Ottoman Storage Bed, 4FT6 Double, Hydraulic Storage, Beige

This ottoman storage bed takes the hard edges out of a bedroom, with a softly upholstered surround, a supportive slatted base and a low profile that keeps the room feeling open. The Beige cover is neutral enough to sit with most schemes, yet rich enough to lift a plain room.

Wrapped in soft Velvet, the padding holds its loft and the cover keeps a neat, even finish where hands and feet rest most often. The frame is corner-blocked and the legs are fitted with floor protectors, so it sits flat and stays quiet on hard floors.

It works just as happily in a rented flat as in a family home, because the frame breaks down into manageable parts and goes back together with the fittings supplied. Leave a walkway in front so people can get in and out without shuffling sideways.

Keep it looking fresh by brushing the fabric weekly and dabbing spills rather than rubbing; most marks lift with a mild fabric cleaner and a soft cloth.

A bed frame that looks settled in the room from the first night, rather than something you have to work around.
