Good Questions: Bed With Storage Underneath?

10-29-flou.jpgAT,

Searching for one of those beds, where the mattress lifts up on two arms (like those used to lift a car hatchback), to reveal a storage compartment below the mattress that's the size of the bed. It seems a great way to store off-season clothing and bedding. I've seen this style of "lift" bed but I don't seem to be searching for the correct terms...

Any tips, including DIY, or resources (retail or wholesale)?

(and no, I don't just want to use plastic storage containers under my bed, tried that and want to try this other style of bed instead)

Thanks!

Rucy

Rucy,

We think you mean this bed from Flou. Check out AT:NY's post here: Good Question: Where Can I Find a Platform Bed That Lifts for Storage?

Anyone have other suggestions?

I love that Flou bed, but it's way out of my price range. The closest thing I could find that's similar is the Bossa bed by EQ3. It didn't look as good in person unfortunately.

I found mine on overstock.com. It's a brown leather upholstered bed.
