King Size Divan Beds

A king size divan bed is 5ft wide by 6ft 6” long, which is 150 cm x 200 cm. This is the standard UK king size and fits a standard king size mattress that is 150 cm x 200 cm. The size gives two sleepers more room than a double bed, especially if you want extra width and length for comfortable sleep. It's also a good choice for taller sleepers, couples, and anyone who wants a more spacious sleeping space.  A divan king size bed features a neat base design, so it takes up less visual space than a large framed bed. This helps the room feel cleaner while still giving you a wide sleeping area.

What are the storage options in king size divan beds?

A king size divan bed with storage gives you useful space under the bed for bedding, clothes, towels, pillows, blankets, seasonal items, or anything you want to keep out of sight. You can choose storage based on your room layout. Drawers can be placed on the left side, right side, both sides, opposing sides, or at the foot end of the bed. 

Two Drawer King Size Divan Bed

This bed gives you simple storage without making the base feel too full. The drawers can be placed on one side, both sides, left side only, right side only, or at the foot end. This option works well if one side of the bed sits close to a wall, wardrobe, or bedside table. 

Four Drawer King Size Divan Bed

It gives you more separated storage inside the base. It is a useful choice for couples because each person can have their own drawer space. You can use the drawers for bedding, clothes, shoes, towels, books, or daily bedroom items. 

2+2 Continental Drawer King Divan Bed

A 2+2 continental drawer layout gives you two larger drawers near the foot of the bed and two smaller drawers near the head side. The smaller head end drawers are useful when bedside tables block full size drawer access.

End Drawer King Size Divan Bed

An end drawer opens from the foot of the bed. This is a good choice when the bed sits between walls, beside wardrobes, or in a room where side access is limited. The end drawer keeps storage easy to reach from the front and leaves both sides of the bed clean.

King Size Ottoman Divan Bed

A king size ottoman divan bed gives deeper storage than standard drawers. The base lifts to reveal a large hidden storage area under the mattress. This option is useful for bulky items such as duvets, pillows, spare bedding, blankets, winter clothes, bags, and larger bedroom items.

Can I buy a divan king bed with a mattress?

Yes, you can buy a king size bed with a mattress included. This is ideal when you want the base and mattress set to arrive together in the correct 5ft size. Mattress options can include memory foam, pocket sprung, open coil, orthopaedic and hybrid mattresses. The choice of mattress depends on your sleeping posture, comfort preference, and support needs. A king size divan bed with mattress is ideal for couples, main bedrooms, guest rooms, and full bedroom upgrades because you do not need to match the bed and mattress separately.

Can I buy a king size divan bed with a headboard?

Yes, you can buy a king size divan bed with a headboard. We offer many headboard styles with multiple fitting options. Popular styles of headboard include chesterfield, linestyle, panelled and art deco.  While fittings include floor standing headboards, wall mounted headboards, and wooden strut headboards. A floor standing headboard sits directly on the floor behind the divan base. For a king size divan bed, the floor standing headboard is usually around 150cm wide and can be around 54 inches high. A wall mounted headboard fixes directly to the wall with mounts instead of the base, creating a more fitted and tidy bedroom appearance, while a wooden strut headboard attaches to the back of the divan base using wooden struts and screws and it's the budget-friendly option. 

What Colours Are Available in King Size Divan Beds?

King divan beds are available in a wide range of bedroom friendly colours. Popular colour choices include grey, black, cream, beige, blue, brown, silver, pink, natural, charcoal, white, and duck egg. 

Grey is a strong choice for modern bedrooms because it fits with any bedroom decor. Cream and beige create a softer and more welcoming feel. Black and charcoal feel more modern and bold. Blue and duck egg add colour without making the room feel too busy.

The choice of colour depends on your taste, room style, wall colour, flooring, and headboard choice. If you want a safe long-term option, grey, cream, beige, and charcoal are usually the easiest to style.

Can I buy a king size divan base?

Yes, you can buy a king size divan bed baseon its own if you already have a 5ft mattress at home. This is a good choice when you already have a mattress that still feels comfortable, but your old base looks worn, feels weak, or no longer suits the room. A base only option can also keep the cost lower because you are not buying a full bed set. You can choose a plain base for a simple setup, or add drawers or ottoman storage if you need extra space under the bed.

How to choose a king size divan bed?

Start by measuring your bedroom and checking how much space you have around the bed. A king size bed give more sleeping room than a double, but you still need space for walking, bedside tables, wardrobes, and drawer access.

If your room has clear space on both sides, a four drawer layout can work well. If you are placing the bed against the wall and one side is blocked, choose two drawers on the open side or an end drawer. If you need deeper hidden storage, choose a divan ottoman base.

Next, choose whether you need a mattress included. A firm mattress can suit people who want stronger support, while memory foam or hybrid options can suit those who want more cushioning. Then choose the headboard height, colour, and fabric that match your room style.
