Will a daybed support a latex mattress (and an adult body)?
|
So, looking around for various options for completing my soon-to-be latex bed and I like a few daybeds. Since the room doubles as a home office, it would be great to have something that looks nice. However, many of the daybeds I've seen seem to be made of pressboard and/or thin metals. Many appear to be designed for girls' rooms or guest rooms and not to be used by adults on a daily basis. I'm concerned that the heavier weight of latex plus a 160+ lb. body + daily use = broken daybed. Am I wrong about this? Am I looking in the wrong places? Would I be better off building some sort of decorative something or other around a conventional bed frame? Also, if I did find a sturdier daybed, would I place a slatted (or other) foundation between the daybed and the mattress? |

Thanks, that's what I thought. I'm probably better off just building something that looks like a daybed.  |
