Twin Bookcase Storage Bed – Espresso

Captains beds are a dichotomy. On the one hand they have a stern elegance, a sense of power and prestige, that is tempered by functionality. And yet, there is also a whimsy to them, as they hearken back to days of yore when captains living in cramped ships invented these clever designs in order to ensure they had space for all of their possessions. That adds a story to the bed, an idea of adventure on the open seas that is only complemented by the functionality.

This espresso captains bed features a twin size mattress area that is perfect for cramped spaces and small bedrooms. It is constructed using solid wood materials, which are bound to one another using real, secure, metal on metal fasteners to ensure a durable and long lasting piece of furniture. The espresso finish is coated in a chemical free sealant to protect it against damage.

You have the ability to customize this bed into one of three configurations. That allows you to opt for more storage, with three or six drawers built directly into the base of the piece. You can also upgrade this captains bed to add a pull out trundle underneath the storage drawers, giving you a handy way to let friends and family stay over for the night.

The drawers installed in this bookcase bed are 15” x 18” x 5” in size. That makes them wider than the average drawers used in the furniture industry.

One of the best things about this bookcase captains bed is its versatility. The twin size means that it is great for children’s bedrooms, although they offer so many storage options they can also be useful in a kids playroom. These are also an option if you are looking to turn a small, unused room into the house into a guest bedroom. With all of those drawers you will have a place to store clean towels, sheets, and toiletries, and the pull out trundle gives you the versatility of letting a family member’s child sleep near them but not with them.


Bookcase Captains Bed Options

You have a number of different configurations that you can choose for your bookcase bed. The first is the three drawer under bed options. These drawers are all oversized at 15” x 18” x 5” and feature brass hardware, and smooth European gliders as well as stoppers to prevent the drawer from accidentally slipping out.

The next option is the six drawer configuration. That doubles the amount of storage you have and can even replace a full size dresser and even give you more space to keep your things. That eliminates a piece of furniture you have to buy as well as another item that will take up space in your room.

The deluxe option for this bookcase captains bed is to choose the six drawer under bed configuration, along with a pull out trundle. That gives you all of the storage of a dresser with six 15” x 18” x 5” drawers, as well as an entirely extra sleeping space for friends and family. Maximize the use of a room with this premium captains bed with storage.
