We're downsizing and I'm looking for items to increase storage. I'm looking for a quality platform bed with built in storage (drawers, I guess?).
Any suggestions?
No suggestion for the bed frame but you are on the right track looking for storage. When we toured the retirement community we will eventually move to, an older couple there were gracious enough to show us around their apartment. The husband, an older gentlemen around 85, retired businessman who still wore his shirt and tie everyday, said, "Go home and start packing now! Look at all of your furniture and if something has a drawer, bring it! If it doesn't have a drawer, leave it. You'll need storage!"
Most platform beds with storage have a modern look... if that doesn't bother you, then West Elm has a decent bed. When our local West Elm store was closing, I bought one for my teenager at a 40% discount.
This is a Pottery Barn affiliated company and definitely not fine furniture, but it worked well for us..
