Bed frames with storage

Storage beds have drawers or a deck that lifts up, so the space under the mattress holds bedding, clothes or luggage. Good for small bedrooms and apartments.

Below: the frames independent reviewers actually tested and rated well for this, with what they found, videos and owner reports, then all 44 frames.

How we check: Listed when the seller lists drawers or a lift-up storage deck.

Storage beds independent testers rated well

Frames that reviewers who actually used them rated well for this. Ordered by how much independent evidence there is, not by commission. Mattress Clarity and Sleepopolis share a test team, so the same finding on both counts as one opinion.

Cloud Bed with Storage Sundays

Best with Storage · Apartment Therapy (syndicated on AOL)

How the storage works: A hydraulic, sprung slat base lifts to reach storage the full size of the bed; Sundays recommends mattresses up to 130 lbs for best lift performance.

  • Works well Apartment Therapy (syndicated on AOL): Tried in Sundays' NYC showroom: a staff member raised the hydraulic lift in about two seconds to show bed-sized storage under the slats. Lifting the whole bed means no side drawers to hit walls in narrow rooms. Only queen and king.

Owners on the storage: Owners on Sundays' page praise the amount of storage (a spare king comforter plus seasonal clothes). One said the hydraulics lifted a mattress 10 lbs over spec; another docked a star because the first lift is heavy. One reported a back cushion sagging. (source)

MALM Storage bed (lift-up) IKEA

How the storage works: The slatted base flips up on a gas piston and spring system, so the whole area under the mattress becomes storage without taking any extra floor space.

  • Works well Domino: The writer owns the full size: a pull on the strap at the foot raises the mattress to about 45 degrees. She roughly doubled her storage, fitting towels, bedding, books, winter coats and totes in bins. A TaskRabbit took about two hours to assemble it.

Owners on the storage: Most recent IKEA reviews praise the huge storage and a solid, quiet frame; some owners have had it 7 to 10 years. Complaints: the short fabric strap takes real hand strength to release the lock, one lift began grinding after two months, and one bed squeaked. Assembly reports range from 2 to 6 hours. (source)

Amalfi Storage Bed Saatva

Best Bed Frame with Storage · Sleepopolis

How the storage works: A hydraulic assist with safety locks lifts the whole solid platform from a handle at the foot, opening a storage cavity with a center divider (queen: two 27.3 x 81 x 7.7 in bays).

  • Works well Sleepopolis: Testers built it and used it with a mattress and two people: the hydraulic lift opened and closed smoothly, the storage underneath was deep, and the frame stayed silent when shared. Assembly took about an hour; no exact capacity given.

Owners on the storage: The four reviews on Saatva's page are all 5 stars; two mention storage, calling the space underneath immense or generous and praising the base platform that keeps stored items off the floor. Very small sample. (source)

Bed Frame with Storage Silk & Snow

Best Bed Frame with a Headboard · Mattress Clarity

  • Mixed Mattress Clarity: The storage is one deep pull-out drawer in the footboard with a fabric handle. The drawer didn't close smoothly and sometimes caught; the tester doubted it could hold much weight before it got too heavy to pull. The frame itself felt rock-solid.

What reviewers say to look for

  • Lift-up beds need headroom and space at the foot to open; drawer beds need side clearance so drawers don't hit nightstands, walls or dressers. (Sleepopolis)
  • Check whether drawers or the lift come included or cost extra, and look for a warranty that covers drawer tracks and hydraulic lifts. (Sleepopolis)
  • Hydraulic lifts are rated for a mattress weight: Sundays recommends mattresses up to 130 lbs and says heavier ones take more effort to lift. (Sundays (maker))
  • IKEA's drawer storage beds often ship without slats, which are bought separately; several owners only found out during assembly. (IKEA owner reviews)

What to know

Drawers need room beside the bed to pull out. Lift-up (ottoman) beds open from the top and work in tight rooms, but you lift the mattress each time.

What to check

  • Drawers or lift-up, and which sides they open from
  • Room needed beside the bed
  • Weight of your mattress if it lifts
  • Whether the storage is enclosed or open

    What we see when frames fail

    Questions

    Are storage beds worth it?

    In small rooms, yes: they replace a dresser or chest. Check that drawers have room to open and that a lift-up bed can handle your mattress’s weight.

    Do storage beds need a box spring?

    Most don’t: the deck or slats support the mattress directly. Each card says if a foundation is needed.
