What is a foldable bed?
There’s a great deal of space to gain when you use a foldable bed frame. That’s because these frames are able to be folded and tucked away as needed. They satisfy the need for a bed but also have the added perk that they can be put to the side when not in use. There are many situations where this might be a plus. For example, having a foldable bed frame means that hospitals or nursing homes can have multiple beds accessible. Yet, they only take up little space in storage areas when unfilled. Homes with children might retrieve a foldable bed frame from a closet when the kids host a slumber party. Additionally, having extra beds that can be hidden when not in use can be helpful when welcoming overnight guests.
Who Can Use a Foldable Bed Frame?
- Assisted living facilities wanting extra beds on hand.
- Families with kids who throw sleepovers often.
- Homes with limited guest room space.
- Renters of studio apartments or small apartments.
- Anyone wanting easy carrying and transport.
