Single Divan Beds

How big is a single divan bed with mattress?

As their name implies, a single divan bed is sized to sleep a single person. Thus, single divan bedframes are sized to fit a 190cm (6ft 3”) long and 90cm (3ft) wide mattress, which is more than adequate for adults and teenagers alike.

Although our 3ft divan bed and mattress combos can only fit a single occupant, their generous size means that you’ll still have plenty of room to roll around and snuggle up before drifting off to sleep.

What are the benefits of a single divan bed?

Although a double bed or even a king-sized bed can make for a dreamy sleep experience, if you only have a small bedroom where there isn’t much space for furniture, larger beds can be more of a hindrance than a help.

This is what makes a 3ft single divan bed with a mattress such a good option. Sleek in appearance and hiding extensive storage options, the advantage of single divans lies in their flexibility, coming with different types of under-the-bed storage to stowaway sheets and toys, at no extra cost to the look of your room or the comfort of your bed.

What to consider when choosing your single divan bed

Like all divan beds, when selecting a single divan bed with a mattress, you need to consider several important options. For example, one of the first things you’ll need to decide on is what sort of storage mechanism you want – or if want to include any storage at all.

In general, what sort of divan storage option you choose is down to personal taste. Classic divan drawers come with plenty of space and can be adapted to be full 4-drawer sets or 2-4 smaller draw combinations. Ottoman divan beds, on the other hand, let you make use of the entirety of your divan bed’s interior, but do require you to pull the whole bed up.

On top of this, many of our single divan beds with storage also incorporate the design of wheels underneath the bed, allowing you to easily transport your bed around the room when decorating or accommodating guests.

Outside of single divan storage options, you’ll also be presented with the option of whether or not you want to purchase a 3ft single divan bed with a mattress or simply a divan bed on its own, allowing you to upgrade your old single bedframe while keeping your current mattress.

What mattress should you choose for single divan beds?

Being sized to match the standard single bed measurements stated in our UK mattress and bed size guide, any single mattress should fit on a single divan bed, no matter the style or design. From orthopaedic mattresses to latex beds, single divans can accommodate them all.

Do single divan beds come in two pieces?

Yes, while many double divans and king-size divan beds are split into quarters, single divan bases are almost exclusively split into two halves. This is to make it easier to position and move your single divan, even if there are tight stairs and access corridors.

And for ease of construction, the parts fit together just like a double or king-size divan, using linking bars or clips to create a strong bond between the two halves.
