Choosing the right Harrison Spinks divan base
When choosing a new bed, it's natural to concentrate on the mattress, but the divan underneath it also plays an important part in how the finished bed feels.
Harrison Spinks offers different divan constructions designed to work with its mattresses. At Vale Furnishers, we've sold Harrison Spinks for over 20 years, so we can help you understand the differences and decide which combination works best for you.
Your divan base can change how the bed feels
A divan isn't simply something for the mattress to sit on.
Its construction can influence the overall feel of the bed, which is why we'll always consider the mattress and base together. When you're trying Harrison Spinks mattresses in our showroom, it's worth knowing which base is underneath them and how an alternative could change the feel.
Three Harrison Spinks divan bases give you different levels of support
Harrison Spinks offers three principal divan constructions: Padded Top, True Edge and Premium True Edge.
The Padded Top provides a firmer, supportive platform beneath the mattress.
The True Edge introduces springs into the divan, allowing the base to respond with the mattress and creating a more forgiving overall feel.
The Premium True Edge takes this further with a more sophisticated sprung construction for customers looking for the highest level of comfort from their Harrison Spinks divan.
There isn't one base that's automatically better than another. The important thing is deciding whether you can feel and value the difference it makes with your chosen mattress.
Try the mattress and base together
This is one of those choices that's much easier to understand in the showroom than from a specification.
We have seven Harrison Spinks mattresses on display at our Ash Vale showroom, with different divan options represented within the collection. We'll explain what you're lying on and, where possible, help you compare different combinations.
Add storage if you need it
Harrison Spinks divans can also be configured with drawers or ottoman storage.
There are several different arrangements available, and the best option depends on your room and how you intend to use the storage. We explain these choices in detail in our Harrison Spinks Storage Beds section.
Complete your Harrison Spinks bed
Once you've chosen your mattress and divan, you can select from Harrison Spinks' upholstery fabrics and headboards to complete the bed.
With different mattresses, tensions, bases, fabrics and headboards available, there are plenty of possible combinations. We'll take you through them in a sensible order — starting with the mattress and then choosing the options that genuinely make a difference to you.
