Pratico Queen Storage Bed with Gas Lift

We got the Practico to help us with the storage challenges of downsizing from a house to a small 2 BR condo. After a lot of research we determined that it was the deepest/fullest capacity storage lift bed on the market, takes up the least amount of floor space and looks absolutely fabulous, plus you won't crack your shins on the corners which are rounded. The lift is strong/solid but easy to use. We were unable to get home assembly due to the pandemic, and would recommend paying the extra for this service unless you are technically handy, as we found the instructions difficult to understand, took a long time and we made a couple of errors along the way. However, this gave us the opportunity to fully benefit from Expand's exceptional customer service. Every member of their team supported us and responded quickly to our needs throughout the process, which was quite a bit more complicated due to the pandemic - professional, courteous and helpful service provided before purchase in answering our questions, during purchase, delivery and post-set up. Thank you Team Expand!

We wanted to share our review of your Pratico Queen Storage Bed with gas lifts hat we purchased 6 months ago. Simply put, the storage capacity is awesome, the ease of lifting a heavy queen mattress is simple and almost effortless, and the assembly was straight forward and relatively simple with good instructions. I assembled it by myself, but probably better to have another help. We recently downsized our home to something less than 1/2 size and storage became a top priority. The Pratico lift bed makes a huge difference in providing substantial storage. Large enough for travel luggage, extra bedding, valuables and anything else you may have. Depth is great for larger objects and compared to our other queen bed with under storage drawers, the usable storage is significantly more with our Pratico Queen Storage Lift Bed. I must add Expand Furniture's customer service is like no other, especially these days. They are very quick to respond to ANY questions or issues. We plan on buying the white version soon for our guest bedroom mostly because they were such a joy to do business with.
Thank you for a quality product that provides a great storage solution!

In my small downtown apartment, storage space is at a premium. I love this bed for giving me fully double the space I would have had with just my closet. I put a full latex mattress on it (heavy), and the pistons have no problem maintaining the weight. The lift functions perfectly even at the upper end of the recommended weight limit. The assembly instructions recommend two people and I agree that it's probably best to have someone help you put it together... most of it I could have done myself, but a couple steps I think would have been hard for me by myself. On top of all that, the customer service from Expand was great.

The bed is very beautiful and seems sturdy. My previous bed cracked in numerous places so I am super alert to the issue of craftsmanship. It is a bit taller than expected, especially with a thick mattress, but that gives it a lofty look. The space inside has resolved my condo clutter.

We were looking for a storage bed as our new apartment isn't that big and lacked storage space. We decided to go with the Pratico and it had the most storage 13" deep!!. This is the largest space under a storage bed we could find. The package was HEAVY, that is because this wooden bed frame is not made of particle board, unlike some others, this one was solid wood. Once it was assemble and we put our new queen mattress on, the gas shocks had no problem holding our bed up to ensure it doesn't come down while we are grabbing stuff from underneath. We were worried at first as our mattress is on the heavy side, but this had no problems at all. We lift the bed everyday to grab stuff so this was really important. The curved edges make for a clean and modern design and if you've ever stubbed your toe on the corner of a square bed, you are going to love the curved edges. The bed frame does not creak or make and noise if you move around in your sleep a lot like I do. The removable headboard is nice to have as well. My wife and I are moving and we are keeping this bed frame. Another great thing about this bed is that it is easy to disassemble and you are actually able to disassemble and re-assemble. Many beds are almost a one time use, but the Pratico is built to last.
