Questions about beds and mattresses answered & stories told.

The type of bed that offers the best support for your mattress depends on the type of mattress you have.

For a memory foam mattress, a platform bed or a slatted bed with closely spaced slats is ideal. This is because memory foam mattresses require a flat, even surface to provide proper support and prevent sagging. (Unless the slat system is made of very solid wood you need to make sure there are centre supports that reach the floor)

(If you're buying a mattress at the same time we suggest a latex model. Latex as an ingredient has all the benefits of memory foam with none of the drawbacks)

For an innerspring mattress, a box spring or foundation is recommended. These provide a stable base for the mattress and help to absorb shock and reduce wear and tear on the mattress.

For a hybrid mattress, which combines memory foam and innerspring technology, either a platform bed or a box spring/foundation is suitable.

Ultimately, it's important to consult the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific mattress to ensure you choose the right bed for optimal support and longevity.
