Ottoman Beds

Moved in to a new house but storage was an oversight? Want to empty your airing cupboard, but don’t know where to put anything? Need somewhere to store that huge winter duvet? Maybe you need somewhere to hide the milkman? (We were kidding about that last one.)

Welcome to the ottoman section - here we have a wide range of storage beds that maximise the storage space otherwise lost under your beds footprint. Sometimes drawers will suffice, but ottomans are designed for more than just light items. This may be the best solution if you are bulging at the rafters and don’t fancy seeing all the ‘’cherished’’ items you’ve stowed under your bedstead. Some people use a shallow divan with an old style valance but with an ottoman storage bed you don’t have to bend down on your hands and knees to access to your treasures.

There are several types of ottoman we sell so read the below if you need help choosing the right one. To lift the mattress and lid most are powered by gas struts making access to the interior easy.

Bedstead Ottomans:

Usually these are an all-in-one solution and as most ottomans are upholstered with fabric, the key point here over a divan style ottoman is easier access into the property as they break down into their constituent components (headboard, side rails, slats and footboard). Usually the headboard is the most awkward size to get into the house.

Divan Ottomans:

Usually sturdier and offering deeper and stronger storage than the bedstead version, a storage divan like this will be split into two large base sections which allows you to partition storage into ‘his’ and ‘hers’ sides. Again these are covered in fabric but usually have either a handle or inconspicuous access point to allow you to lift the bed

Electric Ottomans:

Save yourself the energy and let an electric motor lift the ottoman and mattress for you.
