Extremely sturdy and well-made. I work on the desk everyday and my parents and in-laws sleep on the Murphy bed every time they visit!

Incredibly impressed by the care of the packaging. Everything was well wrapped and labeled. Another impressive thing that is not often seen is the hardware was individually wrapped in a ziplock bag and labeled with the step number it corresponds to. The full instructions are all available on YouTube with a QR code on each page that takes you to the YouTube video of the step you are. Lastly, it's a very solid piece of furniture and overall impressed with the quality of not only the materials but the thought put into the customers that need to put it together.

This is a wonderful piece of furniture. We love this bed and the desk, made of high quality materials and hardware. We purchased a full-size bed. The step-by-step instructions are very good, accompanied by videos for every step, if one needs a visual guidance. After reading the reviews, we decided to hire a handyman. He had never assembled this bed and desk before and had no issues. It took him 5,5 hours to complete the assembly. You would need one more person to help with one step, but otherwise, one person apparently can assemble this set. Our guest bedroom/office has gotten a make over. Both the bed and the desk look and feel solid. I use the desk daily. It is a normal size desk, looks great and can sit 4-5 people around it. The desk feels a bit low for me (I’m 5’10”) but I simply found a chair that fits the height. It feels fine to me now. The bed is intended for guests. We purchased an 11” mattress that fits perfectly. The creators of the bed thought of a built-in shelf and a space for a decoration on the wall when the bed is down. If you want a quick upgrade in comfort, interior decoration, and functionality for any space where you want to have an office that turns to a convenient bedroom space, I have not seen a better piece of furniture on the web yet—and we have done a research for several months before locating this beauty.

You can have your cake and eat it with this Murphy bed. Our guests praise the comfort and I find it VERY easy to lift up and down. I can even store it as a mde-up bed, just like I do with a regular bed. The desk is CEO size so very workable.

Assembly was fairly straight forward. Definitely need at least 2 able bodied people to do it - and a third would have been helpful for some steps in my opinion.
