Found another bed

ccassaday — Fri, 20 Oct 2017 00:57:34 GMT

Found another bed I love. This is going to be hard. The only thing that might make it easier is the price of the light one is about half the price of the darker one. But reading reviews they both seem like good quality. The lighter one is from wayfair the darker one is from ballard.

I like the light one, but they are both pretty.

If I go with the lighter one I will have to get a queen adjustable bed. They don't make it in a full. But it's so much less expensive I would still spend less. The nightstands and dressers are also less expensive. Ha Ha. I wish it was spring so I could shop and put my room together.

I like both of them, but you may want to consider different things with both. Does the one have drawers for storage (which is a plus). The other might need a dust ruffle if there isn't anything on the sides (if you want the box spring to be seen or covered).

Be sure to double check the size of each, I've bought lots of items that looked fantastic in the showroom, and then struggled to get them to fit in my house.

Both options are beautiful, and I wish I was shopping for new furniture...maybe in 2018!

@ccassaday Another vote for the light colored bed, prefer the paneled look over the applied moulding on the dark one. Whatever you choose, enjoy. Happy to read that your build is going well, I'm sure everyone is looking forward to getting settled in.

I am really liking the light one also. It's very scary ordering something like this off of the internet. Having to have a adjustable bed it scares me the adjustable base won't fit in the frame. I have the instructions from the one from ballard so I think it would work. I asked a question on the wayfair one if the slats were removable and if there is a way to get the instructions. This would be a very expensive mistake if it didn't work.

I have to get a adjustable bed so I can't have one with storage. They do make the same bed with storage also. The darker one has panels on the side also.

Even though it is less expensive I think the lighter one looks much richer and more elegant. It just sort of draws you to it. I feel like the darker one is like what you would see in a motel. Of course bedding, paint and flooring can really change the look of a bed also in a room.

Very nice! I prefer the darker. The light one reminds me of white washed furniture popular in the late 80s.

When I cannot decide which item to buy, I go with the least expensive. If I immediately feel disappointed, I go with the other one instead. If I feel satisfied, I stick with the least expensive.

Both are very pretty but I actually prefer the ligther one not just because it's less expensive either. I like the head board and drawers also. Tough decision.

They are both very attractive. Go with your first gut instinct.

Its only $$$$$$, you only live once, treat yourself. Its a substantial piece that you will have for a long long time, its not like changing sheets.

GO WITH THE ONE YOU LOOOOVVVEEE. You wont regret it.

Not that it matters, LOL, but I like the darker one. Plus the richer color will contrast nicely with your decor and furnishings.

I like the lighter one and think it would be a better option with the accessories you have posted.
