taking the measurements of the bed and laying down objects to map out the space that will be filled by your new bed. It can be difficult to envisage the space it will take up, but we think this is the best way to see for yourself. If you are sizing up from a double or king-sized bed frame, you will also need a new luxury mattress to sit in your sumptuous super king-sized bed frame.
Materials:
Now that you have confirmed you can fit a super king size bed frame into your bedroom, you will need to consider the material you would like your new bed frame to be made from. Do you want to opt for a super king size wooden bed frame, or an upholstered one? Perhaps you want a rattan bed frame for increased comfort and durability?
When it comes to a super king size bed, wood is a wonderful choice to suit a vast selection of styles. A super king size wooden bed frame exudes sophistication and elegance, and we have several to choose from – from graceful, pale ash wood to rich and refined mahogany – we pride ourselves in giving the gift of choice when it comes to selecting your new super king size bed, whilst prioritising providing solid, hardwood bed frames built to last and become legacy “antiques of the future”.
