We need a divan to save space and which is preferably sprung

We have slept on these in Germany where they seem quite common. We can’t sleep sharing a double. We probably need a divan to save space (preferably sprung although does that cut down storage options?). We want good quality (we were long time customers of the late lamented Warren Evans!).

Hi Sarah Carruthers

Thanks for your question, we can definitely help.

Our zip and link bases in the Artisan range, are available with two different types of spring units. Sprung edge bases use a frame within the base which springs are then placed into it’s accepted as the best quality of divan base. These springs can either be a bonnell coil, ie continuous spring or a set of pocket springs. The pocket springs are more responsive but are at a higher price point. Whilst we never advocate the use of cage sprung or open coil springs, the exception to this is a sprung base. This is because the base has a solid frame which prevents the bonnell coil or open coil from moving around as much as it does in a mattress. The spring unit will not compromise the drawer options for you and you have the full selection of drawer available to you still.

Artisan Divan Bases
1000 Pocket Springs 1.6 Gauge (Kingsize)
600GSM Cotton Wool rebound upholstery on top of the base
Fully upholstered in a range of fabric choices / colours
Black cotton backing on the underside
Solid wood frames. FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) approved.
Drawers if chosen are 32″ wide, 20″ deep and 9″ high
Fixings for both Shepherd castors and headboard bolts

Pocket sprung edge bases are the highest quality bases you can buy in both their construction, components and overall feel. The pocket springs give the same benefits found in high-end mattresses by giving independent support. These pocket springs are then padded and upholstered to create a luxury base. Some people love the feel of a sprung edge base, and all of our Artisan ranges are paired up with sprung edge bases, where a base is required.
