For wooden daybeds, the options are maple, oak, pine, mahogany, cherry, walnut or rosewood. These also come in colors ranging from black, dark (medium, light) to natural wood finish. While cedar will provide a rustic atmosphere, oak may spell elegance. There is something about the metal bed that makes it score over others easily. A choice in heavy metal like iron would lend itself well to a traditional home design.

The varied finishes in metal offer fantastic design options to suit your home, whether styled with contemporary, traditional or transitional looks. While a wicker bed would brighten up any decor since its adornment lies in the mattress, cushions and daybed linen (would generally include one daybed comforter, daybed cover or bed skirt and three standard pillow shams). The daybed cover or bed skirt (often frills) is the fabric that drops all the way from the mattress top to the floor on the front three sides. This just makes it look more neat and tailored.

There are two types of daybed trundles, a pop-up trundle or drawer trundle. The drawer or roll-out trundle simply rolls out from under the daybed to create another twin-size sleeping space, perfect for kid's sleepovers. Pop-up daybed trundles are also extremely popular, as they can transform your twin size daybed into a king size bed (76" x 80"). In the lift-up or pop-up trundle you roll out the bed and unfold the legs for support.
