Is a King size TV bed the sweet spot — extra stretch, cinema on cue, clutter under control
A King (5ft) TV bed hides the screen in the footboard and raises it with a smooth remote. Bigger lounging, better proportions, same tidy look when the screen glides away. Built in Yorkshire with neat upholstery and lift hardware that behaves.
What TV size and devices should I plan for — and where do they live
Screen fit
Check each product page for the exact maximum screen size, thickness, and weight. Slim modern TVs with tidy bezels look best and lift cleanly.
Ports & add-ons
Streaming sticks and compact consoles are perfect. Use short HDMI and mains leads with a bit of slack so the lift never tugs a tight wire.
Mount & control
A VESA mount inside the footboard holds your TV. The lift has its own remote; once raised, your TV remote works as normal — simple and calm.
Sound choices
TV speakers, compact soundbar, or wireless speakers — your call. Keep cable routes neat with gentle loops and labelled leads.
Do I want storage as well as the screen — ottoman or drawers
TV beds with storage
Go ottoman for maximum capacity or drawers for grab-and-go access. Calm top to bottom.
No storage (compare)
Prefer a lighter look or wardrobes already nailed. A clean framed TV bed keeps the under-bed open.
How do I measure a King room so it feels designed — not squeezed
Walkways & foot space
Leave easy walk space at the foot so the screen rises without arguing with doors, radiators, or benches. No shuffle-walks, thanks.
Sockets & cable runs
Plan power for the lift and the TV. Head-end sockets are neat; otherwise route safely along a side rail with discreet slack.
Delivery path
Measure doors and stair turns. The sections are sensible, but a quick tape measure now avoids drama later. See delivery & returns.
Which headboard styles look ace at King size
Wingback calm
Soft curves that frame pillows and tame busy rooms. Hotel-calm in velvet or chenille.
Chesterfield classic
Deep button detail — rich, tailored, screen hides like a pro.
Sleigh smooth
Flowing profile with gentle drama. Modern but warm.
High headboard drama
Tall focal wall — layered pillows, instant boutique vibe.
Which mattress pairs best — and will it fit
Pocket sprung
Airflow + lively support — runs cooler, great for combo sleepers.
Memory foam
Contour + quiet motion — partners won’t feel late-night scrolls.
Pillow top
Plush, hotel-soft surface with steady support beneath.
Orthopaedic
Firm, focused alignment — back sleepers’ favourite.

FAQs
Does the TV come included
No — pick the screen you love. Check each model’s spec for maximum size, thickness, and weight.
Will a King overwhelm my room
Kings balance most master bedrooms nicely. Leave clear foot space and the layout feels designed — even with the screen up.
Can I add storage
Yes — see TV beds with storage for ottoman or drawer options at King size.
Console or streaming stick — any issues
Compact devices work best. Use short HDMI leads with slack and route cables tidy so the lift never snags.
Will my mattress fit
Yes — our King follows UK standards. Pair with pocket sprung, memory foam, pillow top, or orthopaedic.
Does the screen wobble when someone turns over
No — the lift is isolated in the footboard. Keep cables loose and the picture stays steady while you get comfy.
What happens in a power cut
The TV stays safe in its last position. When power returns, lower or raise as normal with the remote.
Is assembly difficult
No. Sections are sensible and the guide is clear. Most builds take thirty to forty minutes — see assembly instructions.
