How do you choose the right divan base and storage

Platform top or sprung edge

Platform top feels a touch firmer and keeps the mattress flat and supported. Sprung edge adds a hint of bounce and works nicely with medium and plush feels. Match the base to the mattress you love for a balanced finish.

Pick the storage that fits your routine

Choose a 2 drawer divan for simple access on one side or both. Step up to a 4 drawer divan for everyday linen and sock duty. Need big capacity, try an ottoman divan that lifts smoothly at the side or the foot.

Continental drawers near bedsides

Shorter head end drawers avoid clashing with tables. Use full size drawers at the foot for bulky bedding. Mix and match layouts for real world access that just works.

Headboard styling and fixings

Choose a fabric headboard to set the mood, then bolt through the base for a solid feel. Browse divans with headboards or pair any base with styles like wingback, chesterfield, and tall headboards.

How do you measure a divan so delivery and daily use feel easy

Drawer clearance and walkways

Measure bedside widths and leave space for the full drawer glide path. If both sides are tight, use continental drawers near the head or switch to an ottoman lift for top access.

Stairs and door widths

Larger sizes arrive in two sections that clip together upstairs. Check narrow turns, then skim delivery and returns for the plan. Glides or castors go on in minutes once you are in the room.

Headboard height and sockets

Measure wall lights and sockets so the headboard clears neatly. Tall designs love taller lamps for balance. If space is snug, choose a mid height headboard for a calm look.

Which size suits your space and sleep style

Single 3ft

Kids, teens, and guest rooms. Compact storage that still works.

Small Double 4ft

Cosy couples or luxe solo. Drawer layouts keep floors clear.

Double 4ft6

Classic size with practical four drawer options.

King 5ft

Extra shoulder room plus generous storage choices.

Super King 6ft

Suite energy with ottoman divans for serious capacity.

Which fabrics and colours suit your light and flooring

Fabric guide

Velvet glows, chenille is soft and family friendly, linen look feels modern and calm, leather look wipes clean. We will match fabric to your room light and routine.

Little design wins

Echo the headboard fabric for a tailored set, or go tone on tone with bedding for boutique calm. Choose glides for hard floors and castors for carpets if you like easy moves.

Which mattress pairs best with a divan, and will it fit

Pocket sprung

Airflow and responsive support. A classic partner for divans.

Memory foam

Contour and quiet motion for partner peace.

Pillow top

Plush hotel surface on a supportive base.

Orthopaedic

Firmer alignment for posture fans and back sleepers.

Pairing is simple because we follow UK sizes. Compare feels in the full mattress range and match to your base and sleep style.

Delivery, assembly, and care

We deliver with care and common sense. Divans arrive in sensible sections, clip together fast, then you pop on glides or castors and attach the headboard. See delivery and returns, check payments, and keep things fresh with a breathable protector. Light vacuuming and quick blot on spills help fabrics stay sharp, more tips live in Care and Maintenance.

FAQs

Does a divan come with a headboard

Some sets do, others let you choose your style. See divans with headboards or add your favourite later with simple bolt through fixings.

Is the mattress included

Bases and mattresses are usually sold separately. Pick your feel in the mattress range and you are set.

Will drawers clear my bedsides

Measure bedside width and leave space for the drawer path. Use continental drawers near the head if tables sit close to the frame.

Ottoman divan or drawers, which is better

Ottoman divans give the most capacity and hide bulky items. Drawers are faster for daily socks and sheets. Choose based on what you reach for most.

How long is assembly

Quick. Clip sections, add glides or castors, attach the headboard, and you are done. Instructions are clear and friendly.

Which base is best for firm support

Platform top feels firmer under most mattresses. For a touch of give, choose sprung edge and pair with your preferred firmness.
