What a Divan Bed Actually Is: Know Before Buying
A divan bed is made up of two main parts: a solid or sprung divan bed base, and a matching headboard. Unlike a slatted frame, the base itself is upholstered and structurally solid, giving consistent support across the full surface of the mattress. Many divan bed bases also include built-in drawers, turning the space under your bed into genuinely useful storage rather than wasted room.
It’s this combination of support, storage, and clean styling that’s made divan beds a longstanding favourite in bedrooms across the UK.
Our Divan Bed Range at Super Beds
Arabella Divan Bed:
The Arabella brings a softly curved headboard to a classic divan base, striking a balance between contemporary shape and timeless comfort. It’s a strong fit for bedrooms that want a slightly softer, more rounded silhouette rather than sharp panelled lines.
Available across our full fabric range, it works equally well as a standalone base or paired with drawer or ottoman storage. A popular choice for anyone updating a bedroom without wanting anything too bold.
Beatrice Divan Bed:
The Beatrice features a classic panelled headboard that suits both modern and more traditional bedroom settings without feeling dated either way. Its structured lines give it a slightly more formal look than some of our softer designs, making it a reliable choice for primary bedrooms. It’s available with the full range of storage options, from no storage through to a complete divan ottoman bed configuration. A genuinely versatile pick if you’re not sure which style to commit to.
Daphne Divan Bed:
The Daphne is built around a low-profile headboard and clean, understated lines, making it particularly well suited to smaller or more minimalist rooms. Its compact scale means it doesn’t dominate the room visually, even in tighter UK bedroom layouts.
Despite the simpler design, it’s built on the same solid divan bed base construction as the rest of our range. A practical choice for guest rooms, box rooms, or anyone who prefers a quieter aesthetic.
Estelle Divan Bed:
The Estelle is our tallest headboard design, built to act as a genuine statement piece rather than sitting quietly in the background. It suits larger bedrooms with the wall space to let a taller headboard breathe properly.
Paired with a richer fabric like Crushed Velvet or Plush Velvet, it creates a distinctly boutique hotel feel. A strong option for anyone treating a bedroom refresh as a real style upgrade.
Genevieve Divan Bed:
The Genevieve is defined by its button-detail headboard finish, adding texture and a more tailored, luxury feel to the frame. The detailing catches the light differently depending on fabric choice, particularly striking in velvet or crushed velvet finishes. It pairs well with either drawer or ottoman storage bases depending on your practical needs.
A popular pick for customers wanting a bed that reads as a genuine design feature, not just furniture.
Buy Divan Bed With Storage Options in the UK
One of the biggest advantages of a divan bed over a standard slatted frame is the storage built into the base itself. We stock several configurations to suit different needs:
- Divan bed with drawers: choose from two, three, or four-drawer configurations built directly into the base, ideal for bedding, clothing, or general bedroom overflow.
- Divan ottoman bed: rather than drawers, an ottoman base lifts entirely from the base or side, giving you the largest storage capacity of any divan storage bed option.
If storage is a priority, our divan ottoman beds tend to offer the most usable space, while drawer bases are often easier to access day-to-day without lifting the mattress.
Choose Divan Bed Frame in Different Sizes
Divan beds come in all standard UK sizes, so getting the fit right for your room and mattress is simple:

| Small Single (2FT6) |

Always measure your room with clearance for drawers or ottoman lift space in mind, not just the footprint of the bed itself.
Shop by Fabric Type
The fabric on your divan bed base and headboard makes a bigger difference to the finished look than most people expect. Our range includes:
- Plush Velvet: soft, deep-pile texture with a subtle sheen, a consistently popular choice
- Chenille: a durable woven texture that feels warm and holds up well to daily use
- Coniston: a textured weave finish offering a slightly more casual, tactile feel
- Crushed Velvet: a light-catching, glamorous finish that adds real depth to a headboard
- Linen: a natural, breathable weave with a relaxed, understated look
- Naples: a smooth woven fabric offering durability with a neutral finish
- Soft Teddy Boucle: a cosy, textured fabric that’s become a favourite for contemporary bedrooms
- Velveto: a velvet-effect fabric offering a similar look to plush velvet at a more accessible price point
If you’re unsure which to choose, velvet and crushed velvet finishes tend to suit more formal or statement bedrooms, while linen, Coniston, and boucle finishes lean toward a softer, more relaxed look.
How to Choose the Right Divan Bed for Your Room
Working with a smaller bedroom?
The Daphne’s low-profile headboard and a small double or double base keep the room feeling open.
Want a statement centrepiece?
Estelle’s tall headboard in Crushed Velvet or Plush Velvet makes the bed the focal point of the room.
Need maximum storage?
Pair any of our named designs with a divan ottoman bed base rather than drawers for the largest capacity.
Furnishing a guest room or box room?
A Small Single or Single divan bed base without storage keeps things simple and budget-friendly.
Redoing a shared or family bedroom?
Chenille or Naples fabric offers a more durable, easier-to-clean finish for higher-traffic rooms.
Buy Your Divan Bed and Mattress Together
Pairing your divan bed with a matching mattress is usually the better value option, and it means your entire order arrives as one coordinated delivery. Our divan beds with mattress bundles work with memory foam, pocket sprung, or orthopaedic mattresses, so you can match the support level to how you actually sleep, not just what happens to be bundled.
Assembly and What’s in the Box
Every divan bed arrives with the base, headboard, and legs (where applicable) as standard, along with clear assembly instructions. Most bases require basic self-assembly, generally headboard attachment and leg fitting, and can typically be set up by one or two people within 30-45 minutes without specialist tools. If you’d rather not handle assembly yourself, get in touch with our team about assistance options available in select areas.
Caring and Maintenance Tips
A little regular care keeps your divan bed frame looking sharp for years:
- Vacuum fabric headboards and bases periodically using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust build-up.
- Blot any spills immediately with a dry cloth rather than rubbing, which can push liquid deeper into the fabric.
- Deep-pile fabrics like Plush Velvet and Crushed Velvet benefit from an occasional brush in the direction of the pile to keep the texture looking fresh.
- Avoid placing the bed in direct, prolonged sunlight, as this can cause uneven fading over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a divan bed and a divan ottoman bed?
A standard divan bed base may include drawers or no storage at all, with a fixed structure throughout. A divan ottoman bed lifts entirely from the base or side on a gas-lift mechanism, offering significantly more storage space underneath.
Do I need to buy a mattress separately, or is it included?
It depends on the listing. Many of our divan beds are available with a matching mattress bundled in, while others are sold as the base and headboard only, so always check the product page before ordering.
Which fabric is easiest to keep clean?
Tighter weaves like Chenille and Naples tend to resist marks better day to day than deeper pile fabrics like Plush Velvet or Crushed Velvet, which can show pressure marks more visibly.
Can I get a divan bed with drawers on both sides?
Yes, several of our divan bed frame options offer four-drawer configurations split across both sides of the base. Check individual product listings for exact drawer placement and configuration.
Are divan beds suitable for all mattress types?
Yes, divan bed bases work well with memory foam, pocket sprung, and orthopaedic mattresses. The solid, supportive base gives consistent performance across all mattress types, unlike slatted frames which can affect certain foam mattresses differently.
