Convenience of Using a Platform Bed Frame

Using a platform bed frame can be convenient and beneficial in many ways. It eliminates the need for a bed foundation or a box spring, which can typically contribute to certain health problems and discomfort in the long run. Platform bed frames may also help improve your sleep quality and reduce health problems associated with a dirty box spring, which tends to become a breeding ground for mold and dust mites.

The structure of the platform bed provides a more stable and flat surface for the mattress, whether futon or latex. You can achieve a firmer sleeping position when you place the mattress directly on the platform bed frame. This ultimately helps you sleep better.  

A flat platform can make the bed more stable, too, so it is recommended for heavy individuals who require a sturdy and safe bed as well as for sleepers who toss and turn a lot. Platform beds tend to be lower to the ground, making them more stable and ideal for shorter people. Memory foam mattresses suit platform bed frames, too, especially if you prefer a supportive and a firmer sleeping surface.

Most platform bed frames are designed with a modern and clean look to go well with most contemporary and modern interior designs. They do not usually require Bed skirts, so they are easier to maintain and can provide a more streamlined look to your bedroom. Hence, you can instantly upgrade the look of your space when you upgrade to a platform bed frame. And because it does not require other foundations and box springs, you only spend money on the new mattress and the frame.

There are platform bed frames with built-in storage drawers under the mattress area. This can help you save space and to keep some of your items organized in one place. It eliminates the need to buy storage containers or store items in cardboard boxes that tend to gather dust under the bed.
