Bed bases

What is a bed base?

The bed base is the bottom part of the bed and serves as a base for the mattress. It plays a crucial role in both comfort and support, as it affects how the mattress feels and functions.

There are several different types of bed bases – for example, slatted bases, springy slatted bases, adjustable bases and fixed wooden frames. The choice of bed base can make a big difference to your sleep quality and should be adjusted to both body weight, sleeping style and mattress type.

A springy slatted base, for example, can provide better pressure relief and compliance, while a fixed base is suitable for those who want a stable and firm base. Adjustable bed bases are also an excellent option for those who want to be able to raise and lower the head or foot end as needed.
