Product Description
Placing these sturdy, high-density bed risers beneath the legs or wheels of your bed makes getting out of bed easier. For heartburn or reflux sufferers, doctors recommend raising the head of your bed-piles of pillows do not achieve the goal. Use two risers at the head for the correct angle. We researched the market for bed risers and found these to be the sturdiest and strongest on the market! Holds 300 lbs. each (1200 lbs. total for set of 4). Extra-wide base and deep indent cavity on each block for strength and stability. Won't harm floors or carpets. Can be used under couches, chairs--anywhere help is needed when getting up. 3".

 These worked for me... February 19, 2010
S. Greene (Tallahassee, FL United States)
These worked for me pretty well. The only thing is, I had to buy different legs for my bed frame. I bought legs that replaced the wheels and looked like flat discs at the bottom. The flat discs (I actually think they're called glides) fit perfectly in the circular opening of the riser and helped to distribute the weight evenly for the bed. I actually bought them a few years ago and they are still in very good shape. I even suggested that my sister buy some, which she did, and they are working just fine. I gave them four stars because I had to buy different frame legs (and I don't think some people did or realized this), so an added expense.
 Bed Risers. What more can I say? April 20, 2009
Matthew Raimo (Bronx, NY)
They're bed risers. It's pretty straight foward.
AS far as a review? They work well. It's made from really durbale plastic, I say this because I recieved them and one was chipped at the bottom and had a crack from bottom to top. I was a little worried about using them but I really had no choice. Needless to say everything is working out just fine.
The other plus side is that they slide really well when I need nudge my bed over a bit or what have you. Doubt they will do really well with this on carpet.
Over all a really good product.
 Plastic bed risers February 9, 2009

I was excited to lift our bed higher, these are dangerous. I took apart our Cal King, and put 6 of these under the legs. Kinda finicky to set up, one falls and 4 seem to go...so I finally get them all set. I adjust the mattress and smash they all go down again....They are junk plain and simple. God help if you have a cat and its under there.

I went through two sets of these and both sets failed. The problem with this product is no structural support in the construction of the risers. After a few weeks, the riser cracks and the frame legs go right through the riser. Its just a sheet of plastic that keeps the bed up; the body of the riser is totally hollow.
If these risers were made of solid wood they'd work fine. But don't even both with this product.
Not attractive...but add height to your bed and give the gift of storage space beneath June 30, 2008

You can add quite a bit of storage to your bedroom with bed lifts. This is one of the simplest and most painless techniques for adding organized space to your life.
*Underbed storage is challenging*
We have a combination sort of bed - it's a futon frame, with a big futon, and then a foot-deep foam layer, followed by an amazingly thick feather mattress (I found this bit of luxury for only 30 dollars at Goodwill). This bed is as far from a boring futon as you can get! We call this bed a `nest' and we sleep like the dead. :)
Storage-wise, there's very little room under a futon frame. We did use a thin underbed plastic bin, but pretty much we just jammed whatever would fit in there, making organization challenging and retrieval most difficult.
*A bed lift was in order*
We wanted the highest possible bed lifts. There are nice wooden ones, made in various stains to match your bed's actual wood, if it has a wood frame. We saw those kinds in Bed, Bath and Beyond, four for $20. We did want something to add more inches, though, and we didn't want to have to buy two kits, since a futon frame has six legs instead of the usual four.
We settled on a set of plastic bed lifts made by Bed, Bath and Beyond themselves. They are black polypropylene, four for only $10. We were able to buy two separate lifts at $2.50 each so we could have our six bed supports. These lifts added five inches to our bed!
We were even able to crawl under our bed and organize things. This actually, along with our multitudes of mattresses, brings our little nest up to normal bed height, which I appreciate. I like getting down off my bed, rather than having to "get up" to get up in the morning.
Think how much extra room this would provide to a regular (ie - non-futon) bed that is already reasonably off the ground!
*What to do with all that extra space*
Best categories of things for the under bed space include items you don't need to access on a daily basis:
* out of season clothes - especially the bulky stuff
* picnic items
* sleeping bags, tents and other camping gear
* extra blankets, extra pillows
* extra first aid supplies or excess toiletries in a bin (this is very useful if your home, like mine, lacks a linen closet)
* guest linens
* dog grooming supplies in a basket
* ready-to-grab Disaster Planning Kit or any emergency supplies
The black casters we used are not incredibly attractive, so you might be happier with the wooden ones that are available. My solution - add a bed skirt, craft some cute leg skirting yourself, or just make sure you have long bed blankets that drape down and hide the legs. It's very worth it to us, to have this extra usable space in our tiny apartment!
If we could have found bed lifts made of recycled plastic content, this product would have been even better.
