The subtleties of choosing a bed with a lifting mechanism measuring 90x200 cm

Small beds with a lifting mechanism are gaining more and more popularity. Models measuring 90x200 cm are great for children's rooms. Including compactness and functionality, such furniture saves the usable area of ​​a small room. And it helps to solve another important problem - to organize a storage system for bedding, pillows and blankets.

The design of the bed is a full-fledged sleeping place, under which there is a storage niche. To access it, you need to raise the mattress. The main advantage of such models is functionality. In addition to sleeping comfortably, the lifting mechanism allows you to save space and store things that have no room in the closet.

Although it may not always be convenient for a small child to lift the mattress on their own, it is best to limit the storage system to only household textiles and belongings. For a children's room, such a model is a real lifesaver. A spacious drawer at the bottom of the bed will allow you to discard unnecessary furniture in the room and free up space for games.

Beds measuring 90x200 cm differ in materials, lifting mechanisms and upholstery design options:

• It is worth paying special attention to the choice of the frame. Although the base, as a rule, is hidden from view by fabric upholstery, it is the material that affects the durability and reliability of the bed. Most often, natural wood, chipboard or MDF are used for this. Preference, of course, should be given to an array, but such beds are much more expensive.

• A side bed with headboards is an ottoman that can be located in the corner of the bedroom. The lifting option can be horizontal or vertical. Such a model will teach the child to be in order, because blankets and pillows will not be in sight. During the day, the bed with the bedding removed looks like a cozy sofa, and in the evening it becomes a full-fledged sleeping place.
• Modern models can rise vertically and hide in a cabinet niche. In this case, the sleeping place will be hidden from view during the day and will free up most of the room. And with the onset of evening, the mattress will drop to its usual position. This model will allow you to use the space rationally in a small room.

Manufacturers produce lifter beds in various sizes.

In addition to the model measuring 90x200 cm, beds of 80x190 cm, 90x190 cm, 100x190 cm, 80x200 cm are also popular. Such models are perfect for children and adolescents.

The lifting mechanism can be horizontal, vertical and lateral.

Basic lifting mechanisms:

• The simplest and most inexpensive - manual lifting. Experts consider this type to be the safest and most durable. But the weight of the bed can be very heavy, especially for a child, so this option can hardly be called successful for a baby bed.
• Optimal in terms of price-quality ratio - spring mechanism. Ease of operation will allow you to raise and lower the berth without any problems. But springs are subject to wear and tear, so the service life of such a mechanism varies from 3 to 5 years. After that, a complete replacement of the structure will be required.
• Gaslift - strong and reliable mechanism. To raise the berth, you just need to push the mattress. The service life is 5-10 years.

Some helpful tips:

• Lift beds require careful selection of bedding. Frequent vertical lifts can cause linen and mattress to stray, so choose a sheet with an elastic band for a secure fit.
• Choose an easy-care bed. The most suitable option for practical upholstery is eco-leather, which also looks appropriate on modern side beds.
• An orthopedic mattress directly affects the comfort of the bed and the quality of sleep.
• When buying a bed with a lift mechanism, there are many points to consider, but this is when you can make the right choice with maximum space savings.
