Standard storage bases are rated up to 100kg spread weight per base unit where specified. Reinforced bases handle compact suitcases and heavier items at up to 250kg spread weight per base unit where specified. Storage depths run from 26cm standard to 50cm Jumbo where specified.

Ottoman bed questions answered
Side lift or end lift — which do I need?
Check where the clear floor space is. If 60–80cm is free at the foot of the bed, end lift works. If the foot end is against a wall or wardrobe and one long side is accessible, side lift is the better fit. Measure both before ordering.
What is the weight limit for ottoman storage?
Standard storage is rated up to 100kg spread weight per base unit where specified. Reinforced storage is rated up to 250kg spread weight per base unit where specified. Spread the load evenly and confirm the exact rating per product before ordering.
What storage depths are available?
Standard 26cm, extra deep 33cm, super deep 39cm, and Jumbo Storage at 50cm internal depth with 61cm total bed height including glides and lid where specified. Not all sizes and lift directions are available at every depth — confirm per product.
Does the mattress need to be removed to access the storage?
No. The gas-lift platform raises the mattress and base together as one unit. The mattress stays on the platform throughout.
Can a suitcase fit inside an ottoman bed?
Check storage depth and internal dimensions per product. Standard 26cm suits folded soft storage. Extra deep 33cm or super deep 39cm gives more clearance for compact bags. Jumbo 50cm gives the most headroom for larger suitcases within the stated weight allowance per base unit. Confirm finished internal dimensions before ordering.
