Box spring beds have developed into a real trend product in recent years. They promise improved sleeping comfort, a pleasant night's sleep and a more refreshed wake up in the morning. The beds also impress with their appearance. They are significantly higher than a normal bed and consist of several layers that build on each other. Most customers have often come across box spring beds in hotels. This type of bed has been used for some time because box spring beds meet the sleeping needs of most people. However, if you want to set up a box spring bed in your own bedroom, you should research the matter intensively before purchasing.
How a box spring bed is put together
In order to find the right bed, it is first important to know the basic features of a box spring bed. A classic box spring bed consists of three elements that influence each other and ultimately ensure comfort. At the bottom of the box spring bed is the so-called “box”. There is a mattress on top of it, which in turn is covered by a topper. Of course, there is also a frame and a bed all aroundHeadboard.
The box underneath is usually a stable wooden construction with a suspension on the inside. Manufacturers have the choice of using either Bonell springs or barrel pocket springs. This suspension ensures that the lying surface of the bed can not only give way in the middle of the mattress, but also remains elastic and flexible at the edges. The mattress that rests on the box can hardly be distinguished from ordinary mattresses. Here too, the choice remains between barrel pocket springs and Bonell springs, but mattresses with cold foam or visco foam can also be found on the market. If you are unsure about the type of mattress, you should try it out in a mattress studio if possible.
The topper as the top layer is not unimportant, although in America there are certainly beds without this thin layer. By choosing the right topper, buyers can once again influence how comfortable they are in bed. Whether the topper is made of visco foam, cold foam or latex again depends on personal preference. Another advantage of the topper is that it protects the mattress of the box spring bed and thus increases its lifespan. Basically, people who like to lie down a little harder can be recommended a topper made of cold foam, whereas visco foam allows for a softer lying feeling.
Real box spring bed or fake?
Many bed manufacturers have long recognized the trend and want to make as much profit as possible from it. This can be risky for the customer because not every bed that looks like such a bed also corresponds to the characteristics of this type of bed. So it often happens that there is no suspension to be found in the box already mentioned. The supposed box spring bed cannot then offer as flexible a lying surface as the customer actually wants. It is therefore always advisable to take a look at the features of the desired bed.

Whether Bonell or barrel pocket springs are more advantageous in bed is a much-discussed question. Buyers should therefore generally look into the special features of both variants before deciding on a bed. While Bonell springs yield in a surface-elastic manner, barrel pocket springs ensure point-elastic flexibility of the lying surface,as Morgenweb reports. People with a higher body weight in particular can benefit from barrel pocket springs, as the body does not sink in too deeply. However, for fairly light people whose scales do not show more than a maximum of ninety kilos, equipment with Bonell springs is also quite suitable.
The need forrestful and healthy sleepall people have equally. However, some people have problems with this,also shows statistics. In Germany alone, almost 25 percent of people complain about sleep disorders and eleven percent do not feel sufficiently recovered after a night's sleep. Even if the bedroom furnishings, general lifestyle and external circumstances influence the quality of sleep, the bed is probably the most central point. If you don't sleep well, you should first take a closer look at your sleeping place and replace it if necessary.
If you are choosing a new box spring bed anyway, the degree of hardness is an important criterion for comfortable sleep. Basically, it is divided into five different levels, which are selected depending on body weight.
• Hardness level 1: up to 60 kg
• Hardness level 2: 60 to 80 kg
• Hardness level 3: 80 to 110 kg
• Hardness level 4: 110 to 140 kg
• Hardness level 5: more than 140 kg
When choosing a mattress, customers should therefore pay close attention to the appropriate level of hardness. It is it that influences the way the body sinks at night, which ideally allows the shoulders, hips and spine to be as relaxed as possible. However, a mattress with the wrong level of hardness causes the spine to bend, which can lead to tension, headaches and sleep disorders.
Finally, the visual design of the bed is also an important point when choosing. After all, it shouldtrendy bedroom furnishingssupport and not counteract it. It's a good thing that box spring beds are now available in a fairly large selection of colors and materials. From leather surfaces to fabric to beds with high-gloss, metal or wooden details, practically anything is possible. However, it is not just the visual appearance that should be crucial, but also the ease of care of the materials. A pure white bed is very trendy, but after a few months of use it is no longer convincing. If you still want to fulfill your dream of a white box spring bed, you should be particularly careful and clean the surfaces regularly.
