How can I improve my bed?

I have a friend that’s pushing 400 lbs and his wife is over 200. Their last bed lasted 8 years before they replaced it – and even then it wasn’t actually broken. A bed should easily hold 300 lbs – that’s like two 150 lb people lying in bed. My advice is to invest in a better quality bed instead of taking whatever your landlord gives you.

Do you have bed frame supports like the ones in the link below? These types of frames provide great support. Hope this helps, good luck.

Turn the sex down a bit?

Agreed though sounds like those beds were shit to start with

I am not a big person but…I had 3 pine boards screwed into the frame of my memory foam queen bed because the frame was flimsy and the bed would fall down periodically. Get 3–4 like half inch thick pine planks and screw them into the frame for extra sturdiness.

Or get several cinder blocks to put underneath the box spring for extra support.

Just get a good bed. 300 pounds shouldn’t break a bed, and plus, for a good nights rest which is so important, and your general well being, a bed is a good investment.

Solide Platform bed would be a good option.

You could get rid of the frame and put the box spring on the floor; or lose the box spring, too, and just put the mattress on the floor – we did that for years just to have a firm support. The problem with that is getting in and out of bed if you have physical limitations or aches and pains.

@hearkat I started to do that in December… its more comfortable and I have bed worms.
