Who this suits
Worth a look if
- You want it to turn up as furniture rather than as a woodworking project.
- 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.
- You are not willing to trade down in bed size to buy back floor space.
Look elsewhere if
- You expected a mattress in the price. Budget for one on top of the figures in the table.
- You sleep on a deep mattress. This one caps out at 10 inches.
- You want a choice of sizes. This model is offered in king only.
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 11 of them for the Hover Modern King Murphy Bed. The 3 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.
- Not published: the mattress weight window. Which means no weight rating is given, which matters because the counterbalance is tuned to a range rather than to any mattress.
- Not published: assembly time. Which means assembly time is unstated, and on a wall-mounted bed that is the difference between an afternoon and a weekend.
- Not published: panel materials. Which means no material is named, so you cannot tell whether the cabinet is plywood, MDF or particleboard behind the finish.
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
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.
Treating a sale price as the price
This category runs near permanent promotions, and the figure in our table is what the manufacturer showed on the date we checked. Confirm the current price before you budget around it.
Measuring the wall and forgetting the floor
The cabinet is the easy measurement. The one that catches people is how far the bed reaches into the room once it is down, which is 84.5 inches here. Add walking room on top of that before deciding it fits.
