This is the type of base you need according to your bed.

Choosing a type of bed base should be as careful and studied as we do when we go to buy a new bed. And that is, if the bed is important because it supports us, a bed base is important because it supports us.

In addition, depending on the type of base we choose, it will directly affect our mattress, increasing its advantages or highlighting its disadvantages. Therefore, finding the right base for your bed is very important so that you can get the most out of your mattress and rest properly.

And that's what we're going to see now: what exists and which one is best for which bed.

We start with the most popular option:

Bed base

Flexible wooden slatted bed base

The mattress is one of the most popular bed bases both for its price and for its versatility since it is usually cheaper, since among the different models available we can find one that fits our mattress, for example if we have a spring mattress.

If we have a traditional spring mattress and not the pocket springs we will see later, a flexible wooden slatted mattress is a good bed base for it.

Due to the nature of spring mattresses, they tend to sag and deform if they do not have firm but flexible support underneath.

Bed bases are made of flexible wooden slats, usually beech, and absorb the shock of the innerspring bed's mattress.

Therefore, although slatted beds are suitable for spring beds, it is very important to pay attention to the quality and quantity of the slats.

As they say on the internet Mejorcolchon.net specialized in bed bases, the more sheets the better, since they offer more support over the entire surface of the bed. In addition, if they are made of wood, the better, because they are flexible and more durable, although a little more expensive.

There is another type of mattress that can benefit from latex mattresses: latex mattresses.

If our mattress is made of latex, a flat, fixed slatted base would be a great option as it provides a more stable base than flexible bed bases.

Fixed and flat slatted bed base

If the base is not solid and flat, the mattress “takes shape”, that is, as I said, a fixed and flat slatted base, like the ones we see above these lines, is suitable for a latex mattress.

In addition, the bed base allows the bed to breathe thanks to the gaps between the wooden sheets that form the base on which the bed sits.

Something perfect for latex mattresses since we allow them to breathe better when resting on a flat and solid surface; And that is, if our bed base does not have ventilation, it is better not to use a latex mattress in it, since as I said they must be able to sweat.

There are other types of bases in which the latex mattress also fits perfectly and the following model is what we will see:

Upholstered bed bases

Upholstered bed base

Upholstered bed bases are another one of the most popular and most demanded alternatives when choosing a bed base, because they can accept practically any mattress if the base is of good quality.

This type of bed base has a smooth upholstered wooden top panel that makes the bed base completely smooth and even.

Therefore, unlike fixed or flexible slatted bases, it offers us a firmer and more solid support, emphasizing the firmness and characteristics of the bed.

In addition, the bed does not “take shape” because there is no space between the sheets and a single board covers the entire surface.

In addition, nowadays this type of bed base is usually upholstered with breathable fabrics to eliminate humidity and have ventilation systems so that humidity does not stick to the mattress, especially when the mattresses are made of latex.

Therefore, an upholstered base is perfect for all types of mattresses, especially pocket spring mattresses or memory foam mattresses.

Also for latex mattresses, as I said at the beginning of this point, there is air circulation only as long as the base cover is perforated.

Breathable bed base with ventilation system

If the bed does not have a ventilation system at its base, you should not put a latex mattress on it because, as we have seen, these need to be ventilated and sweated.

And within this same category of upholstered beds, we find another type of base, or rather structure:

Sofas

Fixed castor bed base

A sofa, whether fixed or folding, is an upholstered bed base, but with a more elaborate design and finish from an aesthetic point of view. Regarding folding sofas, they also offer us valuable storage space.

However, when it comes to mattresses, which is the subject that concerns us in this article, divans generally have the same base as the upholstered base, although we can also find them with slatted bases.

In other words, it is a wooden panel covered with breathable fabric, filled with fiber and has ventilation systems for mattresses that require it, such as latex.

Folding sofa with upholstered bed base

Therefore, a folding or fixed sofa is perfect for any bed, especially those with pocket springs and memory foam, as well as those made of latex, as long as they have ventilation systems.

As you can see, the options are limited, but if you choose the right type of base for your bed, you will increase its benefits and lifespan. So to summarize:

• If you have a traditional spring mattress, a good quality, flexible wooden slatted base is perfect.
• If you have a latex mattress, you can use a solid quality wooden slatted base or bed base as long as it has a ventilation system.
• If you have a pocket spring mattress, a bed frame is the best option.
• If you have a memory foam mattress, bed bases are also the best option.
