How to choose the best upholstered base for your mattress?
⠀⠀⠀⠀ There is a direct relationship between the rest base and the characteristics of the mattress on which we sleep. The choice of one is subject to the other. The Spanish Bed Association (ASOCAMA) distinguishes between two types of bed bases: upholstered bases and slatted bases. The choice of one or the other will depend on the specific characteristics of the mattress. ⠀⠀⠀⠀
When should we choose an upholstered base and when should we choose a slatted bed base?
An upholstered base rests completely horizontally, for this reason it is the perfect choice if we want to achieve greater stability in the rest equipment or if we want to add an extra point of firmness. Although an upholstered base, in principle, is not suitable for any type of mattress, ASOCAMA clarifies that it will be more appropriate in the case of mattresses with greater breathability, since it is a rigid surface and does not tend to favor transpiration as much as the slatted bed base. The place where the base will be placed will also influence the decision of one or the other: if it is a room with high humidity or ventilation problems, it is recommended to opt for a slatted bed base that ensures greater breathability and air circulation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀
The mattress base for each mattress type
A key and fundamental aspect when choosing the right mattress foundation is the technology and material of the mattress. Spring mattresses tend to be the most breathable mattresses. This makes them a favorite of hot people and especially suitable for upholstered bases. Latex or foam mattresses tend to perspire less than spring mattresses, and are therefore more suitable for slatted bases, which favor breathability. In any case, to know which is the best upholstered base for the mattress, ASOCAMA recommends consulting with each mattress manufacturer during the purchase process, since there are technologies that guarantee the correct transpiration, also in the upholstered bases. ⠀⠀⠀⠀
The sleeping base as an additional organizational element in the bedroom
If we talk about upholstered bases, we tend to think of the well-known folding sofa. For different reasons such as design, personal taste or lack of space, the folding bases can become the best ally to solve storage problems. The manufacturers of ASOCAMA, have multiple options to suit as much as possible in format and textures to the home. Wooden, leatherette, textile … are some options to make the bedroom become a more personal and original space. In addition to fulfilling aesthetic and organizational functions, the storage bases are still the base of a mattress and, as such, the choice of one will always be subject to the other. Like the family to which they belong, the folding storage base will provide a stable rest base and an extra point of firmness. Despite all these indications, ASOCAMA recommends being guided by manufacturers and specialists in rest, sharing with them the characteristics of the mattress on which you sleep to make the right choice and get the best rest equipment with the best upholstered base for the mattress.
