I have just moved and needed 3 King size beds and 1 double with lots of storage so an Ottoman bed fits the bill.  These beds were reasonably priced but the double came with a small tear on the back of the head board and another one on the side.  I am hoping they do not get bigger as I need them for August Bank Holiday weekend and therefore couldn't send it back.  The gas lift left a lot to be desired because it could not cope with the heavy quality mattress I bought See my review of Tilbury 3000 pocket sprung mattress.  The space underneath is big but not high, so only 18mm high plastic storage boxes would work here.  The brown colour is very dark and looks like black really.  The delivery was organised and quick and very good guys who delivered all the beds.
