Why our sleep experts loved it

The Deacon Upholstered Blanket Box has largely received positive reviews, emphasizing its multi-functional attributes, robust build quality, and aesthetic appeal. Customers appreciate the box for both its utilitarian benefits and its ability to seamlessly integrate into a room's existing decor.

The product scores high on visual aesthetics, described as "gorgeous," "expensive looking," and "stylish," which suggests that it aligns well with consumers' preferences for furniture that is not just functional but also adds a dash of elegance to their rooms. It appears to pair perfectly with the Deacon bed, and customers find it a worthwhile addition to complete a coordinated bedroom set. The color, which some describe as a 'nice neutral tone,' appears to be versatile enough to blend well with different types of room decor.

Customers also laud its sturdiness and durability, highlighting that it's "well-built" and "strong." Many of them describe the anti-slam mechanism as a noteworthy feature, pointing to a thoughtful design that prioritizes user safety. The product's utility as a storage solution is frequently highlighted, with customers finding ample space to store everyday items or less frequently used objects like extra blankets and pillows.

Some minor grievances do exist. A few customers mentioned issues with the fabric having 'natural imperfections' or bordering on pulls. Additionally, the size seems to be a concern for some; especially when placed next to a super king-sized bed, the box appears a bit diminutive.

In my opinion, the Deacon Upholstered Blanket Box proves to be a well-rounded product that serves a dual purpose. It not only offers a storage solution but also elevates the aesthetic charm of the bedroom. Its sturdiness and build quality make it a reliable piece of furniture, while the anti-slam mechanism and ample storage make it a practical choice for modern living. It would serve those well who are looking for a harmonious blend of style, functionality, and durability in their bedroom furniture.

I bought this to go at the foot of my bed to encourage my duvet to stay put on the bed, rather than taking a dive off the end of it every night. It works, I am very pleased to say and is much more convenient than the extra bed head, which I bought from you earlier in the year to attach to the bed foot. I had not yet got round to fixing that, because I realised it would cause much harder work when changing sheets or turning the mattress. This Storage Chest is ideal because it is much smaller than any available earlier in the year -rejected because they would have been much too big and blocked the available space. So, this one is ideal and also provides extra storage for other pillows and duvets.

I bought this to add to newly decorated bedroom. It is strong and stylish with its buttoned top but totally functional in that it will hold a lot of bedding. It added the finishing touch to the room and I am very happy with this purchase.

Great little matching storage chest for our new bed. Great product, although does look a little small next to the super king sized bed. A larger version of this would be much better.
