Who this suits

Worth a look if

  • You have a wall you can drill into and want the cabinet held flat and solid against it.
  • You want the lift to feel light and even, and you would rather not re-tension anything.
  • The room is an office on weekdays and a guest room at weekends.
  • Your ceiling is low or the wall is wide and short, which is exactly where a horizontal bed wins.

Look elsewhere if

  • You need a king. This model is not offered in one.
  • You want a choice of sizes. This model is offered in queen only.
  • You cannot make holes in the wall. This one is designed to be anchored to it.

What Expand Furniture publishes, and what it does not

We track 14 figures on a finished bed before calling a record complete. Expand Furniture publishes 13 of them for the Hover - Horizontal Queen Murphy Bed Desk. The 1 it leaves out are worth knowing before you buy, because each one is a decision you will end up making without the maker's help.

We leave these blank rather than estimating them. A — in our tables is always a gap in the manufacturer's own documentation, never a number we chose not to look up.

What people get wrong with this one

Buying the mattress first

Murphy beds cap mattress thickness because the mattress has to fold into the cabinet with the bed. This one stops at 10 inches. A mattress bought before the bed is the most common expensive mistake in this category.

Anchoring into drywall alone

A wall mounted bed transfers real load into the wall. Studs or solid blocking are not optional, and finding them before delivery day saves an unhappy afternoon.

Leaving tall things on the desk

A stay level desk keeps the surface horizontal as the bed comes down, but the clearance above it is finite. Monitors and lamps usually have to come off.
