Twin Bed with 2 Storage Drawers, Panelled Headboard and Enclosed Base, Grey

The listing calls these drawers spacious. They measure 17 by 13 inches inside at 5 inches deep, which is about the size of a shoebox and a half.

The real figures are published on this page so you can plan around them. Use the drawers for socks, underwear and a spare set of sheets, and keep bulky bedding somewhere else, because the enclosed base leaves no room under the bed.

Read the drawer size

Seventeen by thirteen inches inside and five deep, twice. That is enough for socks, underwear, folded t-shirts and a set of sheets, and not enough for jumpers or bedding in bulk. The frame itself is 79.5 inches long and stands 15.5 inches high, over a deck of 76 by 39 inches.

Eight inches of mattress

The slat deck sits inside a raised rail. That is what stops the mattress travelling, and it is also why the mattress is capped at eight inches: a thicker one would stand above the rail and lose the benefit entirely.

A closed base, not legs

There are no legs and no gap under this bed. The base panels run to the floor, which makes the frame stiffer and means nothing collects underneath, but it also means the two drawers are the only storage the bed offers. There is nowhere to slide a box or a suitcase.

Metal slides, round knobs

The drawers run on metal slides rather than wooden runners, so a loaded drawer still pulls straight. Both open from the same long side, so leave clear floor on that side when you decide which way round the bed goes. The knobs are round and sit close to the drawer face.

The published maximum for the embedded deck.

17 by 13 by 5 inches inside each.

No legs and no gap underneath.

In an embedded, no sliding platform.

A closed base means nothing gathers under the bed, which is the quiet argument for this design.

Seventeen by thirteen by five inches suits socks, sheets and folded shirts.

Eight inches or less is the published limit, and it is what keeps the rail doing its job.

What we stand behind

• The 79.5 inch frame length, the 41 inch headboard width, the 40.5 inch headboard height, the 76 by 39 inch deck, the 15.5 inch frame height, the drawer inner size, the eight slats, the 8 inch mattress maximum and the 350 lb capacity are the manufacturer's published figures.
