We spend nearly 33% of our lives asleep and think nothing of it. Once we are unable to sleep, however, we quickly realize how precious sleep is. A good night's sleep begins with having the right bed and mattress. With Total Bedroom Furniture's massive array of bed types, styles, and sizes, you are sure to find the combination to suit you perfectly.

You can shop by kind, size, style, budget and brand! It has a huge range to help you find the perfect bed to suit your every style need and budget.
Beds come in a variety of styles, including platform, canopy, sleigh, classic, and more, available in metal, wood, and leather. Various styles like formal, traditional, contemporary, transitional, and country add even more diversity to the scene. Beds come in various sizes, including Twin, Full, Queen, King, and Cal King. In the US, Twin is also known as Single (38" x 75"), Full as Double (53" x 75"), Queen as Queen-size (60" x 80"), King as Eastern King (76" x 80") and Cal King as California King (72" x 84"). Cal King size beds, generally for tall people, are typically 12" wider than a Queen-size bed and 4" longer.
Choosing a bed type may seem like a daunting task at first, but with a little bit of knowledge, it can be quite simple. The adjustable bed is also called a semi-Fowler bed, as it can be adjusted to many different positions. For those with back problems, sleeping on an adjustable bed at a slight incline (e.g. 30" to 45") may be comfortable. This bed is particularly good for people suffering from the problem of varicose veins, hernias and other medical ailments. The canopy bed or four poster bed has four posts that are connected together by rods at the top to form a canopy. Gorgeous fabrics are usually draped over the entire bed. It is generally found in iron, wood, metal, and metal/wood. A canopy bed includes the headboard, footboard, canopy and bed rails. A classic bed is a traditional design or an antique bed that adds a new dimension to the bedroom and generally comes in materials such as iron, oak and leather. A leather bed lends sophistication to any bedroom decor. The platform bed has a raised, flat, hard surface that does not need a box spring and only a mattress will suffice. A metal bed is strong, sturdy, heavy and rustic. For instance, an iron bed is more durable and costs lesser than a wood bed. Open toe beds are unique iron beds where the footboard consists of decorative post or sets of posts in each corner and the foot of the bed is open. A wood bed is made entirely in solid wood, oak, mahogany and other woods. These also include a headboard and footboard. A sleigh bed comes in a sleigh-like form that gives a classic look to the bedroom. The headboard of this bed is larger than its footboard and both are curved with their tops rolling outwards. These beds lend a fabulous look to the bedroom. These styles can also be sourced through a discounted bed range that offers high quality build at affordable prices.
In wood, Total Bedroom Furniture offers you some fantastic, exclusive, classic Italian designs from the leaders in Europe for high-end, sophisticated and contemporary furnishing. There is also an innovative range in transitional furniture with products manufactured to the highest standard using top quality, 100% kiln dried tropical hardwoods and veneers for beds to ensure strength and longevity. The wood finishes are applied by hand producing a rich finish. The metal beds are manufactured from genuine or plated brass, cast zinc or aluminum, and steel or iron, are so solidly built that they can last generations. An indication of their quality is reflected in some iron beds that come with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty.
Beds also come in different styles to lend atmosphere. A contemporary style is characterized by cutting edge, innovative, modern, sometimes even futuristic design elements, with the basic rule that less is more and space is as important as areas filled with objects. A traditional style stands the test of time. It has a comforting feel with symmetry at the center to reflect calm and order. Rich fabrics, floral prints, and dark woods like cherry and mahogany are used to give the beds timeless style and class. A country style attaches itself to classic country designs with rustic pieces and hand-painted designs. A transitional style is not quite contemporary, not quite traditional but a forward-looking feel without being too trendy. Comfortable, yet classy.
Total Bedroom Furniture has directly partnered with over 45 leading brand names in furniture manufacturing (including Fashion Bed Group, Hillsdale Furniture, Iron Beds of America, Accent Specialty, Powell, Old Adirondack, and many more), to offer the best in quality and price.
