Pros & cons

Here we collect tests, guides and product reviews so that you can create a picture of what others think about the product. This analysis and review is based on my experience and a decade of industry insight.

With over 500 reviews and an impressive 94% satisfaction, it is clear to see that this is a great bed frame. Also being one of the best selling frames on offer from this retailer, it's hard to find too much to complain about. The price is more than reasonable and the styling proves popular regardless of the decor of your existing room set up.

There is a small fraction of negative reviews however, they can largely be ignored. Almost every poor review (of which were still a tiny fraction against positive), was around delivery lead time at the peak of the covid pandemic. Unfortunately due to increased demand and soaring costs of freight, many items had extended deadlines for which consumers decided to critique. With the opening back up of the country these sort of problems have subsided, what's more, the retailer now provides delivery times in advance to help ensure that customers understand what sort of delays are around their purchase.

What our reviewers found

I got my hands on the Deacon Upholstered Ottoman Bed Frame recently and it does a really nice job of mixing that plush, hotel-style look with something genuinely useful. With high headboard button detailing, front end opening ottoman and storage depth of 23cm, this frame is as practical as it is stylish. Running my hand across the upholstery, it felt soft and properly padded, and the button detailing looks smart up close rather than a bit 'stuck on'.

On the practical side, the front end opening ottoman is handy if your bed sits tight between furniture, but it does mean you need a bit of clear space at the foot of the bed to lift it comfortably. I also found the 23cm storage depth is decent for spare bedding and pillows, but if you're hoping to hide chunky suitcases or big storage boxes, you might be pushing it. For those who want a more minimalist look, the Deacon Upholstered Ottoman Bed Frame is also available as a standard non-ottoman bed frame, and honestly that might be the better shout if you know you won't use the storage much.

In our opinion, nothing beats a good night's sleep. Why not make yours even better? For me, the big win here is that the headboard has enough padding to sit up against without feeling like you're leaning on a plank, but I'd still want to see how it holds up long term if you've got kids or pets in the house, light upholstery can mark up quickly. The Deacon Upholstered Ottoman Bed Frame is the perfect addition to your bedroom.

I bought this bed in July 2019 and paid 40 extra for assembly. I noticed the bed was falling towards one side. When putting my mattress down, it looked like the bed was uneven. I called Dreams immediately and complained so the delivery guys came out again the next day and according to their eyes the bed was straight so I thought it was all in my head as no one was seeing what I saw. I slept on the bed for two years and although the uneveness was bothersome, I put the issue down to my mattress. It was until July 2022 that my relative pointed out that one of the side slats was broken and was going down and touching the floor while the other side was straight. All those years of complaining suddenly came to light and it wasnt all in my head. The bed was broken from day 1 but no one could point out what the issue was. I couldnt believe how weak the bed was and how the side slat was broken from day 1. It was so unfortunate because that so much time passed that I couldnt complain any longer. I even went to a Dreams store and asked if only the side slat can only be ordered and I am willing to pay over the odds as I do not want to throw away a bed I spent 600 on. They said they couldnt do that which was very disappointing. Looks can be deceiving. I was deceived too. Lovely looking bed but very weak. 4 years on, I never had a good night sleep on this bed. Stay away!

We ordered this bed at the beginning of the Covid pandemic and initially had a 12 week wait for our bed to be delivered. However, once restrictions were lifted we were able to get our delivery brought forward, which dreams happily arranged for us. Due to social distancing delivery could only be made to the front door, which I understand is out of their hands, however a word of warning... the bed comes in four very large boxes and is extremely heavy so take this into consideration if having to move yourself. The bed was relatively straight forward to assemble, though this may prove difficult if your room is on the smaller side. For the most part I was able to put it together myself, but you will need another person to attach the frame to the bed, again very heavy. The hydraulic for the storage underneath is also very stiff initially and requires quite a bit of force to get moving. Overall we are very satisfied with the Deacon bed. It allows for a lot of storage, is very comfortable due to the flexible slats and is a beautiful and quality piece of furniture.

From the minute I walked into the Dreams store in Slough until the moment that I received the bed and mattress that I ordered, I couldn't have been more impressed by both the service and the quality of the products that I received. The in-store help and advice was exceptional in helping me to make the right choices - the guy who looked after us stayed late after the store closed, made us a nice cup of coffee and spent time with us showing us everything - nothing was too much trouble. He even gave us a bottle of water each to take home! Then the entire delivery process was seamless and super impressive - the company kept in touch with me every step of the way and it's the most impressive delivery service that I have experienced. The bed and mattress are both brilliant quality and I cannot fault them - thanks to Dreams I am having my best night's sleep ever and I will definitely be returning to buy more from them. Can't recommend them more highly, other companies cannot match them.

I purchased this bed in November and just had to come back and write a review. After a few months of use, I can say that the build quality is incredible and it has a lot more storage than I expected. I know that with some ottomans the storage element can compromise the comfort but with this bed you have nothing to worry about. I ordered a double in grey. Please be aware that the colour is more like a teal/ grey than typical grey but is even more stunning in my opinion! However, if you are going for a standard grey, I would visit a dreams store and ask to see the colour before you purchase to check that you're happy. Delivery was very smooth. I paid extra for the assembly option and was relieved, especially when I saw how large and heavy some of the parts were. Definitely a two (or three) person job! The guys were extremely polite and had the bed assembled in no time! This bed will be the stunning focal point of any bedroom and is sure to receive many compliments!

Purchased this bed in super king, it is so luxurious. The quality is excellent and it looks great, there is loads of storage underneath and the mechanism works well (if a little stiff at first). Some points to make people aware - 1. I measured to check the bed would fit in the room but failed to think about how to get it in there! The headboard is huge and wouldn't fit through our bedroom door so we had to remove the panel above our door to get it in. 2. It is quite hard work to assemble. I would probably pay for the extra for that if we were to do it again. 3. The shade of grey looks slightly different to the photos, I still really like it but maybe get a fabric sample to be sure. One of the slats was cracked but Dreams sent a replacement straight away. We love the bed and are very happy with it.

I went into Dreams in Wimbeldon not really knowing what I was looking for. I was greeted by the most friendliest team. I was taking to the mattress testing area, once we had decided what best mattress would suit my needs I was then introduced to the sales team. She had endless knowledge when it comes to sleep and comfort and she did not push for me to buy the most expensive bed and mattress but rather what suited my needs. I tried out about 8 different mattresses and pillows. The team would so wonderful I honestly did not want to leave the store! I bought a new mattress topper and a duvet as well as memory foam pillows for my left side as I sleep on my side. The team were absolutely magnificent! I adore going to sleep every night because of Dreams. Thank you!

I purchased this bed in August 2020 it looks stunning but after a month it started to creak I have had to contact dreams on three occasions to come out and tighten bolts seemed to help at the time but after a few weeks started to creak again its driving me insane as if the pandemic wasnt stressful enough I have had to endure trying to sleep in a creaking bed. I have emailed customer service yet again and await a response, also on arrival the bed frame was marked and I was offered a good will gesture back in September 2020 and still waiting on payment. Such a shame as I love the look of the bed and the storage is perfect for me. I have read other reviews and see I am not the only person to experience this with this bed.

Choosing this bed was made easy for us by the sales advisor. He was very helpful and friendly. We were invited to use the sleep machine to get matched to the ideal mattress. We tried several and decided on the first mattress the salesman recommended (sorry I dont know his name) choosing a bed frame was a bit more work as I had in mind a rattan headboard but settled on an upholstered ottoman bed frame. We are so pleased with our new bed, the storage is huge and it is so comfortable and compliments my vintage decor. Delivery wasnt too long and dreams took my old mattress away. The delivery guys were friendly too. Weve had this bed for around three weeks now and we sleep so much better than ever!

Despite all the disruption with the pandemic I managed to place my order for my dreams bed and they delivered it with no issues they kept there promise customer service was on point with regular emails updating me at every stage of the process, I'm looking at getting a mattress from them as Benson's for bed let me down big style, they messed me about for months despite me contacting them a number of times they cancelled my order without notice at the last minute and then wouldnt correct the error and tried selling me the same mattress without my nhs discount putting the price back up at 200 pound more. So in comparison dreams saves the day defo go back to them.

I recently purchased this king size bed in the slate grey option, I had to wait a long time for delivery but it was totally worth the wait! Dreams came and delivered the bed on a Saturday, the delivery men were so helpful and respectful of my home. They contacted me the night before to tell me my two hour time slot and even called me in the morning to re-confirm. Once we unboxed the bed it took us around an hour to assemble, it is definitely a two man job as the head board is heavy!! It really does have the 'wow' factor, beautiful quality and we are getting so many compliments on the head board. Totally worth the money, buy, buy, buy if you haven't already!!

Bought this bed in cream having not been able to see it at all in the shop due to lock-down. I'd initially spotted it on 'Littlebitofdovegrey's instagram account so was confident that the colour would be right given the number of pictures on there in different lights. :) The bed is the perfect colour and the material feels very good quality. We opted for the solid slat base and was slightly nervous that we should have chosen the sprung base but the solid base has been perfect (testament to the mattress we chose too). The room now needs finished with accessories but we have painted the room with Dulux Egyptian Cotton which matches the colour perfectly!

Id been looking at this bed for a long time before I eventually bought it in the sale last week. It looks absolutely stunning and the ottoman base is perfect for storage. Nothing else on the market compares to this as far as style and value for money are concerned. Things I love: Style, colour, ottoman storage, price Things that could be improved: Fabric on headboard appears a little crinkled (or am I just fussy?!) The ottoman function is heavy to lift up initially and push down at the end (not suitable for people with little strength or bad backs!) Overall though Im absolutely delighted with the bed itself and service received from dreams

I have now had this bed for 15 months. I have been very pleased with it up until a month ago when unfortunately when I lift the bed up to get to the storage the bed doesnt stay up! Something must be wrong with the mechanism. The bed hadnt been lifted much maybe every couple of weeks so very disappointed. I have contacted dreams and appreciate with covid19 no one can take a look yet but I have been referred to another company and told a charge of 45 to me as out of guarantee for them to confirm if a manufacturing fault. I have read through other reviews and there doesnt appear to be any others with this fault so Ive perhaps been unlucky.

I am so happy with this bed, it looks beautiful in my bedroom and has lots of storage. We have upgraded to a super king size bed and are not disappointed with the extra space. Our overall experience with Dream's was good, with the purchase in store being very quick and good offers were made available. Thank you Dawn. The delivery people did exactly as we had been advised, calling us in advance to confirm a delivery time, wearing shoe covers, checking the route to take the bed upstairs and assembly. I was really happy that the packaging was also removed. Thanks to Cori who was polite and very efficient.

We ordered the cream coloured deacon ottoman, it is such a gorgeous bed Im so pleased with it, looks stunning in our bedroom. My husband put it together on his own in about 2 hours. Our mattress is a very heavy one I can still lift the frame up but it is very hard with the heavy mattress nothing like it was in store with a lighter mattress on so bear that in mind, I did know it would be harder, its so heavy to lift even my sister couldnt lift it when she tried, il only be keeping things inside that I dont need very often now. Lovely natural fabric, gorgeous bed makes our room feel very cosy!

After waiting weeks and weeks for our new bed to arrive we were so excited. Bed easy to assemble but everything had to be opened downstairs as the boxes would not fit up our stairs. Colour isnt really grey, its more of a teal/blue green colour. Really disappointed with the bed and I have only slept in it twice. Overall design of the product is shocking. Slats cream and bang whenever you turn over and the bed sags in the middle due to there only being one pathetic supporting leg in the middle. Only reason for two stars is that despite the colour difference, it overall look is ok.

The bed is great looking and the storage is handy. Even with the metal ottoman frame it feels sturdy and doesnt squeak. The ottoman mechanism is heavy to lift and made more difficult by the fabric handle that squeezes your fingers together when attempting to lift. It would benefit from a fixed metal handle like other ottoman versions. Where the ottoman frame sits on the bed frame, theres only a few metal L brackets, which I cant help thinking a full beam running around would offer better long term support. All in all a good looking bed, thats difficult / heavy to lift.

I am shocked at the amount of reviews I have read about the same problem we have experienced. We love the design of the bed but the creakiness from the last in just ridiculous! Weve tightened the screws, tried to adjust the slats but to no avail. Weve had the bed for under 6 months and it has got progressively worse. I will be calling Dreams tomorrow, the bed should not do this 6 days, 6 weeks or 6 months down the line and I expect something to be done. Please think carefully about purchasing this bed, it looks fantastic but trust me the sleepless nights are not worth it!

I Bought this bed two months ago and right of the bat there was a problem. the bed is advertised as GREY but is more of a Blue. Luckily we let this slide as it matched the bedroom color. After having this bed now for two months its constantly makes a knocking noise when ever you are laying in it and turn to the side. I have tried tightening the bolts and tried to adjust the Mattress but it still makes the nose and is keeping us awake all night !!! Would not recommended this bed at all and would love it if customer service could get in contact with me.

I ordered this bed, and was shocked when it was being unwrapped. I said they have delivered me the wrong bed as the one I ordered was grey. This bed looks like a dark green. The delivery men were very polite and showed me the packaging which said Dark grey ( still confused as online the only option is grey) apparently the delivery men are used to people commenting on the colour of this bed as this happens a lot. I did not return the bed as I needed it. The actual bed itself has nothing wrong with it. I would of just preferred the colour I ordered!!!

We needed a lot more storage and this bed seemed the best solution for our requirements. Our old SuperKing bed frame was from Dreams and wouldve lasted us another 10 years hadnt we needed the extra storage this bed provides. It looks amazing and is really comfortable - the quality is bang on and I have no regrets about buying this over cheaper models of storage bed we saw online. Word of advice make sure there are two of you if assembling - its impossible to carry out the last stages of assembly alone :)

I bought this bed along with mattress in June 19, the bed looks gorgeous. It is however unbearable to sleep on due to squeaks and creaks down to the portly designed frame. I will pursue a full refund or a credited account and should imagine many other people will soon realise the poor design of the bed once they have had it for longer than 2 months and will do the same. Really wouldnt surprise me if later down the line dreams recall this bed as it is NOT fit for function. I hope this review helps others.

The bed was really nice and sturdy and looks as good as the pictures. Only let down from me was the delivery. Use of unprofessional language from one of them and that same Delivery man gave up on taking the bed upstairs after only a few seconds of trying and was ready to leave. Mentioned a few times they can take the bed back and refund it but i really loved the bed and had paid for the assembly. Told them if you angle the bed frame, it should fit easily and what do you know they managed to get it up.

I love this bed frame! It has a high headboard, but not too high that it dominates the room. The space underneath is immense! I have read previous reviews that say the bed is very squeaky, and it was for me too, but when I adjusted things that I had put underneath it was fine. I paid extra to have the bed put up and it was money well spent and only took the lads half an hour. It was a bit of a struggle to get it up the stairs but they managed it in the end. My bedroom is now my favourite room!

I bought this studio Sofa Bed from Dreams online, having been extremely please with same type bought from a different retailer 5 years previously. Having waited 9 weeks for delivery, I couldn't be more disappointed with how comparatively HARD the foam cushions and sleeping base are and how poor quality the covering material is. This is supposed to be a comfortable functional main sofa that happens to extend into an equally comfy bed - I do not feel that is what I got at all.

I bought this bed a couple months ago. It creeks and the fabric of the bed isn't very good as it seems to catch hair and pretty much anything else. I've tried hoovering and lint rolling the bed frame and headboard everyday but you literally have to sit and remove the hair with tweezers bearing in mind mine and my husbands hair doesn't actually fall out a lot. I've never seen a bed that gathers hair on a headboard ever before Do not purchase. Really high maintenance bed

A superking size varient of the bed was purchased a few weeks ago. The setup was easy with great instructions. Definatley use two people when constructing the bed. It will make the process a whole lot easier Ottoman lifting can be quite difficult at the start. However this becomes easier once the gas struts are broken in. With smaller size beds this wont be such an issue. Fabric is exceptional quality and all components ensure the bed is strong and stable.

I love my deacon bed, but my only problem is that it attracts dirt very easily. The headboard materiel is hard to clean, you can use a hoover to get rid of the dust but little hairs get trapped in the material. My husband had short hair which falls out (human nature) and these hairs get trapped in the material. It is difficult to even pick them out by hand. If anyone has a solution please let me know. Paying so much for the bed i would not have expected this.

Love this bed, I wanted a quality product and thats what we got. Arrived in a couple of boxes, very easily to assemble. Looks amazing. With our super king mattress it is very heavy to lift up without the electric optional extra, would have got that had we known it would be so difficult to lift. The grey on the picture online is slightly different in person; its a more Bluey sort of grey. Overall absolutely love it, doesnt squeak, mrs is happy.

The bed is great. Comfy headboard for leaning on too when sat up reading etc. Easy to build, recommends two people but can be done in your own, all tools supplied. The only thing to be mindful of, which fortunately I was very lucky with, the headboard comes as one piece, therefore is rather large. Getting it to your bedroom should it be upstairs could potentially be an issue, check your access first. Otherwise yes, would definitely recommend.

We got this bed two weeks ago and it not only looks amazing but the sprung slats make our old mattress feel like brand new. weve both slept so well since we got it. Can not recommend it enough. The base is quite heavy to lift up for storage, however its still quite new so I imagine will become easier the more we use it. Still easy to use though and I can lift up myself no problem without my husbands help. So happy with this purchase!!!

Bought this bed just over 2 week ago and can honestly say it is amazing. Read loads of reviews that it squeaked after use and it doesn't in the slightest. I very nearly didn't purchase this product due to the reviews but I'm so glad I didn't let the reviews away my decision. It not only comfortable but very stylish and very complimentary in the bedroom. The headboard is a feature in itself and easily gives the wow factor.

We have had this bed a few months now and we're very happy with it. We had it put together by the delivery guys who were very professional. The base is quite heavy to lift but has so much space for storage. We have found that if you don't lift it fully then once lowered there is a squeak coming from the lift mechanism but once you lift it fully and lower it again it stops. All in all though its a good quality sturdy bed.

I received this bed yesterday and am shocked at the poor quality. It simply has 6 foot wooden slats that aren't supported in the middle, except for one leg on a single slat, meaning the bed sags in the middle. I am upgrading to the sprung slats but do not think this will help that much as even they only have one leg support in the middle. I really regret buying this bed and wish I had purchased a divan and headboard

I bought the cream super king ottoman Deacon and it is the perfect bed for me. The storage is brilliant, with no compartments underneath so you can put any shape or size item underneath. The headboard is really comfortable and the style is timeless. The process of purchase and delivery was brilliant, with every member of staff being helpful and respectful. I would definitely recommend this product and Dreams services.

We bought this bed so we had a cushioned headboard so we could slob out and watch TV in bed. And the verdict is, it is a very comfortable bed! The frame is very solid no movement from the headboard etc. Only down side is that the ottoman is a little heavy to open but we have got a very large mattress on it once it's open 45 degrees it then takes the weight of the mattress and opens the full way on its own.

Ho-lee-sheeeeeeeeiiiiit. This is the best purchase of my entire adult life. I've never cheated out on beds, but this was a bit pricier than I'd usually go, but worth every penny. Make sure when assembling you have sufficient space, I.e. make sure the room is 100% empty and you definitely have 2 people, as the base is very heavy. But the sleep quality.. you literally feel like you're floating.

Can't fault the bed at all. Frame is really nice and high-end, ottoman mechanism is really solid, the bed-build process was really quick and straightforward. Just a great bed frame. My only criticism is that the colour specified is grey, where as the true colour is more of a dark grey with blue or green undertones. The exact colour should be specified on the product. Everything else brilliant!

Bought the grey kingside bed and Im in LOVE!! This bed is absolutely stunning, looks like a mid grey/blue colour and its exactly what I was looking for. The bed itself was very light and easy to build but there was no middle support bar which may compromise the wooden slats but I plan to fix that with 4x4 wooden posts that I will screw into the slats. Overall Im super happy with the bed!

Bought this bed in store and didnt have a sample of the grey colour but was told it would be the same as the sana which my daughter has. The colour was nothing like my daughters bed.

The bed was relatively easy to put together with 2 people, taking probably about 2 hours. The bed looks great and feels sturdy. The only problem was that the superking head board was HUGE! We couldnt get it up our stairs so ended up getting builders to remove an upstairs window so we could get it in definitely check this before ordering- we wish wed been advised to!

Bought this bed about a month ago and I could not fault it at the beginning. However, the last few days the bed has starting squeaking and crunching whenever you move. Very irritating considering its brand new. Rather disappointed we have spent 600 on a bed for it to deteriorate after a month. Other than that, beautiful looking bed, to bad its not practical.

Beautifully fills the space in our bedroom - the bluey-grey velvety finish adds a lovely texture. Room for all the growing family in the super king and a blessing to come home to with a new little one. Easy open for the storage & the clever assembly is easy to put together. If its delivered during lockdown, make sure you have help to get it upstairs!

So happy with my bed, it's gorgeous and so big (did get SuperKing) and comfy. Not had a better night sleep since having it. The one thing i would sat is i chose "grey" but its more a blue-grey. It is a lovely colour though. The quality of the bed is brilliant and really sturdy and the service from Dreams has been amazing, really couldn't fault them.

We love the bed. We ordered the cream colour King ottomon one. It looks lovely, is strong, particularly the headboard. Delivery was as per the time frames promised and arrived secure. It was easy to assemble (need 2 people as heavy). It's only been a few weeks but thus far would definitely recommend. Great product and great customer service Dreams!

Beautiful bed frame. The material and style is very classic and the amount of storage the ottoman provides is so useful. It is easy to lift and close and allows plenty of room to get items in and out of storage. The frame was easy enough for the two of us to put together ourselves and came with easy to follow instructions. I love this bed so much!

Lovely super comfortable bed. The super king with the slats are very easy to put together except for the 4 screws that hold the internal frame to the actual bed found it difficult to hold the nut In the correct place while trying to squeeze my hands through the slats had to prop up the whole bed to be able to put them in but all in all very happy

We bought this bed a month ago and could not be happier with it! The finish is absolutely perfect, the cream is a lot less 'yellow' in situ against our white walls, the storage space under the bed is massive, the headboard is so comfy! It was so easy to build using the youtube clips, the delivery drivers were amazing, all around great experience!

This bed is totally gorgeous, but absolutely gutted as it is not grey at all. Expected the colour to vary slightly but assumed it would at least be on the grey scale however there is no grey hue to this. A better colour to describe it would be teal. If youre looking for a grey bed then I would avoid this product. The style however is beautiful!

The bed itself is fine, looks like it will last and nicely upholstered. However, this bed is TEAL despite the description. If you look in the reviews here (and take not of the cryptic colour changing smallprint in the official description now) you will discover this is not a one-off. If you want a TEAL bed then great, otherwise don't buy.

I bought this bed in Cream, and it is just such a beautiful shade of cream! Whoever see's it, loves it. Love the tall detailed headboard, perfect height. We had to assemble it ourselves due to being in Tier 4, but it was surprisingly easy to do, some of the screws are already fitted. The storage is spacious too. Definitely recommend

Had this bed for around 6 months. Issue with the bed making noises when you move around. Had the dreams team visit 3 times since the bed was originally fitted and the problems are still not resolved. Now unable to lift the ottoman as the lifting mechanism is damaged. Workmen returning in November hopefully they can finally resolve.

Bought this bed approximately 2 months ago & recently the bed has started squeaking due to bolts that have rounded off from the slats - Homeserve been out to take a look, nothing they can do as they dont stock these bolts so referred back to Dreams - Not a happy customer & would not recommend this bed frame to any friends or family!

Very happy with this frame. It's well made and looks really stylish. I have the superking size and it does look big but it fits in with my room. The only down side is the frame is quite fiddly to put the pistons on for the ottoman part. It took two of us quite a while (an hour)my suggestion would be to have it assembled by Dreams.

I bought this bed for our new home. We love it, looks very expensive and we have received lots of compliments on it. Only problem is that it is definitely not grey, its more of a blue/green/navy colour which is fine as it still fits with our decor. The description should be changed as well as the picture as it not representative.

I bought this bed a month ago and I'm so pleased with it. Originally we bought a super king but it wouldn't fit, Dreams were great and took it away, returning with a king size which fits perfectly. Be warned the head board is very large, so it's a great feature but also worth bearing in mind when choosing what size you want.

We had been looking for a new bed for a while and this one is just perfect for us. This bed looks absolutely stunning. Its frame is very solid and strong and the storage under the ottoman is immense. We really like how the base of the ottoman sits directly on the floor allowing for the maximum storage space underneath.

Really impressed with the quality and look of the bed, lots of storage space and very sturdy. Quite difficult to lift up to access the storage but could be the weight of our mattress. Delivery took ages as we ordered the bed in October and it was delivered end of January but as they say some things are worth the wait.

Great delivery service! They were really caring of my house and followed the delivery policy. I recommend paying a bit more to have it assembled but we still managed to do it in the end. If you do assemble it yourself, you may need 3 people as it requires two people to hold the bed and one person to screw it together.

Really pleased with this purchase, I had been looking around for a while & kept coming back to this one. Looks very stylish, and there is loads of storage room underneath, also its good that it sits right on the floor ie no gaps to floor so less dust.

The Deacon bed is amazing, and lives up to expectations from the pictures online. Its really sturdy and theres loads of space underneath for storage. No squeaks or movement.

Great quality bed, looks really smart as the headboard stands tall like in a boutique hotel. The underbed storage is really large. Great for storing bulky items you use less often out of sight but because the mechanism to lift the matters is very simple and robust I dont have to worry about getting to it

We purchased the bed a few weeks ago and it arrived within 4 days. It was straightforward to assemble - the only issue we had was that the instructions didnt mention that the mattress needed to be on the bed for the to be able to be closed as it needed the weight for the arms / struts to be able work.

Common question

Does the bed frame feature any form of storage?

Answer: Certainly, The Deacon Upholstered Ottoman Bed Frame not only has an elegant design but it also includes a front end opening ottoman. This offers a generous storage depth of 23cm, perfect for storing bedding or other items discreetly out of sight. It also features a support bar that keeps the bed raised while the ottoman is in use. - Tayyaba

Common question

What material is the headboard upholstered in?

Answer: The Deacon Upholstered Ottoman Bed Frame features a headboard that is upholstered in a soft-touch fabric which many customers have complimented for its luxurious appearance and soft texture. Its designed to enhance the aesthetic appeal of any room regardless of its colouring.

Common question

Are there any issues with the upholstery fabric attracting hair or debris?

Common question

Can you please tell me what size pieces the bed comes in as I have a wind on the stairs which makes it difficult to get large items upstairs. The assembly instructions link doesn't work on your website

Answer: The Deacon Ottoman will be delivered in 3 boxes, the size of these will depend on the size of the bed that is ordered.Double - Box 1: 165cm (H) x 138cm (L) x 26cm (W). Box 2: 198cm (H) x 38cm (L) x 16cm (W). Box 3: 194cm (H) x 72cm (L) x 15cm (W).King - Box 1: 180cm (H) x 138cm (L) x 26cm (W). Box 2: 208cm (H) x 38cm (L) x 16cm (W).

Anon3

what is the maximum mattress weight the superking can lift? There must be a limit to what the pistons are capable of.

Answer: We do not have set weight limits. Bed frames are tested to 18 stone, however this doesn't mean it can only hold 18 stone across the whole surface area. 18 stone is tested on specific areas of the frame, meaning a weight higher than this would be fine as the weight would be distributed across the whole frame over just one specific area.Our only frames that would be limited at 18 stone are the range of adjustable beds. This ottoman should be fine with any mattress weight.Thank you.

Hi Dreams, does the ottoman base come in 2 separate parts/flat pack or in one large section? Is the headboard removable? Thanks in advance

Answer: The base of the bed comes in separate sections. For the Double size bed, the delivery package dimensions are as follows: Package 1: 194 x 15 x 72cmPackage 2: 165 x 26 x 138cmPackage 3: 198 x 16 x 38cmYou can check the Delivery section of the product page for different sized beds packages. The headboard will come in a separate section to the bed frame but will need to be attached to the bed as it is an integral part of the structure. Many thanks, Dreams

Is it better to get solid slats?? I have a child that is 9 years old and 5f3' and solid built. So I want to know what base is better to take on the weight

Answer: Our beds are tested to British Standard where 120kg weights are used on the beds stress points. There isn't a weight limit set for people using the bed as such, as when laying on the bed weight is distributed more evenly. There are no differences in weight limits between solid & sprung slats. Solid slats are a firmer foundation for your mattress, whereas sprung slats offer more support.Many thanks,

mish99

Is the weight limit recommendation the same for all sizes?

Answer: Our beds are tested to British Standard where 120kg weights are used on the beds stress points. There isn't a weight limit set for people using the bed as such, as when laying on the bed weight is distributed more evenly. Mattress weight limits for the ottoman functionality differ from size to size. This information can be found under specifications.Many thanks,

What size bed frame would fit a mattress that is 6ft7in length and 5ft6in width? Thanks

Answer: The most suitable bed frame size would be a super king which would accommodate a super king mattress measuring 6'0 x 6'8 - however this would be slightly bigger than your mattress so there could be some gaps on the sleeping area. A king bed frame accommodates a mattress measuring 5'0 x 6'8 and hence would not be big enough for your mattress.

Karl07

Are the sprung slats better than the solid slats? Hence the price? Can I purchase the sprung slats to fit a bed that originally had solid?

Answer: Thank you for reaching out with your question. If you are looking for a more supportive base, the sprung slats would be a better option. You would not be able to do this for the Deacon, as the measurements for the slats are different, which means they cannot be swapped out. .

HThistle

I was going to buy a king size mattress for the double ottoman bed as the measurement of the bed is 207cm length x 149cm wide and the mattress i have found is 150cm wide (1cm out) x 200cm long (7cm shorter) would this fit? Thanks

Answer: Unfortunately this would not fit. The footend width includes the small gap between the edge and the mattress, and the width of the side rail. the bed frames are designed to fit the equivalent size mattress. So a double Deacon would require a double mattress. Hope this helps, Dreams.

georgia98

Hi, is this double 4'6 or 147cm? As the standard size of a double is 135cm (4'6) which is too small for me but as the dimensions for this bed said 147cm I went for the double instead of the king but I'm concerned it is going to be too small.

Answer: The width dimension of 147cm includes the width of the side rails which makes the total width of this bed frame slightly larger than a double. The sleeping area, however, if a double is only able to accommodate a double mattress.

Jess2345x0

In regards to mattress, what thickness (for example, 25CM/27CM/30CM) would be best fitted for this bed?

Answer: There isn't a mattress depth that would be best suited as this depends on your personal preference. You would just need to bear in mind what the overall height would be once the mattress is on the base to see if this suits you.

Bess23

Do you have any advice on how I can move the bed to clean/ decorate etc - extremely solid/ heavy

W hy is there such a difference in the price of the Deacon ottoman depending on colour ie. twice as much for cream compared to grey ?

Answer: We have recently updated the colour options & fabrics for this frame, with the dark grey being an older version, and therefore on sale. The lighter grey & cream are the new, refreshed products, which are currently being sold at full price.Thanks,

Has the price been reduced because you are unable to enter properties to build it. If the restrictions are lifted before the furniture is delivered Will you be able to provide the build service

On the deacon it states the height of headboard, but what additional width would you need to have?

Does this ottoman base have an enclosed bottom? meaning the compartment has a floor, raising your stored items off the ground? If so, what is the depth of this compartment?

Answer: The Deacon bed frame has solid base panels as the floor of the ottoman and therefore the items you store here will be raised off of the floor. The depth of the storage area is 28cm.

Does a standard UK King Size mattress fit this ottoman?
