Increase Your Storage Space With Our Favorite Bed Risers (2024)

Our Top Picks

These super popular bed risers from Utopia Bedding are versatile, well designed, and durable. Each riser is two inches in height, but they are designed to be stacked so you can make the risers even higher if needed.

You can also purchase them in a pack of four, an eight-pack, or a 48-pack, and pick the 3-inch height option in four-, eight-, and 48-packs.

Each riser comes with an anti-slip foam pad to help keep it in place while keeping the floors safe. Plus, they are available in black, brown, or white color options. And, each riser can handle up to 1,250 pounds of pressure, making them some of the most durable options on our list.

Just be aware these are made from plastic, so they may appear cheaper than other picks on our list.

If you want more versatility from your bed risers, we like this pick from Slipstick. Measuring 1 inch in height, Slipstick’s risers stack on top of one another, and you can use up to three risers on top of each other. That means you have the option of 1-, 2-, or 3-inch height adjustments.

Stacking them is as simple as putting one riser inside of another. Each individual riser can handle up to 1,000 pounds. We like the clear design, too, which makes them more subtle than other picks.

Plus, there’s also a removable rubber base, which makes the risers safe for use on all floor surfaces (and grippy enough to keep your furniture in place).

Our only gripe? These risers are pricier, and they only come in a set of eight. This means that if you’re looking to gain 3 inches of height, you will be required to purchase another set of them. However, it’s important to note that they are designed to be used for many different styles of furniture, so owning a second package wouldn’t be the end of the world.

Designed specifically with dorm rooms in mind, Pottery Barn’s Teen Bed Risers are made to be able to add 7 inches of height, making them a great option to maximize storage underneath a bed in a cramped space.

These risers are designed to fit bedpost legs measuring up to 3 inches in size, with a minimum of 1.5 inches in width. So, these should work for most basic dorm room beds. We love that versatility, though users who don’t have a typical dorm bed may need an alternative option.

Despite weighing only 2.5 pounds, these risers can handle up to 350 pounds per riser. That sounds low, but with four risers in place, that’s a total of 1,400 pounds. As a result, these bed risers are extremely durable and ideal for the lighter nature of dorm beds.

If you don’t like the look of the black bed risers, they are also available in white. Just be aware that they are pricier than similar looking options.

If your bedroom features a lot of wood accents, you may not want to sacrifice that appeal with a bed riser. We like Honey-Can-Do’s Wood Bed Lifts because they are able to subtly lift your bed without sacrificing the look of your bedroom’s sleek wooden furniture. Available in either a cherry or maple color option, each riser can hold up to 300 pounds.

If you’re looking for maximum height, these won’t necessarily be the best option for you as they can only raise your bed 3.5 inches, but they won’t sacrifice style. They can also be stacked when not in usage.

_{Dimensions: 4.25 x 4.25 x 4 inches | Material: Wood | Maximum Height: 3.5 inches | Weight Capacity: 300 pounds}

With a weight limit of up to 9,000 pounds, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a bed riser more durable and heavy duty than this aluminum option from iPrimio. In fact, the aluminum construction is specifically built to avoid bending and breaking, even when put under extreme weights

We appreciate that this pick comes with a molded rubber bottom to keep it in place and to protect your floors. Plus, the rubber bottom is removable if you don’t want it on your carpet. And as far as attention to detail goes, the rubber base attachments are square, not round, designed with the intention of making vacuuming next to them easier.

This will lift your bed or other furniture up to 5 inches, but be aware that unlike other picks on our list, this one cannot be adjusted. Additionally, these risers do require some assembly, but the bolt and wrench to do so are included.

Tuffen’s Heavy Duty Bed Risers with Power Outlet and USB really aims and excels at offering convenience. We love the height you can get from these extra-tall risers, which provide up to an 8-inch lift so you can really elevate your bed. But at the same time, we love just how feature-filled these risers are.

Unlike other options on our list, these bed risers come with some unique perks. They have built-in electrical outlets and two USB ports, which means you’ll never be without a means to charge your phone or laptop, or even a way to plug in a lamp at night.

Plus, these are designed to last and withstand some serious pressure. With a 1,500-pound weight limit, these bed risers don’t skimp on durability. A stackable design also means you can choose between 5- and 8-inch options.

While some may want less height or even a more subtle design, we think these are a must-have if a ton of height and plenty of perks are what you’re searching for.

If keeping your furniture in place and your floors safe is your priority when looking to raise your bed, we like the BTSD-Home Bed Risers. Designed with three different components, these are geared toward stability.

Up top, a high-density foam pad helps prevent rolling, while also helping to keep the furniture’s legs safe. The bulk of the riser’s base is made with ABS plastic, which is designed to hold up to 2,200 pounds. Beneath that is a rubber bottom to help lock the setup in place and keep your wooden floors safe from scratches or other marks.

These bed risers are 3 inches tall and can be stacked as well for even more height. Plus, they can be purchased in white, black, brown, or multicolor options. However, they are very visible and their design will catch some eyes, so if you’re looking for something less noticeable, these won’t be for you.
