Quality Manufacturing, Made in the U.S.A.Even a bed with a medium-high mattress can do double duty for storage. Mattress heights -- or depths -- can vary by as much as 10 inches or more. Coupled with the box spring and side-board height of the bedstead, mattress heights can make a big difference both to the look of your bed, and in terms of comfort and providing under-bed storage.
Determining a mattress height begins with an examination of the bedroom's design and any unique requirements you may have in mind for the bed. Preferences Begin with your vision for the bedroom. Whether chrome-and-mirrors modern or formal Tudor, sizing your bed height can help to create the right look. Early American, primitive or traditional design schemes lend themselves to high-mattress beds. The more modernistic the decorating theme, the lower the mattress height. Other concerns that may enter into purchasing decisions are back or knee problems for getting in an out of bed, toddlers who might roll off the bed, comfort while sleeping and storage needs. Low and Sleek Low, sleek beds fit well in modern bedrooms. Beginning with a bed foundation only a few inches above the floor then building on this foundation with a marginal-depth mattress ensures a contemporary silhouette. Hollywood bed frames are an ideal match for low-line beds. Should you be interested in a high-depth mattress with a low contour, one option is to alter the bed frame by attaching a 3/4-inch plywood base, eliminating the need for the box spring;
the mattress can lie directly on the plywood platform, assuring a low-profile bed in spite of the generous mattress height. If under-bed storage is a priority, consider buying, building or having built a custom wooden frame with under-the-bed drawers. When appraising mattress height for a modern bedroom style, keep the finished bed mattress height at about 18 inches or less. Arts and Crafts Mid-Height Art Nouveau, Scandinavian contemporary, humble Shaker, early prairie and Mission -- or arts and crafts -- room styles sport mid-height beds with a maximum top-mattress height of 20 to 25 inches. Play around with a wide variety of mattress heights by customizing the bed frame to accommodate the finished sleeping height. Mid-height beds with appropriately sized mattresses generally have more storage room underneath the bed frame than low-line beds. While mid-height beds may be of more concern for little ones, they can be easier on body parts if you contend with arthritic knees or frequent trips to the bathroom during the night.
High for a Lot of Reasons Early American bed mattresses often had a height of 25 inches or more to provide room for trundles. Colonial, Queen Anne, Tudor, country chic and Jacobean room decor are good matches for beds with high mattresses. Such bedding styles allow for storage, are easiest on bad backs in terms of getting in and out of the bed and when making the bed. A comfortable total-bed maximum height is 33 inches. Any higher becomes problematic for utilizing the bed. A range of 30 to 32 inches for sleeping height makes a visually attractive design statement, supports a traditional theme as well as allows under-bed storage. A high-bed strategy is the largest option for mattress heights. Even if you have a tried-and-true mattress that is comfortable but not deep enough to meet an overall high-bed dimension, you can add a 4-inch foam-topper mattress.
