A cloud bed is an upholstered bed frame padded so deeply that it looks soft and pillowy all over, usually covered in teddy or bouclé fabric. The name comes from that rounded, plump look rather than any particular mechanism. Ours, the Cloud Teddy Bouclé bed, also has an ottoman storage base.

What makes a bed a cloud bed?

Two things: generous padding and a textured fabric. A standard upholstered bed has a padded headboard and a covered frame. A cloud bed carries the padding through so the whole piece reads as one soft shape. Bouclé or teddy fabric finishes the look, because its loops catch light as texture and make the bed look warm and matte instead of shiny.

What is teddy bouclé?

A looped, deep-pile fabric with a texture a bit like a sheepskin coat. It's warm to touch and hides small marks well. The trade-off is that the loops can snag, so vacuum it with a soft brush head and keep pets with sharp claws off it. Our velvet vs bouclé guide compares the two fabrics side by side.

Our cloud bed

The Cloud Teddy Bouclé Ottoman Bed is wrapped in teddy bouclé and built on a hydraulic lift ottoman base. Lift the mattress platform and the whole area under the bed is storage, with no drawers to pull out. It comes in every UK size from single to super king, from £299.99.

If you like the soft look but have pets, try a velvet bed with a rounded profile instead, such as the Mayfair Bumper or the Luxury Fluted Velvet bed.

Frequently asked questions

Is a cloud bed comfortable?

The frame is padded all over, so it's comfortable to sit against and has no hard edges. How it feels to sleep on depends on the mattress you put on it.

Is a cloud bed the same as a bouclé bed?

Often, but not always. Cloud describes the soft, padded look. Bouclé is the looped fabric most cloud beds are covered in.

Can you get a cloud bed with storage?

Ours, yes. The Cloud Teddy Bouclé bed sits on a hydraulic lift ottoman base, so the whole space under the mattress is storage.

Are bouclé beds good with pets?

Not ideal. Claws can catch in the loops. In a home with cats or dogs, a plush velvet bed is the safer choice.

What sizes does a cloud bed come in?

Our Cloud Teddy Bouclé bed comes in single, small double, double, king and super king, from £299.99.
