Divan Base Construction
A divan bed base is built to be durable and designed. The foundation starts with a solid wooden or metal frame, to support the weight of the mattress and sleepers. This solid frame is then upholstered in high quality fabric, to add a touch of style to your bedroom. The platform top of the divan base is designed to spread the weight evenly, to provide a firm and supportive surface for your mattress. This thoughtful construction will extend the life of your mattress and give you a comfortable sleep. Buying a divan bed base means you’re buying a bed that’s built to last, functionality and style.
