As a former resident of a New York City studio apartment, I know the challenge of having minimal storage space all too well. (Trust me – at one point my search history was basically just small-space furniture searches.) Even now, as the renter of an actual house (progress!), I still find myself eyeing storage beds and debating making the switch. After all, there are so many great options on the market, from fast-shipping Amazon finds under $500 to bestsellers from buzzy furniture brands like Article, Castlery, and Thuma.
In my quest to find the best storage beds for both you and me, I spent hours researching. I dove deep into Reddit threads, social media posts, and reviews to curate this guide to the best storage beds at a range of price points, starting at $174, along with styles from plenty of retailers. I made sure to cover different storage preferences, too, whether you’re into pull-out drawers, a lift-up mechanism, or something even more unconventional, like a headboard with built-in shelves. You’re covered on the texture front, too; I found bouclé, linen, velvet, and more options I think you’ll love. Check them all out ahead.
