There are a lot of things to consider before buying your first bedroom set for your new home or family member. Bedroom sets come in all shapes and sizes, and it is important to narrow down what you want before you start shopping. It is easy to get overwhelmed with the possibilities.
What theme or style do you prefer?
Do you have a certain style or theme that you want to use for your new bedroom? What colors do you want to use? Making these decisions now before you start shopping will give you definitive filters to help you reduce your options.
What is your budget?
This is perhaps the most important of all considerations for most families, but most place it as a second priority to their desired look. Your budget should be a minimum of $1500, but you should really have at least $2000 to $5000 if you don’t want to be limited in brands or number of pieces in the set.
How big is your bedroom?
Speaking of pieces included in bedroom sets, how big is your bedroom? Most people grossly overestimate the size of their space, and therefore purchase furniture that doesn’t fit when it arrives. Measure your room, then double check everything will fit the way you envision by cutting out cardboard using the measurements supplied by the furniture manufacturer.
Who will be using the bedroom set?
What pieces you want to include in the bedroom set really depends on who it is being used for. A child would only need a Twin bed, dresser, and nightstand. A teen might also want a second nightstand and a Double or Full Size bed. A couple, on the other hand, could prefer a Queen, King, California King, or Split California King, as well as additional nightstands, dressers, or other storage for clothing, shoes, and accessories.
How long do you plan to use the bedroom set?
When determining how much you want to spend on a bedroom set and the pieces you want to include in the room, consider first how long you plan to use the bedroom set. If you will only be using it for a few years, it doesn’t make sense to spend thousands of dollars. On the other hand, if you pay for high quality bedroom furniture it will likely outlast you.
These are all considerations that you will need to make no matter where you buy your bedroom set. But if you want to find the best price, see all bedroom sets here.
