Is a Super King TV bed worth the space — and how do you plan it right
A Super King (6ft) TV bed hides a big screen in the footboard and raises it with a smooth remote. Suite energy, hotel calm, zero clutter when the screen glides away. We build in Yorkshire — neat upholstery, solid frames, lift hardware that behaves.
What TV size and devices should I plan for — and where do they live
Screen fit
Check the product page for each model’s max screen size, thickness, and weight. Slim bezels + shallow depth = cleaner lift and neater hide.
Mount & control
VESA mount inside the footboard. Lift on its own remote. Once raised, your TV remote works as normal — simple and calm.
Ports & devices
Streaming sticks and compact consoles play nicely. Use short HDMI + mains leads with a little slack so nothing tugs when the lift moves.
Sound options
TV speakers, compact soundbar, or wireless audio. Keep loops gentle and label leads for future you — tidy now, painless later.
How to measure a large room so it flows — not just fits
Foot clearance & sightlines
Leave real walk space at the foot so the screen rises cleanly. Check doors, radiators, benches, and window seats — no shuffle-walks.
Bedside tables & lamps
Give side tables breathing room. Tall headboards frame lamps beautifully — measure shade width vs pillow stack height for symmetry wins.
Sockets & cable runs
You need power for lift + TV. Head-end sockets are neat; otherwise route along a side rail with discreet slack and proper clips.
Delivery path
Measure doors and stair turns. Sections are sensible, but a quick tape now avoids drama later. See delivery & returns.
Do I want storage as well as the screen — ottoman or drawers
TV beds with storage
Ottoman for maximum capacity — drawers for quick daily access. Big bed, tidy life. Yes please.
No storage (compare)
Prefer a lighter look or have wardrobes nailed. A clean framed TV bed keeps the under-bed open.
Which headboard styles look incredible at Super King
Wingback calm
Soft curves, cosy edges — tames big walls and frames pillows like a dream.
Chesterfield classic
Deep button detail and tailored lines. The screen disappears into smart upholstery.
Sleigh smooth
Flowing profile with gentle drama — modern, warm, very loungeable.
High headboard drama
Tall focal wall energy. Layer cushions, dim lights, instant boutique.
Which mattress pairs best — and will it fit
Pocket sprung
Airflow + lively support — cooler feel, 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 so it fits perfectly.
Will a Super King overwhelm my room
In a master suite — it sings. Leave proper foot space and clear sightlines and the layout feels designed, not crowded.
Can I add storage
Yes — see TV beds with storage for ottoman or drawer options at Super King size.
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.
Console or soundbar — any issues
Compact devices work best. Use short HDMI leads with slack and route cables tidy so the lift never snags.
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 — no drama.
Is assembly difficult
No. Sections are sensible and the guide is clear. Most builds take thirty to forty minutes — see assembly instructions.
Will my mattress fit
Yes — our Super King follows UK standards. Pair with pocket sprung, memory foam, pillow top, or orthopaedic.
