It's cozy, it's gorgeous, it's the dream. I'm talking about the cloud bed you've seen on TikTok. It has made serious waves on the app, thanks to its vanilla girl aesthetic and how satisfying it is to build and lie on.
The Restoration Hardware cloud slip-covered platform bed is the one that everyone absolutely loves, but this premium bed frame can go for as much as $4,500. Eek — that's a lot of cash. But thankfully, we've found some similar designs that start from under $250, so don't sleep on them!
Yes, our edit still captures the relaxed modernism of mid-20th-century American design, but for an astonishing 18 times less. And, from trusted retailers such as Wayfair, Target, and Crate & Barrel, you can rest assured that the quality is as you'd expect.

Paired with the best mattress your money can buy, you might be in for a game-changing sleep. But that price just isn't doable for everyone. As with everything though, for every out-of-reach original, there's an affordable offering that looks just as good. So, I've rounded up a range of different cloud bed stand-ins that are super stunning.

6 viral TikTok cloud bed lookalikes
These six cloud bed alternatives are definitely worth getting
Sweet dreams are made of these beautiful cloud bed options, that won't even cost you half the price of the original.
The prices below were correct at the time of publishing this article.
Size (in.): W64 x D80
Made from: Foam and polyester
Price: $899.99
Believe me, this is the #1 Cloud bed doppelganger you can get. It's the top choice for most TikTokers since it's almost identical to the RH original and all for under $1,000.
Size (in.): W56.55 x L79.56
Made from: Wood and faux leather
Price: $275.99
This is slightly smaller than a classic cloud bed, but if you don’t want to spend a lotta dollar, this faux leather bed is def a fab alternative. It still has a large headboard to chill and lean back on, and is low down enough to feel like you’re sinking into a cloud, rather than just hopping into a plain ol’ bed.
Size (in.): W60.6 x L85.8
Made from: MDF and faux leather
Price: $284.99
Next thing you know, you’re gonna get low, low, low on this bed. The headboard is adjustable, so whether you’re catching some zzzs or watching Netflix, you can be as comfy as poss. It doesn’t have the big ol’ sides, but it is a sleigh shape, which I think makes it look even more like a cloud.
Size (in.): W65.7 x L88.6
Made from: Faux leather and wood
Price: $459.99
This cloud bed replica is an absolute find, IMO. This isn't a slipcover bed — instead, it has an upholstered frame design. With this particular model, you get extra under-bed storage. Even better than the original, I think.
Size (in.): W65.8 x D86.6
Made from: Wood, foam, polyester
Price: $1,499.99
If you aren’t loving the idea of having your whole bed on the ground and want some storage space, this bed from Target is a great choice. I’m loving the plush white look and cozy headboard that gives it that cloud bed look, as well as the gold legs that give it an extra luxe feel.
Size (in.): W108.75 x D92.25
Made from: Wood and cotton
Price: $1,799
This may be the most expensive example here, but at half the price of RH's slipcover for an *arguably* cozier-looking design, I'd say this one's worth the investment.
