Love this bed!  I like the classic look of platform styles, and there is plenty of room underneath for storage.  Just a note:  if you have carpet, the measurement from the side panel to the floor ends up being about .5" less than in the description (or maybe it's just less and they rounded up), but the mattress sit on top instead of down into the panels so that under the mattress is about a foot. You can store larger items, but not if you need constant access to it.  The low slide under bed bins seem to work just fine.   The material is sturdy and it looks great!
