If you're thinking of updating your bedroom furniture then one of the key areas to address is whether you need to swap your old bed frame for a more modern option. We are about to change our bed which we've had a long time. It's quite low to the ground which was 'on trend' but we do feel this has issues and is part of why we want a change.

Choosing the right bed frame can significantly impact how comfortable you are as well as the overall aesthetic and functionality of your bedroom. One of the many options available are platform metal bed frames. I keep coming across these styles as I google my home decor! They stand out for being long lasting, classic and quite versatile.

One brand which offers a wide range of products with fast delivery is Yaheetech. Not only can you browse the style of bed which suits you best in the comfort of your home but they can be ordered easily through Amazon, Wayfair and many more.

So why are we leaning towards this style of metal bed frame? Here's our reasons for going with a basic metal bed frame design.

Modern and elegant

If you're a fan of the loft/ industrial trend, a platform metal bed frame is a great choice. Choose a bed frame with clean lines, simple geometric shapes, and a matte black or gunmetal finish. You can pair it with exposed brick walls, concrete floors, and metal accents throughout the room to create that rugged, urban-inspired look. Add some industrial-style pendant lights and a few vintage accessories to complete the design without looking too much. This Yaheetech metal bed frame suits this style of home.

If you love a minimalist bedroom this would also suit your room. The simple bed frame design has an understated elegance. A metal frame with thin, straight legs and in a neutral colour such as black, white or grey with crisp white linens will create a serene and uncluttered atmosphere.

Space-Saving Solutions

If your bedroom is on the smaller side, a platform metal bed frame can take pretty storage boxes or drawers underneath and still look great. If you buy boxes on wheels it's easy to get to your belongings when you need them. The higher level of the bed frame is a practical feature which helps you keep your bedroom organised, clutter-free and makes the most of the available space.

Clean and tidy

Choosing a bed frame with a platform means the structure is up off the ground and you can see the floor space underneath. This is quite important as the undersides of beds can become very dusty and unloved if the bed is hard to move or clean under.

Having that free space visible makes the home look bigger as your eye flows around the room. This means you are more likely to keep it clean and tidy as you can tell straight away when it needs a vacuum. I find it’s easier to keep on top of that great clean surface underneath and ensures it doesn’t get dusty.

Different styles

Just because you are considering a metal bed doesn't mean you won’t be spoilt for choice. These come with modern sleek lines, curved ornate posts, in singles, doubles and daybeds. My daughter has a day bed with a twin mattress and trundle bed underneath for sleepovers. It still serves its purpose now as additional beds when we have guests. During the day it's used as an extra large couch piled with plenty of cushions and is always the favourite of our visitors.

Keep your mattress

Should you already have a decent mattress, this can be reused as many metal frame beds especially those with a platform have the mattress placed on top of the frame, not sitting within a recess. This is very useful and means there is less expense.

Overall we wouldn't be without this style of metal bed frame. All of ours have outlived their wooden or velvet covered cousins! Not only that, but they don't seem to go out of fashion being such a classic shape and in neutrals colours you can't go wrong. If you want a new look for your bedroom or guest room and this is your next perfect project, consider a metal bed for your sleeping area.
