It’s chic, elevated, and incredibly well-made—the perfect trifecta! The addition of the drawer under the mattress is also just *chef’s kiss*.

My review: “I love that leather is one of those materials that age well and always stand the test of time. Obvi, this is a bit of a splurge, but I think that it’s a worthy investment if you want a piece that can last you for years to come.”

Velvet is a go-to material when it comes to upholstered beds. This option from Mr. Kate offers a nice and luxurious feel without being too expensive. Plus, this bed can work in almost any space thanks to its simple tufting style.

Glowing customer review: "LOVE. I can’t stop staring at it, and I’m so glad I waited until it was back in stock. It looks super high-end and expensive at such an affordable price. Also, the assembly was surprisingly easy for me. I’ve assembled a lot of furniture before, and this was definitely one of the smoothest. Go buy it!"

Upholstered Bed Frame

If space is limited, it might be easier to look for an option without a headboard. This one from Casper is wrapped in a soft woven fabric and comes in three different colors. Plus, thanks to its built-in slatted base, there's no squeaking or shaking as you move through the night.

Glowing customer review: "Very easy to assemble! Because I live in a studio, I wanted a stylish yet understated bed frame since it'll be the largest thing in the room. Ticks all the boxes and overall, I have been pleased."

Luna Set: Cushioned Upholstered Bed Frame and Headboard

You've probs seen this cozy bed on your newsfeed before. Custom made by SoftFrameDesign, this option can be outfitted in seven different color options, including denim. Plus, if you're not a fan of the headboard or want a different base style, you can customize that too.

Glowing customer review: "Item came earlier than expected! Great service and fast communication, would highly recommend. The bed frame is so comfortable and cute! Very satisfied with my purchase."

Camilla Side Storage Bed

Um, yes, you absolutely can find an upholstered bed with storage, and this one from West Elm has lots of it. It comes with two drawers on either side and can be upholstered in over 20 (!) different fabric swatches.

Glowing customer review: "This is one of the coolest storage beds I've seen. I'm not too fond of drawers under the bed because you can't use the drawer closest to the headboard if you have a nightstand. This bed fixes that problem by having a space between the headboard and the first drawer so you can open it without knocking it into your bedside table."

Lexi Tufted Bed

With its vertical tufted design, this bed is a modern take on the classic tufted upholstered bed. It comes in two other calming colors and has beautiful walnut-stained legs with brass caps for a subtle mid-century modern touch.

Glowing customer review: "It looks just like it does in the pictures. Simple and elegant. Most importantly, I bought it right away because of how comfortable it was to lean and rest on the bed's headboard. This is the bed to go for if you want something simple, elegant, and comfortable! Overall the experience has been pleasant!"

Platform Metal Bed

Want something stylish and sleek? Well, check and check. This lovely platform bed has a unique curved look that pops, and it'll surely pull your room's entire look together perfectly. We love a centerpiece that you sleep on!

Glowing customer review: "This product is absolutely amazing!... Not only does the style look like what I expected and hoped, this does not shake and not flimsy. It is super easy to put together. It did take a little time, but my two 12-year-olds put this together for me! I can not brag on this enough. Night one, I slept all night and didn't wake up. I did not think about bed frames being comfortable/uncomfortable, but I can tell a vast difference switching to this one. I would give 10 stars if I could."

Bed Frame

This gorge linen bed frame is offered in four different neutral colors and has a high-reaching headboard. If you'd like your bed to make a statement, this one is an absolute scene-stealer.

Glowing customer review: "I absolutely love this bed frame, it was easy to put together, directions easy to follow, very well made piece of furniture. I was hesitant in the beginning; you know when things look a bit contorted to make it look good and it would be cheap furniture. Well, this furniture is worth your money and more."

Lift Up Storage Bed

Believe it or not, this platform bed's strongest draw isn't the chic and eye-catching color. There's a spacious storage cabinet underneath the mattress that'll allow you the convenience of throwing your stuff underneath without the cluttered look.

Glowing customer review: "The real star of this bed is its exceptional functionality. The lift-up storage feature is a game-changer for those in need of extra storage space. The hydraulic mechanism effortlessly lifts the mattress, revealing a spacious compartment underneath. This feature is perfect for storing bedding, seasonal clothing, or anything else you might want to keep out of sight. The mechanism is smooth and easy to operate, and it feels sturdy and reliable."

What are the benefits of an upholstered bed?

Now that you have an array of top-rated options to choose from, allow us to walk you through why upholstered beds have the upper hand over regular degular sleepers.

They're comfortable. The fabric and cushioning on an upholstered bed make these frames automatically softer than a wood or metal headboard to rest your head against. If you're a person who likes to read, or just generally chill while sitting up in bed vs. laying down, upholstery will make that experience feel way more snug.

They look good. Upholstered beds come in such a wide range of materials and styles (ahem, see the selections above for proof). So if you're looking for a bed that makes a statement instead of blending into your room's background, these types are great picks. Going for a coastal grandma bedroom aesthetic? Check out a linen bed! Got a maximalist mid-century modern vibe going on? A velvet frame might be your speed. The options are endless.

They're less noisy. Now this is an underrated pro, but a pro nonetheless. Because upholstered beds are covered in fabric and padding, those materials absorb a lot of the annoying squeaky frame sounds caused by tossing and turning. A win is a win!
