Ottoman Storage Double Bed

Christina1982

Hi
I am needing a new double bed after the one I purchased 6-7 years ago has started falling to pieced (Argos so want to avoid them!)

Most of the ottoman beds I find are leather and white or dark, I'm after a colour that'd go with duck egg and silver so thinking mink or grey, has anyone seen any?
The only ones I can find are these - has anyone come across this company before?

Also does anyone have an ottoman bed?
Thanks in advance

Found the grey one a tenner cheaper: http://www.furniturechoice.co.uk/Bedroom-Furniture/Storage-Beds/Double-Storage-Beds/Brooklyn-Grey-Fabric-Double-Ottoman-Bed_FB10000105.htm

Personally I prefer divan drawers because it's easier to organise the stuff I put in there. Easier to root through a drawer than the entire bed! And I can get to my stuff without chucking the cats off the bed

I'd go for an ottoman every time; we store all sorts underneath ours that you wouldn't fit in a drawer, including suitcases

Thanks I prefer of the look of the ottoman currently have a wooden bed with drawers divans remind me if older peoples bed (no offence intended)
That is slightly different to the one I've seen very slight but thanks

Yeah I want to put bed linen in etc where did you get yours?

We bought ours about 4 years ago from M&S

Ours is very similar to this

What about this; though I can't vouch for the bed/company, is this something like what you are looking for?

I'm a big fan of ottoman also, it serve us well for years. We have limited bed space but wanted something nicer than a sofabed so we decided to stick to a functional piece of furniture. You can see from here: beddesigns [dot] net, that there are are a lot of types and design option for your ottoman bed. Thought it might help you while planning to buy a new one.

I'm thinking about an ottoman bed too as I'm struggling to find a metal frame that suits.

Neither of us are light however, and I don't want us falling through after a few days- does anyone have any tips on what to look for or brands to avoid? Budget is obviously a factor too, we will have to make do unless it's under around £300 ( without mattress)
