Everything you need to know before choosing the best bed frame in Malaysia, whether you live in KL, Ipoh, Kelantan, Johor, or anywhere in between.
Why You Should Care About Your Bed Frame
A mattress is only as good as the frame it rests on. Your bed frame:
- Enhances mattress longevity
- Improves sleep comfort and support
- Shapes the look and feel of your bedroom
- Enables under-bed storage and organization
- Adds height, airflow, and hygiene benefits
Sonno’s bed frames are designed with these core needs in mind combining timeless design, comfort engineering, and premium materials.
Step-by-Step Bed Frame Buying Checklist
1. Know Your Mattress Size
Most bed frames in Malaysia come in these standard sizes:
- Single – 90x190 cm
- Super Single – 107x190 cm
- Queen – 150x190 cm (most popular in condos and homes)
- King – 180x190 cm (best for master bedrooms)
✅ Make sure your bed frame matches your mattress exactly. All Sonno mattresses and frames follow these standard dimensions.
2. Choose the Right Bed Frame Material
| Material | Key Features | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Solid Wood | Strong, durable, timeless design | Premium interiors, long-term use |
| Metal | Minimalist, strong airflow, slim profile | Modern or industrial rooms |
| Upholstered (Fabric) | Soft edges, premium look, sound-dampening | Condos, bedrooms focused on aesthetics |
| Engineered Wood (MDF/Particle Board) | Affordable, lightweight | Guest rooms or short-term use |
Sonno’s Signature Bed Frame uses durable, premium materials and a modern finish that complements both minimal and warm-toned bedrooms.
3. Frame Types to Consider
| Frame Type | Best For | Key Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Platform Frame | Most sleepers | Does not require a box spring; stable and easy to assemble |
| Storage Frame (drawer or hydraulic lift) | Small rooms, apartments | Maximizes space under the bed |
| Headboard Frame | Aesthetic-focused homes | Comfortable for reading, working, or sitting up in bed |
| Foldable / Modular Frame | Small condos, temporary setups | Portable, compact, easy to store |
💡 Sonno’s Foldable Mattress can complement minimalist bed frame setups and cater to compact living needs.
How Much Should You Budget for a Bed Frame in Malaysia?
| Category | Price Range (RM) | What to Expect |
|---|---|---|
| Budget | 200 – 500 | Simple MDF or metal frames, basic design |
| Mid-Range | 700 – 1,500 | Upholstered frames, better slat support, branded models |
| Premium | 1,800 – 3,500+ | Natural wood, hydraulic storage, designer finishes |
👉 Sonno’s bed frames fall within the mid-to-premium range, offering long-term value through durability, 5-year warranty, and customer-first policies.
What is the best bed frame to buy in Malaysia?
The best bed frame depends on your space, design style, and budget. Sonno’s Signature Bed Frame is a top choice due to its tool-free assembly, premium materials, and clean aesthetics.
Is a platform bed frame better than a traditional frame?
For most Malaysians, yes. Platform frames don’t need a box spring, are easier to set up, and offer better support for memory foam and latex mattresses like Sonno’s.
What kind of bed frame is best for small rooms in KL or Penang?
Go for a low-profile frame or storage frame. Sonno’s minimalist bed frame or foldable mattress options are designed for compact homes.
Do bed frames affect mattress performance?
Yes. A poorly made or squeaky frame can cause mattress sagging, reduced support, and disrupted sleep.
