This platform murphy bed gives you a spot to sleep without sacrificing the style of your guest room or home office. It folds against the wall when you need extra floor space, and it blends seamlessly into the background as a bookcase or cabinet when not in use. The structure is crafted from engineered wood, and it comes in a sleek, solid finish for a modern touch. Two storage compartments, one on each side, include a cabinet, drawer, and multiple shelves to tuck away items and display decor. A box spring is not necessary: Just pull down the frame and set down your mattress (sold separately). The wall bed MUST be attached to 3-4 wall studs for safety and stability. Professional installation IS required.
