Why It Pays to Choose a Bed or Mattress in Advance

When furnishing a bedroom, we think about a lot of details. What size bed should we choose? What kind of headboard will complement the interior? What kind of mattress and firmness level will suit us?

However, there’s one thing that’s easy to overlook, and that’s time.

If you’re choosing a bed or mattress made to order according to your specifications, it’s a good idea to start the selection process before you actually need them at home.

Not so you’ll have to rush your decision—quite the opposite. It’s so you’ll have plenty of time to choose calmly and without unnecessary compromises.

A custom-made bed or mattress isn’t produced overnight

A bed or mattress isn’t something we replace every season. They’re part of the environment where we spend about a third of our day, so it makes sense to give their selection plenty of attention.

For BERNUSS beds and mattresses made to order, the standard delivery time is approximately 4 to 6 weeks.

It’s a good idea to factor this time into your planning, just as you would when selecting the bed, mattress, or other bedroom furnishings.

The advantage of making your decision early isn’t just to allow sufficient time for production. Above all, it gives you the opportunity to think through what you really expect from your new bed or mattress—from design to sleeping comfort.

If you’re planning a bedroom makeover before Christmas, allow 6 weeks

Fall is a natural time when we spend more time at home and start thinking about how to make our living space more comfortable.

If your plans include a new bed or mattress and you’d like to have them at home before Christmas, we recommend factoring in a delivery time of about 6 weeks when planning.

Production tends to be busier before the holidays, so it’s worth starting your selection well in advance.

There’s no need to decide overnight. Having plenty of time will allow you to try out different options, get advice, and choose a solution that will suit you not only for the first few nights but for the long term.

What if you need the bed sooner?

It’s not always possible or necessary to wait several weeks.

Maybe you’re finishing up your bedroom, moving, or simply don’t want to wait 4 to 6 weeks for a new bed. Even in that case, there’s a solution.

BERNUSS also has ready-made beds available that can be picked up immediately.

With these beds, you can choose from existing configurations, significantly reducing the time between making your selection and having the bed delivered to your home.

You can find the currently available models in the Outlet.

A display bed doesn’t have to mean compromising on firmness

When you’ve already chosen a bed, a natural question may arise: What if I like the bed but the firmness of the mattress isn’t right for me?

Even in that case, BERNUSS beds can be customized.

If you like the design and configuration of a particular bed but need a different mattress firmness, we can adjust it for you.

The mattress is returned to the factory, where it is opened up, the individual layers are removed, and the original spring system is replaced with one offering the selected firmness. The mattress is then completely reassembled.

The firmness adjustment itself can be completed in about one week. Depending on the specific situation, the modified bed can be delivered to your home in approximately one to two weeks.

So if you find a bed whose design you like but aren’t sure about the mattress’s firmness, you don’t have to automatically rule it out. You can consult with us directly about the options for a specific modification.

A bed and a mattress are decisions that last for years

When choosing a bed or mattress, the most important thing isn’t to decide as quickly as possible. It’s more important to find a solution that suits you, your sleeping habits, and the space in your bedroom.

If you’re planning to buy a new bed or mattress for a specific date, be sure to factor in the time it takes to manufacture it. For custom orders, allow approximately 4 to 6 weeks —and during busier periods, it’s better to plan for six.

If you need the bed sooner, check out models available immediately. And if you’re not sure which option is right for you, come in for a personal consultation.

At the BERNUSS showroom, you can try out beds and mattresses, and together we’ll find a solution that meets your needs and fits your schedule.
