Yes. It's real oak veneer on a stable core, so you get genuine oak grain and colour with far less timber. All our wood is FSC-certified.
Oak warms slightly with light over the years, taking on a soft honey tone. It's sealed with a durable finish, so it stays easy to wipe clean.
Oak is lighter and brighter, and suits pale, airy rooms. Walnut is darker and richer, and suits deeper colour schemes. Come and see both side by side in our Swiss Cottage and Chelsea showrooms.
Max Wood: 35cm of storage as standard, or 40cm with Max+. Air Wood has 33cm and sits on slim legs.

Yes. Oak costs £200 less than walnut in every size. Everything else about the bed is the same.
Dust with a soft, dry cloth. Wipe up spills with a damp cloth and dry straight away. Avoid harsh cleaners and silicone polishes, and keep the bed out of strong direct sunlight to slow its natural warming to honey tones.
Very easy. We match the gas struts to your mattress weight: 900N for around 30kg, 1,150N for around 50kg and 1,350N for 65kg and above. The base opens easily and closes gently.
Yes, on both Air Wood and Max Wood. It opens the base at the touch of a button, and it's ideal for super king and emperor sizes or heavier mattresses.
Yes. Choose end or side opening when you order. Side opening is useful if the foot of the bed is close to a wall or other furniture.

Oak is light, bright and calming, with a soft natural grain that brings warmth to a bedroom without weighing it down. It suits pale, airy rooms and sits well with almost any colour scheme. Lift the base and there's room for bedding, suitcases and everything else you'd rather not see, so the room stays calm and clear.

Both beds are made in Nottingham in real oak, with the same frame, slats and lift. The difference is how they sit in the room and how much they hold.

Each bed is real oak veneer bonded to a stable core. You see and touch genuine oak grain, the panels stay flat and true through the seasons, and each bed uses a fraction of the timber a solid oak frame would. All our wood is FSC-certified, and Furl is a certified B Corp.
Because it's real wood, no two beds are identical. The grain, figure and colour vary from panel to panel, which is exactly what makes oak worth having.
They're the same thing. Whether you call it an oak storage bed, an oak bed with storage or an oak ottoman bed, it's a bed whose base lifts up so the whole space underneath becomes storage. We call ours ottoman beds.
We measure storage depth as usable space: from the floor of the base to the top of the slats. The whole area under the mattress opens in one go, with no drawers to pull out and no gap to leave around the bed. At 40cm, a cabin suitcase lies flat inside with room to spare. That makes an ottoman bed ideal for smaller bedrooms, where floor space matters more than anything.
The base lifts on gas struts matched to the weight of your mattress, so it opens easily and closes gently. Choose opening from the end or the side, depending on where the bed sits in the room. For larger sizes or heavier mattresses, an electric lift opens the base at the touch of a button.
Match the frame with an oak headboard for a clean, Scandinavian look, or choose any of our fabric headboards. A fabric headboard on an oak base is one of the most popular ways customers order: soft upholstery against pale grain looks fresh and inviting, and it's comfortable to lean on when you're reading in bed. You can also leave the headboard off entirely and fix the bed against a panelled or painted wall.
Oak works beautifully with soft whites, stone, sage green and pale blue. Pair it with white or oatmeal linen bedding, simple ceramic lamps and a natural jute or wool rug for a light, restful room. In a small bedroom, oak keeps everything feeling open and airy.
Every bed has a 2cm-thick frame, so it takes up barely more floor space than the mattress itself. Orthopaedic slats support the mattress properly, and any standard mattress fits. These are beds designed to be slept on and opened every day, for years.
Oak ottoman beds come in every size from single to emperor, including European sizes.
External dimensions, width x length.
Our own team delivers your bed in sections, carries it up, and assembles it in your bedroom. Delivery and installation are included in the price*. Narrow stairs and tight landings are rarely a problem, because nothing arrives in one piece.
See oak in person
Wood always looks different in real life. Come and see both oak ottoman beds side by side at our Swiss Cottage and Chelsea showrooms, open seven days a week. You don't need an appointment, although you can book one if you want. Or try one at home for 60 days.
