When it comes to choosing between a double bed and a king size bed, it pays to do your research first.  Both size are beds are popular but which is the best for you? Grab your cuppa and let’s explore whether you should invest in a double or king size bed.

The Double Bed: Compact Comfort

Picture this: you’ve got a lovely little double bed nestled in your cosy room. Measuring 135 cm wide and 190 cm long, it's perfect for those who like to snuggle up without feeling like a drifting raft in the ocean. Ideal for individuals or couples who don’t mind a bit of proximity, a double bed offers:

• Space-Saving Solution: If your room is on the smaller side, a double bed might be the preferred option. However, you should always make sure that you check the external measurements are framed beds can differ quite widely.
• Affordability: Generally, double beds are more budget-friendly. You can save a few quid for a cheeky takeaway or those fancy new sheets you've been eyeing up!
• Variety of Choices: From plush pillows to funky bedding, you'll find a vast selection designed to match your personality and decor. 

The King Size Bed: Luxury Awaits

Now, let’s talk about the king size bed, the grand champion of nighttime relaxation! Measuring a whopping 150 cm wide and 200 cm long, this bed is perfect for those who like to spread out like a starfish (or for couples that occasionally have pillow fights!). Here's why you might lean towards this more spacious option:

• Room to Roam: With all that extra space, king size beds are perfect for restless sleepers who toss and turn or those who just enjoy the freedom of sprawling out.
• Ultimate Comfort: With those extra inches each person has more personal sleeping space and therefore more likely to get a restful sleep. We always advise that you should try to get the biggest bed that your room will allow for this reason.
• Ideal for Families: If you have little ones that sneak in for a midnight cuddle, the king size bed offers plenty of space for all without feeling squashed!

Things to Consider

Now before you whip out that credit card, here are a few light-hearted considerations to help you make your choice:

1. Room Size: Measure your bedroom! A king size bed can overpower a smaller room, leaving little to no space for those cute bedside tables.

2. Sleeping Habits: Are you a starfish sleeper or do you prefer to curl up next to your partner? Your sleeping style can sway your decision!

3. Budget: Remember to factor in the cost of a new mattress, bedding, and accessories. A good night’s sleep requires a decent investment, but it doesn’t have to break the bank!

4. Future Plans: If you're thinking of moving soon, consider what fits best in your future home. Flexibility can save you a bit of trouble later on!
