Divan Bed FAQs
Everything you need to know before you buy
What is a divan bed?
A divan bed consists of a mattress sitting on a fabric-upholstered base that rests directly on the floor on castors. Unlike a traditional bed frame, the base is a solid or sprung unit that doubles as the bed's foundation and — in most cases — its storage. Divan beds are one of the most popular choices in the UK because they're practical, supportive, space-efficient, and available in a huge range of sizes, fabrics and mattress combinations.
What's the difference between a platform top and a sprung edge divan base?
A platform top base has a solid, firm surface across the top — typically a rigid board covered in fabric. It provides consistent, even support across the full mattress and is the recommended base for most pocket spring and memory foam mattresses. A sprung edge base has springs built into the sides and edges of the base, adding a softer, more giving feel around the perimeter. Some sleepers prefer the extra give of a sprung edge, but a platform top is generally the better all-round choice for mattress longevity and support consistency.
What storage options are available on divan beds?
Divan beds come with a variety of storage configurations. A plain base has no storage at all. Two-drawer options typically place one drawer on each side, or both on the same side if access is restricted. Four-drawer bases maximise drawer storage and work well in larger rooms. Ottoman bases lift the entire mattress to reveal a large storage space underneath — ideal for bulky items like bedding and seasonal clothing. Ottoman bases come in side-opening or end-opening configurations depending on your room layout.
Do I need a headboard with a divan bed?
A headboard isn't structurally necessary — a divan bed is a complete, usable bed without one. However, a headboard adds a finished look, protects the wall from scuffs, and gives you something to lean against when reading or watching TV in bed. Most divan beds come with a headboard fixing on the back of the base so you can add one at any time. Headboards are usually sold separately, giving you the freedom to choose a style that suits your bedroom without being tied to a particular design.
What size divan bed do I need?
The right size depends on your room dimensions and whether you sleep alone or with a partner. A double (135 x 190cm) is the most popular UK choice for couples in standard bedrooms. A king size (150 x 200cm) gives noticeably more width and length and is worth the step up if your room allows it. A super king (180 x 200cm) is the most spacious option for couples who need plenty of room. Single (90 x 190cm) and small double (120 x 190cm) sizes work well for single sleepers or smaller rooms.
Can I choose any mattress for a divan base?
In most cases yes — divan bases are compatible with the majority of mattress types including pocket spring, memory foam, memory gel, open coil and hybrid. The main consideration is the base type: a platform top base suits almost any mattress and is the most versatile option. If you're buying a divan set, the base and mattress are already matched to work together. If you're replacing just the mattress on an existing divan, ensure the new mattress is the same size and check the manufacturer's guidance on recommended base types.
Are divan beds good for storage in small bedrooms?
Divan beds are one of the best storage solutions for small bedrooms precisely because the storage is built into the bed itself — it doesn't take up any additional floor space. An ottoman divan in particular can hold a significant amount — equivalent to a large chest of drawers — without adding a single square metre to your room's footprint. This makes them especially popular in flats, children's rooms, and guest rooms where floor space is limited.
How long does a divan bed last?
The divan base itself is extremely durable and will typically last 15 to 20 years or more. It's usually the mattress that needs replacing first — most quality pocket spring or memory foam mattresses last 8 to 12 years. When the mattress reaches the end of its life, you can simply replace it without replacing the base, making a divan a very cost-effective long-term investment. Signs the base needs replacing include visible sagging, broken springs (on sprung edge bases), or damage to the fabric or frame.
Can a divan bed be split for delivery?
Yes — most divan bases in double, king and super king sizes are supplied as two separate halves that bolt or link together once in position. This makes delivery significantly easier, particularly for houses with narrow staircases, tight landings or difficult access. The join between the two halves is hidden under the mattress and has no effect on the sleeping surface. If you have a particularly challenging access route, it's worth checking with us at the point of order so we can advise on delivery options.
What fabric options are available for divan beds?
Divan bases are upholstered in a wide range of fabrics to suit any bedroom décor. Common options include plain weave fabrics in neutral tones such as grey, slate, cream and natural, as well as richer colours and textured finishes. Many brands offer velvet, chenille or bouclé options for a more premium look. The fabric covers the visible sides and panels of the base, so it's worth choosing a colour and texture that works with your headboard and wider bedroom scheme. If you'd like to see the fabric before buying, samples are usually available on request.

Memory Foam FAQ's

What is memory foam?

Memory foam is a specialized polyurethane foam engineered to conform to your body's shape in response to heat and pressure. Originally developed by NASA in the 1960s, it was designed to enhance seat cushioning and crash protection for astronauts.

How Memory Foam Works:

  • Body Contouring – Softens when exposed to body heat, molding to your shape to provide pressure relief.

  • Even Weight Distribution – Reduces pressure points and alleviates joint pain.

  • Slow Response Time – Gradually returns to its original shape after pressure is removed, minimizing motion transfer.

Types of Memory Foam:

  • Traditional Memory Foam – Offers deep contouring but may trap heat.

  • Gel-Infused Memory Foam – Incorporates cooling gel to help regulate temperature.

  • Open-Cell Memory Foam – Features a breathable structure to enhance airflow.

Key Benefits:
Exceptional pressure relief for joints and spine
Minimizes motion transfer, making it perfect for couples
Ensures even weight distribution for balanced support

What are the benefits of a memory foam mattress?

A memory foam mattress provides numerous benefits, making it a top choice for comfort and support. Here are the key advantages:

  1. Superior Pressure Relief
    Contours to Your Body – Evenly distributes weight, alleviating pressure on joints and muscles.
    Great for Side Sleepers – Cushions shoulders and hips to prevent discomfort.

  2. Excellent Spinal Alignment
    Supports the natural curves of your spine, helping to reduce back pain.
    Ideal for individuals with orthopedic issues or chronic pain.

  3. Motion Isolation (Perfect for Couples)
    Absorbs movement, ensuring one person’s tossing and turning doesn’t disturb the other.

  4. No Noise or Squeaking
    Unlike spring mattresses, memory foam operates silently when you move.

  5. Hypoallergenic & Dust Mite Resistant
    Perfect for allergy sufferers, as it resists dust mites, mold, and allergens.

  6. Durable & Long-Lasting
    With proper care, it can last 7–10 years and resists sagging better than traditional mattresses.

  7. Compatible with Adjustable Beds
    Flexible enough to work seamlessly with adjustable bed bases.

Is memory foam good for back pain?

Memory foam can be highly effective for alleviating back pain, but the firmness level and quality of the foam are crucial factors.

Why Memory Foam Helps with Back Pain:
Spinal Alignment – Memory foam molds to your body, helping maintain a neutral spine position.
Pressure Relief – Evenly distributes weight to reduce strain on the lower back.
Motion Isolation – Minimizes disturbances from movement, promoting better rest and recovery.

Best Memory Foam Firmness for Back Pain:

  • Medium-Firm (Best for Most People) – Offers a balance of support and comfort.

  • Firm (Best for Back Sleepers) – Keeps the spine aligned without excessive sinking.

  • Soft (Best for Side Sleepers) – Cushions shoulders and hips while supporting spinal alignment.

Memory Foam vs. Pocket Springs for Back Pain:

  • Memory Foam – Excels in contouring and pressure relief.

  • Pocket Springs – Provides firmer support with improved airflow.

  • Hybrid (Memory Foam + Springs) – Combines the contouring of memory foam with the support of springs, making it an excellent choice for back pain sufferers.

Do memory foam mattresses get hot?

Traditional memory foam mattresses can trap heat, but advancements in design have introduced features to enhance cooling.

Why Does Memory Foam Sleep Hot?
Heat Retention – The dense structure of memory foam can trap body heat.
Slow Response Time – The foam conforms closely to the body, limiting airflow.

How to Keep Memory Foam Cool:
Gel-Infused Memory Foam – Contains cooling gel beads to absorb and disperse heat.
Open-Cell Memory Foam – Features tiny air pockets to improve airflow.
Graphite or Copper-Infused Foam – Helps draw heat away from the body.
Breathable Mattress Covers – Opt for moisture-wicking or cooling fabrics like bamboo or Tencel.
Hybrid Mattresses – Combine memory foam with pocket springs to enhance airflow.

Tips to Stay Cool on a Memory Foam Mattress:

  • Use a cooling mattress topper (gel or latex).

  • Choose lightweight, breathable bedding (cotton or bamboo).

  • Use a fan or a bed frame with good ventilation to improve airflow.
