If you have ever stayed in a plush hotel you will probably have enjoyed a comfortable night’s sleep luxuriating in a king-sized bed and appreciated the comfort and space it offered.

Why not replicate that experience on a nightly basis by installing a king-size bed in your own bedroom?

When you shop around you will see that you can get more from 360Homeware than just the bed frame, for instance, and if you still need a good reason to justify purchasing a bed that could transform your sleeping experience, here are ten of them for good measure.

Room to stretch out

It is nice to snuggle up to your partner in bed but when you want to get a good night’s sleep there is much more chance of doing that when your bed is big enough to give you that option.

If you are squeezing yourself into a standard size bed that works out at just two feet and three inches of space. To give you some comparison as to how small that actually is, a baby in a cot is afforded more space than that.

If you really want to stretch out and get comfortable it is clear that a standard bed measuring four feet and six inches is not going to help you achieve that aim.

Weighing up the cost

An obvious barrier to buying a new bed, especially a king-size version, might be the financial outlay, but when you add up how much you use a bed and how long you might keep it for it soon translates into a bit of a bargain.

The average time that we keep a bed for is about seven years or so and if you divide the cost of your king-size bed by that number of days it will soon seem like the cost is actually very reasonable.

Improve your chances of a better sleep

As already stated, a standard double bed doesn’t give you much room to stretch out and get comfortable, and that idea is supported by some ergonomic studies.

The bottom line is that if you spend just a few weeks sleeping in a king-sized bed and then return to a standard double bed afterward it has been shown that a high percentage of people would choose to buy a bigger bed once they have seen how it can improve your sleep.

More wriggle room

You might be surprised to learn that if you are anything like the average person you will most likely wriggle around to get yourself comfortable at least sixty times, or more, every time you retire for the night.

It stands to reason that if you have more space to do that wriggling around you won’t disturb your partner.

Buying a king-size bed will give both of you a better chance of an undisturbed sleep when you have more wriggle room.

Follow the trend

Although it is unlikely to be your primary motivation it is worth noting that a growing number of countries consider larger bed sizes as the default option and if you want to follow that trend and invest in a bigger bed you will be in good company.

Give yourself some growing room

Our bodies do a bit of growing during the night and all of us actually grow a little longer while sleeping.

The average growth rate is about 2cms, which might not sound too much, but if you are a bit cramped in the first place, it stands to reason that any extra room to accommodate your nightly growth spurt would be a good idea.

More options to tailor your options

We are all individuals and that means some of us are taller or heavier than others and because body shapes are also so varied you will want as many options as possible to get your sleeping arrangements sorted.

If you have a king-size mattress and bed to support you it shouldn’t be so relevant how tall, short, heavy, or light you are.

A justifiable expense

When you add up what you spend on other parts of your home when carrying out improvements it really is a minor purchase in comparison to buying a king-sized bed, especially when you consider how much use you are going to get out of your purchase.

The average kitchen or living room makeover will cost you a lot more than good-sized bed and mattress but the enjoyment that you will get out of having the space to stretch out and really get comfortable will probably make you feel that this purchase is money well spent.

Get into a proper sleeping position

We all tend to adopt a default sleeping position when we get into bed and when you are in a smaller bed there is always the risk that you might end up having to compromise on that if you don’t have enough room.

When you upgrade to a king it should give you the opportunity to get yourself truly comfortable and adopt a sleeping position that helps alleviate any pressure points and focus on getting into a sound sleep pattern almost as soon as your head hits the pillow.

Some noticeable health benefits

It is always a good idea to try and look after your health as best as possible and one way that you could do that would be to buy yourself a king-sized bed.

Having enough space can help you achieve a better blood flow, which will help banish any pins and needs that you might otherwise feel when you wake up after a night in a cramped double bed.

More space allows you to stretch your legs out and that will also ease the pressure on your Achilles and ankle tendons.

Another key point to consider is that when you are sleeping close to your partner in a smaller bed there is always a chance that your respiratory system can be slightly compromised because it is more compressed.

Sleeping in a bigger bed gives you more room to breathe because of the extra space and that fact alone should be enough to convince you that your sleep could be transformed if you invest in a king-size bed.
