The Benefits and Options of Double Divan Bases
A double divan base offers a practical and stylish foundation for your bed. Whether you're looking to maximise storage or elevate your bedroom's aesthetics, a double divan base can be the perfect solution. With a variety of options available and a reputation for durability, it’s no surprise that divan bases are one of the most popular bed choices in the UK.
Divan Bases vs Bed Frames
One of the main differences between a divan base and a bed frame is the space-saving design. Bed frames, often take up more space due to their structure. Double divan bed bases are designed to be the same size as the mattress, which helps to maximise floor space.
The other main option is choice, almost all divan bases come with a huge range of options to choose from. Most double bed frames do not come with this level of choice.
Options Available for Double Divan Bases
Base Type: When choosing a double divan base, you have the option of a regular base or a low base on legs. A regular base sits on glides or castors and can have added storage, a low base comes with a choice of legs so you can ensure it is the correct height for you.
Top Type: Divan bases come with different top types, including a platform top, sprung top, or reinforced top. A platform top provides firm support, ideal for those who prefer a sturdier sleeping surface. A sprung top adds a layer of comfort, as it features springs in the base that work in tandem with your mattress. The reinforced top offers extra durability for heavier sleepers or those looking for long-lasting support.
Fabric Choices: Customise your divan base with a range of fabric choices. Whether you prefer a classic neutral tone or something more vibrant, you can select a fabric that complements your bedroom décor. From soft velvets to durable woven fabrics, your base can be both functional and stylish.
Storage Options: One of the standout features of divan bases is the storage options. Choose from drawers in a range of configurations depending on your storage needs. For maximum space-saving, consider an ottoman divan base, which provides the most storage by lifting the mattress up to reveal a spacious compartment underneath.
Optional Matching Headboard: For a complete look, pair your double divan base with a matching headboard. Available in the same fabric choices as your base, a headboard adds a touch of sophistication and style to your bed setup.
How to Care for Your Double Divan Base
Caring for your new divan base ensures it stays in top condition for years to come. Start by using a soft, damp cloth to wipe down any fabric sections to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals, especially on upholstered parts, as they can damage the material.
For divan bases with drawers, regularly check the runners to ensure they glide smoothly, and avoid overfilling them to prevent strain on the drawers. For ottoman divan bases, always lift the mattress with both hands, ensuring even pressure on the mechanism.
By following these simple care tips, your double divan base will remain a sturdy and stylish addition to your bedroom for years to come.
