Pur Full Size Murphy Bed in Bark Grey, 59-inch Space-Saving Sleeping Arrangement for Multipurpose Area, Bedroom, Guest Room, or Living Room

This Murphy bed is perfect! We got the queen size in white, and it completely transformed our space. The bed folds up smoothly and allows us to use the room for both an office and a guest room. When it’s down, it’s sturdy and comfortable, and when it’s up, it looks sleek and saves so much space. The white finish matches easily with any décor and makes the room feel bright and open. Assembly took some time, but the instructions were clear. Excellent quality and a great solution for dual-use rooms! Comfortably fits/hold the weight of 2 adults and a toddler.

This is a nice looking, sturdy murphy bed. It's also massive and takes some strength and skills to assemble. It came in 4 boxes, both large and heavy. The delivery guy helped me enter them in the room (which has a door on the driveway) otherwise it would have been already a problem. Overall it took me several days (not continuous) mostly by myself. A skilled and strong person can assemble it alone. Another person help in a couple of point doesnt hurt. Be aware that the instructions call for anchoring on the wall (against studs) AND on the floor (both on the floor itself and at the base of the wall). The problem with anchoring at the base of the wall is that the holes in the metal frame are pre-drilled, so if the holes are not (they won't be) corresponding to a stud and you do not have masonry or wood there you are out of luck. I opted to install just on the wall and the floor, and I think it should be enought. The final assembly of the doors is the most complicated part because the instructions are nor very detailed and because you have to drill and anchor the doors without knowing where they will actually be positioned. On customer service, I needed help with the instructions and a missing minor piece (one of the slats): in both case I was able to speak to the manufacturer's representatives (number provided) and they were able to explain what wasn't clear and send the replacement part free of charge (they actually sent 2). It's not everyday that you can speak to live person, so that's a strong quality point. TLDR: nice and sturdy but assembly is not for the faint of heart or the inexperienced.

For background I'm a woman in my 40s, and was able to install this completely by myself in a few hours. The bed came in 4 huge very heavy boxes. I needed someone to help lift them into my house and in an adjoining room to where I wanted to install the bed. It is well packed with lots of cardboard and styrofoam surrounding the items. Nothing was damaged in transit. The material is particleboard, but very thick and study and when assembled it looks nice and is better quality than I was expecting. I have children and was worried about them being able to open it themselves, but the handles are high up, and requires adult strength to pull open and hold up while moving supporting bar around the mattress, my very strong 8 year old could not do independently. I was nervous to put this together by myself based on the reviews, but the directions were simple and easy to follow and required minimal tools. I used the mattress I had purchased to hold the bed open when required (while still in box), a second person was not actually necessary for anything other than lifting the boxes inside my home. I was also nervous about the mattress fitting and the 10 inch pillow top that I purchased fits with ease under the supporting frame. I do not think a thicker mattress will fit, however. Because I installed it on carpet I have to plane the bottom molding as it pops off when I open the bed due to the carpet height underneath. This wouldn't be a problem when installing on other flooring.

On the positive, the unit seems to be well designed. The directions are well marked, but some of the parts are not. You need to do some extra modifications not in the directions. None of the threaded inserts fit in the holes provided. If you try to drive them in with a hammer as the directions tell you, you will break out or split the wood. You need to auger them out with slightly larger drill bit. Lot's of parts and hardware. Product is not dandy if you're not handy. An update to my previous ranking. Now that I'm finalizing my painstaking assembly and instal, I have found other issues. Support rod to legs came shipped with stripped threads and will not tightened. Baseboard was drilled wrong and will not fit. I will need to fabricate a new one. Also, you need to have a helper with very small hands to secure the bed frame pivots. Manufacturer could have made this a much better product without affecting the size of the shipping package had they done more pre-assembly before shipping.

This bed is beautiful. It took us some time to put together, due to instructions not very good. Once it was put together it is so beautiful. We have received so many compliments on it. If looking for a Murphy bed I highly recommend this one.

It's heavy, it takes a lot of work to put it together, and the instructions were sometimes vague, but I did it all without any help. The quality is excellent, and it looks and functions perfectly

Too much work to assemble for price!

A real space saver for our spare bedroom.
