Sleigh BedsThe Popularity of Sleigh Beds
Sleigh beds have been a classic style of bed frame for years. Unlike some bed frame styles that come and go, the sleigh bed has offered a cozy and striking look year after year. Sleigh beds are also sturdy if they are made with high-quality wood. This makes them heavy although some sleigh beds are made of engineered wood which makes them lighter. When it comes to design, a sleigh bed is the centerpiece of a bedroom, so this style is great for homeowners that want to make a statement in any bedroom.
