Murphy Door Murphy Bed with Left Cabinet
Ships unassembled. Adds one side cabinet to the bed-only unit. Patented gas-piston pull-down mechanism machined in house, counterbalanced to the mattress weight and rated to 600 lbs. Takes a standard mattress up to 11 inches with no box spring, and the mattress is not included. The maker gives the open depth only as an approximation in prose rather than a specification, so we leave it blank rather than record a rounded marketing figure. The published price is a single starting figure with size selected as an option, and it is recorded here against the smallest size offered.

Who this suits
Worth a look if
- You want the lift to feel light and even, and you would rather not re-tension anything.
- You want the wall to earn its keep, with storage flanking the bed rather than a blank cabinet face.
- The room is genuinely small and a smaller mattress is enough for how often the bed gets used.
- You are not willing to trade down in bed size to buy back floor space.
Look elsewhere if
- 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.
- You need to settle room fit on paper before committing. The maker does not publish how far this one reaches into the room, so measuring means seeing one.
What Murphy Door publishes, and what it does not
We track 14 figures on a finished bed before calling a record complete. Murphy Door publishes 10 of them for the Murphy Bed with Left Cabinet. The 4 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 the mattress weight window is unstated, so there is no way to check a heavy latex or hybrid mattress against the lift before buying it.
- Not published: assembly time. Which means no assembly time is given, so plan for most of a day and a second pair of hands.
- Not published: country of manufacture. Which means the maker does not say where this is built, which some buyers weigh and all buyers should be able to check.
- Not published: open depth. Which means nobody publishes how far this reaches into the room when it is down, so it cannot be checked against your floor plan by us or anyone else.
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 11 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.
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.
