Discount platform beds with storage serve as a dresser and bed frame--saving money on extra furniture and conserving space in a small room.
Why waste that space under your bed? For a sleek storage option in the bedroom, choose a platform bed that offers drawer space as well as a place to sleep.
Inexpensive platform storage beds are available from the following online retail sites. All but IKEA will ship to your home, and some of these stores offer inexpensive or free shipping on furniture.

Numerous retailers offer the Full or Double Platform Storage Bed online, but Overstock.com sells it at one of the lowest prices available: $399.99 (Shipping is $2.95). A sleek modern design (see photo below) marries function to form in this platform bed with six 19-inch-deep drawers. Made of composite wood and medium-density fiberboard, the bed features slats that run lengthwise to distribute body weight evenly.
