Where can you buy cheap bedroom sets?

Q. I want to buy a new white bedroom set.. either online or in stores.. where would i be able to find cheap but cute bedroom sets?
Thanks

A. 4pc Queen Size Platform Bedroom Set in Mahogany Finish is a nice dark wood with a shiny polish coating. The bed was very easy to put together and everything is relatively lightweight. The dresser is the heaviest piece at 116 lbs. The dresser itself is not very deep so is perfect for our smaller bedroom. So far we're very happy with this purchase and will think about buying the taller dresser that is sold separately later on. I gave it four stars because the quality does not seem as high and the durability not as great as something you might find at a pricier furniture store, but for what we needed and for the price this was a great buy.


What is the origin of the words kingsize and queensize?
Q.

A. To better appreciate the minimal king size platform beds; consider a brief history of its evolution, and that of its American cousin, the mysterious box spring.

The Egyptian pharaohs of 3500 B.C. were the first known people to sleep on dedicated pieces of elevated furniture. Before that time, king size platform beds were essentially portable � all-too-organic constructions of straw, leaves, fleece, or animal skins spread out on the hard ground. In Europe, king size loft beds weren�t common until the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and seventeenth centuries; stationary but adjustable, their king size platform bedroom sets and wooden frames held grids of ropes that could be tightened as needed.

Queen Mattress Dimensions Around the World?


� Americas, New Zealand, and Australia - queen size standard is 60x80 inches

� Latin America and Continental Europe - queen size is 63x79 inches

� Norway - queen size is equal to 2 single or twin mattresses at 60x79 inches

� United Kingdom and Ireland - queen size mattresses are also called standard doubles and are 60x78 inches

A California queen, most often found in the U.S., is 60 inches by 84 inches, offering more length for taller individuals. Simmons, a mattress manufacturer in the U.S., makes an Olympic/Expanded Queen size bed that is 66x80 inches. It's primarily a novelty bed.

King size platform beds suspended sleepers over a cushion of air, which was far warmer than a cold, damp floor. It kept floor dust off the king size bedroom furniture, bed linens and discouraged pets and critters from nesting. Height also made it easier to change bed linens and climb in and out of bed.

The earliest modern king size beds mattresses were simple sacks of straw or down, and eventually of cotton and wool. But in 1871, industry spawned the innerspring mattress, a bouncy entity filled with a field of vertical steel coils; its companion, the box spring, was invented soon afterward.

The box spring literally is a box: a wood frame king size platform beds with drawers holding a series of heavy steel coils, upholstered with an outer layer of foam and fabric. Its purpose is simple: to ventilate the king size platform beds and lift it to a convenient height. Manufacturers claim that it also prolongs the king size leather platform beds life by absorbing some of the sleepers� weight and movement, and they insist that each king size platform storage beds be supported by its companion box spring and no other. If you buy king or queen size platform beds without its box spring, its warranty is invalidated.

About how much does a queen mattress set cost? never bought mattress before, thank you in advance?
Q. i got my bedroom set about 12 yrs ago, its still really nice but i want a new mattress set, im not into brands, just want the average mattress, someone is selling a queen set for 350 and since ive never bought mattress before i don't know if im getting ripped off. thank you so much in advance

A. A good one will cost several hundreds if you are very very savvy, to $1000 and up. Anything less, and I would look verrry carefully at it, you could regret it quickly as the quality is likely to be poor.

Go to your library and look up Consumer Reports Magazine back issues, look for their past mattress buying advice article. They tell what makes up a good mattress, usually higher coil count =more firmness. Comfort is a personal preference.

If you need just a mattress (and not a set), or don't care that they match, you can find those in mis-match sales or end of season sales (they change the fabric).

I am not a fan of foam mattresses, pillow tops, or any kind of anything padded extra, as you can add more but you can't remove it if it is part of the mattress, something I regret with the tempurpedic-foam mattress I have and hate.

I got this bed frame with storage underneath for my teen's mattress, and it holds it at the height of a normal bed-with-box-spring. It is very firm, and can make up for a poor quality mattress because it is SO firm, but you may not want that as it sounds like you already have a bed frame? I include info on it because some folks use this frame with a latex foam mattress (all foam like sleep number/ temperpedic, etc.) and say a platform like this is all they need (no boxspring). Read the reviews for more info from folks who have that type of foam mattress. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Slumber1-Bed-Frame-Twin-Full/10151232
