How to Use a Nightstand With an Adjustable Bed

After you’ve bought your adjustable bed, it’s time to start thinking about what accessories you’re going to need. One of the most underrated is the night stand. 

Night stands are great to hold small items that you need to use during the night, but not large enough to need their own table, such as a lamp, clock, or phone.

But exactly how are you going to use a nightstand with an adjustable bed? You can use a nightstand with an adjustable bed by ensuring the nightstand is at least 6 inches shorter than the adjustable bed.

In this blog post I’m going to show you how to choose a nightstand that goes well with your adjustable bed and delve further into how to use a nightstand with an adjustable bed.

How to choose a nightstand for your adjustable bed

When looking for a nightstand, first consider how much space you’ll end up having

If you’re using a double bed frame, you might have a lot of space. 

If you are using a king size bed frame, you might be a bit cramped for space. 

Secondly, think about how heavy the nightstand should be

If you’re choosing a dresser, you may need something lighter. 

A heavy dresser can make it harder to move as you get around bed or need to move something else within the room. 

Finally, consider what you’ll use the nightstand for

Do you want a place to put a lamp and clock?

How to use a nightstand with an adjustable bed

As an important part of your bedroom furniture set, an adjustable bed needs to be something that is functional and built to last. 

I would recommend a nightstand with an adjustable bed to help you use your adjustable bed in the most effective way, while also making it easier to use your adjustable bed with other furniture.

I find that your nightstand doesn’t work well when your bed is raised. 

As a guideline, typically your nightstand should be more than six inches shorter than your adjustable bed

This will allow you to easily reach everything on the top of your nightstand.

What is the best nightstand for adjustable bed use? 

That depends on many factors, including how you sleep and what your storage needs are. 

Alternatively, you could use an adjustable bedside table.

Height adjustable nightstands can help you turn a flat surface into a comfortable movable bedside table, allowing you to watch TV or read a book in bed without having to get up to grab a book or glass of water. 

They also make it easier to set an alarm clock or cell phone so you do not miss an important appointment.

How to use an armoire with an adjustable bed

There is nothing I find quite as attractive as an armoire, which is why they are so commonly used in bedrooms. 

The most common use for an armoire is for storing clothes and other personal items, but there are many different types of armoires, including ones that can be used in a living room, or even as an entertainment system. 

If you are considering purchasing an armoire, it is important to consider how you plan to use it so you can find one that fits your specific needs.

However, armoires do have some design considerations that should be taken into account when used with adjustable beds. 

An armoire is typically placed against a wall, which means that an adjustable bed will be on the side of it or on a different wall if there’s limited space.

One way I would suggest is to pair an adjustable bed with a tall armoire for extra storage space, especially if you’re using your adjustable bed as a replacement for a traditional bed.

Can I use my headboard and footboard with an adjustable bed?

The headboard and footboard are important pieces of furniture that are usually found in a bedroom. 

The headboard is placed behind a mattress and used to support the head during sleep, while the footboard is used to rest feet on and is generally placed at the end of a bed.   

A common question I see people ask a lot when they are buying a new adjustable bed is whether or not they can use their headboard and footboard with their new adjustable bed. 

The answer is yes you can use a headboard and footboard with your adjustable bed when there is enough room and slats removed to provide enough clearance.

Most adjustable beds have the legs underneath the bed frame so the height will vary affecting the choice of headboard size.

How to use bed comforters with an adjustable bed

The comforter as a bedspread is essential when I want to make my bed look attractive. 

As a bedspread for adjustable beds, it is only right that you have the best comforter for the job, one that is smooth and simple to use. 

The reality is that many comforters are a hassle to deal with, whether it’s taking the comforter out of the duvet cover, or struggling to fold it back in the morning. 

To make your adjustable bed easier to make, you’ll want a bedspread that is convenient to use, not one that you have to repair every morning.

You can also make the most of it by using your bed comforter in three ways: as a blanket, decoration, and a bed skirt.

How to use an iron board with an adjustable bed

When a person is diagnosed with arthritis, there are many changes that they need to make to their lifestyle.

One of the most common is learning to use an iron board with an adjustable bed. 

When a person with arthritis chooses an adjustable bed, they are given the option of raising and lowering the head and/or the foot of the bed, and also tilting the bed. 

The tilt setting is one of the most important features for a person with arthritis, as it helps them to achieve an optimal position for the ironing board. 

With the adjustable bed and ironing board in place, the person can then easily and comfortably iron their clothes in their room.

You must have a good quality mattress with an insulating base to use an electric iron, as there is a risk of electric shock if the frame of the bed is not earthed.

How to use a desk with an adjustable bed

I know a lot of people dream of having a healthy adjustable bed , but even more people are worried about how it will fit with the rest of their home.

There are many things to think about when choosing a desk. 

Size, color, material, options, and price are all major factors to consider. 

However, the most important factor to consider is how much room you have in your home to fit the desk. 

If you have a small space for your desk, then I’d recommend that you choose one that can be stored away easily when you’re not using it.

Your adjustable bed can work with bedroom furniture

You might assume that adjustable beds are intended only for the elderly, or for those with certain health conditions.  

If you thought that, your assumption would be incorrect.  

Adjustable beds weren’t developed for the elderly or for medical purposes.  

They were developed for people who wanted to have the luxury of being able to control their bed, rather than having to depend on others to help them.  

These beds also have some clear benefits.  

As we’ve discussed, there are several ways that every adjustable bed owner can pair an adjustable bed with the common bedroom furniture, so they can get the most out of their adjustable bed.
