This bed is the perfect height!  Not too tall, but perfect for storage underneath. I was looking at beds with drawers and for about 13 of the price, I ended up with exactly what I was looking for. Five milk crates fit perfectly across the bottom and with furniture pads on the bottom they slide in and out like a dream (no pun intended). It connected to my headboard (also from Wayfair - hermione upholstered) super easily and I swear my mattress is more comfortable on just the platform bed then it was on the box spring! I definitely recommend this simple solution for under bed storage!
