Choose Ottoman Beds for Function and Style
Years ago, consumers needing room were limited to uncomfortable sofa beds that often provided a sleepless night instead of a decent night’s sleep. However, modern ottoman beds supply function, style and comfort.
Ottoman beds can add beauty and storage to a room.
Some ottomans have attachable headboards, which creates the appearance of a traditional bed and enhances comfort when relaxing or reading on an ottoman bed.
They are available in many sizes so finding one to meet your space constraints is simple. The wide selection of ottoman beds make them available in many price ranges to satisfy any budget.
General Features and Benefits
Ottoman beds do not have high sides like a traditional bed, so they appear more like a large rectangular stool. Since a bed ottoman does not have sides, it gives the room a more spacious appearance because it is narrower than a bed with sides.
They are usually made with padded fabric making them inviting and comfortable. When purchasing a traditional ottoman bed, you can often select a mattress of your choice to complement the frame and your sleeping preferences.
Leather Ottoman Beds
Leather ottoman beds have stitching and padding that make them feel and look luxurious. Leather ottomans have a base which rises to provide ample storage space.
However, keep in mind that it is best to store infrequently needed items in ottoman beds because accessing them requires lifting the mattress, which can be inconvenient.
Nevertheless, an ottoman is ideal for storing large items that may not otherwise fit in a drawer or cabinet.
Use an ottoman bed to store out of season sweaters, extra bedding, quilts or other large items.
Many leather ottoman beds are faux leather. When selecting a style, pay attention to what sizes the manufacturer offers. Although it is possible to purchase an ottoman leather bed in other colors, black and brown leather ottomans are extremely popular.
Ottoman Sleeper Beds
These beds have foldable mattresses. They are an exceptional sleeping option for guest rooms, studio apartments and other areas where space is minimal. They can conveniently fold compactly for use as a footrest or extra seating.
When it is time to sleep, simply unfold the ottoman to create a bed. Covers can also be purchased for ottoman sleeper beds, which can protect the fabric if people choose to prop their feet on it, or help disguise that the ottoman converts to a bed.
Sofa Bed Ottomans
Sofa bed ottomans have mattresses that pull out, but they are not as compact as foldable sleeper beds. They are available in many style and fabrics, so they are the perfect accent to any room.
Also they can provide an extra place to sleep in an office or guest room where you do not need a traditional bed.
A bed ottoman is an excellent choice to complement your decor, sense of style, and needs. The endless styles make ottoman beds a classic, comfortable option for a home, apartment or even an office.
