What is a Divan Bed Base?
A divan bed base is a type of bed frame that provides a solid base for your mattress. Made from a solid wooden or metal frame and fully upholstered in high quality fabric, they are strong and elegant. The platform top of a divan bed base ensures even weight distribution so your mattress will be supported and comfortable. That’s why divan bed bases are a popular choice for those looking for a reliable and comfortable sleeping solution. Often paired with a matching headboard, divan bed bases come in various mattress sizes and styles so you can customise to your bedroom.
Why Choose a Divan Bed Base
Choosing a divan bed base has many practical and style benefits so it’s a great choice for small or large bedrooms. Available in various sizes, divan bed bases fit any mattress type so you’ll get a perfect fit. One of the benefits of divan bases is the platform top which can make mattresses feel firmer so it’s great for those who like a solid sleeping surface. This added support will also extend the life of your mattress by reducing movement and maintaining structure, perfect for couples or individuals who like stability while sleeping.
Whether you want a traditional divan bed base or an ottoman storage base we have a wide range of sizes and fabric finishes. Colour swatches are available to order so you can see the fabrics and choose the ones that match your room. If you want to make the most of smaller spaces divan bed bases with built in drawer storage are the answer. You can keep essentials close by without cluttering the room. Options include two drawers on one side or one on each side for extra storage. We also have low divan bases for those who prefer a lower bed height without compromising on quality or style.
Divan vs Ottoman Bed Bases: Storage Options to Suit You
Understanding the difference between divan and ottoman bed bases will help you choose the right one for your storage needs. The main difference is the storage configuration. Divan bed bases have built in drawers in various configurations so you can store smaller items like bedding, clothes or accessories. This design allows you to access the drawers easily while keeping the appearance sleek.
Ottoman bed bases go a step further by using the whole under bed space. These bases lift from the side or end and reveal a large box like storage compartment perfect for storing bulkier items like blankets, duvets or seasonal clothes. This makes ottoman beds great for those with limited wardrobe space or who want maximum storage without using up extra floor space. Both types of bases are available in stylish fabric finishes and quality upholstery so they will match your room decor.
