Bed Guide 💡

Buying a bed – The ultimate guide: How to find the perfect bed (also available as B-stock) ♻️

A good bed is crucial for restful sleep and therefore for health, performance, and well-being. However, many people have questions when buying a bed:
Which bed is the right one? What size fits? And is a bed that's a "B-grade" item worth buying?

In this guide, we'll show you what to look out for when buying a bed – and why B-stock beds from refurned are a particularly smart choice.

What should you look out for when buying a bed?

Several factors play a role when buying a bed:

  • Bedroom size

  • Height & Sleeping Habits

  • Number of persons

  • Combination with mattress & slatted frame

A bed should not only be visually appealing, but above all stable, durable and comfortable .

Choosing the right bed size

The size of the bed significantly influences sleeping comfort and freedom of movement.

Common bed sizes:

  • 90 × 200 cm: Single bed, youth room

  • 140 × 200 cm: Compact & space-saving

  • 160 × 200 cm: Comfort for two people

  • 180 × 200 cm: Maximum freedom of movement

👉 Tip: Plan for approximately 60–80 cm of movement space around the bed – especially important in smaller bedrooms.

Bed frame, slatted base & mattress – the interplay is what counts.

A good bed consists of more than just the frame:

🛏️ Bed frame

  • Stability is crucial

  • Wooden or upholstered beds are particularly popular.

  • Padded headboards offer additional comfort.

🧱 Slatted bed base

  • Does the mattress support

  • Affects lying comfort and ergonomics

🛌 Mattress

  • It should be suitable for body weight and sleeping position.

  • cold foam, innerspring or pocket spring core

At refurned you will find beds as B-stock , which are technically flawless and can be perfectly combined with standard slatted frames & mattresses.

Box spring bed or classic bed?

Box spring bed

✔ High entry point
✔ Hotel-like comfort
✔ Especially popular for back problems

Classic bed

✔ More flexibility in mattress choice

✔ Timeless design

It is also worth taking a look at B-grade box spring beds , as small visual defects do not affect the comfort in any way.

Why buy a B-grade bed?

A B-grade bed is not a bad choice – quite the opposite.

These are often:

  • Remaining stock

  • Exhibits

  • Returned item

  • Beds with minor visual defects

👉 Stability, function and sleeping comfort are fully guaranteed – the price is significantly reduced.
