A mattress under the IKEA KURA \u2013 is that enough?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

There is room under the IKEA KURA, a 90 \u00d7 200 cm mattress fits in, and the second sleeping place already seems ready. For a sibling or the next sleepover guest, it is an obvious idea.<\/p>

When setting up, we first look at what promises comfort: a suitable mattress, soft bedding and the favourite cuddly toy. What lies beneath the mattress is easily overlooked.<\/p>

Yet that is exactly where two solutions differ: placed directly on the floor, the mattress rests on it over its whole surface. A slatted base with a suitable support structure creates clearance from the floor and leaves areas of the mattress underside free between its slats.<\/p>

What do about 5 cm of support height bring? And why is it worth planning the base from the start? We show what matters for the lower sleeping place in the IKEA KURA \u2013 before the bedding goes on top.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Mattress on the floor or on a slatted base: what is the difference?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

From above, both sleeping places look similar. The difference only shows beneath the mattress: on the floor it rests over its whole surface. On a slatted base, open areas remain between the wooden slats.<\/p>

Directly on the floor: little air at the underside<\/p>

If the mattress lies directly on the floor, there is no free air space beneath it. To air or check its underside, it has to be lifted. Simply folding back the duvet does not expose this area.<\/p>

What about 5 cm of support height changes<\/p>

NestUp Base raises the support surface of the lower mattress about 5 cm above the floor. Together with the gaps between the slats, this creates room for air beneath the mattress. It no longer lies directly on the floor, but is carried by individual wooden slats.<\/p>

The roughly 5 cm describes the height at which the mattress rests. The free distance under the slats is correspondingly smaller. What matters is the interplay of floor clearance, open gaps and a free air path.<\/p>

A better base still needs attention<\/p>

The slatted base provides the structural conditions for ventilation from below. Regular airing and care according to the mattress manufacturer’s instructions are still part of it. The underside should also be checked; clearance alone does not guarantee protection against moisture or mould.<\/p>

Anyone setting up a sleeping place under the IKEA KURA should therefore not only ask: \u00ab\u00a0Which mattress fits in?\u00a0\u00bb, but also: \u00ab\u00a0How does it rest there?\u00a0\u00bb A suitable support structure takes both into account: the bearing for the slatted base and the clearance from the floor.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A good sleeping place starts beneath the mattress: with the right support and room for air.<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

A sibling needs a sleeping place of their own. Or the best friend finally wants to stay the night. But where should another bed go when the wooden train set is already running its rounds on the floor?<\/p>

With NestUp Base, you use the area under the upper sleeping surface of the IKEA KURA. This creates a lower sleeping place for a 90 \u00d7 200 cm mattress \u2013 with its own bedding, favourite pillow and cuddly toy.<\/p>
