About the TheraPur® Shallow Divan Base

Last checked

A shallow divan like this is about keeping the bed visually lighter while still using the footprint for drawers, rather than turning the whole base into a low upholstered block. TheraPur's spec centres on custom upholstery - more than 20 colours across bouclé-style, velveteen, twill, linen-blend and animal-print finishes - with tapered legs in beech, walnut, silver or gold. That leg choice is the notable construction call: compared with a flush-to-floor divan, it gives up some sealed-off dust hiding but adds a small clearance under the base and makes the bed read more like a modern upholstered frame. The drawer options are the practical half of the design, with two, four and continental layouts aimed at different bedside-table arrangements, so storage can be kept away from where a cabinet would otherwise block a full drawer. Raised divan bases are a useful compromise. They do not give the uninterrupted cavity of an ottoman base, but they avoid the deeper, heavier lift mechanism and keep everyday storage accessible from the sides; for this construction class, the unusually broad fabric-and-leg menu is more generous than the hardware information.

The raised-leg divan construction is the detail that shapes who it suits. Praise repeatedly settles on the same things the spec promises: a tidy modern look, useful drawer space, a comfortable overall bed height once a mattress is on top, and enough under-base clearance for cleaning, including robot vacuums in some homes. The base comes across best in bedrooms that need storage without the bulk of an ottoman, especially where fabric choice matters and a divan has to look intentional rather than merely functional. Drawer quality is often described as better than expected. Noise is the recurring weakness, with movement in bed causing creaks or rubbing for some buyers, and finish control is not spotless; low-scoring feedback flags raised stitching, loose edging and even underside damage on replacement sections. The super king layout also needs caution, because a detailed complaint describes a visible front join, metal connector and extra feet, making the bed look more split than the neater product presentation suggests. A matching attachable headboard can sharpen the look, although a substantive complaint describes the headboard pushing a king mattress forward and leaving an overhang at the foot. It suits style-conscious storage shoppers who want a lighter divan with drawers and leg clearance; anyone wanting a seamless super king frontage, silent movement or one large hidden storage bay should be comparing ottoman divans or heavier-duty upholstered bedstead builds.

Highly customisable bed base with solid build and good aesthetics. The choice of fabric and leg styles gives it a personalised touch, plus the storage option comes in handy for keeping bedroom clutter-free. Comfortable and supports the mattress well.

We purchased a king size divan base and attachable headboard in store and, in summary, the store experience, the product, and the delivery process and all of the related pre delivery information have been excellent ... with just one niggle resulting in a less than 5 star review. This relates to the matching attachable headboard which also looks great and is excellent quality like the divan Ottoman base. That said, despite the delivery guys, who assembled everything, chocking the headboard as far from base as they could, the headboard still sits over the top of the base by about an inch. This results in the king sized mattress (that should fit perfectly) being pushed an inch down the base and hence results in the mattress overhanging the bottom of the divan base by just over an inch. It's not end of the world stuff but seems a pretty basic design flaw and, in our mind, results in the made up bed looking just that bit odd due to this small overhang.

Just as we saw it in the showroom. The colour is perfect and the drawers are spot on. The delivery men put it together and were very polite.

Well made, quality bed. Very sturdy and looks lovely. Drawers are better made than other divan beds Ive had. Nice, soft pink colour. Unusual to get a bit of space underneath a divan bed which is useful and the legs look classy. Delivery was quick and friendly.

This is a sturdy and good looking bed base. w We didn't want a draw divan so this met our requirements well, It is a good height and when the matress was placed on top it was a good height. There is a wide choice of material types and colours to choose from. Having had the base in use for a few weeks now we have not encountered any problems. It may be a little high in price for a bed base but I'm a believer in you get what you pay for and this seemed to be around the middle of the price range (some being a lot more expensive). Overall I'm happy with it.

Fab design: having legs allows your toes under the bed as you walk around the bed (we don't have much space), the drawers work well and having the smaller ones at the head end allows them to still work with our side units, overall construction seems good. Excellent!

I have bought a previous bed from Dreams and wouldnt hesitate to go back! The new king size bed and mattress and headboard was everything we hoped it would be…so comfortable. The staff are polite and very knowledgeable and no pressure selling. I would definitely recommend people to go there.
