Ottoman Beds

Part of completing your dream bedroom is having a bed that is comfortable but also suits the needs of your space. Ottoman beds use the large amount of space between your mattress and the floor that is often neglected. This space provides an ideal area for storing anything from spare bedding and towels to shoes and handbags. An ottoman bed will suit most styles of bedroom perfectly, but here are some things to think about when considering whether it’s for you.

What sizes are available for an ottoman bed frame?

• Single ‐ For small bedrooms, a single ottoman bed is ideal. When space is at a premium, having extra space to keep items is a huge bonus. When the storage is contained within part of the bed that is usually unused, it’s even better!
• Double - A double ottoman bed gives you enough space to share a bed comfortably with your partner while also providing ample room beneath to keep your things.
• Small Double - If you don’t have enough room to accommodate a double. A small double ottoman averages at 15cm narrower than a double, meaning it will fit in smaller bedrooms.
• King – At 200cm tall and 150cm wide, an ottoman king size bed provides plenty of sleeping space as well as an abundance of storage within the bed frame.
• Super King – For ultimate luxury, a super king size ottoman can’t be beaten. This frame boasts an 180cm wide base, allowing you ample room to store things.

What are the benefits of ottoman beds?

Ottoman beds offer the most space out of all storage bed bases, with a lift‐up lid which makes use of all the space the frame provides. When you consider all the things you have to keep in your bedroom (especially if you share it with a partner), it can be a real struggle to fit it all in without limiting the size of your bedroom furniture . An ottoman storage bed solves a lot of those issues with the vast space provided, designed specifically for storage.

As well as for couples, ottoman storage beds can work particularly well for children that share a bedroom. The extra storage gives your kids a place to put away their things neatly without having to fight over wardrobe space or having bulky toy boxes taking up valuable floor space in the bedroom.

Choosing your ottoman bed style

The construction of ottoman beds means they are upholstered, giving your bedroom an added texture and high‐quality finish.

Some ottoman beds come with headboards , ranging from fresh, contemporary styles with squared edges in neutral mink, to vintage, romantic styles with buttons in grey fabric. There are also leather, velvet and woven fabrics to choose from to ensure you get a style that suits your décor perfectly.

For the ultimate luxury and comfort, a TV ottoman bed might be the right choice for you. These have a TV in the foot-end that is raised and lowered using a remote control, allowing you to have the perfect cosy weekend lie in.

Are there any other types of storage beds?

If you aren’t quite convinced by ottoman beds for storage, there are plenty of other storage beds you can choose. Similar, but generally cheaper, are divan beds . Like ottomans, they take advantage of the space between your mattress and floor. The only difference is this storage space is accessible via drawers at the side of the bed, as opposed to lifting the mattress.
