Need king size LEATHER STORAGE BED & MATRESS

I am looking to by a new Kingsize bed & Matteress as i am getting married.
1) I presume kingsize is most ideal for a married couple?
I am looking for a leather bed - with a lot of storage.
I am most likley going to go with BROWN leather as it goes with antique/oak furniture better
2) Would you agree
Now the bed i am looking for must have a lot of storage. I have been told ebay is a ideal place to get beds.
SO I found

    Ebay bed frame, good value for money, but the fake leather will be a very thin layer of PVC around chipboard or MDF. The downside is that if you knock it with something hard ie vacuum cleaner the PVC may split. But still a good price.

    Tesco one seems about the right price for the product. But no mention if gas struts or springs to hold it up, also no mention if it has a floor, which it should have really for that price.

    As for the monsterbed, they can't even get their sizes right. It says King size mattress but then gives the demensions as 135cm by 190cm which is a double size not king. The matt will be a cheap open coil spring construction, which I'm guessing will give you all of about 1 years service before you can feel the springs. I would stay away from this one!
