Why King Size Ottoman Beds Work for Small Rooms
ComfoRest’s ottoman beds solve two key small-space problems: sleeping comfort and storage. The Alexis model (£449.90) offers hidden storage under the mattress – perfect for stashing seasonal clothes or extra bedding without needing bulky wardrobes.
Key Space-Saving Features:
- Under-bed storage: 1.5 cubic metres of hidden space
- Streamlined designs: No footboards or bulky frames
- Space-efficient lifting: Choose side-lift (Alexis) or end-lift (Mayfair) depending on your room layout
"Is a King Size Ottoman Large?" - Sizing Explained
All UK king beds measure 150cm x 200cm, but ottoman designs save space elsewhere. As shown in ComfoRest’s is a king size ottoman large? guide, they’re actually more compact than traditional beds because they replace separate storage furniture.
Room Size Requirements:
- Minimum bedroom size: 3m x 3.5m (10ft x 11.5ft)
- Clearance needed: 60cm around three bedsides
- Door placement: Avoid placing beds opposite doors in narrow rooms
7 Practical Tips for Fitting a King Bed
1. Choose the Right Ottoman Bed Style
Opt for beds without footboards like the Chester (£429.90) to maintain clear walkways. Winged headboards (Tamara model) add style without taking extra wall space.
2. Use Vertical Space Wisely
Install floating shelves above the bed instead of nightstands. The Alaska bed’s low-profile design (£549.90) works well with this approach.
3. Clever Storage Solutions
- Store shoes in labelled boxes under the bed
- Use vacuum bags for seasonal duvets
- Keep daily items in roll-out baskets
4. Light Colours Expand Space
Choose light-hued beds like the white Mayfair model (£429.90) to make rooms feel airy. Pair with pale walls and mirrored furniture.
5. Multi-Functional Furniture
The Wave bed (£549.90) works as both a bed and room divider in studio flats. Add a slim console table behind the headboard for extra surface space.
6. Smart Lighting Choices
- Wall-mounted bedside lamps
- LED strips under the bed frame
- Overhead spotlights instead of floor lamps
7. Professional Assembly Matters
ComfoRest’s Concierge Assembly Service ensures your bed fits perfectly in tight spaces, which is crucial for avoiding layout mistakes.
