King size beds are the pinnacle in luxurious sleeping; it makes a statement and sets the tone for the rest of the master suite. Purchasing a king bed takes time and consideration and should result in a purchase that fits your needs, your style and your budget. It will often require plenty of research before coming to a conclusion about the bed of your dreams. The internet can help in pricing various brands and obtaining reviews from individuals who have purchased the same, if not similar products that you’reinterested in.
Standard King Beds, also known as Eastern King, measure 76” wide and 80” long which make it a near perfect square while the California King Bed, also known as a Western King, measures 76” wide but 84” long. There are several factors to consider when choosing the perfect king bed for your room. The primary question is whether you have enough space for a king size bed plus any surrounding furniture you may want to add. You must also consider what type and style of bed you desire out of a king size bed. By getting an idea of your available options you can choose a bed that is perfect for your tastes and your home.
King size beds, like all beds, consist of several types: platform, four poster, slat, panel, sleigh, storage and canopy. These options signify the different bed structures which can be purchased; you can use this category to help narrow down your options, depending upon what caters to your style and needs.Platform beds generally sit closer to the floor and are meant to be used with mattresses only, while panel and storage beds can sit either high or low. Storage beds, as the name suggests, have a dual purpose as a sleeping space and a storage location which can come in handy when you’re working with limited space but you just have to have that king size bed.
Four Poster beds and Canopy beds offer a more traditional styling and often times a canopy bed will convert to a four poster bed by removing the canopy frame. Slat Beds generally refers to a bed with a built-in frame that does not require the use of box springs. This term is also used to describe the head boards and foot boards of beds that typically have slats running vertically. Sleigh beds usually have some design feature in the head board or foot board that is reminiscent of a sleigh or an outward curve. King size beds also come in a variety of styles such as Contemporary, Rustic, Cottage, Traditional,Transitional and many more; do your research to discover which king bed best suits your style.
On average, one person will have approximately 38” of sleeping space on a Standard King Bed whilethe California King Bed offers 36”; although the standard offers more room, both offer a significant amount of wiggle room in general. As previously mentioned, the California King Bed has the greatest length which would make this a better option for those taller individuals who cannot be accommodated by the standard queen or king. Standard King Beds are generally more popular which means greater accessibility in stores than its counterpart, the California King Bed. This also means that bedding is easier to find for the Standard King over the California King Bed.
The major set back of owning either a Standard King or California King is the cumbersome weight and dimensions if you’re moving to a new location. Individuals who purchase king beds should consider the possible issues that can arise during the moving process, such as narrow staircases or doorways and also the available space in the room itself. Another factor you should consider is the cost of sheets; because these beds require the most fabric, they are the most expensive among bedding sets. Taking accurate measurements of your bed is another tip king size bed owners should consider. Some bedding manufacturers have changed their size classification for a Standard King Bed so pay more attention to the measurements on the label than the name itself.
