Children's Ottoman Bed FAQs
Choosing an Ottoman Bed
A children's ottoman bed is a storage bed with a lift-up mattress base that provides hidden storage inside the bed frame. It gives your child a comfortable place to sleep while making use of the space beneath the mattress for bedding, clothes, toys and other bedroom essentials — particularly useful when floor space is limited.
The right size depends on your child's available bedroom space, their age and how long you would like the bed to last. Our children's ottoman beds are available in 2ft6 small single, 3ft single, 4ft small double and 4ft6 double sizes. A 2ft6 small single is a useful space-saving option for smaller bedrooms, while larger sizes provide more sleeping space as your child grows. Always measure the room and allow enough space around the bed for comfortable access.
Yes, an ottoman bed can be a practical choice for a child's bedroom, especially when additional storage is needed. When choosing one, consider your child's age, the overall height of the bed and mattress, the bedroom layout and how the lift-up storage will be accessed. Children should not operate or play with the lifting mechanism unsupervised, and the safety and operating instructions supplied with the bed should always be followed.
Ottoman Storage & Features
An ottoman bed provides a large hidden storage area beneath the mattress, allowing you to use space that would otherwise be taken up by a standard bed base. It's ideal for storing bedding, clothes, toys and other bedroom essentials, helping to keep a child's room organised without requiring additional floor space. The exact storage capacity varies depending on the size and design of the bed.
A side-lift ottoman bed opens from the side, while an end-lift ottoman bed opens from the foot end. The best option depends on your bedroom layout and where you have the easiest access. Side-lift storage can work well when there is more space alongside the bed, while end-lift storage may be more convenient when access at the foot of the bed is easier. Lift options vary between designs, so check the individual product before ordering.
Choose a mattress that matches the size and specifications of the ottoman bed you order. Our children's ottoman beds are available in standard UK 2ft6 small single, 3ft single, 4ft small double and 4ft6 double sizes, with mattress options available on many designs. Always check the individual product page for compatible mattress sizes and available options.
