The ottoman bed, done properly

Storage that lasts a lifetime. Not a lift or two.

Most ottoman beds sag, squeak and give out within a year. Ours are built in the same British workshop that makes ottomans for the country's most prestigious bed houses, and backed by a full 15 year guarantee.

The cheap ottoman trap

You paid for storage. You got a headache.

The market is flooded with ottoman beds built to a price, not a standard. If you have owned one, you already know the story.

Failure 01

The lift gives out

Under-spec gas pistons weaken fast. Within months the base won't stay up, or crashes down on the way to your storage. A safety risk you live with every day.

Failure 02

The frame sags & squeaks

Thin MDF and stapled joints flex under a real mattress. The base bows, the slats creak, and the storage becomes a space you're afraid to load.

Failure 03

The guarantee is a myth

A 5 year warranty that excludes the mechanism, the fabric and anything that actually breaks. When it fails, you're on your own, and buying again.

Buy cheap, buy twice. Or buy once, properly.

Handmade in Britain

The workshop behind the names

We build the ottomans luxury brands put their name on.

For over 50 years our British workshop has manufactured beds for the top end of the market. When prestige houses like Vispring needed ottoman bases worthy of their name, they came to us.

Same craftsmen. Same materials. Same engineering. Without the four-figure designer markup.

The difference between a budget ottoman and a genuine luxury one was never the badge on the headboard, it was who built the base underneath. Now you can buy that base directly.

Why The Sleep Co

Built to a standard the high street can't match.

Every reason a cheap ottoman lets you down is a reason ours won't.

Full 15 Year Guarantee

Not a token warranty riddled with exclusions. A genuine 15 year promise covering the frame and the mechanism, free with every ottoman bed.

European & Emperor Sizes

Sizes almost nobody else makes as ottomans. Whether you sleep on a European double or a vast Emperor, we build the storage base to fit it exactly.

Rare & Made to Fit

Electric Ottoman Beds

Lift your entire base at the touch of a button. Effortless, silent, and perfect for anyone who finds a manual lift a strain. Almost unheard of elsewhere.

Motorised Lift

Reinforced Gas-Lift

Heavy-duty twin pistons rated for years of daily use, on a solid sprung base that holds its shape under a real mattress and a full load.

Built to Endure

Made in Britain, 50+ Years

Designed and hand-built in our own UK workshop by craftspeople who have made beds for five decades. Not imported, not badge-engineered.

Barely lifting a finger

The electric ottoman bed.

Why heave a heavy base by hand? Our motorised ottomans raise and lower the entire platform at the press of a button, smoothly and silently, giving you full access to the storage below with zero effort.

  • Effortless one-touch lift, ideal for those with limited strength or mobility
  • Quiet, controlled motor, no crashing or slamming
  • The same 15 year guarantee and SATRA-grade build
  • A feature the budget brands simply don't offer

Our last ottoman collapsed within a year. This one is a different world, the lift is solid and the storage swallows all our winter bedding. You can feel the quality the moment it arrives.

I went for the electric version because of my back. Best decision. One button and the whole base glides up. My partner said it feels like a bed from a five-star hotel.

Couldn't find a European size ottoman anywhere until I found The Sleep Co. Beautifully made, and the 15 year guarantee gave me total peace of mind. Worth every penny.
