How to Buy a Bed Online
Traditionally making any purchase, you would go to a shop and look at the items before buying from a shop assistant who would talk through the options. Now the internet has revolutionised the way we buy things and many people don’t need to leave the house to buy all essential items.
A big bed is a carefully considered purchase, it is important to pick the correct bed as it isn’t an easy item to deliver or return, however at Longbeds we have made the process as easy as possible.
Choosing the right bed is very important as a good quality bed will last years, and it is an item that you will use every night, and sometimes for the occasional nap too. Your bed needs to fit in with your room as a key focal point, whilst you can change your bedding regularly you bed should be functional as well as stylish but not too fashionable that it won’t last the seasons.
Bed sizes can be daunting, Double bed, single bed, King Sized? It is important when designing your bedroom that you know the sizes of these beds so you can fit them into your space, and then of course European sizes and stores like IKEA use different measurements, they use metric instead and there are some differences in their standard sizes so buying online can be confusing.
At Longbeds you don’t need to conform to standard sizes, this means we can fit the bed to you, as our beds are made in the UK we can build the bed to your specifications and then choose from the choices of finish to get the perfect bed.
