what are divan beds?

Divan beds consist of a mattress placed on top of a solid base. They’re designed to provide a comfortable and supportive sleeping surface and often come with built-in storage options such as drawers or ottomans. Divan beds are a popular choice due to their versatility and space-saving features.

what are the benefits of a divan bed with storage underneath?

A divan bed base with storage underneath offers several advantages:

  • It provides a space-saving solution as you can neatly store away various items, such as extra bedding, pillows, or seasonal clothing. This helps to keep your bedroom clutter-free and creates a more organised living space. 
  • The storage compartment is easily accessible, allowing you to retrieve your belongings conveniently whenever needed. 
  • Beds that have storage underneath often feature a sturdy base, providing excellent support and durability for a restful night's sleep.

how to put a divan bed together

Instructions on how to put up a divan bed will differ depending on which style and storage options you go for. We have full instruction manuals within our assembly guide.

how to fit a headboard to a divan bed

  1. First of all, you need to identify which end of your bed is designed for a headboard to be attached to.
  1. Then, use scissors to carefully pierce the fabric where the hole can be felt underneath the stickers. 

For strutted headboards:

  1. Place the headboard bolt into the hold and fasten into place. Lower the headboard into position before fully tightening to the bolt.
  1. Headboard heights can be adjusted by amending the position of the screws on the back of the board. There are 5 different positions in which you can adjust the height of your board to allow it to sit nicely above your mattress.

For full height headboards:

  1. Line up the headboard hole with the divan hole.
  1. Thread the headboard bolt through them both and tighten into position. If additional fittings have been supplied, please use these instead of the standard fittings issued with the divan base.
  1. Pierce the divan with the bolts and screw into the base until the shorter thread is no longer visible.
  1. Position the headboard in place.

how to stop a divan bed from squeaking

There are a few things you can do to try and stop your divan from squeaking:

  • Tighten all fittings, including legs, castors, and any joining bolts 
  • Check the bed is level and stable on the floor and use padding if you need to
  • Inspect where the mattress meets the base and reduce friction with a non-slip pad 
  • Check drawers or storage mechanisms for loose or dry parts
  • Add felt pads or rubber washers between contact points to reduce movement noise 
  • Re-tighten headboard fixings, as loose connections often cause squeaking 

are divan beds comfortable?

Divans are generally a very comfortable option when choosing a bed frame. They’re built with a solid, supportive base which helps your mattress perform at its best. Because the surface of a divan is flat and sturdy, there’s no sagging like you may get from slats, leading to a more stable and even support.

are divan beds stronger than slats?

Divan beds are typically considered stronger and more supportive than slatted bed bases as they have a solid base with no gaps, meaning the mattress is supported evenly across its entire surface. Plus, slats can loosen, warp or break over time while a divan base is more rigid and stable.
