Discover the UK’s Most Loved Ottoman Storage Beds
Every home needs that one clever piece that makes life simpler. An ottoman storage bed does exactly that. It looks like a normal bed from the outside yet hides a massive storage space underneath the mattress. No more squeezing boxes under a standard bed or stuffing wardrobes until they burst.
HI Q customers keep telling us the same thing: once you switch to ottoman beds with storage you never go back to a normal divan bed again. The space underneath swallows spare duvets, winter coats, suitcases and even the kids’ toy mountain. All of it stays dust free because the solid base seals tight when you lower the mattress.
We build every ottoman bed frame right here in Yorkshire using strong gas pistons that make lifting the mattress smooth and safe. Whether you want plush velvet upholstered elegance or a clean fabric ottoman bed, our range of ottoman beds covers every taste and every room size from single to super king.

Why Ottoman Storage Beds Beat Every Other Bed Frame
Normal beds waste the most valuable space in your bedroom. Ottoman beds turn that dead space into a hidden wardrobe. No sticking drawers like a divan bed. No dusty gaps like a standard bed frame. Just one smooth lift and everything you need sits ready inside the solid base ottoman bed.
Benefits of an ottoman bed that actually change your mornings
You wake up to a tidy room every single day. Spare pillows stay plump because they live in the dark, dust free storage space underneath the mattress. Changing seasons becomes simple: swap summer clothes for winter jumpers in minutes. Kids stop losing football boots because everything has a home inside the ottoman bed frame.
The gas pistons we fit are strong enough for daily use yet gentle enough for anyone to lift the mattress without straining. No more wrestling with heavy bed bases or crawling on the floor to reach the back corner. Ottoman beds are designed to make life easier, not harder.
What Real HI Q Customers Say
Sarah from Manchester wrote: “My bedroom looks twice the size now. The king size ottoman bed swallowed three huge suitcases and all the spare bedding. Best purchase we ever made.”
James in Birmingham told us: “I was worried about strength but the ottoman storage bed feels rock solid. Even with a heavy memory foam mattress the lift is smooth every time.”
Lisa says: “The plush velvet Paris in teal is stunning. Guests keep asking where I got it. Delivery came exactly when promised and assembly took 25 minutes with the clear instructions.”
Ottoman Bed Sizes – Find Your Perfect Fit
Double ottoman storage bed (4ft6) – most popular UK size
Fits most master bedrooms and gives couples the extra storage they need without dominating the room. The double beds version stores the same volume as a small wardrobe.

The sweet spot for growing families. You gain 10 inches of width over a standard double and the storage area grows too. Perfect for king size and super king fans who hate clutter.
Single & Super King also available
From compact single ottoman bed for kids to massive super king ottoman beds that store absolutely everything, we build every size with the same quality lift system.

End Lift vs Side Opening Ottoman – Which One Wins?
Most UK homes pick end lift ottoman beds because you just stand at the foot of the bed and lift. The whole mattress rises straight up on gas pistons and stays open while you grab whatever you need. No walking round the side and no lost space against walls.
Side opening ottoman beds work better in tight corners or when you have bedside tables close to the headboard. You pull a handle on the long edge and the base swings out like a door. Both styles give the same huge storage but end lift wins for 9 out of 10 customers because it feels easier every single day.
Our entire range uses end lift because it keeps bedrooms looking tidy and gives the biggest clear opening for duvets and suitcases.
Plush Velvet Colours That Make Bedrooms Pop
Nothing beats the soft touch of plush velvet under your hand when you sit on the bed. We stock eleven rich shades that stay colour fast for years. Midnight blue hides everyday marks. Blush pink warms small rooms. Silver grey matches every carpet.
Pick a colour that makes you smile when you walk in at night. Every ottoman bed frame arrives in the exact shade you choose and the fabric wraps the base completely so even the sides look perfect.
| Slate Grey | Midnight Blue | Blush Pink | Emerald Green | Champagne |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Teal | Royal Blue | Mustard | Charcoal | Cream |

Frequently Asked Questions
1.What is an ottoman storage bed?
