Are Metal Beds Still Cool?



People can occasionally shy away from things they recall from childhood because it’s “kiddish” or “immature.” Metal beds and headboards are often one of those things. Many women recall light colors with pretty leaves and frilly designs on their models. Men often think about their seemingly cold and austere beds. With those images in mind, metal beds may not seem like interesting choices.

Until you have examined the current metal beds on the market, you haven’t seen anything. The styles and makes, sizes and types are all so different and unique in their own way, a little bit of browsing is likely to change your entire outlook on them. Sleek metal platform beds exude an ultramodern air. Daybeds shine during the day, ready to provide a good night’s sleep at any time. You can find everything from an elaborate metal canopy bed to a simple frame with a modern headboard.

Metal is glossy and smooth, bent into any shape you want, from sharp angles to smooth curves. It can be bright enough to glint in the sun or given a dull finish for an older or more rustic look. These days, it can be coupled with wood and other materials to add extra zest to its style. It can also be covered in a wide array of finishes to match any bedroom furniture in your room, ranging from gleaming ebony to mimicking new fallen snow, from gold straight out of the ground to liquid silver and everything in between. Searching through companies like Hillsdale Furniture and the Fashion Bed Group will show you the elegant strides metal beds have made over the years.

So, are metal beds still cool?

Absolutely.
