There's a time and a place for trendy furniture, but when it comes to your sleeping quarters, we suggest sticking to the classics, like wooden bed frames. After all, wood—like mahogany, cherry, maple, and oak, to name a few of our favorites—is warm, luxurious, and always in style. Plus, the natural material is hardly limiting, as plenty of retailers have designed wooden bed frames to suit different looks.

Ahead, we’ve chosen some of our favorites that come in different grains, sizes, and styles, so you’re bound to find something that suits your space. Did we mention that there's a massive price range (some are even less than $150), and plenty of our top picks are on sale? So if you’re looking to upgrade your bedroom with arguably your home's most important piece of furniture, consider this your cheat sheet.

Aside from breaking down all of the reasons we’re into these wooden bed frames, we’re giving you the crucial stats including size options, delivery type, and whether or not you need to learn how to use a drill. We even chatted with Quentin de Coster, Thuma's Senior Director of Product and Industrial Design as the brand specializes in thoughtful, easy-to-assemble wooden designs backed by timeless Japanese technique. Go on, get the good night's sleep you’ve been craving on a brand-new ultra-cool bed that will elevate your space in all the right ways.

The Webster bed is Serena & Lily's contemporary twist on 17th-century bobbin furniture. Of course, it features the classic turned-wood detailing, yet it's sleek in all the right ways giving it an airiness that typical spool-style pieces don't. Plus, if you use the code "SPRING" at checkout, you can save a whopping 20%.

Wooden beds not necessarily break easily, but they're more fragile than metal. When shopping for a wooden bed, opt for sturdy options, including maple, mahogany, oak, and walnut.

Whether or not you need a box spring depends on the bed type, not the frame material. So some wood beds may require a box spring, but others don't. If your bed frame has a support system (like slats), there's no need to invest in a box spring.

The House Beautiful shopping editors understand the importance of a stylish bedroom. It's just as important as eight uninterrupted hours of sleep! So when we started our search for the beautiful wooden bed frames, we picked the best ones at various price points.
