Including beautiful headboard designs and gorgeous colours, you can fully customise your Ottoman bed and make the most out of your storage.
In this guide, we’ll take a look at the key benefits of Ottoman beds, as well as the ways that you can make the most out of their internal storage. We’ll also unpack the different sizes that we offer, and how each one can benefit couples, depending on your needs. So, put your feet up and relax as you gain a better insight into Ottoman beds and why they benefit couples!
What Is An Ottoman Bed?
An Ottoman bed is designed with a gaslift system that lifts up and reveals plenty of storage space underneath. Created with specialised mechanisms that easily glide and lift up, you can conveniently lift the base of your Ottoman bed to access any underneath storage.
They’re ideal for couples who have a lot of belongings that need to be stored discreetly and safely, especially if you've already maxed out the storage in your wardrobe, attic or chest of drawers. If both of you have a lot of large items such as suitcases, extra bedding and seasonal clothes, all of these can be stored underneath the Ottoman bed to make a practical and elegant storage solution.
What's even better is that you can both optimize the storage space that's underneath the Ottoman bed by using vacuum packed bags, storage dividers and containers - you can really have each of your designated areas for your belongings.
Upholstered with the finest materials, our ottoman beds can be customised with different coloured fabrics and finishes, so you can really get creative when it comes to styling your dream bed and enhancing your sleep quality. We also have a wide variety of sizes to choose from, Including small double beds for smaller master bedrooms and super king-sized ottoman beds for spacious master bedrooms.
Plus, our Ottoman Beds are unique since they can be customised with side opening storage or end opening storage allowing for better access for different individuals and alternative room layouts.
Key Benefits Of Ottoman Beds For Couples
Now you have a better insight into what an ottoman bed is, why don't we take a look at their key benefits for couples?
It's psychologically proven that having a tidy and decluttered space can improve your mental health and sleep quality. This is so important when it comes to couples sharing a living space - you have twice as many belongings shared in one home!
Ottoman beds can totally transform the ways in which you and your partner can store all of your belongings. Creating an organised system underneath your bed can make both of your lifestyles a lot easier during your daily routines. Whether it's smaller items that you're looking for, such as toiletries and electronics, or larger items such as blankets and bedding, you'll be able to find anything that you need underneath your Ottoman bed thanks to this practical and elegant storage method.
Ottoman beds don't only benefit couples due to their maximized storage space, but they are also fantastic for couples who get warm during the night. Ottoman beds are designed with slats on the base, allowing for improved air circulation. So, if one of you tends to be a hot sleeper and you’re often tossing and turning throughout the night, ottoman beds might be a great solution for you.
For those with alternative room layouts, such as having a bed that’s rested against a wall, we also offer side opening ottoman beds as well as end opening ones. So no matter what your room shape is, you'll have easy access to the storage space underneath your bed. It’ll make your life simpler!
Some Potential Drawbacks Of Ottoman Beds
As opposed to our Divan Beds, our Ottoman Beds tend to be on the more expensive side. This is due to the fact that they’re designed with more mechanisms for the gas-lift system, and strong upholstery to resist a lot of wear and tear over the years. However, they make a very good investment for couples if you're both looking for a comfortable and practical storage solution that gives you better restful nights.
Many people suggest that ottoman beds are heavy to lift, but with our gas lift system and hydraulic mechanisms, we try to ensure that our ottoman beds are as easy and as convenient as possible for you to access your underneath storage without too much hassle.
The gas lift system may also become a little bit squeaky as time goes on and the more that you lift it up. However, there's a simple solution to this - you can easily use some oil that’s specific for these kinds of beds so that the gas-lift system glides more fluently and squeaks less.
Choosing The Right Size For Couples
Choosing the right size Ottoman bed is a great idea to improve your sleep quality and storage, so why don't we take a look at the different options that we offer and who they will benefit from?
In our Ottoman bed range, We offer four different sizes of double beds that are designed for couples. This includes our 4ft Foot Small Ottoman Bed (1.2m) all the way up to a 6ft Super King Sized Ottoman Bed (a whopping 1.8 metres wide! ).
Our small 4 foot Ottoman Beds are particularly good for couples with small master bedrooms, in small apartments with limited square footage. They also work well in loft conversions with restricted space and smaller guest bedrooms. Couples who like a more intimate feel and like to snuggle close together when they sleep will benefit from this size as it’s a cosier, smaller option.
If you're living with your partner and you have a large spacious master bedroom, then why not indulge in the Six Foot Super King Sized Ottoman Bed? It provides ample space for both you and your partner to stretch out, with each side being the equivalent size of a single bed. So if you've been tossing and turning in the past and you both haven't been able to sleep due to the limited space, this option might be a great one for both of you. Inside, you can discreetly store countless items to declutter your living space - this size option has the largest amount of internal storage, so you can really go to town with all the things that you want to organise.
Ottoman Beds vs. Traditional Beds for Couples
Despite traditional bed frames being high quality options for couples and families that can also last for many years, the Ottoman bed can be a step further when it comes to housing all of your storage and belongings. With a traditional bed, storing your belongings isn't really an option in most cases - an Ottoman bed is great for those who need a lot of storage space.
Due to the amount of storage that the Ottoman bed offers, you don't have to invest in extra furniture such as wardrobes and drawers in order to store all of your belongings. This is a great way to save money, time and space!
How To Make The Most Out Of The Internal Storage Space
Making the most out of your storage space in your Ottoman bed is a great way to keep everything organised and facilitate your daily routines. Let's take a look at some examples that you and your partner could use to implement a well organised system underneath your Ottoman bed.
The first thing is to use storage boxes and dividers to separate each of your items and keep things safe. For example, in one box you can store your electronics and in others, you can store your shoes and bedding. This is a great idea to keep everything separated, so you and your partner can find each of your belongings when you're looking for them without things getting mixed up.
A second thing that you can use to make the most out of the internal storage in your Ottoman bed is vacuum packed bags. These are bags that keep things air tight and two dimensional, and they’re particularly great for bedding that tends to expand such as pillows, duvets and throws. You can keep them flat and stack things on top of each other, making the most out of your space. If you fancy being even more organised, you can even label these bags so you know what's what when it comes to looking for them in the future.
To keep everything smelling fresh and clean, you can use some scented sachets or scent boosters to really make sure that your internal storage is kept smelling fresh.
