Bed base 140x190

The bed base 140x190: a double size to fit into your bedroom

A bed base 140x190 supports a mattress 140 cm wide and 190 cm long. This size lets you furnish a double bed while keeping its footprint modest. When choosing, consider how much space each sleeper wants, a length suited to your height, and the room you need to move around the bed.

The selection includes upholstered bed bases on legs and storage beds with their own frames. The first decision is therefore about how to use your space: do you want a visible fabric-covered base beneath the mattress, or storage you can access by lifting the bed base?

The upholstered bed base 140x190: a single-piece base with legs

In this size, our upholstered bed base combines a solid pine frame and 14 slats with beige or gray upholstery. It rests on five natural varnished beech legs, including a center leg. Its nonslip surface helps keep the mattress in place, while the padded top completes the fabric finish.

Its outer dimensions are 140 × 190 cm, and it stands 30 cm high with the supplied legs. Add the mattress thickness to determine the bed’s final height. Made in France with PEFC-certified wood, this model is sold without a mattress or headboard. Explore its construction in our collection of upholstered bed bases.

The 140x190 storage bed: comparing storage layouts

A storage bed uses the space beneath the mattress for storage. Models in this size are offered as complete beds with a lift-up slatted base. The base lifts from the foot of the bed with the help of gas struts and a strap.

The interior layout varies: some models have an open bottom, with belongings resting on the floor; others have a bottom panel and four compartments. Consider the type of linens or other items you want to store. Available finishes include light oak-look and white, on a structure combining solid pine and panels depending on the model.

Which mattress should you put on your bed base 140x190?

A 140x190 mattress provides the same sleeping area on either type of base. Still, check the mattress manufacturer’s recommendations, particularly when the base has exposed slats. The right dimensions alone do not confirm that every mattress and base are compatible.

For a storage bed, also compare the mattress weight with the range specified for its lifting mechanism: models in this selection specify 16 to 30 kg or 16 to 40 kg, depending on the model. Follow the guidance for the product you choose. For the upholstered bed base, the stated maximum load is 250 kg in total, including the mattress.

Planning for access and assembly

A 140 × 190 cm bed may arrive with a preassembled, single-piece base or a base that must be assembled on site. Check package dimensions, access routes, and assembly requirements. For a storage bed, also measure the bed’s outer dimensions, which are larger than the mattress dimensions.

The upholstered bed base is simply set up on its legs. A storage bed requires assembling the frame and mechanism according to the instructions. Compare how you would use each option to choose a practical solution both when setting it up and in everyday life in your bedroom.
