Buying Guide

The selection of a low profile wood bed frame involves more than just picking one out for your mattress to sit on and be done with the process. Instead, the selection of a low profile bed frame made from wood can serve as the focal point of your bedroom's decor. Because selecting the perfect bed frame can become overwhelming, we're offering the following information to help reduce your stress and make the process less confusing.

The style of a low profile wood bed frame lends itself to modern and contemporary design in that they feature clean and minimalistic designs. Because these beds don't have a boxed spring, the only requirement they have is purchasing a mattress and bedding. For those who are watching their budgets, this is an optimal choice. An important consideration to keep in mind, too, is that platform beds have extra firmness because they're sitting directly on a wood foundation.

Lending themselves to a modern and contemporary style interior, low profile beds are not limited to these decorating choices. There are many other options available including:

  • Vintage retro chic: this style features chrome legs, light wood finishes, and angular edges.
  • Traditional: featuring dark finishes, carved wood accents, and thick legs, it's possible to bring in classy style and sophistication with this bed frame.
  • Whimsical: why opt for a traditional bed frame when you're working with wood when you can select those featuring unique shapes, textures, and tones.

With its mattress, the standard bed height for a platform bed is approximately 18" from the floor. When you’re getting into a bed with a low profile bed frame, you have to consider the height. Yes, they’re much lower than a standard bed. Because they're so low to the floor, they're not optimal for tall people.

For those who are looking to create a minimalist design in their bedroom, this is the optimal choice. Because low-profile platform beds lack storage space underneath, they’re a blessing in disguise. Not only does this bed frame design prevent the build-up of clutter in bedrooms, but they force users to purge unwanted or unneeded items from their rooms. Here are some additional reasons why they’re beneficial:

  • They create a fresh, modern aesthetic in the bedroom.
  • For those who have a fear of falling out of their beds, their low height prevents injuries.
  • You'll receive a mini workout getting in and out of the bed because you have to squat down and up.
  • There's no need to purchase a bed skirt or box spring, which creates a sleeker design.

Selecting a low profile wood bed frame ensures optimal durability, mainly when it’s constructed from hardwoods. The most common hardwoods include maple, walnut, and cherry. Maintaining these bed frames are also a snap because, instead of using harsh chemicals or waxes, they only require routine dusting and wiping down with a damp cloth.
