It's no surprise to anyone who's ever embarked on a home redo that costs can add up, and our bedrooms are no exception. We factor in the price of a mattress — knowing most can run upwards of $1,000 — but it's the bed frames that often induce some serious sticker shock.
But, while pricey options might be the first to populate in your Google search, there are a number of affordable models available, too — it just takes a little more looking. So stop worrying, because as discouraging as that initial search may have been, we found that you don't have to forfeit modern and trendy styles to stay on budget. These bed frames all come in under $500 and, together, have thousands of perfect ratings.
