Upholstered beds

The benefits of an upholstered bed frame

An upholstered bed frame adds an extra bit of style and decadence to your bedroom, though the designs can come in many forms. Upholstered bed frames can be subtle, but they can also help make a statement in a master bedroom. It all comes down to what style you choose and what material and colour you pick.

Upholstered beds offer extra storage space

Some of the upholstered beds you’ll find feature storage platforms with drawers. With this built-in storage, you can easily stow away toys, towels, bed linens or whatever else you want, keeping them out of sight but close at hand. This also clears up floor space and adds a sense of openness to the room.

Upholstered bed frames come in different sizes

IKEA upholstered bed frames are available in many different sizes. Consider a double bed if you're looking for a bed to share with your partner. You can also find upholstered beds in twin sizes which are perfect for non-active solo sleepers, and a good choice for children too.

Pick an upholstered bed that fits your room

When looking for the perfect upholstered bed frame, you have a variety of colours and shades to choose from, from neutral to more vibrant tones. A good way to think about it is to try picking a colour that suits the overall palette of the bedroom. If you can’t find a perfectly matching upholstered bed, then you can never go wrong with a simple white bed or black bed.

How to spice up your upholstery bed frame

These beds can come in a variety of colours and styles. They can also be paired with a bunch of different mattress types. When you’ve found the right upholstery bed frame, complete it with a comfortable mattress and fluffy pillows and comforters.

What mattress works best with an upholstered bed frame?

Upholstered beds work with all kinds of mattresses, as long as the size fits the frame. Choose a firm mattress or medium firm mattress if you want some extra support, or go for a soft mattress if you’re a side-sleeper or want a little less firmness in your cushioning. You might even choose to add a waterproof mattress if the upholstered bed is for your children or the elderly.

What colours does an IKEA upholstered bed come in?

An IKEA upholstered bed frame can come in many different colours to match your personal style. Go for a grey bed frame or beige bed frame with upholstery if you want a more subtle, subdued appearance. For a bit of playfulness and classic style, you can also try out a pink bed frame. Or if you want a soothing splash of colour, consider a blue bed frame or green bed frame to add a calming feeling to your room.
