Dream Big: How to Choose the Perfect Bed Frame

by Natalie Shipley-Younan 04 May 2025

If you’re on the hunt for a new bed frame but feeling overwhelmed by the choices, you’re not alone. At Chez Guru, we know that picking the right bed frame isn’t just about size — it’s about style, functionality, and turning your bedroom into a true sanctuary. So, grab a cuppa, and let’s get cracking on how to choose the perfect bed frame for you.


Why Your Bed Frame Matters: More Than Just Support

Let’s face it: your bed frame is the backbone (literally!) of your sleep setup. It influences your bedroom’s vibe, adds to your comfort, and can even boost your sleep quality. Did you know that a good-quality bed frame can contribute to better sleep, reducing aches and pains? Plus, with Aussies spending around 8.5 hours in bed each night—according to the Australian Sleep Health Foundation—it's worth investing in the right frame!


Sizing Up Your Space: Bed Frame Dimensions in Centimetres

Before you fall for a glamorous design, it’s essential to measure your space. Here’s a handy sizing guide in centimetres:

Bed Size Dimensions (cm) Best For
Single 92 cm x 190 cm Kids or small rooms
Double 137 cm x 190 cm Guests or couples with a tight space
Queen 152 cm x 203 cm Main bedroom for couples or singles who like extra room
King 193 cm x 203 cm Spacious setups, families, or those who love legroom
California King 183 cm x 213 cm Tall folks or extra-long comfort



Match Your Style: Modern, Rustic, or Classic?

Your bed frame sets the tone. Are you into sleek minimalism or vintage charm? Here are some popular styles:

  • Platform Beds: Low-profile, modern, perfect for a minimalist vibe.
  • Canopy & Four-Poster Beds: Add a touch of elegance and grandeur.
  • Sleigh & Vintage Frames: For a timeless, classic look.
  • Industrial & Metal Frames: Durable, trendy, and great for urban Aussie homes.

Material Matters: What’s Your Favourite?

  • Wooden Bed Frames: Timeless, warm, and durable — perfect for creating a cosy Aussie retreat.
  • Metal Frames: Lightweight and versatile, ideal for contemporary styles.
  • Upholstered Frames: Plush, comfortable, and available in various fabrics, adding a luxe touch.

Practical Tips: Storage, Height & Ease of Assembly

  • Storage: Opt for beds with built-in drawers if space is tight.
  • Height: Consider how high you want your bed; taller frames make getting in and out easier.
  • Ease of Assembly: Look for frames with straightforward setup — no DIY disasters here!
