Divan bed buying guide

When it comes to finding the right bed, comfort, practicality, and style all play an important role. A divan bed is one of the most popular choices for UK homes, offering versatility and excellent value. At Linthorpe Beds, we specialise in divan bases with and without mattresses, giving you the flexibility to choose exactly what suits your needs. With showrooms on Portrack Lane, Stockton-on-Tees, and Russell Street, Darlington, you can explore our wide range of divan beds and mattresses in person.

Why Choose a Divan Bed?

Divan beds are a practical option for anyone looking to combine comfort with storage. Unlike traditional bed frames, a divan base is designed to be sturdy and compact. Many customers choose them for their stylish upholstered finish, which complements both modern and traditional bedrooms.

Consider the Right Base

At Linthorpe Beds, we offer divan bases with a variety of features to suit your lifestyle. Drawers are available as an optional extra, giving you the choice of additional storage without compromising on style. For smaller rooms, a no-drawer base may be the best option to maximise floor space. Whether you prefer a supportive platform top base or a softer sprung edge, the right choice depends on your comfort preferences and the mattress you plan to use.

Choosing the Mattress

The mattress is just as important as the base, and we stock a wide selection to help you find the ideal match. From pocket spring to memory foam and hybrid mattresses, Linthorpe Beds has options for every type of sleeper. Consider your preferred sleeping position and level of firmness when making a decision. For example, side sleepers may benefit from a softer mattress that cushions pressure points, while back sleepers often prefer firmer support.

Style and Upholstery Options

Divan beds are available in a variety of fabrics and colours, making it easy to match your new bed to your existing décor. At our Stockton and Darlington showrooms, you’ll find divan bases in everything from classic neutral tones to bold, statement fabrics. Many of our models also come with the option to add a stylish headboard, giving your bedroom a polished and coordinated look.

Sizing Up Your Space

Before choosing your divan bed, it’s important to measure your bedroom carefully. Divan beds are available in standard UK sizes, from single and small double through to king and super king. Consider not only the bed itself but also the space you’ll need to move around comfortably. If you opt for drawers, make sure there’s enough clearance to open them fully without obstruction.
