Description
60cm Ottoman Bed with 50cm Deep Storage - Gas Lift or Electric Lift
This heavy-duty 60cm ottoman bed is designed for customers who want serious bedroom storage, strong construction and a choice of lift mechanism. Available as either a gas lift ottoman bed or an electric lift ottoman bed, it gives you practical end-lift access to a deep internal storage area beneath the mattress.
With a 50cm internal storage depth, the bed gives generous hidden space for bedding, pillows, blankets, seasonal clothing and everyday bedroom essentials. The total bed height is approximately 60-61cm with glides fitted, or approximately 57cm without castors or glides. The base is built with 18mm faced MDF and a 19mm hidden cross beam support system under the MDF base for added strength compared with standard plywood storage bases.
60cm Ottoman Bed Guide - Storage Depth, Height & Practical Features
Product Specifications
Why Choose a 60cm Ottoman Bed?
A 60cm ottoman bed is ideal when storage capacity and strength both matter. Standard bed frames often leave unused space underneath, while this end-lift ottoman bed turns that area into a practical hidden storage compartment. The 50cm internal storage depth gives you far more usable space than shallow drawer storage, while the gas lift or electric lift options let you choose the access style that suits your room and budget.
The total bed height of 60-61cm with glides fitted gives the bed a comfortable raised feel and helps maximise internal storage. Without castors or glides, the bed height is approximately 57cm, giving you a slightly lower profile while still keeping the same deep internal storage space.
Gas Lift or Electric Lift Options
Choose the gas lift version for reliable pressure-assisted opening, or choose the electric lift version for powered storage access using the wireless remote. Electric lift models include USB port and controls, plus a power supply with emergency lowering control feature for reassurance if the bed ever needs to be lowered manually.
Heavy Duty End Lift Construction
This ottoman bed is built for stronger everyday use. The base is constructed with 18mm faced MDF for durability and a clean finish, while the bottom panel uses 19mm hidden cross beams under the MDF base instead of standard plywood. This stronger support structure is designed to improve storage performance and long-term reliability.
50cm Deep Internal Storage
The main advantage of this ottoman bed is the 50cm internal storage depth. This makes it well suited to larger bedding items such as duvets, pillows, blankets and throws, as well as storage boxes, folded clothing and seasonal items. The maximum recommended storage weight is up to 80kg per half of the ottoman, spread evenly. Everything stays hidden beneath the mattress, helping the bedroom feel cleaner and more organised.
Height Options With and Without Glides
- 60-61cm total bed height with glides: Best if you want the full raised profile and the benefit of fitted castors or glides.
- 57cm bed height without castors or glides: Best if you prefer a slightly lower bed height while keeping the same deep storage area.
- 50cm internal storage depth: Gives generous hidden storage for bulky bedroom essentials.
Best Uses for the Storage Space
- Spare bedding, duvets and pillows
- Seasonal clothes and occasional-use items
- Blankets, throws and bedroom textiles
- Storage boxes, folded garments and household essentials
- Bedrooms where wardrobes, chests or drawers are limited

Complete Dimension Guide
Use this guide to check the full bed footprint, storage depth, base height, mattress height and room clearance before ordering. Measurements are approximate and can vary by model, headboard choice and specification, so always check the product options before purchase.
Important Headboard and Spacing Requirements
- Floor standing headboards: add approximately 8cm to the length of end opening ottomans.
- Side opening ottomans: may require spacers between the bed base and headboard, adding approximately 10cm to the bed length.
- Wingback floor standing headboards: add approximately 10cm to each side of the bed, or around 20cm total extra width.
Base Dimensions Excluding Headboard
| Bed Size | Approximate Width | Approximate Length |
|---|---|---|
| Small Single 2ft 6in | 75cm | 190.5cm |
| Single 3ft | 91.5cm | 190.5cm |
| Small Double 4ft | 122cm | 190.5cm |
| Standard Double 4ft 6in | 137cm | 190.5cm |
| King Size 5ft | 152cm | 200cm |
| Super King 6ft | 183cm | 200cm |
Storage Depth and Base Height Options
| Storage Type | Base Height Including 4cm Feet | Storage Depth | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Ottoman | 37cm | 26cm | Bedding, pillows and lightweight everyday items |
| Extra Deep Ottoman | 44cm | 33cm | Seasonal clothes, blankets and medium storage needs |
| Super Deep Ottoman | 50cm | 39cm | Bulkier items, suitcases and high-capacity storage |
| Jumbo Storage Ottoman | 61cm | Up to 50cm where specified | Maximum storage capacity for bulky bedding, bags and household items |
Approximate Storage Capacity by Bed Size
Storage depth makes a big difference, but total capacity also depends on the bed size. The figures below show approximate internal storage volume in litres, based on common base measurements and storage depths.
| Bed Size | Standard 26cm Depth | Extra Deep 33cm Depth | Super Deep 39cm Depth | Jumbo 50cm Depth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single 3ft | 469 litres | 596 litres | 704 litres | 903 litres |
| Small Double 4ft | 603 litres | 765 litres | 904 litres | 1,159 litres |
| Standard Double 4ft 6in | 677 litres | 859 litres | 1,015 litres | 1,302 litres |
| King Size 5ft | 780 litres | 990 litres | 1,170 litres | 1,500 litres |
| Super King 6ft | 952 litres | 1,208 litres | 1,427 litres | 1,830 litres |
What the Capacity Numbers Mean
A king size ottoman at 26cm storage depth gives approximately 780 litres of storage. The same king size footprint at 39cm super deep storage gives approximately 1,170 litres, while a 50cm jumbo storage version can offer around 1,500 litres where specified.
These figures are a guide to usable storage volume. Actual space can vary slightly depending on upholstery, base construction, support rails, internal fittings and the selected model.
Total Bed Height With Mattress
To estimate the finished bed height, add your mattress depth to the base height. This is useful when choosing between a lower modern feel and a taller high-storage setup.
| Base Type | Base Height Including 4cm Feet | With 20cm Mattress | With 25cm Mattress | With 30cm Mattress |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Ottoman | 37cm | 57cm | 62cm | 67cm |
| Extra Deep Ottoman | 44cm | 64cm | 69cm | 74cm |
| Super Deep Ottoman | 50cm | 70cm | 75cm | 80cm |
| Jumbo Storage Ottoman | 61cm | 81cm | 86cm | 91cm |
Choosing the Right Height Combination
- Low profile, around 57cm to 62cm: standard base with a thinner mattress. Useful for modern rooms, easier access and lower bed preferences.
- Standard height, around 67cm to 69cm: standard or extra deep base with a medium mattress. A practical everyday height for many bedrooms.
- Higher profile, around 74cm to 80cm: extra deep or super deep base with a thicker mattress. Useful for maximum storage and a taller hotel-style feel.
- Jumbo profile, around 81cm to 91cm: jumbo storage base with a 20cm to 30cm mattress. Best for maximum capacity where a taller finished bed height is suitable.
- Comfort tip: when sitting on the edge of the bed, your feet should touch the floor comfortably.

Room Planning Considerations
Essential Measurements Before Ordering
- Ottoman lifting clearance: allow at least 100cm at the foot or side of the bed for the ottoman opening direction.
- Walkway space: aim for at least 60cm around the bed where possible for comfortable access.
- Door clearance: check that the bedroom door can open fully without hitting the bed or headboard.
- Ceiling height: tall floor standing headboards need enough wall and ceiling clearance.
- Window clearance: allow enough space between the headboard and windows for curtains or blinds.
- Delivery route: measure doorways, stairs, landings and tight corners before delivery.
Delivery and Access Requirements
Important: measure all access routes, including doorways, stairs, landings and tight corners. Ottoman beds may be delivered in large pre-assembled sections, and headboards can need additional clearance.
Stairway measurement: check diagonal clearance around stair turns and overhead obstacles to help confirm safe delivery and installation access.
Assembly Instructions
Ottoman Bed Gas Lift Assembly Instructions
How To Assemble Your Ottoman Bed
Welcome to your dream bed setup! Assembling an ottoman bed is a straightforward process when you follow these instructions carefully. Take your time to unpack each component and familiarize yourself with all the accessories before beginning.
Tools Required: Spanners and Allen keys (all bolts and hardware are supplied).
Preparation & Safety Guidelines
Prepare Your Space:
Ensure you have adequate room space for assembly and final positioning. Clear the area completely and lay down protective material on the floor to prevent damage to your flooring.
Important Assembly Points:
- Workspace: Ensure you have a spacious, dry area for assembly
- Tools: Have all appropriate tools assembled and easily accessible
- Foundation: Ensure all legs make firm contact with the ground
- Power Tools: Do NOT use power tools as they may damage the product
- Assembly Order: Do not fully tighten screws until all parts are positioned
- Safety: Do not use the bed while installing the lifting mechanism
- Testing: Check all mechanisms operate properly before use
Step 1 - Fitting Chrome Feet/Castors
Simple push-fit installation: Push the chrome feet into each socket on the base unit. You'll need 4 chrome glides per base unit.
Ensure each foot is fully seated and secure before proceeding to the next step.
Step 2 - Connect Gas Pistons
Gas Piston Installation: Connect the gas pistons to both the lid hinge points and base hinge points using the supplied bolts. Gas pistons can be fitted either way round.
Optional Safety Gas Piston Lock: If supplied, fit the safety gas piston lock to the top hinge point. Ensure correct installation so it can lock the lids in the open position when accessing storage.
Note: The safety lock can be removed when the storage area is no longer being accessed.
Step 3 - Position the Ottoman Bed Base Units
Correct Positioning: Set the ottoman base units into their final position with rounded corners facing outward (as shown in the illustration).
Ensure both units are level and properly aligned before proceeding to the connection step.
Step 4 - Fit U-Clips Between Base Units
Securing the Bases: Slide the 2 U-clips into position to securely connect the two base units together.
Ensure the clips are fully engaged and the bases are firmly connected before proceeding.
Step 5 - Secure The Ottoman Bed Lids
Synchronised Lid Operation
Lid Connection: Using the supplied 100mm plastic-headed bolt, secure the lids together. This enables synchronized lifting of both lids and mattress as a single unit.
Ensure the bolt is properly tightened but do not over-tighten to avoid damage to the lid material.
Step 6A - Securing Headboard (End Lift Beds)
End Lift Headboard Installation
Locate Mounting Holes: Open the bed base and locate the headboard mounting holes. Look for position stickers that mark the correct locations.
Floor Standing Headboards: Use the short bolts to secure the headboard directly to the base.
Strut Headboards: Follow the same procedure if your headboard has wooden support struts.
Step 6B - Securing Headboard (Side Lift Beds)
Side Lift Headboard Installation
Locate Mounting Points: Prior to fitting, locate the holes on the base unit by running your fingers over the bolt hole positions. Position stickers should be visible.
Floor Standing Headboards: Secure the headboard using 4 x 100mm long bolts and position the spacers between the headboard and base units.
Strut Headboards: Repeat the above procedure for headboards with wooden struts.
Assembly Complete!
Congratulations! Your ottoman bed is now ready for use.
Important Safety & Usage Notes
- Effortless Operation: These ottoman beds are designed to require minimal effort to lift the mattress and access storage
- Mattress Installation: Two people are required to place the mattress on the bed base
- Installation Process: One person must hold the lids down while the second person positions the mattress on the base
- Safety Lock Recommended: We strongly advise purchasing our safety lock mechanism for added security during storage access

FAQ
FAQ - Ottoman Bed Questions
Welcome to SoSoft Beds' Ottoman Bed FAQ! Here you'll find answers to the most common questions about our ottoman storage beds. Can't find what you're looking for? Contact us - we're happy to help!
-
Q1: What sizes are available for ottoman beds?
A1: Our ottoman beds are available in all standard UK sizes: Single (90cm x 190cm), Small Double (120cm x 190cm), Double (135cm x 190cm), King Size (150cm x 200cm), and Super King (180cm x 200cm). All sizes can accommodate standard UK mattresses.
-
Q2: How much storage space do ottoman beds provide?
A2: Our ottoman beds offer exceptional storage capacity. Standard models provide 37cm storage height, while our deep storage options offer 47cm height. A double bed typically provides approximately 0.5-0.7 cubic meters of storage space - enough for seasonal bedding, pillows, blankets, and clothing.
-
Q3: Are ottoman beds easy to lift and operate?
A3: Absolutely! All our ottoman beds feature heavy-duty hydraulic gas pistons that make lifting the mattress platform completely effortless. The gas-assisted mechanism means you can easily lift the bed even when the storage compartment is fully loaded. The pistons are rated for thousands of operations.
-
Q4: What's the difference between side lift and end lift ottoman beds?
A4: Side lift ottoman beds open from the side (usually the right side when facing the bed), while end lift opens from the foot of the bed. Side lift is ideal when you have limited space at the foot of the bed, while end lift provides easier access when the bed is positioned against a wall. Both offer the same storage capacity.
-
Q5: How strong and durable are ottoman beds?
A5: Our ottoman beds are built to last. They feature premium timber construction with MDF-lined bases, hidden cross beams for extra strength, and commercial-grade gas pistons. The storage platform can support up to 150kg, and all beds come with a 5-year structural warranty covering frame, hinges, and gas pistons.

Q6: Do ottoman beds come with mattresses included?

-
Q8: How difficult is it to assemble an ottoman bed?
A8: Ottoman beds typically take 45-60 minutes to assemble with basic tools. All beds come with comprehensive instructions and all necessary fittings. The modular design means heavy lifting is minimal. We also offer a professional delivery and assembly service for £49.99 if you prefer.
