The Best Bedroom Benches That Combine Seating With Storage
This is where to put everything you've been stashing under the bed.
Not all of your bedroom storage has to be stashed away in your closet or under the bed. When you have a bedroom bench situated at the foot of your mattress, you automatically have a convenient spot to hide away the extras, along with a place to perch when sliding on your shoes in the morning.
Whether or not you'd consider your home to be “small-space,” we think everybody can benefit from a little 2-in-1 convenience. Read on to check out these eight great bedroom bench options.

What to Consider
Dimensions:
Naturally, you'll want to measure your bedroom bench before you buy. Because these pieces are typically placed at the foot of your bed, make sure that it's a comfortable height and width so that it feels like a seamless extension — bedroom benches shouldn't be longer or taller than your mattress.
Another measurement to consider is the depth of the storage space inside. This can give you an indication of what you'll be able to store here. Deeper chests can hold blankets, extra sheets, and bed pillows, while more shallow interiors may be better for clothing or accessories.
Material:
The sky's the limit when it comes to bedroom bench material choices — velvet, polyester, and faux leather are all popular choices. You may want to consider how easy a certain material is to clean (if you allow pets into your bedroom) and how well it coordinates with your color scheme before you buy.
Stylistic versatility:
While bedroom benches are smart storage accessories for your sleep space, you can certainly mix it up from time to time if you want!
Many bedroom benches also double as entryway perches, giving you a convenient place to sit or stash your out-the-door accessories when you're in a rush. Certain styles of bedroom benches can also double as coffee tables or living room storage ottomans with the addition of a simple tray. If you like rearranging your home on a seasonal or yearly basis, this is a good thing to keep in mind.
