Choosing your handmade bed

Our staff often get asked for a few tips on how to buy a bed. Here's the really quick version if you're in a hurry and you want a Warren Evans handmade wooden bed:

  • Decide on the size of bed you need
  • Choose the style of bed you like
  • Choose the finish you like from our selection
  • Choose a mattress from our range including organic and memory foam
  • Add under bed storage boxes if you need them, or matching bedside cabinets.

Then hit 'Place Order'. You're done - we'll phone you back and sort out the details. Not only that, if you come into the showroom and change your mind, there's no obligation to buy.

More tips

When you're calculating the space that the bed will fit into, don't forget to measure from the skirting boards, not the walls.

Choose a bed with thick, wide slats, like all of ours - they'll support your weight better (and withstand your kids jumping all over the bed).

Check that the supplier can deliver and assemble your new bed. Building a bed from scratch can be problematic and will never be as sturdy as when built by professionals.

To test the sturdiness of a mattress, pick it up at one end - it should be heavy, meaning it is made from natural fibres or thick wadding. It definitely shouldn't fold in the middle.

If you're buying a bed for a little room, avoid dark wood - it's likely to make the room look even smaller.

3 Reasons to Choose Warren Evans

We extend our award winning customer service to all of our customers. When you order online, one of our friendly staff will call you to fix a suitable delivery time and make sure that you are happy.

We heat our workshop by using sawdust and wood chippings to fuel a bio-mass boiler. This keeps us warm and keeps two skips a week out of landfill.

If you buy from us, we can assemble your bed and take away the old one. Our own staff take care of our deliveries and are helpful and courteous at all times.



What our customers say about us...

Thanks for the lovely bed! First class service from start to finish. I will never buy a bed from anyone else, thank you.
