Right, so DP managed to break our new bed beyond repair by trying to do 'a Bruce Lee' kick flip to get up, you know instead of sensibly just getting out of bed like a normal person. So we need a new bed, despite only buying the current one 6 months ago. We currently have a king size bed but now that DD cosleeps with us there isn't really enough room as we all like to starfish. She still feeds frequently through the night at 7 months so I doubt she will be going into her own room any time soon so we are considering getting a super king.
They are 30cm wider than a king size though, and although we will appreciate the extra space our bed is already wider than the chimney breast it is pushed up against and I don't know if an even bigger bed will look ridiculous. There would be space if I moved the bedside drawers over a bit, as well as to walk around the bed but would it look strange? I am not too bothered about having a headboard as I think that will look weird but the pillows might fall off the back because of the narrow chimney breast. Also going to get a hideous divan base with drawers as we are struggling for storage.
So MN jury what's the verdict? New King size or switch to Super King? Photo attached for clarity as I may not have explained well
