All murphy beds / Murphy Bed Depot
Murphy Bed Depot The Home Office
A 15 inch bed cabinet with an 18 inch desk in front of it, so 18 inches is the depth to plan against rather than 15. Depot says the unit supports up to 500 lbs, which is a load rating for the platform and not a mattress weight limit, so we have not recorded it as one. The stated mattress ceiling is under 10 inches thick at 60 by 79.5 inches.

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.
- The room is an office on weekdays and a guest room at weekends.
Look elsewhere if
- 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.
- You expected a mattress in the price. Budget for one on top of the figures in the table.
What Murphy Bed Depot publishes, and what it does not
We track 14 figures on a finished bed before calling a record complete. Murphy Bed Depot publishes 11 of them for the The Home Office. 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 lift mechanism. Which means the lift is undescribed, and that is the part under load twice a day and the part most likely to need servicing.
- 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 the maker offers no estimate of how long this takes to put together, which is worth asking if you are paying somebody by the hour.
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
Forgetting the bed has to tilt through the ceiling
A vertical bed swings up through an arc, so it needs slightly more headroom than the closed cabinet height suggests. Sloped ceilings and low light fittings are the usual casualties.
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.
