I need a new bed. The slightest movement on mine and it squeaks like a rusty gate.
Any suggestions online to look for mattresses and bed frames?
I bought an Ecosa frame and mattress.
Personally, best mattress I've ever slept on.
I'll check them out. Thanks.
Can you get ikea delivered down there? Not everyone loves it but the Malm is pretty solid! It survived the start of me and the wifes relationship if that counts for anything and is still with us today.
Can be delivered to Launceston but then getting it from Launceston to here is the problem but I will take a look. Thanks!
Consider a box base for avoiding squeaks.
In the short term, a graphite lubricant like for locks will help a lot. Cheaper than a new bed. I would not use WD40 due to smell and greasy residue.
The bed is old. It needs to go, the screws are stripped to the point I'm not sure it could ever be taken apart lol. And the mattress is uncomfortable. I may as well have a whole new me.
