7 Best Trending Divan Beds 2024
*This is a collaborative guest post
Divan beds are popular because they are brilliantly configurable with or without a headboard, with or without built-in storage, with multiple fabrics – you get the idea. It’s a level of customisation other bed frames can’t match.
2024’s most popular divans feature interesting fabrics like teddy bear fabrics, unique headboards like winged styles, and luxurious touches like chrome feet. Built-in drawers are the most popular optional splurge.
Most people also get a divan with a mattress included to save money – you will typically save £200 to £300, so it makes sense on a budget.
You have another decision to make when buying a divan – headboard or no headboard – and the decision mainly depends on whether you intend to sit up in bed. If you do, get a headboard. If not, save your money. Headboards also add 10-15cm to the length of a bed, so if your bedroom is short, it might be best to get a base.
Now, without further ado, these are the most popular divan beds in 2024 so far:
1. Relyon Saltford 1,000
The Saltford 1,000 is a luxurious divan with plush linen and velvet fabrics, multiple headboard options including classical and modern options, different base height choices (41 cm, 32 cm), and an incredible mattress.
The mattress boasts 1,000 pocket springs set into a double layer for maximum support across the entire sleep surface. It has a medium feel (best for side sleepers), natural fillings, and hypoallergenic fibres for maximum comfort.
2. Giltedge Beds Sussex
The Sussex is offered with a gorgeous range of Heritage fabrics, plush velvets, and teddy fabrics for something super-soft (we love the teddy grey). You can add the headboard as an option with an attractive, cubed design.
The mattress is firm, with open coil springs and fibrous fillings rather than foam – ideal if you want to lay on top of your bed without any sinkage.
3. Silentnight Miracoil Ortho
The Miracoil Ortho is Silentnight’s best option for a firm sleep, with a zoned Miracoil mattress with extra firm tensioning – best for front sleepers.
The base sits on chrome gliders, and optional storage solutions include 2 drawers, a slidestore, or a side or end-lift ottoman. Fabrics include linens, velvets, and teddy fabrics. We love linen fabrics on this bed frame for their subtler texture.
4. Sleepeezee Wool Supreme 2400
The Sleepeezee Wool Supreme 2,400 uses 100% British wool in its construction with a chemical-free damask cover for a comfortable and breathable sleeping surface – perfect if you struggle with that new mattress smell.
Choose a platform or sprung-edge top to complement the double tier of 2400 traditional pocket springs. This divan also lets you choose multiple headboards, fabrics, and colours to make it your own.
5. Giltedge Beds Silk 1000
The Giltedge Beds Silk 1,000 divan is a fantastic mid-range divan bed + mattress with a thick layer of memory foam to contour your body.
Optional storage solutions, including various drawer configurations and lift-up ottoman options, provide ample space for organising bedding and clothing. We think geometric and cube headboards look best on it.
6. Giltedge Beds Tuscany
The Giltedge Beds Tuscany 1,000 offers a perfect blend of comfort and style with a soft silk knitted fabric cover and multi-layered fillings for a sumptuous sleeping surface.
The divan base has over twenty fabric options, including velvet and teddy ones, and you can choose from a full-length floor-standing headboard (135cm high) or a headboard with wooden struts (61cm high) in a matching fabric.
7. Relyon Drayton 3,400
If money’s no obstacle, the Drayton 3,400 takes the cake with 3,400 pocket springs and lambswool cover layers. Fillings include merino wool, mohair, and cotton, giving you the best night’s sleep without synthetic shenanigans.
The divan base is pure luxury with a platform or sprung edge top – the sprung edge top provides additional bounce for greater mobility. You can also specify a height for the base, such as 32cm or 41cm, to suit your preference.
