Most people sleep over 27 years, according to research. Incredible, right? We will sleep 236,520 hours or more. Put that way, it’s obvious we should buy a bed wisely. Choosing a bed with the right support should be our top priority for comfort.
But if we’re spending a lot on a bed, we should get the most out of it. Ottoman beds offer many benefits beyond comfort, making them a top choice for me.
I wanted to share the top five reasons to consider ottoman beds when buying a bed.
1. Ottoman beds offer extra storage
I put ottoman beds first because they offer a lot of storage. I need my ottoman bed in my tiny two-bedroom flat. Without the storage, a bedstead frame or divan bed would lessen my bedroom’s storage space.
Happily, we have a loft, but sometimes you want to keep frequently used items close. The ottoman bed’s storage space is ideal for these items. We keep our spare bedding and regularly used bags and backpacks in ours. We have no other venue for them.
Find ottoman beds with an enclosed ottoman base rather than a floor-mounted one. Quality is best to protect your ottoman bed contents. When it comes to ottoman beds and seeking a better bed company, it’s essential to consider factors such as quality, customer reviews, warranty, and value for money.
2. Ottoman beds are convenient.
Indeed, ottoman beds make their contents accessible. They’re not just convenient. Boxes or vacuum bags under the bed and divan bed pull-out drawers are harder to access than the storage.
For easier opening and closing, most divan ottoman beds have four gas pistons. This assisted mechanism supports the mattress and bedding so you can open and close the bed without taking anything out. Thus, no heavy lifting.
Hydraulic arms prevent the mattress from closing unexpectedly, which could cause injuries.
You can also open two ways. Other ottoman beds hinge on the side, while others hinge on top by the headboard. Take the room layout into account and choose the option with the easiest access.
3. Ottoman beds come in all styles
No need to sacrifice style with the wide range of ottoman beds available today. The options are endless for an ottoman bed, whether you want a traditional one with button tufting, a modern one with vertical stitching, or one with a large statement headboard.
There are many fabrics and colors to choose from, so you can find the perfect ottoman bed.
4. Ottoman beds come in all sizes
Size, too. The best option for your space doesn’t have to be limited. From 2’6″ small single ottoman beds to 6′ Super King ottoman beds, ottoman beds come in many sizes.
5. Ottoman beds help keep you organized
Lastly, having an ottoman bed in your bedroom will help you stay more organized. Because we spend most of our time in our bedrooms sleeping, it’s easier to forget how crucial it is to keep our bedrooms tidy. However, evidence indicates that disorderly and cluttered bedrooms may impede rest. They may exacerbate our feelings of tension and anxiety, making it more difficult for us to go asleep and wake up feeling refreshed.
Having an ottoman bed in your bedroom gives you more room to organize things, which will enhance your quality of sleep. For instance, you might decide to put your summer clothing under the bed as winter draws near since you won’t be using it for a long time. This will make room in your wardrobe for the outfits you want to wear.
To keep extra shoes from piling up on the porch or in the hallway, you might decide to store your shoes under the bed. Instead of placing your blankets and decorative throw pillows on the floor or a bench when you go to bed at night, consider storing them under the bed.
