Room Doctor has eco-friendly and economical solutions! There are a variety of styles, and each bed is available in all sizes for children and adults.

This solid-wood platform bed is simple yet stylish,? made of sustainably grown, premium, southern yellow pine, grown and manufactured in the USA. The platform bed sits 15″ high off the floor, providing 10 1/2″ of space beneath for storage and for ventilation. Feng Shui principles recommend allowing free space beneath your bed to allow chi to circulate. This bed is perfect for a single mattress or futon. The unfinished solid wood is safe because there are no toxic chemicals emitted. Leave the bed unfinished, or you can easily add a non toxic finish or stain to match any decor. The bed comes in 2 compact boxes for easy transportation and ready-to-assemble (which makes finishing very simple). As allen wrenches are included, there are no tools required for you to have . If you want underbed drawers, they are sold separately (shown below).

If you think that safe, eco-friendly wood furniture is to be taken for granted, think again! Most wood furniture companies do not use wood from sustainably managed forests and plantations, and then they make it even worse by preserving it or constructing it with toxic adhesives and carcinogenic chemicals like formaldehyde that invade your body with toxic emissions. They then add insult to injury by adding poisonous paint and stains. When you find a company like Room Doctor, take advantage of their ethical standards and protect your family with Room Doctor unfinished solid wood furniture.

Bamboo is an eco-friendly resource, and its fiber makes supremely soft and breathable fabrics. This bath towel shows its superiority. A 70/30 blend of bamboo and cotton, in a plush 800-grams-per-square-meter weave, gives the towel a luxurious feel against the skin. Moisture absorption greater than cotton and a softness comparable to silk and cashmere make this fabric ideal for towels and linens. Bamboo's breathable, naturally antibacterial fibers,? help keep your bathroom from getting musty. Moisture soaks in and then evaporates quickly, thereby preventing the formation of germ nurseries.

The bamboo cotton towel looks great, comes in many collors, and has a supple draping quality. The light lustrous sheenand pretty piqué woven border at either end are attractive.? Expertly made in Turkey, check out Pinzon's bamboo cotton washcloths, hand towels, bath sheets, and bathrobes to turn your whole bathroom into a Turkish Spa.
