Why our sleep experts loved it

A divan is an iconic fixture in a bedroom, combining practicality with a splash of style. The beauty lies in its simplicity and versatility, an individualized statement tailored for comfort. Today, we'll dive into a comprehensive review of one such divan, the 'Simply by Bensons Divan Base on Castors', delving into its design, construction, suitability, as per customer thoughts, and of course, a final verdict.

Design And Features

The Simply by Bensons divan base on castors is a showcase of understated elegance and practicality. Despite its limited colour selections, namely Cool Grey and Dune Beige, it often leaves a mark with its sheer simplicity. An interesting feature is the freedom to customise, whether it’s the storage options (2 drawers, 4 drawers, 2+2 drawers, full Ottoman, or a sleek no-drawers look) or fabric choices. The divan base comes with castors, easing its mobility and adding a convenience factor. The British Kitemark accreditation is a testament to the trust and quality reliability this product brings to the table.

Construction

The Simply by Bensons Divan Base is constructed using timber sourced from responsibly managed forests. This satiates the environmentalists in us, ensuring we partake in a sustainable and responsible lifestyle. However, it's crucial to blend in environmental consciousness without compromising construction quality. Be assured, this divan base meets those regulations. Upholstered in luxury fabrics, the divan combines both aesthetics with functionality. The additional storage options are useful, albeit not as spacious as one might expect. The castors with their easy movement make room transitions effortless. Although, concerns about their inability to lock securely need to be addressed.

Suitability

This divan base might not appeal to someone looking for flamboyant colour choices, as options are limited to Cool Grey or Dune Beige. However, those who appreciate minimalistic design and functionality over flamboyance would find a perfect match in this divan. The variety in storage options, the choice of fabric, and the practicality of a base on castors contribute to its suitability for many. It serves as an efficient solution for those seeking to organize bedroom essentials without compromising on style or quality.

What Customers Thought

As reviewers, we value genuine customer feedback. Most reviews paint a positive picture of the Simply by Bensons Divan Base. The common feedback revolves around its ease of assembly, comfort, robustness, and convenience of movement with castors. The affordability factor also finds acknowledgment amongst users.

Users highly appreciate the additional storage options provided by the drawers, citing their usefulness in organising essentials. Some customers, however, mention the need for cast cups to prevent the divan from moving around on the wooden floor. A few customers have also suggested a keen interest in more spacious drawers.

In some scenarios, the divan base has found a place in customers' guestrooms, establishing its trust among users as a sturdy and reliable option for visitors. Despite not seeing it in real life, some customers have expressed satisfaction with the divan base, trusting the reviews and proceeding with the purchase.

The Verdict

After a thorough examination of all features and first-hand customer reviews, here's the verdict on the Simply by Bensons Divan Base on Castors. This divan base is a well-constructed, affordable, and convenient option for those seeking to blend style with practical functionality. The conservation-conscious will find a friend in the responsibly sourced timber frame. However, the lack of fabric options and lockable castors might deter some potential customers. Also, the storage options, while appreciated, could benefit from a bit more space.

In conclusion, if easy maintenance, affordability, comfort, and minimalistic style take precedence over fabric versatility and extravagant storage, then the Simply by Bensons Divan Base on Castors may just be the ideal addition to your bedroom.

We opted for the 'Ottoman' style of bed, and this review pertains only to that. The reason we opted for this style is that the divan drawers required more space than we had in our bedroom, rendering them ineffective. The Ottoman style lifts the mattress platform (and mattress) off the divan base to reveal loads of usable storage. One thing to note is that the manufacturing process clearly does not use pre-drilled holes for the divan bases (there are two to each double bed), The result of this was that our two bases were about 1 inch different. I had not expected this and we had not opted for the bed assembly service. However, this is easy to fix since the lift mechanism incorporates adjustment holes so it simply required a few minutes work with a tape measure and to undo and tighten four flat-head screws; they are now perfectly flush with one another. This is important since the two divan bases and the mattress platform all screw together and without getting them flush, they will not do so. This, however, is a minor consideration and not even worthy of docking a point off (I might have deducted half a mark but cannot), and my wife especially is very happy with this bed.

Absolutely Fantastic..I'm not just saying that ! me and my partner absolutely love our new bed and one of the best things was trying the beds first and getting it absolutely right.It proves we weren't treated as people who just get sold any bed, but sold the right bed. The only upsetting thing is the fact that we put up with our old bed for so long and missed out on our new bed for so long.we both tell everyone about our new bed.so much so that we've told some friends twicethank you Benson for beds a real life changer we never thought how much a new bed "that is the right bed" would change everything I am genuinely and honestly not just saying this we hole heartedly mean it..thank you very much again

The mattress is harder than expected Did wonder if I should have chosen a softer one but that would have been 150 extra Although the new mattress is the same thickness as the previous one, the bed is about 5 inches higher than my previous bed, which I find uncomfortable for sitting on for some aspects of dressing. I should have kept the bottom part of my previous bed as it was much better quality. The top of the new mattress is strange as the plastic ridge along the sides is much lower one side than the other! Product defect? All in all I would advise other customers to take care when purchasing. I really need another new double bed so I may choose elsewhere and keep this for guests.

Super happy with the bed base purchased . I was looking for something in the cheaper range and actually ordered this without visiting any of the stores so wasn't to sure if I was actually going to like this when it arrived but the gamble paid off , the colour is lovely and goes really nicely with my neutral room. The bed base is sturdy and I have had no issue with it changing the way my mattress feels which I have had issues with on other bed frames. I purchased the base with no drawers , therefore I did not add the castors to the base and I think this makes it look slightly more expensive than it is.

I knew that I wanted a new double bed and that was it. To my relief I was shown several beds, the different levels of firmness and softness explained and I could lie on some (shoes and all) to experience the difference. Then there was the choice of with or without under bed drawers. I chose to have two - for sheets, pillow cases etc. Next we discussed headboards, did I need one? Did I sit up in bed and read,, drink a morning cup of tea- go no further I needed a headboard..There was a choice of colour and style. I happpily bought bed and headboard. Excellent, informative staff.

This is a lovely comfortable bed and mattress. Eric at Stockport shop was very helpful and made everything easy. I was kept fully informed throughout the process of purchasing and delivery. I had a text message from the driver who told us when they would arrive for delivery and they were on time. The driver Rob and his assistant Dan were fabulous guys. Very efficient very quick and very professional. They took all the packaging away along with the old mattress. Thank you so much I will certainly recommend Bensons and their staff to anyone who want a professional service.

I had wanted an ottoman style bed base for a long time and was not disappointed with my Bensons purchase. There is loads of storage room and the base is very well made. I love the fabric covering the base. It seems very good quality and is a nice stylish grey which fits with any decor and means you don't need a valance. Also, I liked the way you could mix and match the bed bases and mattresses. We even got the same mattress and bed base in a small double size. Totally chuffed with my purchase.

I am pleased with my Ottoman divan base. It is roomy and able to accommodate / store quite a bit of stuff. I did have a slight problem with the gas strut's. It became difficult to close it. I contacted customer services who were very helpful and sent me replacement struts But with no instructions of how to change them. initially I had paid extra for the company to assemble the base incase I couldn't. So with no instructions I a little stuck. But I will contact them again to address this.

A good solid base with decent sized drawers. The castors allow it to be moved easily when you want to clean underneath it. I received lots of emails keeping me in touch and advising me how to prepare for delivery. The delivery was quick and more or less on time. Just wonder if we might have had a little help with the unpacking and putting together? I wanted to buy from a reputable company not some fly-by-night which is why I chose you. All in all, we are very happy.

The divan base is perfect for putting bedding in. I have an Ottaman but what with sheets etc I found I did not have enough room for pillow cases and towels. The half draw is superbly designed to fit around a bedside table or cabinet. In this I have used it for putting table cloths in. A very well designed divan base and with castors, what more could you ask for? To save money we fitted it together ourselves.!!

Very happy with our space saving Ottoman Bed Base, it's early days but the bed has a solid structure on castors, covered in a nice fabric albeit not very thick and the hydraulic mechanism is sturdy. The head of the bed has 2 x access points on each side to secure a head-board and the required fixings x 4. The whole process from purchase in store, despatch to delivery was communicated at every stage.

Was happy with sales and delivery staff - they were excellent and very nice - delivery was great only had to wait a couple of weeks - have one complaint about the base in that one of the drawers has already dropped and is no longer flush with the other one - and what's inside the drawer is very light weight - hopefully I might get an answer as to why it's done this through my review

The Ottoman bed is exactly what i wanted. Unfortunately it has come slightly damaged. The two parts of the base, there is a chip and for the life of me, I cant get the bolt to catch the other side of the lid of the Ottoman so the base lifts like it should do, as one full piece. They have now agreed to send a technician out after trying to VIDEO us trying to put the bolt through!

Had a 2-3 week wait for delivery but knew this when we ordered. Could choose delivery date and was kept updated prior to delivery . Good quality divan . Can't comment too much on comfort as that is down to the mattress. Ordered a new mattress from another company and still waiting for delivery over 4 weeks later !! I would recommend this divan and good service from Bensons.

Hi The bed was for my 20 year old son and he has said that it's very good. He likes that it's higher than his previous bed. My husband and my bed is going to be replaced shortly and we have decided that we'll order the same bed from you. The whole service was great from ordering to deliver and the quality of the product. The gentleman who delivered the bed were very good.

l finally got round to buying a new bed. I did lots of research on online before doing a short list and then making a final choice of buying one from Bensons. In my price range Bensons were by far the best place to go. The bed l chosen was from the Paignton range. Great bed. I cannot fault it. I wholeheartedly recommend the bed and the store. Thank you.

I'm so pleased with this bed. After not viewing it in real life I was sceptical, however trusted the reviews from other people and proceeded. The delivery men were very friendly and delivered to my first floor flat. I didnt pay for them to put it together and found this really easy. Also love the beige colour and got the matching headboard.

Bought one of Bensons own beds. Staff very friendly and helpful. The bed is extremely comfortable. After three weeks I noticed one of the buttons in the centre of the bed is protruding and a little uncomfortable if lying on that part of the bed. Have reported it so hopefully it will be repaired. Other than that a very nice bed.

My ottoman divan is brilliant. What a great purchase. Looks very smart, in pale grey fabric, so easy to open, even I can open it, a small pensioner!! Currently storing the contents of some of my kitchen cupboards while kitchen being replaced! Has a wooden base unlike some from other stores which just have a fabric bottom.

Quality is as expected by the description provided by the seller. However, the customer service support on the telephone line lacks flexibility or understanding. The waiting time for a product paid in advance is long (10-11 days where for example if I have to go and buy it , I'd feel to be better organised on my own).

Pleased with the divan base, reasonable price and plenty of storage. The only gripe is we had to assemble ourselves, although Mike from the eastbourne branch kindly offered to help us, he was excellent.

A well made base and with good storage. Too high for my wife's preference and to be fair - it is! Perhaps if we had tried the base and mattress together in the showroom then we would not have chosen it.

Lovely Ottoman Divan Base, as mine is only a 4' (120cm) bed I did wonder if there would be enough storage underneath, but I needn't have worried, everything fitted in with space to spare. Great base.

It looks great and is well made. There is one problem that I found, I could only fix a headboard bolt in one end of the bed ( the wrong side for my room if allowing access to the drawer side)

We already had this divan in a double for my son and have been so impressed we decided to treat ourselves. For the money it is superb, massive amount of storage and easy to open and shut.

Only drawback is that the casters make the bed move when you turn over during the night. Other than that it would have been a 5 star as it's comfortable and effective for my spine.

Great. Easy to lift and fantastic to have the extra storage.. Not sure how robust the material covering the outside so we purchased the extra insurance coverage for damage.

Bed comfortable. Only problem I thought it would come assembled, except for headboard, which it did not and it was a little difficult for us to do, because of health issues.
