Classification of beds by type of construction - what are they?
There are different types of beds. First of all, they differ in type of construction into:
- built-in, i.e. retractable into another piece of furniture;
- not built-in, i.e. the bed always remains in one place.
Built-in beds can be divided into:
- folding, they can rise to the wall, most often they are hidden behind false doors or put away in a real closet or chest of drawers, there are models with a vertical or horizontal lifting mechanism;
- bed built into the podium. For them, a podium is built in the room where the bed is hidden; if necessary, it can be pulled out;
- transformer, such furniture is arranged according to the matryoshka principle - under the bed, instead of linen drawers, another sleeping place is hidden.
Among the non-built-in beds there are:
- folding beds - a sleeping place that folds out if necessary; when folded, it takes up little space and is easy to put away;
- a sofa is a piece of furniture that can be folded out for sleeping or transformed into a comfortable seat for several people;
- an ottoman is a wide sofa without a back or with removable pillows;
- classic models with legs, without backs and sides, but with a headboard and footboard. The last element is not always present.
Another sign of how beds are distinguished is their hardness. The term does not refer to the sleeping place itself, but to the frame. There are 3 types:
- rigid, i.e., without filler on the frame, without upholstery or sheathing;
- wrapped - covered with filler and upholstery;
- soft - with a thick layer of filler on the frame.
The choice of frame type will not affect the quality of sleep. It all depends on the personal preferences of the owner.

Bed divisions by age group
Types of beds according to the age of the sleepers: adults, teenagers, children and cradles for newborns. They differ primarily in size, as well as in some design features.
Cradles are the smallest in size. They can be round, oval, rectangular. They reach 100-120 cm in length. Some models are equipped with a swing mechanism. They are usually used for babies under six months of age.
For ages from 6 months to 2 years, cribs-playpens are used, that is, with high lattice sides so that the child can stand up independently, but does not fall out or get out of his place. The length of such beds is 120-130 cm.
Playpens are no longer suitable for preschoolers. The kids move to separate sleeping places. The size of a bed for a preschooler is 80x140-160 cm. Often the beds are designed in the form of cars, decorated with favorite cartoon characters, etc.
The bed size for a primary school student is 80-90 cm wide, up to 180 cm long. A popular option at this age is a loft bed, that is, there is a bed on one floor, and a play and work area is equipped on the other.
Teenagers can sleep on both adult beds (up to 220 cm in length) and teenage beds (up to 190 cm). Both options are 90 cm wide. Here you need to focus on the child’s growth, the rate of its increase, as well as the tastes of the future owner.

Types of frames - materials of execution
The frame can be made of different materials. Most often used:
- chipboard, fiberboard or MDF boards. They are light, practical, easy to use. However, they are considered not environmentally friendly, because synthetic glue is used in their manufacture. Products may vaporize harmful compounds. Also, some board materials are afraid of water;
- wood is considered the most environmentally friendly material, absolutely safe for humans. Solid wood looks stylish and looks good in any bedroom;
- a metal frame is one of the most “indestructible” things. It is advisable that it be treated with a composition that prevents corrosion. Then the bed will last for decades. However, the weight of the finished product will be large;
- combination of materials. For example, for those parts that bear the main load, wood or metal is used, and for the headboard, a decorative MDF board or a forged patterned lattice is used.
There are also fixed and detachable frames. In the first case, the bed cannot be disassembled; in the second, this can be done completely (disconnect the headboard, footboard, sides) or partially (for example, only the headboard is removed).

Types of mattress bases
There are also differences in the bases on which mattresses are placed. Bottoms can be of 2 types:
- solid;
- lattice.
The solid base consists of boards, plywood or chipboard that lie at the bottom of the box. Due to such a base, air will not circulate in the mattress, which reduces sleep hygiene. Also, a solid base does not have a shock-absorbing effect, which is why spring mattresses can quickly fail.
The bottom grid is assembled from lamellas. They are elastic and take on part of the shock-absorbing load. They also allow air to circulate inside the mattress, which makes sleep more comfortable. However, springless mattresses can become deformed over time.

Headboard and footboard of beds
The headboard is an important part of the bed because it prevents the pillow from sliding off during sleep. There are 3 types of headboards:
- stationary, i.e. attached to the frame;
- mounted, i.e. attached to the wall;
- attached - cabinets, chests of drawers or other storage systems moved close to the bed. Typically used if the bed is to be installed in the center of the room.
The footboard limits the length of the bed. The legs rest on it. It is usually lower in level than the headboard. Rarely found in modern furniture.

Storage systems
Built-in storage systems are a pressing issue for small apartments. The bed takes up a lot of space and can be put to good use. Often large drawers are placed under the base to store bedding. They are usually made retractable or stationary.
In addition, the beds can be decorated with decorative elements. But such finishing elements are selected depending on the design style of the bedroom.
When choosing a bed, you need to proceed from your own tastes and preferences. For example, furniture with ruffles and canopies look good in a classic style. Transformers are suitable for small rooms, and models with various storage systems are good for those who use every centimeter wisely.
