What Size Is A Double Ottoman Bed?

A double ottoman bed typically measures 135cm x 190cm, also known as 4ft 6in by 6ft 3in, making it the most popular bed size in the UK. This size offers comfortable sleeping space for couples and is equally suited to single sleepers who prefer extra room.

Double ottoman beds provide ample under bed storage, making them ideal for storing seasonal clothing, extra bedding, and personal items while keeping the bedroom clutter free. The storage depth is usually around 20cm to 30cm, depending on the style of bed chosen, offering generous space without compromising comfort.

What Are The Benefits Of A Double Ottoman Bed?

A double ottoman bed is a practical solution if you want more bedroom space without adding extra furniture. The biggest benefit is maximised storage, with generous hidden space inside the bed frame that is ideal for storing bedding, clothes, seasonal items, and everyday essentials, helping keep your room tidy and clutter free.

Most double ottoman storage beds are fitted with easy to use gas lift pistons that open smoothly and make lifting the mattress simple, even when used daily. These lift systems are designed to be strong and supportive, and can typically handle mattresses weighing up to 100kg, so you can choose the comfort you want without worrying about access to your storage.

Style is another key benefit. A double ottoman bed frame comes in many finishes and designs to suit your home, from modern fabric beds to plush velvet and sleek faux leather. You can also choose the opening type that works best for your layout, including end opening and side opening, making it easier to fit into smaller rooms or awkward spaces while still giving you easy access to your storage.

What Types And Styles Of Double Ottoman Beds Are Available?

Double ottoman beds are a popular choice because they combine everyday comfort with smart ottoman storage. A double ottoman double bed gives you ample room to sleep comfortably while helping you make the most of your bedroom space, especially if you are replacing an old bed and want a more practical solution. As storage beds, they are designed to keep your room feeling organised by giving you generous hidden storage inside the base, ideal for bedding, clothes, and other items you would rather keep out of sight.

One of the best features ottoman beds offer is the easy access lift. Most ottoman bed frames are equipped with a smooth gas lift system and lift up mechanism, so opening the storage compartment feels simple and controlled. This makes it easy to use the storage space regularly, and many designs can support a heavy mattress, often up to 100kg, without compromising performance. The result is extra storage that is genuinely useful, not awkward or difficult to reach.

Style is another big benefit. Our double ottoman bed collection includes a wide range of bed frames and double bed frames in different materials and colours, including fabric, faux leather, and wooden double ottoman beds in durable wood and oak finishes. You can choose from different types such as end opening or side lifting ottoman beds, depending on your room layout, and many options are crafted with a stylish headboard to create a modern, soft, cosy, luxury look. Whether you are shopping for a double, looking at small double ottoman beds, or comparing to single ottoman beds and even super king ottoman beds, a double ottoman gives you the ideal balance of comfort, storage, and versatility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you’re buying your first bed or upgrading to something new, we make the process smooth from start to finish. And whenever you need us, our team’s right here to guide you.

What Are The Exact Dimensions Of A Double Ottoman Bed In The UK?

A standard UK double ottoman bed is 135cm wide and 190cm long, which is 4ft 6in by 6ft 3in. These measurements refer to the mattress size, so a double ottoman bed frame is designed to fit a UK double mattress measuring 135cm x 190cm.

The overall frame can be slightly larger than the mattress. As a guide, double ottoman bed frames are typically around 10cm longer because the total length often includes the headboard design and frame finish. If you are planning for a smaller room or comparing small double ottoman beds, always check the external measurements on the product page to make sure you have enough clearance for the bed and easy access to the lift up storage.

Is A Double Ottoman Bed A Good Choice For Storage In Smaller Bedrooms?

Yes, if you are trying to maximise storage in a smaller bedroom, a double ottoman bed is one of the most practical upgrades you can make. Our double ottoman storage beds give you generous hidden storage inside the base, so you can store bedding, clothes, and everyday essentials without adding extra drawers or bulky furniture that takes up valuable floor space.

Because the storage sits within the double ottoman bed frame, you are using the same footprint as your bed, making it a smart choice for compact rooms. Many of our ottoman beds are equipped with a smooth gas lift system, so lifting the mattress and accessing the storage compartment is easy and controlled. You can also choose the right opening style for your layout, with end opening or side opening options available across our range.

Which Opening Types And Fabric Options Are Available With Double Ottoman Beds?

Our double ottoman beds are available in two main opening styles, so you can choose what works best for your bedroom layout. End opening ottoman bed frames lift from the foot end, which is ideal if you have space at the bottom of the bed. Side opening double ottoman bed frames lift from the left or right side, making them a great option for tighter rooms where access at the foot is limited. Both options use a smooth gas lift system and lift up mechanism for easy access to the hidden storage underneath your mattress.

In terms of finishes, our double ottoman bed collection includes a wide range of materials and colours to suit every style. Choose from soft, cosy fabric beds, modern plush velvet, easy to wipe faux leather, and even wooden double ottoman beds if you prefer a sleek wood or oak look. Many designs can also be paired with a matching headboard, helping you create a stylish bedroom setup while still enjoying practical ottoman storage and extra storage space.
