Which kind of bedframe should I buy?

JasonP · 2010-08-01 12:36:09

Hi I have got a new kingsize pocket sprung mattress and am looking to buy a kingsize bed frame. Any advice on whether to get a metal or wooden bed frame? On our last wooden bed frame the mattress sagged in the middle and we had really bad back pain! We need one with the best support and suppose the hardest!! Thanks Jason

Thanks

Many DIY stores sell pegboard. However if you can't find pegboard then hardboard is fine.

Yes that bed would be fine with pegboard/hardboard, because it is thin and flexible, so will still allow the sprung slats to flex.
