The problem: a tall cal king bed and a pile of visible under-bed storage
Raise a California king on risers or a tall frame and you get a lot of useful storage space. You also get a clear view of every bin, box, and suitcase you've shoved under there. Many standard bedskirts stop well short of the floor on a tall bed, so the clutter stays on display.
See the $20.99 Cal King Bedskirt at Target
Levinsohn's Space Maker bedskirt is built for exactly this situation. It costs $20.99 at Target and has a 21-inch drop.
What the Space Maker bedskirt is
The full product name is the Levinsohn California King Underbed Storage 21-Inch Drop Tailored Bedskirt in White (Space Maker). It's designed to help hide bed risers, box springs, and under-bed storage.
- Drop length: 21 inches
- Size: California king
- Style: Tailored with split corners and open pleats (not ruffled)
- Material: 100% polyester
- Care: Machine washable, easy care
- Color: White (check the live listing for other color options)
- Price: $20.99 at Target
The tailored design gives a clean, simple look. The split corners are meant to work around bed frame posts.
Measure first: will a 21-inch drop fit your bed or pool on the floor?
Don't buy this until you measure. Run a tape from the floor to the top of your box spring or bed frame, since that's where a bedskirt platform sits.
- If that distance is about 21 inches, this drop is a match.
- If it's noticeably shorter, the skirt may pool on the floor.
- If it's taller, you'll still see a gap at the bottom.
It's also worth confirming that your bed is a true California king before you order.
Bed risers and under-bed storage: how the long drop is meant to be used
The long drop makes the most sense on tall frames or beds that have been raised. If your bed is lower, you may need bed risers to get the intended coverage, and risers are not included.
The listing says the skirt helps conceal more than 21 square feet of storage. How much space you actually get depends on your bed's clearance and frame setup.
What reviewers say: accurate length, but thin fabric and some fit complaints
Target reviews are mixed. The skirt sits at roughly 3.2 to 3.3 out of 5 stars from about 25 to 26 ratings, depending on when you check.
What reviewers like:
- The length is accurate.
- It lies flat after washing and ironing.
What reviewers dislike:
- Many describe the fabric as thin and inexpensive-looking.
- Some question how well it will hold up over time.
There's also a fit risk to keep in mind. Reviews of a comparable Bed Maker's skirt mention limited fabric to tuck under the mattress and corners that don't fully reach the headboard. That isn't a confirmed problem with this exact product, but check the fit when it arrives.
Setup notes: expect wrinkles, plan to wash, dry, and possibly iron
Expect creases straight out of the package. Reviewers say washing, drying, and ironing it gets it much flatter. Plan for that step before guests arrive or before you photograph the room.
Who this is for (and who should skip it)
Good fit for:
- Cal king owners with tall frames or risers who want to hide under-bed storage
- Guest rooms
- Home staging and showings
- Short-term rentals that need an inexpensive, washable cover-up
Reviewers specifically call it a relatively inexpensive temporary fix for guest rooms, staging, and home showings.
Skip it if:
- You want a plush, polished, or decorative bedskirt
- You need something built for years of heavy use
Alternatives to consider
Target's California king category lists this skirt alongside 14- and 15-inch skirts from brands like Bed Maker's, Bare Home, and Nestl. Other 21-inch cal king skirts also exist, including cotton-blend and split-corner designs.
A few other options:
- Bed Maker's California King Wrap-around Tailored Bed Skirt: A polyester skirt with a wrap-around design.
- Bed Maker's Magic Skirt Ruffled California King Bed Skirt: Worth a look if you prefer a ruffled style.
- Levinsohn Fresh Ideas 14-Inch Tailored Cal King Skirt: Made for standard-height beds with less clearance.
- Luxury Hotel California King Classic Tailored Bed Skirt: A 14-inch-drop polyester option, also for standard-height beds.
Price check: $20.99 at Target
The Space Maker is $20.99 at Target. That's its regular price, so it isn't on sale. It's simply an affordable item. Confirm the current price and color options on the live page before you check out.
Bottom line
Levinsohn's Space Maker is a practical, low-cost way to hide what's under a tall California king. It's not a decor upgrade, and reviewers are clear that the fabric is thin.
Check your floor-to-box-spring height first. If 21 inches fits, grab it at Target for $20.99. If your bed sits at standard height, the 14-inch options are a better place to start.
