What is an ottoman TV bed?
An ottoman bed has an upholstered frame, a built-in TV compartment in the footboard, and a gas-lift storage base under the mattress. It combines the features of both a pure TV bed and an ottoman bed. You can shop for storage beds with TV for small rooms where you need sophistication without sacrificing space. It consists of the following components.
- An upholstered frame and headboard
- Storage cavity under the mattress
- An electric lift mechanism for revealing and hiding the screen
- A hidden footboard compartment that holds a TV
- Gas-lift pistons to access the ottoman storage
How does a TV ottoman bed work?
Our ottoman beds operate on two mechanisms: a gas-lift mechanism for opening the storage compartment and an motorised lift mechanism to lift the screen up into a viewing position. Both systems function independently from one another.
If you want to get access to storage, then simply press the fabric handle that is present at the side or the foot of the bed mattress. The storage cavity will open with gas-lift technology as the mattress is rested on the gas-assisted pistons. When you pull on the handle, the pressure on the gas sturts/pistons will allow the mattress frame to open either at the side or from the foot base.
To set the TV screens into a viewing position, you need to press the button on the remote. On pressing, the electric lift system push up the screen smoothly. When you end up watching TV, it will go hidden with a touch of a button.

Ottoman storage or a TV bed with drawers?
If you are confused about choosing between two options, a TV bed with ottoman storage and a TV bed with drawers depends on how much storage capacity you need and how often you want to access stored items. Both beds are practical and elegant solutions; however, look at the following features for a clear idea.
An ottoman bed with a TV frame has an entire bed base for storage, while drawers are easy to pull out, making it best for daily convenience and more storage capacity. Whereas the drawer TV bed has two or four compartments underneath the bed mattress, offering easy opening and quick access to stored objects. However, these drawers can hold small, regularly used items and are best for daily convenience.
To open the base lift in ottoman storage TV beds, you need to free up the mattress and press the bed frame to open the lid covering the under-bed storage. In TV beds with drawers, you can pull or push the drawers with your hands. But it needs side clearance to fully open the drawers.

FAQs
Does an ottoman TV bed use side lift or end lift?
An ottoman TV bed uses mostly a side lift. The mattress frame is hinged on one long side, and you can open it from the opposite side to access the bottom storage cavity.
How reliable is the ottoman lift mechanism?
The ottoman lift mechanism is reliable. It is made of premium-quality materials (steel, metal & iron), making it best for lifting the weight of a mattress, and regular & frequent opening and closing of the base lift. Because of its sturdiness, it can perform well for about a decade or more.
Will my current mattress work with a TV ottoman bed?
If your mattress is memory foam and its size matches your bed frame dimensions according to single, double, king, or super king size, it will work well with TV ottoman bed. Heavy or overly thick mattress will create problem while opening the lift mechanism.
Is the base heavier to lift when the storage is full?
Yes, the base is heavier to lift when the storage is full. The items stored inside the storage put extra pressure on the hydraulic pistons that is the reason when you try to open, it slows down. While buying the bed, consider the compatibility of the lift mechanism with the mattress and frame.
Are there two separate mechanisms?
Yes, there are two separate lift mechanisms present on each side of the bed frame under the mattress. They are used to distribute the even pressure of the mattress on the hydraulic pistons and hinges, making the opening and closing of the base lift smooth & silent.
