Trundle Bed Trundle

A trundle bed trundle is the lower, pull-out component of a trundle bed, usually fitted with a mattress and stored on a rolling or sliding frame beneath the main bed. In simple terms, it’s a hidden second bed that can be pulled out whenever extra sleeping space is needed. The main reason Australians love a trundle is its versatility — providing an extra bed without taking up additional floor space.

House of Isabella Australia offers stylish trundle bed trundles as part of a curated trundle bed selection, with Buy Now, Pay Later options via Afterpay & Zip, fast delivery Australia-wide, and Australian-based customer support.

  • Wood: Offers a classic or rustic aesthetic with a warm finish.

How to Choose a Trundle Bed Trundle

Selecting the right trundle involves considering size, mattress type, frame material, and intended usage:

Step 1: Measure the Space

  • Check the clearance under the main bed and the room layout to ensure the trundle can roll out easily.

Step 2: Select a Mattress

  • Memory Foam: Comfortable, adapts to body shape.

  • Innerspring: Traditional, supportive, and firm.

  • Hybrid: Offers a balance of support and softness.

Step 3: Frame Material

  • Wood: Warm, classic look; often paired with storage options.

  • Metal: Sleek, modern, durable, and easy to move.

Step 4: Intended Usage

  • Guest Room: Focus on comfort and ease of setup.

  • Kids’ Room: Look for safety features like low height and smooth edges.

  • Compact Space: Storage trundles add functionality without taking extra floor space.

Step 5: Weight Capacity

  • Ensure the trundle frame and mattress can safely support the intended user.

Styling Advice

Even a functional item like a trundle can enhance your room’s décor:

  1. Coordinate Bedding

    • Use matching or complementary duvets, throws, and cushions to make both beds look cohesive.

  2. Add Rugs for Warmth

    • Soft rugs underneath the trundle create a cosy atmosphere and prevent scratches.

  3. Use the Trundle as a Feature

    • Wooden or upholstered trundles can complement the room’s colour palette.

  4. Combine with Storage Solutions

    • Floating shelves, bedside tables, or baskets under the main bed create a clutter-free room.

  5. Flexible Room Layout

    • Keep the trundle hidden during the day for extra space and pull it out at night for guests.

I ordered two of these doormats and they are excellent quality and do not shed. The rubber backing will add to their longevity and they look very elegant and minimalist by the doors.

Perfection

This is exactly what I've been looking for. Love the organific 'not perfect' shape of the vase. I was hoping for maybe a little larger but am going to elevate it on a travertine plinth.. Perfect!
