When it comes to designing your bedroom and lounge, the right combination of base and mattress, headboard and lounge furniture can make all the difference. At Mana Furnitures you’ll find pieces that balance comfort, durability and style — for example, the Sleepmax Econ Medium Firm Bed features a high-quality Bonnell spring mattress built on a solid wooden base. 

Below we’ll walk you through how to choose and coordinate these elements, and then answer the most common questions.

1. The Base & Mattress: Foundation of Comfort

  • Start with a solid base: A well-constructed base supports your mattress properly, ensuring longevity and comfort.

  • Consider mattress feel: The Sleepmax Econ offers a medium firm feel with 18 cm Bonnell springs, a knitted fabric topper and HD quilt foam. 

  • Match size and scale: Ensure your base and mattress are compatible with your room size and your headboard (if you’ll add one).

  • Think long-term: A good mattress and base combo means better support, less sagging, and fewer sleep issues.

2. Choosing a Headboard to Match

  • Style: Whether upholstered, wooden, tall or low, your headboard sets the tone for the room.

  • Proportion: Make sure the headboards height and width suit your bed size and wall space.

  • Practicality: Headboards provide back support when sitting up, and protect the wall from wear.

  • Coordination: Match or complement the base and mattress in colour and material for a cohesive look.

3. Integrating a Lounge or Living-room Area

  • Furnish with intention: If your lounge is adjacent to your sleeping area (or part of an open plan), choose furniture that complements your bedroom aesthetic.

  • Comfort meets style: Look for lounge seating that matches the quality feel of your mattress and base — you want relaxation everywhere.

  • Scale and flow: Don’t overcrowd. Make sure the lounge pieces allow movement and align with the bedroom furniture scale.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q1: How firm is “Medium Firm” in a mattress like Sleepmax Econ?
A1: “Medium firm” means the mattress gives good support without being overly hard. The Sleepmax Econ uses an 18 cm Bonnell spring system plus HD quilt foam, offering decent support with some cushioning. 

Q2: Does the headboard come included with the bed set?
A2: In this case, no: the Sleepmax Econ Medium Firm Bed listing specifically says “Headboard Not Included”. You’ll need to select a headboard separately.

Q3: Can I pick up the bed from the store?
A3: Yes — according to their policy, pick-up is available at the Hamilton store once the order is ready. 

Q4: What’s the delivery timeframe for a base + mattress in NZ?
A4: For Mana Furnitures, they state orders are processed within 2-3 working days and delivery is approximately 3-5 working days after processing.

Q5: How do I coordinate the lounge furniture with my bedroom furniture?
A5: Choose materials and colours that harmonise (e.g., woods, fabrics, tones) and consider the visual weight: if your mattress/base/headboard are substantial, your lounge seating should balance that, not compete or feel mismatched.

Q6: What happens if I change my mind after receiving the bed?
A6: They have a 7-day return policy after receipt — the item must be unused with original tags and packaging. 

Q7: Are the product images exactly what I’ll receive?
A7: They indicate that the “pictures shown are intended solely for customer reference and may differ in appearance.”
