Sleep Well For Less - Last Chance
A king size TV bed hides a flat screen TV inside the footboard and raises it by remote control when you want to watch, then lowers it out of sight when you're done. Our king size TV beds take a standard 150 x 200cm mattress and come in upholstered fabric designs, many with gas-assisted ottoman storage and a media shelf for your set-top box and cables. Each frame is built for a slim TV, typically between 40 and 43 inches depending on the design. At Land of Beds, we've been helping people across the UK choose the right bed for over 50 years, with free delivery on orders over £100 and expert advice included as standard.

King size TV beds are a bigger decision than most bed frames. You're choosing a bed, a TV stand and often a storage unit all at once, and each part has to suit your room and the TV you plan to use. The good news is that a few simple checks before you order make the difference between a bed that fits perfectly and one that doesn't. We've been helping customers get this right for over 50 years, and this guide covers what we'd tell you in person.
Three things decide whether a king size TV bed is right for you. Check these first and the rest comes down to style and colour.
| Factor | Why It Matters | What to Check |
|---|---|---|
| TV compatibility | The TV sits inside the footboard, so it must fit the lift's width, height and depth limits. Screen size alone isn't enough. | Maximum TV size and depth on the listing, your TV's measurements without its stand |
| Room space | TV beds are longer than standard king size frames because the footboard houses the lift. They also need floor space for the TV to rise and for any ottoman to open. | External frame dimensions, room length, clearance around the bed |
| Storage | Many designs combine a TV lift with an ottoman base, which can replace a chest of drawers or a TV unit. | Whether you need ottoman storage, lift direction and maximum mattress weight |

Every king size TV bed takes a standard UK king size mattress. The frame itself is larger, so measure your room against the external dimensions on the listing.
| Measurement | Typical Figure | What It Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Mattress size | 150 x 200cm (5ft x 6ft 6in) | Any standard UK king size mattress fits. Couples wanting more width and length than a double. Minimum room size 3.0 x 3.2m. |
| External frame width | Around 153 to 168cm across our current range | Allow space on both sides to get in and out of bed, plus room to open a side-opening ottoman. |
| External frame length | Around 229 to 237cm across our current range | Longer than a standard king size frame because of the TV footboard. Measure the full length of your room. |
| Footboard height | Around 81 to 90cm with the TV lowered | The TV rises above this when in use, so check nothing overhangs the foot end, such as a shelf or window sill. |
Exact dimensions vary by design, so always check the individual listing before you order. See our UK Bed Sizes Guide for room-by-room measuring advice.
All our king size TV beds have a remote-controlled TV lift in the footboard. Where they differ is the base underneath and how much storage it gives you.
| Type | Key Features | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Side-opening ottoman TV bed | Gas-assisted ottoman that lifts from the side, sprung wooden slats, media shelf for a set-top box | Rooms where the bed has clear floor space on one side and you want storage plus a TV in one piece of furniture |
| Ottoman TV bed with platform top | Gas-assisted ottoman with dual lift straps, upholstered platform top, base board inside, media shelf | Customers who want large, enclosed storage and a firm, even base for the mattress |
| Platform top TV bed | Upholstered platform base, deep padded headboard, available in a choice of fabric colours | Customers who put style and colour choice first, and already have storage elsewhere in the room |

A tip from our team: before you order, measure your room from the headboard wall to the opposite wall. TV beds are typically around 30cm longer than the mattress, and that extra length is easy to miss when you're used to a standard king size frame.
Combining a TV bed with ottoman storage frees up floor space that a TV unit and chest of drawers would otherwise take. Here's how the options compare.
| Storage Type | Pros | Things to Consider |
|---|---|---|
| Side-opening ottoman | Large storage space, gas-assisted lift, easy to reach from the side | Needs clear floor space on the opening side. The mattress lifts with the base. |
| Ottoman with platform top | Large enclosed storage with a base board, dual straps for easy lifting | Check the maximum mattress weight on the listing, as the gas lift is rated for a set weight. |
| Media shelf | Keeps your set-top box, games console and cables tidy and out of sight | Check the shelf position suits where your TV and power sockets will be. |
| No ottoman | Wider choice of colours and headboard styles | Storage options vary by design. Check the listing for what's available. |

Here's what goes into a king size TV bed, and what each part means for everyday use.
| Material | Performance and Maintenance | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Upholstered fabric frame | Soft, quiet and comfortable to lean against. Available in a choice of colours and textures on many designs, including velvet. Vacuum with a soft brush and spot clean marks. | Contemporary and cosy bedrooms |
| Remote-controlled TV lift | Raises and lowers a slim flat screen TV from inside the footboard at the press of a button. Keeps the TV hidden and protected when not in use. | Anyone who wants a TV in the bedroom without a TV unit or wall bracket |
| Sprung slats or platform top | Sprung wooden slats flex with your mattress and allow airflow. A platform top gives a firm, even surface. Both suit standard king size mattresses. | Slats for a slightly more responsive feel, platform for a firmer base |

| King Size TV Bed | Super King Size TV Bed | |

| Room size | Suits most main bedrooms | Best in larger main bedrooms |
| Price | Lower, on a like-for-like design | Higher, on a like-for-like design |

TV beds cost more than standard bed frames because they include a lift mechanism, and often an ottoman base too. Here's what to expect across our range.
| Budget | What You Get | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Under £1,250 | Remote-controlled TV lift, upholstered frame, and either ottoman storage or a choice of fabric colours. | Couples wanting a TV bed at a sensible price |
| £1,250 to £1,700 | Ottoman storage with a platform top and base board, media shelf, and a slightly larger TV capacity on some designs. | Main bedrooms where storage and a sturdy base are the priority |
A TV bed is used every day, both as a bed and a TV stand, so it's worth choosing the base that suits your mattress and how you'll use the storage.
Mike Murray, Land of Beds CEO: "Most people check the screen size of their TV and forget the depth. A TV bed is built for a slim TV, so measure the thickness of your set before you order. If you're not sure, give us the model and we'll check it against the footboard for you."

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Do king size TV beds come with a TV? | No. The price covers the bed frame with the TV lift built into the footboard. You'll need to buy a compatible slim flat screen TV separately, and a mattress too. |
| What size TV fits a king size TV bed? | Most of our king size TV beds take a TV of between 40 and 43 inches, depending on the design. Screen size isn't the only limit, as the TV also has to fit the lift's maximum height and depth. Check the listing for the exact limits and measure your TV without its stand. |
| How big is a king size TV bed? | The mattress is a standard UK king size, 150 x 200cm. The frame is larger because of the upholstered headboard and the TV footboard, typically around 153 to 168cm wide and 229 to 237cm long across our current range. Always check the listing for the exact external dimensions. |
| Can I get a king size TV bed with storage? | Yes. Many of our king size TV beds have a gas-assisted ottoman base, and some include a media shelf for your set-top box and cables. Check the lift direction and the maximum mattress weight on the listing before you order. |
| Do king size TV beds come with a mattress? | No, the mattress is sold separately. Some listings offer an optional mattress, shown on the product page. Any standard UK king size mattress will fit, but if you choose an ottoman design, check the maximum mattress weight first. |
| How does the TV lift work? | The TV sits on a lift inside the footboard. At the press of a button on the remote control, it rises up for viewing and lowers back down out of sight when you've finished. The lift plugs into a standard mains socket, so plan for one within reach of the foot end of the bed. |
| Does a TV bed need an aerial? | Not necessarily. It depends on your TV and how you watch. Many modern TVs stream over Wi-Fi, so an aerial isn't always needed. If you do use an aerial or satellite, plan your cable route before you set the bed up. |
| Should I choose a king or super king size TV bed? | A king size suits most main bedrooms and gives couples comfortable space without the bed dominating the room. A super king is 30cm wider and better in larger rooms. Check the listing for the TV size each bed takes. |
| Do king size TV beds need assembling? | Yes. They arrive flat packed with full instructions and fixings, and assembly typically takes around 45 minutes with two people. We don't currently offer an assembly service on TV beds. |
| Do you offer free delivery on king size TV beds? | Yes. We offer free delivery to most mainland UK postcodes on orders over £100, with a charge for some outlying areas. Delivery to your room of choice is available for a small fee. Lead times vary by design, so check the individual listing. |
| Can I order a fabric sample? | Yes. Fabric samples are available on many designs. Contact our team on 01928 242829 or via live chat and we'll arrange them for you. |
| Can I buy a king size TV bed on finance? | Yes. Finance options are available on eligible orders, including some interest-free terms. See our finance page for eligibility criteria and how to apply. |
