DON'T MISS A THING

When it comes to finding bedroom furniture you know will last you the ages, high-quality, deeply thought-out pieces always win. Finding the best bedroom furniture for your space can get challenging, especially when you’re trying to figure out what pieces you can compromise on, and which you should consider an investment.

A good rule of thumb when considering whether to splurge or save on a piece of bedroom furniture is to think about two key things.

Longevity

How durable is the type of furniture in question? How much time is it going to serve you while still looking beautiful in your bedroom?

Comfort

How much is it going to actively contribute to ensuring you have a restful night’s sleep? This really should be the underlying purpose of every element of bedroom furniture you choose for your space.

From finding a comfortable foam mattress that will last to discovering the magical clutter cleansing properties of a great book-shelf, here are some of our top recommendations.

Best Bedroom Furniture Pieces to Invest In

#1 A Top Notch Memory Foam Mattress

Number one on our list for bedroom furniture well worth investing in is a memory foam mattress. You only need to sleep a week on a cheaply made memory foam mattress to realize it’s going to have to be replaced within a week. Finding the best memory foam mattress for your comfort is actually a lot simpler than it sounds. Most of the best mattress companies will offer a trial period, so you can purchase a memory foam mattress without having to commit to it until you’re sure.

To find a memory foam mattress that has the right balance of firm and soft, make sure to look out for the number of layers and quality of materials used to produce it. For something that lasts a long time, you’ll want your memory foam mattress to be made of high-grade, non-toxic materials – lookout for extra external certifications so you can be sure of this. Other qualities of high-quality memory foam mattresses include temperature regulation, stain resistance, and hypoallergenic qualities that’ll keep you sniffle free during spring.

#2 Functional & Stylish Nightstands

While the style you gravitate to might vary depending on the bedroom decor style you’re opting for, finding a great nightstand to keep by your bed can really make a significant impact on the time you spend making your bed in the morning, and keeping things tidy through the day.

When you’re on the lookout for a stylish nightstand it’s a good idea to keep things simple and classic – this will ensure your nightstand is able to withstand several room-resets without having to be sacrificed in the process. The best nightstands will also come with extra storage functionality, so be sure to buy one that has drawers and plenty of room to tuck away your bedside reading, candles, or any other knick-knacks you’ll want to keep close and handy.

#3 Armchair

It may be unusual to think about an armchair in a bedroom, but having a little nook in the corner of your space that’s dedicated to relaxing and unwinding after a long day can be a wonderful addition. It’ll also ensure you’re only using your bed for sleeping, which can be especially important if you currently struggle to get a good night’s sleep.

Finding an armchair that’s upholstered well and is equally adaptable to changing bedroom decor styles is going to be important. Be sure to pick out something with scratch-resistant fabric (leather is more susceptible to damage in the long-term) and opt for neutral tones (or perhaps a statement color you know you’ll always love) so that it’s sure to last you for a good while.

#4 Bookshelf

Storage solutions are a vastly underrated category when it comes to finding bedroom furniture that’ll keep your space looking and feeling great. Bookshelves are actually a great investment piece that you can use for both keeping your library at an arm’s reach but also for displaying any knick-knacks and other miscellaneous files that might be cluttering your space otherwise.

To ensure you’re investing in a book-shelf that’s truly going to last you the ages, try and find something made of higher-quality wood. Other things to look out for include different sized compartments, so you can opt to use your shelves for pieces of items other than books as well.

#5 Bed Frame

Last but not least, finding a bed frame that’s going to last you different mattresses and house changes is the perfect example of a one-off investment that truly pays off. Depending on the type of bedroom decor you choose or the functionality you require, different bed frames might be right for you.

For a functional bed frame that’s going to stay adaptable to any type of mattress you purchase, a basic foundation and headboard are perfect for most bedrooms. Wooden bed frames have a more traditional look and are perfect if you’re going for a more rustic, cozy feel.

If you’re looking for a bed frame that’s going to look slightly more luxurious, you may choose to opt for an adjustable bed frame, which tends to have a wider range of customizable features for you to choose from.

Final Thoughts on the Best Bedroom Furniture to Invest In

When you’re looking to invest in bedroom furniture that feels right for your space, remember to go with your gut. High-quality pieces of bedroom furniture don’t have to come with an equally high price-tag – the top-rated mattress for your comfort really doesn’t have to cost a fortune.

Comb through reviews and production facilities before you make your decision, and you’re likely to end up with something you’ll feel good about. Remember, your bedroom is a personal space – so if there are some items on this list you think just won’t work for you, it might be worth thinking about their function and what a suitable replacement might be.

Once you’ve planned out what you need to buy, the only thing left to do is decorate. You’ll be happy you spent some time thinking through what you needed to purchase for your space – happy snoozing!
