Do some research before you go shopping.
Sleep Like the Dead is a really good review/research site. They cut across all brands in their reviews and they explain why certain beds are certain ways. For example it's really hard to comparison shop mattresses because manufacturers tend to make specific models only for specific stores. The insides may be exceptionally similar, but it's difficult to tell that at the stores and sales people aren't great about sharing that info.
I spent most of my life on a traditional innerspring mattress but recently (like a month ago) switched to one of the bed in a box foam mattress and I'm loving it. My hip and lower back pain has dramatically decreased and the price was sooo much better.
This is the mattress I got from Amazon. Slightly lower rated then the Caspers/Leesas of the world, but also a lot cheaper. I didn't want to invest a ton if I wasn't sure about the whole foam mattress thing.
I already had a box spring from my old bed that was still in good shape, so I didn't get a new one, but if I had, I'd probably go with something like a platform bed. There are really simple ones like this one that'll get the job done and let you have plenty of room for storage underneath. You can also get some that have drawers built in for storage which is handy.
Then, depending on your style, you could add a headboard to any frame.
Floating headboard.

I guess it was actually less than 99. Works well in our guest room.
Do you have a budget for a storage/bookshelf headboard? Or you could look to buy/build something like this for a lot cheaper.
Target also have these large square pillows. They can be found cheapish and they are to be put standing up. They kind of like make a headboard until you can afford a headboard (though there are some good cheap options on amazon imo https://www.amazon.com/Zinus-Jessica-Modern-Upholstered-Headboard/dp/B073R15VZC/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=headboard&qid=1574158010&sr=8-6)
Check out this Amazon headboard -- gray and black, $60!
If you just want something to keep your desk chair from sinking, one of those vinyl chair mats is probably best. They come in plenty of colors (including clear). Jute and other woven fibers can be fairly knobbly so might not be the best choice for under a wheelie chair.
Good luck and have fun!
Like /u/turbotaco22 I went with a Zinus 14" or 16" (preferred) metal frame off Amazon and hid everything underneath with a good bedskirt.
I bought this one and this headboard but unfortunately they don't connect very well. I had to use metal zip ties to attach the headboard to the frame.
Underneath I use these Ikea bins to store my stuff .
Amazon!
Ok #1 Why are you worried about roaches? Do you have a huge roach problem? Call an exterminator because roaches can get wherever the fuck they want. Don't eat in the bed so they won't go looking for a snack under your sheets.
That frame looks nice but I would get something with a headboard instead, because that's much more sophisticated. If you're concerned about portability, you can get a simple metal frame with a nice headboard.
Looks something like this one
The wall above the headboard is 140" x 55", and I am looking for a large statement piece for it. Any suggestions?
Link to the headboard and the LED tape I used.
something like this or this?
if so, "leather headboard," "upholstered headboard," "leather bed," etc. would be some good search terms for you.
-Pizza Rocker because I feel like it gets the job done faster and has the added bonus of feeling like a legit chef using it 😂
-I keep a baseball bat tucked behind the bedroom door just in case
-current favorite app other than alien blue for Reddit
-Holla
-Does a tub count as furniture 😂 I take hot baths a lot for migraines so I'd say that but if it doesn't count then I'll say the couch because the living room has really great natural lighting and it's just a happy and comfortable place to chill out
-Something I want is a new bed or at least a headboard that doesn't look like it belongs to a teenage boy. I hate the one we have so I hide it with pillows lol

Not the exact same, but it will give you some search terms.
Jeg er dessverre jomfru. Hadde tenkte om en cushioned headboard som: https://www.amazon.com/Brookside-Upholstered-Headboard-Diamond-Tufting/dp/B071HBWDPP (usikkert om farget)
I swear to puppies I'm going to throw a psychotic fit.
Well, if I ever get this then the hammers won't be the only thing squeaking!
Hi all! I have little/no woodworking experience, but I just received a new circular saw and want to try my first project. I really like this headboard (pictured here) on Amazon. It's $276 but I think I can make it cheaper and would be a fun thing to spend the weekend trying. How diffcult would something like this be for a rank beginner? Do you have any advice before I get started?
Get a large piece of art that fits with your style (photo print, canvas, whatever--I got a big canvas of a British Airways Concord above my bed) for the wall on the right. Get a headboard check out overstock.com, they have some great ones. Or you can get some on amazon for like 80 [Modway Lily Queen Upholstered Linen Headboard in Gray] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HVW3TXA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_UjAtybSGF1Q06). Paint 2 walls grey and 2 either a muted green or blue (I was always taught to put cool colors in the bedroom).
