The extra storage space in your home means you can keep rooms neat and orderly, and ottoman beds and daybeds are the ideal way to store items. However, with daybeds and ottomans offering great storage solutions, which one is right for you? Take a look at these pros and cons of each here …
Sofa beds to store things
Daybeds are a popular choice for storage, as items are easily accessible through drawers at the base of the daybed. Most daybeds contain at least two drawers that are deep enough to store anything from sheets to books to toys.
Depending on the product you choose, you will be able to access these drawers by pulling them out or sliding them through a panel to access the area under the bed. In most cases, going for pull-out drawers is a better option, as it’s easier to store items neatly in these, and since you’ll take them out right away, you’ll be able to clearly see what’s inside.
One of the main disadvantages of daybeds for storage is that in most cases you will have to pay more for drawers, they usually cost between £ 30 and £ 100 or more depending on how many drawers you need and the cost of the actual couch and mattress. . The daybeds are ideal if you need easy access to items stored in the bed, and because the drawers are built in, they offer a reliable and stylish storage solution.
Ottomans for storage
Ottoman beds work in a similar way to a traditional ottoman in that to access items stored in the base, simply lift the top half of the base. Ottomans are a good option if you have a lot of items to store as you have access to a space the full size of your bed that gives you plenty of storage space, especially if you have a King bed.
Ottomans are generally classic in style and many leather ottoman beds can add a touch of glamor to the bedroom. One downside to an ottoman is that some people may have a hard time accessing the storage space as the entire top half of the base needs to be lifted. Ottomans are great for storing items you don’t need to use regularly, like replacement sheets or duvets, and many feature an easy lift or power lift feature to make it easy to open up storage space.
One possible downside to ottomans is that they tend to be more expensive than daybeds. If you need a lot of storage space, as well as a super stylish bed, ottoman beds are a great option for your home.
Whether you prefer daybeds or ottomans for your storage solution, you will find many comfortable beds to choose from in the large selection of ottomans and daybeds at KDBeds.
