The Best Bed Frames, According to Interior Designers
Mattress Cleaning in Malibu — Tracking down the right sleeping cushion can set aside time and thought. However, any individual who has looked for a bed frame to put said mattress on knows that process can take just as much effort. For such a large and visible piece of furniture, there are a few considerations to make. Do you prefer a minimalist platform bed frame, or an elegant tufted one? Something with a canopy, or an austere iron design? Bed frames now even come with built-in storage, but would under-bed or nightstands better suit your space? To help you find the bed frame of your dreams we tapped 15 interior designers for their picks and combed through our archives for any exceptional styles we’ve written about before. Many of the 23 bed frames on this list cost $1,000 or less, and nearly all of them are less than $1,500. To help you shop, we’ve organized the bed frames by their design — from platform to canopy to wingback to ones with built-in storage — and to keep things simple, we’ve listed starting prices for queen-size frames, though all come in other sizes.

They have the slimmest profile and require nothing more than a mattress, it is constructed from popular wood, and made in Athens, Georgia.
