Why our sleep experts loved it

If you're considering investing in the Dream Team Divan Bed Base from Dreams, you're in good company. This bed base has been generating a little but of buzz garnering a decent amount of reviews in a small amount of time. Divan bases like this one are not merely a foundation for your mattress; but also offer additional features that set it apart from the competition. But the question remains: does it truly deliver on its promises?

The Divan base is available in a variety of fabric options, one of which is a luxury ash fabric that has garnered considerable praise for its contemporary appeal. The addition of silver ball feet lends an elegant touch to the overall design. Personally, I find the aesthetic to be both modern and versatile, capable of complementing a wide range of interior styles.

Moving on to build quality, the Divan base has generally received favorable reviews for its sturdiness and construction. However, there are some minor issues that warrant attention, such as the finishing details—excess fabric inside the base and the manner in which the fabric is stapled to the frame, for instance. While the base is undeniably robust, a bit more attention to these finer points could elevate the product from good to exceptional.

Storage is another noteworthy feature with built-in drawers which have proven to be quite practical for storing items like pillows, toys, and bed linens. However, there's room for improvement in terms of clarity regarding drawer placement and weight limitations. While the storage options are undoubtedly practical, providing more detailed information could enhance the overall user experience.

In terms of assembly and installation, the process is generally straightforward. Most customers have found it relatively easy to assemble the base, some even managing to do so single-handedly. Nevertheless, there have been isolated reports of pre-drilled holes for the headboard being misaligned. This suggests that there's room for improvement in quality control to ensure a seamless assembly experience.

Mobility is a somewhat divisive feature. While some customers appreciate the ease of movement provided by the castors, others find this aspect problematic. In my view, the mobility feature serves as both an advantage and a potential drawback proving ideal for those who require frequent repositioning of the bed but may be less ideal for those who prefer a more stationary setup.

I've bought this item this January. I had to wait 1 month and a half to get it but I'm so very pleased with it. I chose the light gray and it pairs beautifully with my white furniture, it's more light than in the picture which was great for me. It's easy to lift and has a lot of storage. It takes a bit of strength to pull down though. I have assembled this bed alone, it takes a bit more time but it's easily manageable. The hardest part is putting the mattress on the bed, which I had to do with the lids up. In the instructions sheet it doesn't mention when to attach the wheels and that should be the first thing you do. After that just put them together side by side, tightly, open the lids and screw the units together. After that just screw the lids together and you're done! It's a very good ottoman and perfect for a tiny house like mine

Great Ottoman divan reason 4 stars is if your short like me you have to get it down half way to then push from mattress! If not strong could be a problem. Plenty of room I bought a double to replace my well worn dreams 4 draw divan base this is much more practical an I would recommend. Fabric is silver grey an looks better in person. Plenty of storage more than draws hopefully will last. Only other thing is the mattress does keep sliding off even though its non slip like my old 1 which never did that! Easy to put together did it ourselves.

We moved home in February and purchased a lot of new furniture of which the silver ottoman based bed and mattress was one. I have to say that although it is in the spare bedroom (which my granddaughter has claimed as hers) I have slept in it on numerous occasions and I must say that I get a good nights sleep......not only is it such a comfy bed but space saving too. It holds a lot. I keep my spare bedding in it and there is still room for some toys. A perfect choice for our new home.

I brought this a few weeks ago. Only disappointment was the hydrochloric mechanism on one side to open and close the ottoman frame with was fitted the wrong way. They should be down not up. This was frustrating as still waiting for it to be replaced. So not used the bed as yet and couldn't as it wouldn't shut even with a mattress on. I had to go into store to explain and they didn't understand until I physically showed them.

Questions and Answers About The Dreams Workshop Ottoman Divan Bed Base

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Image of the post author
Tinasavedbygrace
what is the top made from? Are their slats or is it solid? Is there a weight guide ? Do the clip together or just sit next to each other? thinking they might drift apart leaving gap in middle? Is there a guarentee? How long? What happens if they wont fit

Answer: The divan base is a platform top so no slats are used, it is a sold base. We do not have a weight restriction on the bases but we do recommended that you don't exceed a combined weight of 30 stone. The divan beds are secured together with linking bars so they do not move around. There is a standard one year guarantee on this divan however there is an option at point of sale to purchase and extended guarantee. Please do take care when taking measurements as we do have a goods don't fit policy and you may be charged. If you have any other questions or need any more information please give the customer service team a call and they can help further.

Can the 6 foot super king size be used with 2 single 3 foot matresss? My Mrs likes a firmer mattress and I prefer a softer one.

Answer: Unfortunately not, if you were looking to purchase two separate mattresses you would need to look into Euro Single mattresses which are 10cm longer than a UK standard single. Two Euro singles will make up a Super king Size. This can be quite pricey! We do offer a range of split tension mattresses which might be better for you, one side can be made firmer than the other. Alternately you can pop into store and try the SleepMatch machine together and it will calculate what mattress is the best for both of you.

This bed is going on a hard floor, so I don't want casters. Can I order a different feet to stop the bed moving around?

Answer: Our Classic Divan base comes with Castors we do not offer a different leg option for this range. One of the TheraPur or Sleepeezee bases might be better for you as these come with a glide option. Another route to explore could be purchasing 'castor cups' these are small cups that hold the castor in place so the bed does not move on hard flooring. These are usually reasonably price and come in a standard size.

Whats the difference between your luxury otter man and the classic?

Answer: We do aim to produce all of the product to the highest quality. The main difference is the castors, the Luxury comes with Chrome castors, the classic with Black wheels. The Luxury pistons have a higher gas cylinder compared to the classic and the fabric used is more luxurious on the Luxury base. Kind Regards. Dreams.

We have two single mattresses for our king sized bed. If we get the king-size of this bed we want to keep them slightly separate (so that one person tossing and turning doesn't wobble the other!) ... Is that OK structurally ?

Answer: Unfortunately the two halves of this base must be fixed together with the linking bar in order to provide a secure and stable sleeping area. In addition, the ottoman must also be fixed together in order to allow it to be raised. Therefore we would not advise or recommend keeping these apart.

Hi we have two separate headboards and want two single beds that can either be used as single beds or linked together to form a king size or double. Will this bed work

Answer: This divan can be used as two Euro Small singles is purchasing a King size or Euro Single if purchasing a Superking size, so you will need to purchase mattresses that are 200cm in length to accommodate. Each divan has pre drilled holes to accommodate all UK headboards.

Can these single Devan bases be separated and used as 2 single beds using a king size zip & link mattress?

Answer: Thank you for getting in touch with your question. The single Divan only comes with one base, thus this would not be possible. We would not recommend putting two together, with a king size mattress, as the length of the single is 190 compared to 200 for a king size.
Image of the post author
Edwin Chibbs
Is it possible to use the bed without any castors fitted, to keep the bed low enough to sit on comfortably?

Answer: We do recommend using the castors for ease of movement, to avoid damage to the floor and to complete the look. If you decide to not use the castors this will have no effect on the Divans performance but we would advise you use something to protect your floors.

Can I split the double bed into two singles in the future?

Answer: You may be able to do this with either a king and super king, with a zip and link mattress. The double bed does come in two parts but we do not stock zip and links or individual single mattress of the required size for the double to act as two singles. Thanks, Dreams.

What is the difference between the classic and the luxury ottoman base?

Answer: The range of colours available in the Classic Divan Bases differ to those available in the Luxury range. In addition, the fabric of the Luxury range is a slightly thicker weave in comparison to the fabric on the Classic Divan Bases.

how do you close securely when the mattress is off ? can't seem to close secure needed for moving house any tips?

Answer: Once the mattress has come off the base the pistons release, this is a health and safety feature. If you are moving and need to collapse the base, you can use tape or rope to secure it shut. This shouldn't harm the pistons.

Lisa43
Could you tell me the difference between the classic and luxury base please

Answer: The Classic and Luxury Divans bases are both sturdy frames build in the UK factory. The main differences are visual. The Luxury Divan has a more premium fabric and is supplier with chrome castors to give a more plush look.

How do the wheels lock in place i.e. how does the bed not move? Is there a returns policy if the bed is not comfortable?

Answer: The castors do not lock in place however you shouldnt feel too much movement when the mattress is also on the bed. If you do find the bed is moving, you can purchase castor cups online (unfortunately we do not stock them).

Patmel
Just had ottoman base delivered, but can't close as no mattress yet, how do you close securely when the mattress is off ? Would it ok to fit a strong catch ?

Answer: This is a safety feature. If there is no mattress on the ottoman it will remain open to avoid the lid closing and potentially hurting someone. Please do not attach any clips or brackets as it will damage the base. Kind regards. Dreams.

I'm thinking of getting a super king size. I assume that the mattress has to be removed before operating these ottoman bases, so there would be a lot of heavy handling involved to remove anything from the storage.

Answer: The mattress does not need to be removed when lifting the ottoman up; the mattress can remain on the base. The base has been designed to accommodate the weight of the mattress and still have the ability to lift with ease.

Can this be split into 2 single beds with zip link mattresses?

Answer: The double does not consist of two single beds, the double has a width of 135cm whereas a single has a width of 90cm, however, you can split the king and super king divans to fit king and super king zip and link mattresses.Thanks,

What is the weight limit on the gas struts for a super king size mattress please?

Answer: All of the bed bases are tested to BS EN 1725, then they are tested against a user of approximately 110kg on each side. (Domestic use only). This is the only British standard that indicates frame weight safety.Many

What is the maximum weight you can put in the base? The bed frame itself is a total 135cm wide but what is the inside width of each part of the base?

Answer: All 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.Thanks

Can this bed in super king size be separated to be used as 2 singles?

Answer: The super king could be separated into two single bases, however you wouldn't be able to attach a headboard to each half and one side would have square corners and the other side would have round corners.

I am looking for zip and link Superking ottoman beds for use in a holidayhome.Your bases are linked N to S which is ideal but can they be easily separated i to single beds and are the 'inside' edges in the same upholstery material?

Answer: The bases can be separated into single beds, but please bear in mind that a super king is 200cm in length and a single is 190cm in length.The inside edges are upholstered in the same material.

Hi was wondering which mattress is on the photo please as I would like to buy the bed in a steel blue colour and would love the matching colour mattress or any other mattress in a steel blue colour

Answer: For the steel colour base there isn't a mattress in the photo I'm afraid. This is the base for the ottoman platform that lifts up. Unfortunatley we do not have matching mattresses and divans.Many thanks

I have my own headboard Id like to attach to this base, but need to make sure it will fit Please can you give me the gap between the fixings for the headboard. Thank you

Answer: All the Ottoman's are designed to fit standard UK headboards. As long as your existing headboard, matches the size of the bed, and is UK standard size, it should attach the this base. Hope this help, Dreams.

Can you open the storage if you have a headboard with a pillow stopper

Answer: We don't test the divans with this type of product so cannot provide a definitive answer. If you believe it is going to restrict the ottoman, then we would advise against using the products together. Many thanks,
