4 FT DOULE DIVAN BED - MATRRESS NEXT DAY

As we spend about one third of our life in Bed, it is very important that the bed we choose gives the right support and comfort for that perfect nights sleep. Choosing a bed that doesn’t give the right support can result in poor quality of sleep and waking up with back ache and lack of sleep.

There is a very wide market for double Divan Beds ranging from under £100 to over £1000. The beds you see may all look similar but can vary considerably. When deciding which Divan to buy it is important to consider where it will be used. If it is going to be the main bed in the master bedroom then it is going to be used nearly every night, whereas it if it going into the guest room then it s use will be a great deal less.

When looking for a new Double Divan Bed the first thing that you will see is the design and colour. It is well worth remembering that 90% of the bed will be covered over with the bed linen and will therefore not be on show. The bed head, which is usually made of the same upholstery will show and therefore it will need to match the décor of the bedroom into which the bed will reside.

Next you must look at the construction of the Divan Bed. They nearly all have deep storage drawers set into the side of the bed. These can be either large drawers just on one side of the bed or four smaller drawers, two on each side. In some instances it is possible to lift the foot of the Divan and have the complete base of the Divan as storage.

When choosing a Divan you should always make sure that the surface of the bed is firm enough to support the mattress. If it is not, however good the mattress is, it will almost certainly dip in the middle causing partners to roll together.

It must be realised that the 4ft Double Divan Bed allows each partner to have only 2 ft. of sleeping space. It should therefore only be purchased if space is a premium because the bedroom is rather small.

Most Divan Beds have castors which allow the bed to be moved very easily. Most Divan Beds are much lighter than normal wooden or metal beds. This together with the castors enables the bed to be moved for cleaning and changing the bed linen.

The Divan base that supports the mattress can be made solid with just a quilted covering or it can have a layer of pocket springs. By having pocket spring in the base with the mattress, will give extra comfort when sleeping. It must be remembered that it is the mattress that gives the support and comfort needed for a perfect nights sleep, but if the Divan base is not supportive enough the however good the mattress is then it will not perform its function satisfactorily.

It is advisable to buy the mattress at the same time as you buy your Divan Bed as it has generally been made to fit perfectly and give the result you are looking for.
