Introducing the Staples & Co Power Electric Ottoman Divan Base
To begin understanding the Staples & Co Power Electric Ottoman Divan Base, one must appreciate the passion Staples & Co has for creating products aiming at improving your sleep environment. This Electric Ottoman Divan Base is not merely a platform for your mattress; it's a sophisticated piece, cleverly designed to elevate your sleeping experience while also catering to your storage needs. The personal intrigue I felt towards this product was strong, given its many attractive features. I had the opportunity to evaluate this product's performance in-store, and in this review, I will cover its design, construction, suitability, customer views, and finally provide my well-rounded verdict.
Design and Features
The minute your eyes meet the Staples & Co Electric Power Ottoman Divan Base, its modern and superior design makes an memorable impression. This bed base isn't simply a merger of style, convenience, and comfort, rather it's a lifestyle upgrade. The aesthetics and practicality are gently fused, producing a perfect blend that complements any room's decor. Heading the list of features is the electric mechanism, fully automatic and operated via a wireless, hand-held remote control. This removes any manual effort that traditional ottomans demand. Considering those with challenges in installation, the Power Ottoman provides a easy 1, 2, 3, set-up - You simply position the base, connect the power pack, and plug in. It's that straightforward.
Serving up plentiful storage, the divan base opens fully from the front, providing a vast space beautifully lined with a classic wood effect interior veneer. This spacious feature allows users to de-clutter their rooms, strategically hiding away any undesirables. The simplicity continues with the hand-held wireless remote control, featuring not only automated open and close functions, but also a built-in torch. To add technological flair, the divan base is equipped with a USB port, fulfilling your device charging needs. Giving thoughtfulness to unplanned events, in case of power failures, an emergency lowering function is incorporated that ensures safe closure of the base, ensuring users are never left stranded.
Construction
We then move on to the product's construction, an integral aspect that ensures durability and longevity. Expertly crafted, this bed base is solidly constructed for purpose. The Electric Power Ottoman is hand upholstered, catering to a variety of personal tastes with a choice of premium fabric selections. From velvet to warm faux leather and linen, each texture comes with style unique to itself. Catering to different tastes, there are a variety of colours. Whether you prefer neutral tones for a classic look or a burst of lively colour, the choice is yours.
Suitability
Suitability measures how well a product meets the customer's needs, and the Staples & Co Power Electric Ottoman Divan Base checks most boxes. Aimed at individuals who appreciate comfort and flair, this Ottoman Divan Base has a universal appeal. It is particularly suitable for those seeking additional storage without want for manual lifting. It is also a perfect solution for tech lovers wishing for bedside device charging capabilities. However, for those with limited power outlets or prefer a minimalist bedroom setting, the electric feature might be superfluous.
What Customers Thought
Owners are mostly very happy with it, and the electric lift is the reason. It comes up again and again from older buyers and from people who can no longer manage a manual ottoman: one owner wrote that "my hands have arthritisus no longer have to wait for husband to lift it up", another that it is "well worth the money when you are getting on in years and cannot manage a manual lift anymore but don't want to lose the space". The storage gets the same reception ("So much storage , and so easy to use"), and the build is described as solid, with one owner noting a "Quiet motor that has a smooth rise and fall" and another the "handy torch on remote". Delivery and the free assembly are praised too: "Put together for free by the delivery team".
It isn't faultless. A few owners had trouble with the lift itself: one base "only lifts up and does not automatically close", another was "lifting unevenly" soon after delivery, and the follow-up on that one was slow ("really poor service!"). A light mattress can stop it closing, as one owner found: "my mattress is not heavy enough to allow the remote control to complete close bed down". Beyond that the gripes are small: a base "very slightly misaligned where the beds connect lengthways" and a fitting missing from a delivery.
The Verdict
Personally and professionally speaking, the Staples & Co Power Electric Ottoman Divan Base is a solid product. It provides a blend of functionality and aesthetics whilst incorporating today's technological necessities. Its key features, including the smooth electric power operation, impressive storage capacity, and the selection of sophisticated fabrics, set it ahead of many competitors in the market. However, the electric feature, which heavily depends on batteries and a power supply, might not be for everyone, and Staples & Co should offer an eco-friendlier alternative in future models.
Nonetheless, if luxury coupled with convenience is what you're seeking, the Electric Power Ottoman Divan base is worth considering. The benefits far outweigh any concerns, and judging by the reviews, it has lived up to expectations for most owners.
For those anticipating a splendid bed experience, the Staples & Co Power Electric Ottoman Divan Base could well be one's lifestyle upgrade, just as it aims to be. As a final note, however, always remember that comfort is a personal experience and what works for one may not suit another. Therefore, it is always beneficial to test and evaluate how a product fits into your individual requirements before investing.
