One of the areas of your home that you need to treat with utmost importance is your bedroom, as this is where you relax and recharge, and spend much of your time. Getting a good night’s sleep is essential to performing at your best, and if your furniture isn’t the best, then your sleep will suffer.
As much as you want the best bedroom set for yourself, it can be exhausting to pick one–which is why the experts at Fireside Furniture are here to help. In this article, we’re going to look at several things to consider when choosing a new bedroom set–whether you’re moving, or just looking to upgrade.
Space
The space of your bedroom is the first and most necessary thing to consider while choosing furniture, as you don’t want to get something that won’t fit. Consider how tall the ceiling is, the doorway, closets, or built-ins. Also, don’t forget to think about your light switches and electrical outlets — the last thing you want to do is get a great piece of furniture that covers up something important! Measure your room before you go out shopping, and keep those measurements handy as you walk around the Fireside Furniture showroom, looking at what’s available. Feel free to ask our friendly personnel to give you ideas on how to arrange your room as well!
Bed Size
Another thing you should look out for is the bed size — do you need a twin, full, queen, king? Do you want a twin bed that has extra storage, like this one? Make sure you have a bed large enough accommodate your height and create room to stretch your legs, but not something so big that it will dominate the room and not give you any place to walk. Also, consider if your potential bed headboard will be blocking your room’s ventilation due to its height. More so, bear in mind that getting a larger size bed furniture will require you to get a sizable mattress, too. Luckily, Fireside can help you with mattresses as well!
Style
Consider what kind of style you want in your bedroom: you might prefer a simple or traditional style bed, or perhaps a rustic farmhouse set. Whatever you choose, keep in mind that it should feel right in your home and match the rest of the style in your house.
Nightstands
Though little in size a good nightstand is essential to have in the bedroom. We advise you get one that is about the same height as the bed, such as this two-drawer rustic style nightstand. Here you can keep your phone, alarm clock, reading lamp, and a books at arm’s reach. Also, when considering the size of your room, keep in mind if you’ll have one or two nightstands.
Dressers
Although these days flat screens TVs are typically hung on walls, you still need a good old fashioned solid dresser and a chest of drawers to accommodate your clothing. When you’re looking at what’s available, consider if you want a taller, seven-drawer dresser, or a lower, wider one. Fireside Furniture has many bedroom sets that include both, such as the pier walled bedroom set featured here.
Furniture Durability
It should go without saying that with all the time you spend in your bedroom, your furniture should be strong and durable. You do not want to buy something and end up discarding it after few months because it had terrible quality. That’s why Fireside only sells high-quality, American-made bedroom sets with excellent craftsmanship, made from sturdy woods such as pine or oak. You’ll be using these pieces for years, so we want to make sure they’ll hold up long enough to pass on to your children!
