They are meticulously engineered from solid British wood, delivering an impressively robust structure. We shun the use of glue, preserving the innate strength and integrity of the wood.
One distinguishing feature is our refined piped finish, a decorative trim that not only enhances aesthetics but fortifies the seams for increased durability. This attention to detail results in a luxury product with a flawlessly elegant finish.
The underside of our divan doesn’t escape our exacting standards, being upholstered in natural hessian for a consistently high-end finish throughout the piece. This attests to our commitment to excellence in each and every detail.
The interiors of our bases are filled with top-tier, hand-nested pocket springs and natural fillings, ensuring unparalleled comfort and support. This combination of premium materials and superior craftsmanship yields a product of utmost luxury and remarkable durability.
Such unparalleled quality enables us to confidently offer a remarkable 30-year guarantee on our shallow divan bases, a testament to their enduring longevity. This stands in stark contrast to our competitors, who typically only provide a 2-year guarantee. This extensive warranty underlines our commitment to delivering products that are built to last, offering our customers enduring value.
Our high divan bases set the standard for quality and durability in the industry, surpassing our competitors in craftsmanship, materials, and longevity. They are meticulously crafted using solid British wood, ensuring a robust and sturdy structure. Unlike many competitors, we do not use glue in our process, maintaining the natural integrity and strength of the wood.
Our shallow divan base, filled with pocket springs, coir, and British fleece wool and cotton, remarkably amplifies the comfort and overall feel of your mattress, particularly a Winstons mattress. Upon lying on this base, you’ll instantly discern the heightened support, meticulously tailored to your body’s shape.
Each pocket spring within the base individually reacts to your weight and movement, offering a customisable and responsive support mechanism that harmonises flawlessly with your mattress. This results in a well-distributed support across your body, mitigating pressure points and boosting comfort.
The amalgamation of coir, British fleece wool, and cotton enhances the luxuriousness of the feel. The coir introduces an element of firmness, thus ensuring a stable and supportive base. Concurrently, the British fleece wool and cotton impart a layer of softness and breathability, assisting in temperature regulation and fostering a cool and inviting sleep environment.
As our esteemed customer, you’ll savour an unparalleled fusion of comfort, support, and luxury. The shallow divan base not only complements but accentuates the feel of your Winstons mattress, affording you an elevated sleep experience that is both soothing and invigorating.
A natural sprung divan base serves as an exemplary choice for individuals who prioritize comfort, support, and eco-friendliness. The integration of pocket springs, coir, and British fleece wool and cotton offers an unparalleled blend of firmness and plushness, catering to a broad spectrum of sleepers. Not only do these materials deliver outstanding support and comfort, but they are also sustainable, making this divan base an optimal choice for those who are environmentally conscious.
Comfort Enthusiasts: The pocket springs contour to the body, reducing pressure points and enhancing comfort.

Winstons is hands down one of the best companies I have had the pleasure of providing my custom to. Their products are fantastic quality and their customer service is second to none, Reese was so helpful and answered every single one of my questions throughly. My bed and mattress arrived at the same time and both I am very happy with. I look forward to purchasing further products with you and recommending you to family and friends.

My beautiful bed was delivered last week and I am very happy with it. It finishes off my bedroom perfectly. The quality is evident by the way it looks and how heavy it is. You really do get what you pay for.
For reference I ordered the shallow divan with the Aspen headboard in the colour Plush Bone.
