Tips for Deciding the Best Under Bed Lighting

Bedroom trends come and go, but under bed lighting is here to stay. It’s affordable, easy to install, and instantly transforms your room with a warm, functional glow. A serene sanctuary is a great place to end your day.

Why it works:

• Creates a cozy, calming atmosphere

• Illuminates hard-to-see spaces for better organization

• Energy-efficient and budget-friendly

• Works in any bedroom – primary, guest, or kids’ rooms

From built-in options to simple plug-and-play LED strips, this trend is versatile and suits many styles, from minimalist to tech-forward. Best of all, it’s practical: no fumbling for a light switch during midnight water runs.

Before you buy, consider:

• Bed size and placement

• Budget

• Preferred light color and brightness

• Style and tech features (motion sensors, remotes, voice control)

Lighting options:

• LED kits: Around $60 for full-size beds, with long strips, multiple color settings, and low energy use. Great for full-frame coverage.

• Light bars: Often motion-sensor equipped; ideal for kids’ beds or nightstand shelves. Many include USB charging.

• Stick-on lights: Battery-powered, easy to install and remove. Long battery life with up to 50,000 hours.

• Color-changing lights: Add personality with customizable hues, Bluetooth, dimming, and even music sync for a smart-home vibe.

Pro tip: Experiment with placement – under the frame, headboard, or even a bedroom ottoman – for a layered effect.

Bottom line: With the right choice, under bed lighting elevates your bedroom from simple to stylish, functional, and effortlessly cozy.
