A bedroom storage bench might be the most understated piece of furniture you can buy for a small room. Whether it's to hold your extra (but arguably necessary) handbag collection or to give your extra bedding sets a home, this bench will soon be the object your space has been missing for way too long.
Not just a new place to sit and put your socks on, a bedroom storage bench can become a standout piece — just like a storage headboard or a dresser. It works perfectly at the bottom of your bed, otherwise, an empty wall that's calling out for something to be pushed up against it is another winning spot. And if you're someone who has a clothes chair (you know the one, with all of your worn — but not dirty enough for the laundry — clothes piled on it) then it's time to do a bit of rearranging. A bench will hold more both on top of it and inside it, and it's a total savior when guests are coming in five and your room looks like a total trainwreck.
Confession: I don't have a storage bench in my bedroom, but only because I have a larger-than-life dresser. But, I am looking at getting a storage bench for my narrow entryway, and you can bet it's going to have hidden storage. Who doesn't need all of the extra space they can get?
Here are six stylish bedroom storage benches I came across while online shopping, all of which I would buy for my own home.

Play it cool with this black bedroom storage bench that sits super close to your floor and lifts to reveal so much useful storage space inside. It's super soft to the touch and comfortable to sit on. One for minimalist bedrooms or modern homes, its curved edges and black finish make it the perfect balance between subtle yet striking.

Go for this bench if you want to incorporate more textures into your bedroom. It's wrapped in a polyester blend and comes in a neutral cream hue, though its seat is tufted for an added touch. It's all about the clean, straight lines with this one, and it'll be sure to add elegance to your space. I personally love this pick and can't believe it's on sale.

It's no secret that I am obsessed with the majority of the furniture sold on Urban Outfitters' website. This storage bench is no exception. It comes in four colors, holds a lot of stuff, and is made to order. Checkered furniture and decor are all over my TikTok right now, and this bench will definitely add some pattern to a space that might need it.

Sitting on wooden angled feet, this is one for Scandi-inspired or minimalist homes. Though it doesn't offer a huge amount of storage space, the linen-wrapped bench will be an unobtrusive addition to your bedroom. The best part is that it costs less than $90. Underneath, there's storage for your favorite magazines or your pair of slippers.

Go bold with this pick, which comes in five colors and in a velvet finish. Whether you're currently using color in your bedroom or staying away from it, this would be a really great addition to a space. Its lid adds texture thanks to its unique woven detail, and it sits on black metal legs.
Size: H28'' x W52'' x D19''
With this bench, you'll get two bolster cushions included, for added comfort (and luxury). Its velvet finish comes in two shades of gray and it sits atop solid walnut legs. It's one of those storage benches you would never think had hidden storage, which makes it even more likable in my eyes.
