What our reviewers found

Pros

Unique design will appeal to many without anything else on the market with similar look and feel.

Ottomans are a personal favourite due to the sheer scale of storage space underneath the bed. 

Owner reviews run strongly positive, with the storage and the look praised most often.

Up to 8 year bedcover service plan available for additional purchase.

Cons

Limited sizing penalises those with smaller bedrooms.

Fairly long lead time will put off those in need of a bed in a hurry.

Sprung slats are a sign of good quality but can make the mattress feel firmer.

The Isabella is a stunning and modern-looking ottoman bed design that will add to the feel of your room. It comes in either a deep walnut or warm oak finish with an indented headboard. I personally prefer the warm oak, it is more in keeping with the more modern bedroom. The ottoman design of the product means you get an easy lifting mechanism for storing away bedding and sheets.

The Isabella is well reviewed and of high quality in both design and construction, the slats are sprung and help give additional support to the mattress, adjusting the tension slightly.

The great design doesn't stop there though and part of any good ottoman frame is in the headboard, in this case a uniquely designed feature that looks great and is its own feature. 

Owners write about the storage and the lift more than anything else. One called the ottoman mechanism "really easy to use" and said it "provides lots of additional storage", while another found "The lift mechanism is really easy to use". The look comes a close second, from "Absolutely beautiful bed, looks so good in my room" to "both stylish and practical, and well constructed". Once built it is usually described as sturdy ("Sturdy bed. Good finish."). Most owners who mention assembly found it straightforward, with "I found it easy to assemble" typical, but one owner closed a long account of undersized holes and fiddly barrel nuts with "the assembly was infuriating".

Negative reviews are a small minority, and two complaints recur. Some owners received damaged or incomplete deliveries: "One side panel was damaged on delivery", wrote one, and another reported that "some parts were missing" so the bed was left half built. The other is the walnut finish. Several owners found the shade different from the photos, one writing that "the walnut colour is different to what is shown above" and another that "the colour does not match that which is advertised at all".

Recently purchased this bed from the Cardiff Dreams store, in regards to the quality of the final product, we are very happy. The storage is ample, and the springs surprisingly light making the bed was to open and close. The only downside was the assembly. For example: - The bed was delivered in 5 boxes, in which the instructions were in the 5th package (i.e. labelled 5 of 5) inside the plastic packaging for the slats. It would've been a lot more logical to place the instructions inside the first box. It was only when I had emptied the boxes (in order) that I could find the instructions. - The instructions, which I can only describe as absolutely awful, were not particularly clear. Not all items were listed (a problem), so there was a bit of guesswork in identifying the items. - The pieces were not labelled, which although a minor gripe, when you are dealing with reasonably heavy constituent parts, is quite irritating! - Corners were cut in the manufacture of the base parts. For example, the holes for which you were meant to screw the cam dowels into were too small, which resulted in a few frustrating 'mis-screws' where the dowels ended up at a jaunty angle, and had to be re-affixed. Another example is when you attach the headboard to the main bed frame. As opposed to simply installing a metal thread for the long screw to fit into, you are provided with a barrel nut. Unfortunately, these nuts are open at both sides, so it is incredibly easy to have them the wrong way around, making it very easy to cross thread them whilst trying to screw in the screw. Once you add in that it is incredibly easy to rotate these nuts very slightly which makes them impossible to screw into, it becomes somewhat of a nightmare. What should've been a simple 2 minute task (screwing in 4 screws) took me the best part of 30 minutes. Very infuriating. Purely a situations where a slightly better design would result in assembly being a lot easier. Generally all in all the bed is excellent, but the assembly was infuriating

Very pleased with my wooden Isabella bed with a firm but comfy mattress that also matches my oak furniture purchased many years ago through another company. I have had a full knee replacement too and needed a supportive bed to assist in my recovery. Bought in November 2022 and delivered at the start of December 2022. It's a sturdy bed and worth the money paid too. I would recommend that you pay a bit extra to have the bed put together by the Dreams Technicans as the wooden structure has hydraulics fitted inside that lifts up the mattress base to provide plenty of storage space underneath, that can be fiddly if you are not DIY minded. The delivery guys were very helpful and friendly too. My only worry is if we move house whether I'd be able to assemble it again as I would not want to damage the sturdy base. The staff at the Maidstone branch were very understanding, offering advice and also professional in their approach towards me as I have a 'phobia of coil springs'. They made every effort to cover up the 'demonstration coil springs' whilst I tried out various mattresses around their store and were very patient whilst I made my choices with no sales pitch or pressure put on me to buy. (I'd have run out the shop if I felt or seen any bed springs or felt pressurised in any way!). They used Dreams computer technology to match me up with the right mattress and help me find the perfect bed base too. I can now sleep in comfort and at ease now with no pain. Thank you & well done to the staff at your Maidstone Branch of Dreams for making 'my dreams' come true!!!.

The bed exceeded my expectations. I was expecting something quite flimsy made out of fibre board but I got a very nice, sturdy bed that will no doubt last many years. The bed can be put together by one person up to a point. The slats are already assembled into a metal frame that needs to be positioned on top of hinges that are in lifted position so the slats' frame can be screwed to the hinges. That is not one person job so don't be brave about it. The hinges make lifting the slays and mattress up a doddle. More force is needed getting it down. The space underneath is vast and it's a great solution for those who chose furniture with maximising storage in mind. I am stealing one star because of the tolerances. The bed went in together alright. On one occasion the tolerance meant that about couple of millimetres had to be shaven off from one of the beams. Didn't mind that as that was on a well hidden part. Second intolerance is on the middle beam. When screwed in place the whole frame pivots on the middle beam ever so slightly. The weight of the mattress and slats didn't resolve the problem. Putting some felt pads under one side. Nothing I can't live with and since it's wood, I'm sure it will settle into place over the years.

The ottoman function on this works very well. Easy up, and down. Wasnt too hard to build. Delivered on time. Helpful friendly driver (Stephen and colleague). However 1) the wood sticks out further than you realise it will from the images, further than the mattress. My husband and I keep banging ourselves on it. Being covered in bruises is no middle aged persons idea of fun! 2) the slatted base, whilst in one piece we didnt have to assemble (nice surprise, had to assemble my son's single ottoman from another supplier) Unfortunately, many of the slats had cracks, chips, or splits. Not noticed until delivery drivers had left. Emailed customer services with pictures, and they were quick to arrange to send out a new one, and instruct their team to remove the old and replace the new. Great! Nothing for us to do. Except the new one was exactly the same. Told they would let the team know, I'd get a call within 1hr. They'd tell them to Q.C. control check it before sending it out. No call came. I emailed them. I'm awaiting a response, a new delivery date, and a slatted base I am confident will last the lengthy duration that a brand new bed should

Maybe we got unlucky with this one but it started off with the bed not being delivered when it was meant to be. We were only informed the night before delivery that there's been an issue with the bed not being ready so won't be delivered the next day. It was then delivered after 2 weeks. About the bed - - Beautiful bed, unique design however unfortunately we had to return it as I didn't like how the mattress didn't fit well on the bed and the gap between the frame and the ottoman feature. The pulling bar thing that helps lift the bed for the storage plus the wooden frame infront of it were more than about 4 inches away from the mattress and slates and there was also a big gap where you could see all the stuff stored underneath the bed. If that doesn't bother you then go for it as it gets covered with the duvet anyway but it's not for me as I can't stand thinking there's spiders and other creatures (big enough to enter that gap) who've also made their home in my storage area! It's a shame it wasn't made perfectly because the design was so elegant and colour went well with our room too

I received the bed just under a month ago. I had never had sprung slats on a bed before and was a little concerned at how comfortable it would be with my current mattress. However it turned out to be very comfortable and makes for a great nights sleep. The bed is straight forward to put together, it takes around 1 hour, but you will need 2 people and a few tools . It is very heavy to manuever but this also means it is very solid and does not creak or move around as some beds with sheels or legs would. Also the ottoman hinge function is very smooth and easy to operate, again itis very solid and does not make any noise (I have found some ottoman beds mechanisms do rattle when you move about on the bed.) Plenty of storage space underneath. (I would advise installed a small battery operated lamp as the top of the bed near the head board can be very dark when raised) I have only knocked off 1 star as a few of the metal fixings broke while I was building the bed, luckily I had extras at home. But the type of fixings are readily available from hard ware stores.

The Isabella Platform Ottoman Bed Frame is quite simply stunning. Very elegant and with more than enough storage (cough..to fit my stupidly growing trainer collection, and of course bedding!). My sister had purchased this for her new posh bedroom loft-conversion. I was so impressed with its striking rectangle head board design, I bought the same frame for my new flat. It rests beautifully against my royal blue feature wall. A true adults bed. What's really impressive is how sturdy it feels, including accessing the spring-loaded storage. No difficulty or annoying creaks at all. This is definitely of high quality and excellent value. I paid for the service to get this built, including dispsal of my old mattress. Exceptional service - on time, very friendly guys who got it built in no time. No stress. Highly recommended! The mattress bundle with this frame is also very impressive and value for money. Very comfy. Really happy with my purchase.

We bought this without seeing this colour on display - believe the Dreams stores only have the oak on display. This goes very well with the colours in our bedroom and so we chose this other colour. The bed doesn't float too much out - maybe just 5 inches or so. The photo is a bit misleading due to the angle and it looks as if it's floating more than it really is. The bed itself was delivered with some damaged parts. Brilliant customer service from Dreams that they threw in free assembly to compensate. The assembly guys did the job in 1 hour when it might have taken me 4! I would recommend paying for it even though like me you may wish to save money - definitely think it's worth it. The bed itself is otherwise good quality and sturdy and I have no hesitations recommending it. Wait for when it's on sale, definitely do not pay full price though!

Delivery didn't go well at all, as some parts were missing, so the teams left with a half-assembled bed, and we had to chase and wait for the parts to turn up to be able to attach the headboard. Whilst they sorted the problem fairly efficiently, it was still very frustrating and not aligned with the expectations for this sort of amount. Looks good, but the Ottoman system is not as good as I expected. When you close it, the frame ends up touching the edges, so that's not great and will create long term damage. We've been told it's because we have wood floors and therefore the frame moves, which supposedly doesn't happen with carpet, but I don't buy it. Dreams came couple of times already to inspect the bed, and told us we need to put a rug under the bed. Will try it out, but really not convinced.

When I bought this I liked the design of the bed, with the storage space underneath. However, when it was delivered the the bed rail had slight damage and the head of the bed was damaged as well. They have been to replace both parts of the bed but was informed (by there delivery person) the bed rail was the foot of the bed. When they came to replace the head of the bed that was damaged again. The driver said that the wooden bed frames don't transport well. However when you looked at the packaging there was a big rip in the box it came in. I think it needs more care when being handled either in storage or in transport. I gave the 4* rating as I'm not sure who caused the damage or where the damage occurred, I hope it doesn't the easily in future. I'm just basing the rating on my experience.

Easy to build with 2 people. Looks very nice and the Ottoman mechanism to raise and lower the mattress appears to be very good indeed. Lots of very easily accessed storage space under the mattress frame. Clean and unfussy lines. Wood is of differing shades and grain however the overall effect is good. Cannot report on the longevity of this product. The wood panels and frame are not as substantial as I expected. However we have a very heavy mattress and have slept on our new bed several nights now and have not experienced any movement and/or squeaks / noises coming from em either the new mattress or new bed bought from Dreams. All in all a pleasure to do business with and very helpful and knowledgable staff with very friendly and helpful delivery persons too.

I was under the impression that I will be buying a beautiful walnut coloured bed, as that's what the online photos show. When I asked in store about how the walnut colour looked a lady pointed at a different bed which was in this beautiful walnut colour and said it'll look like that one. So I was very excited to purchase this bed. Turns out this was too good to be true. When the bed turned up I was shocked. Firstly the bed turned up heavily damaged. Secondly the colour looked nothing like what I expected (as the employee showed me different bed but supposedly in the same colour). This bed was not walnut, instead it had this horrible greeny-brown colour and looked nothing like the photos. I have never felt so disappointed with a purchase in my life!

This was bought to replace an ottoman double bed in leather that was showing signs of wear, natural and scratching contributed by cats. The space under the bed offers the necessary extra storage that modern houses lack and, having viewed a few other options, this matched exactly what was required together with proving less likely to be damaged by cats scratching the bed frame. The choice was between this bed and another more expensive one. The choice was not made on price but whether or not it was functional, durable and aesthetically pleasing, and, of course, fitted with existing other bedroom furniture and furnishings. This matched perfectly those criteria with the bonus of at a very good, affordable price. Very pleased with this purchase.

I can't say anything other than outstanding customer service from start to finish! Once I had purchased our bed, I was kept informed every step of the way. I paid for the bed to be assembled and the guys who came, were very professional and polite, taking the packaging away too. Unfortunately after they had left, I noticed a chip at the foot of the headboard, so contacted Dreams straight away and nothing was too much trouble. A very quick return trip to replace the headboard was made and again, a different pair of guys came and again were excellent and once again took all packaging away. Thank you Dreams, for a throwback to good old fashioned customer service, very much appreciated! (Isabella Wooden Ottoman Bed)

Best thing ever!! I have now managed to reclaim some cupboard space for myself as my wife's collection of jumpers, fleeces and other "useful" items that never get worn are now under the bed. Easy to lift up to access the above mentioned although a little bit harder to close if you are short and slightly on the lighter side, which makes it easy for the wife as she is short but less lighter than she used to be. Seriously, it's made of sturdy stuff but the final assembly, once you have all the side panels on does need two people. Assemble it in the room the bed is going to be in as it is heavy and you will not get it upstairs.Message to all the diy men out there, read the instructions!! It will go quicker.

I'm not sure how to review this bed. On one end, it looks good, the quality is good, and it's a comfy and spacious bed. On the other end, the metal frame rattles on the wood when closed. I've never had an Ottoman bd before so maybe this is just normal, but for the price I am pretty disappointed. I've opted to put some fabric stickers on the wooden frame to minimise noise, however it does still make really annoying rattling noises depending on how you sit/move. I initially thought my bed was faulty and to Dreams credit they sent out firstly some to take a look at it, and then actually sent a brand new bed. However it's clearly just the design of the bed as both have done this.

I was pleasantly surprised by the sturdiness of the lifting mechanism. I have had these type of 'lift up, under storage beds before and their weakness is usually the lifting and lowering system but this bed seems rock solid in that department. It looks and feels a good quality product and I was impressed by the fact that there were even matching floor panels for the inside so that the items being stored are not on the carpet. Very impressed all round and I was quite disappointed that the bedding ends up obscuring the view of the bed frame as it is quite a good looking piece of furniture. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a little bit of quality at a good price

Lovely bed, looks great and is really easy to use. I was concerned it may be heavy to lift but after the first couple of uses (which they tell you about) the mechanism for lifting it is really smooth and easy but firm enough to feel safe. Plenty of storage space and much easier actually than a drawer divan. The headboard is more comfortable than you would expect, being wood, and the walnut finish is really classy looking. Delivery, removal of old bed and installation/assembly went like a dream (pun fully intended) and the delivery and assembly guys were polite, friendly, efficient and very helpful. Cannot fault the bed or any aspect of the delivery at all.

Nice good looking elegant bed...goes well with the 'short bread biscuit' colour carpets we have got. offers good storage for all the stuff in the house you dont use often... Two points to mention - 1. when the bed arrived the first time, it had a scratch on the head board but when we inspected closely, there were other marks as well, so look out closely. The customer care team arranged replacement. 2. when there is no mattress, the hydraulics make the slatted panel remains open. There is no locking mechanism for it to be kept attached to the bed base. so, when we had to move the bed, we had to tie the panel to the handle for to avoid any damage.

I bought this bed two weeks ago. My old bed and mattress had served 20+ years and needed replacing. I needed storage for a small bedroom. I don't mind admitting that I had not heard of an Ottoman style bed before. This fitted my needs perfectly. The construction of the frame sits directly on the floor and therefore obviates the 'under-the-bed' void and the need to clean this area. The gas pistons to raise the bed and great and do not much strain to lift up. I took insurance to cover their failure which gives me peace of mind. Overall I am impressed by Isabella Wooden Ottoman Bed Frame it is modern stylish and practical for today's living.

Sturdy and solid. Ok, so its not all solid wood, much of the base is laminated chipboard, but the lifting frame, headboard and the hinges and gas struts are all good quality and lifts a very heavy mattress easily. It doesn't wobble or creak, pretty pleased overall and it's very easy to assemble if you have any flat-pack skills. Bought in a post-Christmas sale after it was already discounted; probably wouldn't have paid full price but very good value in the sale. Added a ring of LEDs around the base just below the mattress frame so they're invisible but lights-up the floor around the base nicely, or seedy, depending on the settings.

This is a great sturdy bed which looks really good. I'd researched lots of oak ottoman looking for the right bed for our room. My only reservation with this bed was that there would be a small gap at the headboard end of the bed because the headboard is curved and that this would mean we would end up with a dust trap. We've not had the bed long enough to know whether it will be an issue, but I think the overall look of the bed is worth an awkward extra clean from time to time. Was relatively easy to put together, the ottoman is a little stiff at first and we found having two people (one either side) made it easier to begin with.

I saw this bed in the showroom and was sold on it, it looks great and it's well made. The delivery men arrived on time and were really helpful and polite. Assembly instructions say it needs 2 people but I did it myself and I'm no weightlifter. One piece of advice: it says to fit the gas springs to the lifting arms *before* fitting the mattress frame to the arms. Don't. Lie the arms down flat and fit the frame to them using the 2 screws nearest the foot end, then raise the frame and arms and fit the gas springs which will hold it in the upright position, then get underneath and secure the frame using the rest of the screws.

We bought our new bed a month or 2 ago. It is a lovely looking bed and so very comfortable to sleep on. The hydraulic mechanism to left the bed frame makes it easy and reassuring for a small lady like me to use. The storage is excellent underneath is sturdy and is a really good size. The shop kept me up to date with delivery date and I was called on the day by the delivery team to let me know the time of arrival. They were friendly and courteous and after assembling the bed, took all packing away. I highly recommend the bed, the staff, the delivery team and the whole process from when we first walked into the shop.

This bed was delivered in several boxes and made it manageable to carry up the stairs (that is considerate of Dreams). The bed looks nice once assembled, it is sturdy and has good storage space. The veneer is of good quality, the only thing I found was that the material felt a little bit thin and cheap and the bottom of the storage was basically a few thin pieces of plywood laid on the floor/carpet. For the price (£699 for king size) this is the best looking storage bed in the market and we are happy with it. (we found that the next price range is near £1000 and does the same job really, you just need a good mattress).

We were after something affordable but stylish and this was spot on. The ottoman function (whilst it replaced an old style raised bed with really useful boxes underneath) really feels like it gives more accessible storage that can be used every day with ease. I enhanced our new bed with Amazon sourced LED motion sensor strip lighting around the left and right which really sets it apart and is so easy to install. Delivery was also great they rang me with a window brought it in what more do you want! Only thing I will say....setup is NOT a one person job. Nearly killed myself several times on the metal frame step...

Nice bed It took me 1.5 hours to put it together including carrying it up stairs (but I am an engineer) It took a little bit of working out how far to screw the metal pins in. The shoulder on the pins doesn't stop you from screwing them in to far. Only needed an extra pair of hands for attaching the lifting part of the bed The quality is good for the price The bed doesn't squeak The lifting mechanism is easy to use Dreams texted me loads of times to tell me when the bed was going to turn up.(possibly too many times) One part was damaged in transit but they replaced it within a week, with no problems.

Really happy with the look, function and storage of this bed. However the fittings are so poor that it makes it very difficult to build, good job we're not planning on moving as you wouldn't want to make it again and don't think one of the fittings will ever come out again. Me and my husband have built lots of furniture in the past, he's a qualified Electrician and I have worked as a prosthetist and orthotist so building a bed really shouldn't have been as hard work as it was. Spent so long trying to get all the rubbish threads to bite. Also quite a few bits damaged but luckily did me anywhere that will show.

The overall design and look of the bed is great, however upon receipt the veneer quality was poor. This was coming away from the headboard, was of rough finish and caused splinters. There was also evidence of glue on the headboard. The website also states solid wood which it isn't. It has a hollow headboard, the bed frame is a mix of chipboard or plywood with veneer. The only sold Oak it the outer frame of the headboard (apparently, although the one I received had veneer) and the frame surrounding the mattress I was really disappointed as the design was perfect, it looked great and provided nice clean lines.

The bed was delivered exactly as agreed and with excellent care and support from the company. The drivers were very helpful and shared a few hints and tips, such as using a drill rather than the Allen key to get things together. The whole process of unpacking and building the frame was very straightforward. All parts were easy to identify and it didn't take too long. The storage area is great. Lots of space and dust free! The bed lifts and lowers easily to allow access. When coupled with an excellent mattress, this is my dream bed. A good night's sleep is guaranteed. Many thanks from a happy customer.

I purchased this online due to covid restrictions and shops being closed. I found the reviews very helpful in making my purchase. The ordering process was really easy and there was a good offer purchasing a mattress at the same time which i did. I was able to choose my delivery date abd was keot informed by texts and emails throughout. The bed was easy to put together with two people and i was pleasantlysurprised at the quality of the bed, the ottoman style gives lots of storage space and is very easy and smooth to operate. Very happy with my purchase and woukd recommend dreams service and products.

The wood used to make this bed frame is beautiful and such a lovely colour. It is solid but easy enough to lift to get to the storage compartments. I have disabilities but can still lift and shut this bed. Did have to find the knack to close it but once I managed this then don't have any issues now. The headboard is built in all in one which is a bit different and out of the ordinary. Paid extra to get the bed built and glad I did as they were friendly, efficient, clean, removed the packaging and followed all Covid-19 regulations. Highly recommend both the bed and paying that extra for it to be built.

I had been toying with getting a new bed for a while and so happy I did. The obvious choice of 1st place to look was Dreams due to their advertising and, no surprises, I was able to locate, chose and order this bed very quickly and easily. Everything from start to finish was simple and efficient. The bed is extremely useful with the underneath storage and especially useful in hiding Xmas presents from small nosey children. It is also very comfortable and solid in build. The hydraulic arms really to hold it open very well so no danger of it falling on your head like I've heard reports on other beds.

Leigh and Simon were so helpful, put it in the room I specified and were gone. Brilliant! Product assembly - It was so easy to do, picture instructions were spot on. Comfort - Too comfortable, I don't want to get out of bed in the mornings! Storage - Loads of room, far better than expected and easy to lift up and down, even for my wife who is tiny. Overall - The whole process from ordering through delivery to trying it out has been a DREAM. Thank you to the whole team

Lovely looking bed, pretty easy and painless to put together and appears sturdy and robust so far. The storage underneath is massive and exactly what we wanted. When we opened the packaging on receipt of the bed there were small marks on the headboard however, as if it had been dragged at some point (before being packaged), pretty faint but once you'd seen them! To be fair though, I got though to Dreams immediately and they couldn't have done any more to resolve the problem, really swift and offered us pretty much every option you could think of to get it sorted, which they did. Well done.

The bed is really sturdy and well made and easy to put together. I managed it alone with only minor difficulty. The issue I have though is with the shade of walnut. It differed quite drastically from the colour advertised in the picture. One of the things I liked most about it when I place the order was that the colour looked to have a warm reddish brown which made it look modern. But when it arrived it was the kind of shade I'd associate with old fashioned furniture, more of a yellowish brown. It's a shame because I love the design and it's hard to find a really nice wooden ottoman.

We bought this ottoman bed for our new cottage. It looks great and it's very practical, and easy to lift. When you store things under the bed, you can easily access your belonging at any time and since you can actually see them, you are less likely to forget where you have placed certain items. The delivery was great and even though it was tough to get the mattress up into the bedroom due to the small and narrow staircase, the perseverance by us and the Dreams team paid off and it was successfully placed on the bedstead. A good quality, sturdy product. I strongly recommend it!

So much storage! It's brilliant. If you're looking for an ottoman bed, this is perfect. And it was so easy to assemble! We were warned off self assembly, but we gave it a go anyway, and it took about 40 minutes longer (you do have to read the instructions!!) but we managed it. I haven't had a bad night's sleep since we got the bed. :) I will say one thing about assembly! Make sure you put the mattress on to close the bed after it has been assembled - we worried we had put it together incorrectly because it would close but, turns out, it just needed the weight of the mattress!

Although delivery took a little while, as the bedframe had to be ordered, our bed was delivered on the date as arranged, in the time slot agreed, the team were helpful and professional and this bed is the perfect height for us, very solid frame and looks great in the space. It has been worth the wait! We are very pleased with our purchase, both the mattress and the bedframe, we couldn't be happier or more satisfied. Thank you Dreams! The sales team at the Ashford store were brilliant too and very helpful all along the way. Absolutely no issues with this purchase whatsoever.

The Oak finish is very appealing, the bed-frame is sturdy however the headboard allows a slight wobble which is fine if against the wall. The mechanism to lift the mattress for storage is very handy and works well. There are a few chips in the bed-frame but am happy to let this slide as it doesn't affect its appearance noticeably - I would recommend paying extra for the delivery crew to assemble this as they seemed very knowledgeable with their product and had it ready within half an hour. My one annoyance is that I paid full price and can now see offers are available.

Really nicely made bed, fits well together with relatively easy to follow instructions. Trust the instructions when it says the ottoman pistons won't lower the frame without a mattress on it! So have a mattress ready otherwise the bed frame will be fixed in the up position. I have no faults with this bed at all, it really is great. There's loads of storage space underneath and it's great that you can get to all of the space so easily. A little rigid to lower from the up position, but I guess that's because it's still really new and that's certainly not a fault.

We have had this bed for approximately a month. I chose to set the bed up myself and while it is a little tricky it wasn't difficult for myself and my wife. The bed comes in 5 big boxes with the instructions and all associated fixings. Once built the big advantage is that it is on the floor (no legs), so the space in our bedroom is maximised. It is unbelievably sturdy, until we bought and built this bed I dont believe I have slept on anything so quiet! When put together properly there is no creaking which multiplies the sleeping experience. It is perfect.

Very comfortable, sturdy and sylish. Had a problem with one of the pieces which had to be replaced a week later, but that all went very smoothly. I wasn't sure abut the Ottoman style at first, being used to divan drawer or frame under bed storage. I love it though. The mechanism is smooth and solid. The storage is a good capacity. It fits the two IKEA storage case I already had and there is room for two more which will stop the usual dust getting into bedding, towels and any other bits and pieces I might want to hide in there. I'm pleased with this buy

I bought this bed for my son's room to replace his childhood single bed and provide some additional storage for when he is home from university. I needed his help to assemble it - it is a 2 person job. Everything is well labelled and it is a straightforward job for even those with rudimentary practical skills, as long as you follow the clear instructions. It took about 2.5 hours in total and we were taking our time. My son is very pleased with it, the bed looks good, it is a solid structure of good quality materials and most of all he loves sleeping in it!

Very disappointed with this bed. The metal carrier for the matress is about 10cm longer than our matress which is a standard length. If you position the mattress near the headboard your feet hit the metal carrier frame at the foot of the bed. If you position the mattress near the foot of the bed, there is a 10cm gap by the headboard that your pillows fall into when you asleep. Finally, the lipped footboard is a nightmare. Because it is not straight / flat you keep walking into it. Your shins and knees take a real battering as a result. Very poor indeed.

Bought this for my 14 year old son with storage for his stuff. Comes in 5 boxes and Dreams drivers will put the boxes in the room of your choice (they are heavy!!). Instruction to build are your usual pictures (same as other self assemble) and they do need some time to understsnd what your supposed to do. The assembly does take two people and you may need a third to help with the metal frame. Took about 90 minutes but looks great and good quality wood. Service from Dreams was top notch - kept informed about delivery and the drivers are great!

Great ottoman bed. Sturdy, easy to assemble (yes, it is a two person job - at least to assemble the slats and lift function) and the headboard has already received positive comments. Lift function is smooth and appropriately balanced to rise and fall easily with a mattress and bedding on top. The attractive arch in the headboard means that the top and bottom are flush but there is space of a several centimetres at socket height - this works great for me as I have sockets which can still be used and accessed, despite being hidden behind the headboard!

I am very pleased with the Isabella Platform Ottoman Bed, although it is lower than my previous bed I find this more comfortable. I have a king size model and still have saved 15 inches in length from my previous bed. It is clean, attractive and easy to store things underneath. There is much more room with the ottoman than with just drawers underneath the bed. Cannot recommend it enough. It took my husband 1 hour 10 minutes to assemble and the instructions were easy to follow. Remarkably everything we needed was included in the packing.

I bought this (a double) a month ago whilst it's on promotion and it's my best buy so far! It arrives promptly on the delivery day. The delivery guy is very helpful to deliver all packages to the room of our choice. The bed frames arrived in 5 very well packaged boxes. It takes some effort to assemble the bed with the instruction, but once assembled it's a very sturdy bed, with plenty of storage. it looks great with the oak color in my spare room. The bed is expected to last for a very long time. Definitely recommending this bed frame.

This is a brilliant bed, well made, looks great and the amount of storage is amazing. The storage space is a self contained box so your items don't sit directly on the floor. All of our bed linen and towels fitted in here (with more room besides) meaning we could get rid of our old ottoman and save space in our bedroom. The bed is easy to lift to access the storage space and holds itself in place thanks to the lifting system. All in all if you want a great looking, well made bed that provides lots of storage this is a great option.

We spent so much time looking around to find the perfect bed. When we saw this bed in the light wood we both liked it, but loved the sample of the dark wood. However, we could not find a store that supplied the dark wood to view. Therefore, we purchased from the small wood sample and the pictures online. Once the bed arrived, we definitely made the right choice. The storage space under the bed is huge and the colour is perfect. I would advise on the addition of requesting the guy to put the bed together as it feels so solid.

Bought this bed a month ago now, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Combined with the mattress I got, its like sleeping on air. The bed itself is made of high quality materials, the bed hinge is effortless in moving it. The "floor" under the bed is a great added feature, one I did not know about till I relieved the bed, keeps everything off of my hard wood floor underneath the bed. The headboard, which has a slot, and the lip around the base, are perfect for my LED Lights which adds the ambience. Overall an amazing bed.

SO happy with my new bed , looks lovely and the storage is amazing, I was not able to put it together one my own so I contacted the shop that I bought it from and they gave me the name of company that could put it together . They did say this could have been done when it was delivered at a fee , for some reason I was not told that when I purchased it .

Overall a really great bed-frame with nice modern look and an incredible amount of storage. Delivered in 4 relatively easy to handle packages, and relatively easy to put together (needs two people). When it was delivered, we found that one item on the shipping list, an item in the "parts" bag, was missing, but a call to Dreams and one next day delivery later we were all set. One big plus is that there are no distinct legs, the full frame simply sits on the floor, so highly beneficial in spreading the weight across carpet.

I brought this bed frame to provide extra storage space in my small bedroom and I wasn't disappointed. It's a lovely quality frame and I found it easy to put together on my own. It's a lovely solid good looking bed frame and I am really pleased with my purchase. I would recommend this bed frame especially if like me you want to match solid oak bedroom furniture as it really is a good match. I especially like the way the bottom of the frame sits under the top as you don't catch you feet on it even in the smallest of rooms.

My shines remain un bruised weeks on. My old bed frame had a vendetta against me. It constantly jumped out with its big ugly frame and tried to trip me up in the middle of the night. The curved edges, small form factor and slick design make this a comfortably, safe, practical and beautiful bed. The ottoman is... well I can't believe I've gone almost 40 years without one. The additional storage has been vital for such a small flat. I love it, we love it, you'll love it. (If Dreams use this in an ad I want royalties)

i spent quote a long time looking for a bed that offers a lot of storage and at the same time does't look like a 'coffin'. This bed achieves exactly that. It looks great and rather stylish, offers lots of storage under the bonnet, unlike some other ottoman beds, the metal support mesh doesn't go deep inside the bed frame, which allows for more storage without making the bed too high . It is also very easy to lift and the whole construction seems sturdy. Very comfortable to sleep on and quality product.

We have had this bed for several years now and it still looks as good as new. Lots of storage the lifting mechanism still works smoothly. However there is nothing to hold the mattress in place so it does slip around and the slats are quite far apart so we ended up having to put some boarding underneath to make it more comfortable- our previous dreams bed base was really sturdy but had a raised edge which kept the mattress in place. - it's great value and really well made - just have this one niggle.

We bought this bed without seeing it in person, only on the website. We opted for walnut color and the color is slightly darker compared to the photos online. But this is such a beautiful bed frame, a real statement in our bedroom. The curved edges of it have been so cleverly though, the space underneath is massive and with the movable panels I am able to clean under the bed every now and then. It is very sturdy and the materials used are really high quality. Absolutely thrilled with our choice.

The bed is a fantastic quality that feels strong, sturdy and hasnt made a single squeek yet. We paid for the building service and the 2 who came to build it not only built it effieiciently but also cleaned after themselves. They phoned ahead of time to give us an estimate as to when they would arrive and they were accurate to what they said.This was a huge help considering my wife is pregnant and it took all the stress and difficulty out of the process. Will I buy from dreams again? Yes I will

Very impressed with the bed frame, it is absolutely solid, the frame is defonetly of a good quality construction unlike cheaper frames I have gotten in the past, it doesn't creek at night when moving around like other bed frames. The only issue I would say you may have is that you do require two people to build this, specifically when I comes to attaching the hydraulic struts to the part which houses the slats, there is no way around this, trust me you will need two persons for this part.

This bed frame is very sturdy and easy to assemble. I quite happily managed it on my own. The storage space is very useful and easy to access. The only down point is that the mattress delivered is significantly firmer than the one in the shop but that is not a frame issue, more likely the one in the store was old and well bounced on to soften it up. If you buy a mattress to go with this frame make sure you find out how long it has been on display and try the newest one possible.

Love this bedframe! It was really easy to put together between 2 diy-hapless people (I wouldn't bother paying extra for assembly if you own a couple of screwdrivers!), has loads of storage and it is easy to operate the lever / lifting of the mattress (after a few uses). Feels solid even through it is veneer and looks really lovely in the room - I love the cutout in the headboard, it makes the bed itself look smaller in the room and has a lovely natural sheen to it. Very happy!

Was looking for Ottoman in wood in the market, it's the best one we could find. Bought one in walnut colour 1 month back.. was confused abt the height but, when we put a mattress (25 cm deep, firm), we are completely satisfied. One saw at shop had too much clearances between bed and mattress at sides but, mine is perfect. Delivered to room, assembly took 1.5 hrs to build with my wife..if the instructions have notes abt parts in which number box, it would be better!

Very good quality bed, had for a month now and is working absolutely fine. The pull up is very easy, push down is much more difficult- but shows how it is not going to fall on you when you get things ojt the bed :) Took me and my partner 3 hours to build, There is a scuff on an outside panel but for whats its worth the duvet would cover it anyway. Great storage solution for a tiny bedroom in a tiny flat, no compromise on the size though! King size all the way ^_^

Beautiful bed, very strong and sturdy. Easy to put together. Was a little worried at first as without the mattress on top the base stayed upright but as soon as mattress was on it stayed down. Very nice design, the only flaw I would say is the handle for lifting the base, this could have been designed better to suit the frame and also the bolt heads which can been seen on the outside of the frame for the ottoman mechanism - they aren't really in keeping with the wood

SO pleased with the bed frame. Colour is a great match to our walnut wardrobes. The wood grain looks lovely. It was really easy to assemble. The lift up function was quite stiff at first but seems to be easier now( after a couple of months ). Absolutely loving the storage space underneath. I have managed to fit loads of things under there! Freed up floor and drawer space. The slight overhang at the foot end means you don't stub your toes as you walk past.

Really good bed. Easy to build, decent amount of storage space too. Unfortunately, when the bed arrived there was a bolt that hadn't been threaded and wasn't usable and there were no spares which meant I couldn't finish the build, it took around a week to get the new one sent out for me to finally finish it. Staff, however, i can't fault at all. Extremely helpful in store, helped us get the boxes up to the room and then on the phone to sort out the problem.

I'm really happy with my ottoman bed frame. The wood looks super sleek and stylish (and it's proper solid wood - it's quite a heavy frame when all assembled) and it wasn't too bulky. I've got quite a small bedroom so needed something with storage and that wouldn't take up too much room and this did the trick perfectly. The storage is also ample - I've fit 2 full size suitcases, 4 plastic boxes of clothes and a number of shoes and smaller items under there.

Bought this bed for the storage & the great modern design. We felt it was different to all the faux leather ottomans that were for sale & the fact that the real wood smell permeates the air when new is lovely. There is lots of storage & the gas struts are very effective. The one things that does let it down are the wooden boards for the bottom of the storage, under the mattress, which do look a little cheap & out of place with the rest of the design

The Bed frame is flat and stable. The bed frame has excellent walnut wooden finish which is unique comparing to others bed. comparing to our last bed frame which had four legs so if one leg was damaged the bed frame would be unstable. I recommend all to have stable bed frame like this. It has a lot of rooms for storage where we keep our families storage underneath bed frame which is simply great. I will definitely buy same sort of frame in future.

Excellent storage although corners are very sharp and stick out further than the mattress. We had to buy some foam protector off the internet to prevent having permanent bruised shins. Also there is a bit of a gap that a small kitten or child's hand could get into the storage area where the mattress doesn't cover at the foot if the bed. We bought the correct sized mattress si it's obviously part of the design. It will also let dust in I think.

The Isabella bed is good quality with a nice sturdy bottom in the ottoman. Easy enough to put together by ourselves and looks lovely. Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience with Dreams and had to wait over 3 months for delivery when originally quoted 6 weeks. The delivery team battered both the bed and my house when they were delivering the boxes which is why 3 stars have been given. 5 stars for the bed itself and 1 star for Dreams!

After two nights in it, I really love this bed. It's been very comfortable (love the curved headboard!) and really high quality material, but at a surprisingly reasonable price. I'm also very pleased with the amount of storage under the bed. Only minor niggle is that assembly could be easier: it is a bit hard to get some of the screws into the grooves as they cut into plastic and are deeper than the surface, not flush with the surface.

This bedframe is an absolute stunner, I bought it in the darker walnut colour and it is gorgeous. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is because of the base, the floor boards in the ottoman aren't secured in anyway and are slightly too small for the bed so there's a bit of carpet showing through, also there's a cut out hole in one so that you can lift them out but I think it makes it look a little cheaper. Would still definitely recommend!

We needed a sturdy bed to replace our delapidated ottoman. We opted for the Isabella because it was the ideal size and colour for our room. It was pretty easy to put together and feels really solid. We have some vintage furnishings and the walnut compliments the room so well. Plenty of storage and a great improvement on our last ottoman. No movement in the frame and now we've added a topper to a mattress, it feels very luxurious!

Well made and great looking bed. We really didn't want a padded headboard or any sort of tailboard and this looked great on the website. It was easy to put together but does need a second person to help position the slatted base on the lift rails. The internal storage is fantastic and it's easy to lift the base with one hand making this genuinely useable. Really pleased with the bed and the service from Dreams.

We bought two new bed frames when we moved to our new house about 5 years ago - both ordered from Drems. Having used both of them we think, should have ordered the other one Issbella as well. Design and quality excellent, with plenty of storage area underneath. No issues so far with frame, gas pipe. We liked it so much that when it came to buying a new bed frame for spare room, by default it was Issbella again.

Delivered very promptly and is a very nice quality bed. Instructions are clear but can be a little on the vague side, found the construction side of the bed to be quite fiddly. I largely constructed it myself with receiving help on the section which requires the metal slat frame to be screwed to the pistons, took 3+ hours in all. My recommendation is to certainly pay for the bed to be constructed for you.

Good afternoon, is the mattress recessed into the frame structure or does it lie flat above it? I have a longer-than-standard mattress so need to make sure the bed has an even surface with no edges. Also, where is it produced? Many thanks

Answer: There is a slight recess and also there are mattress retaining bars at either end of the frame to be able to hold the mattress in place, so unfortunately the mattress would need to be the correct size for this frame.The frame is produced in the far east.

It seems from some of the reviews that the Isabella bed is not fitted with castors. Is there anything that would prevent me fitting castors of my own should I choose to do so?

Answer: I have assembled these beds and the reason they don't have castors is that this bed is very heavy. Although you may be able to modify this as there is the space, we do not recommend it at all.
