Your Trundle Bed Options

Picture it: your grandmother’s house for a weekend visit. You had your choice of sleeping on the plastic-covered sofa or the trundle bed. You’d rather risk sliding right off your precarious plastic perch than sleep on the flimsy, hard mattress. You might as well have slept right on the cold floor for all the comfort you’d receive. Now, picture this: luxurious comfort, a great night’s sleep, and no cold drafts from the floor. Sounds too good to be a trundle, doesn’t it? Today’s beautiful Trundle Beds have overhauled the old design, creating a comfortable extra bed, not a merely convenient add-on. The main difference? Roll-out versus pop-up.

Older model beds and Daybeds With Trundle had a roll-out mattress. Typically you could see the ugly frame protruding from the regular bed. It rolled out and rested very close to the floor. The connecting frame typically wasn’t particularly sturdy or durable. A pop-up, by contrast, has either a linkspring or polytop support system for the trundle. This creates a stronger frame and provides more comfort. You simply roll out the trundle and pop it up into position. Guests are raised off of the floor and out of the drafts. The advantage of polytops is that mattresses will not catch on hard, bouncy springs, thus lasting much longer.

Another important consideration is appearance. Older trundle beds were unfashionable and relegated to guest rooms. Today’s designs have both comfort and style in mind. Trundles are cleverly hidden, leaving no trace when they are folded up. The Upholstered Headboards, frames, and finishes can be found in a wide variety of styles, so you are sure to find something you love. Daybeds with trundle are perfect for living rooms and guest rooms, and trundle beds are certainly not out of place in master bedrooms.
