What they don’t tell you is that the shelf piece and the bed platform piece are not connected at all. Assembly was pretty straightforward, took a few hours over 3 days. The bed platform is very heavy, so you need two people to open and close the bed. Once you add the mattress, two people have to be extremely strong to lift the whole thing up to close it. The standard queen mattress does not easily fit inside of the cabinet to close it. I got a 10”. I had to unfasten the top “seatbelt” and push the mattress all the way in the cabinet to close and lock it. I would not recommend this bed. I don’t know why I bothered with this bed when the rest of the reviews are bad.

This has no Murphy Bed spring kit. It's just two separate pieces and they expect you to use your own strength to lower and to lift the bed. I'm extremely mad because the photos are misleading. It shows a woman lowering the bed with the mattress one handed. This is not possible on my own! It's extremely heavy. I'm beyond angry because it took forever to be delivered and was annoying to put together. They give you drywall anchors to install it which is insane but I guess they were thinking because the shelf (bottom of the bed) doesn't connect to the wall at all. The only time it's connected is by 4 latches. I can't lift this thing. Since it's not connected to the back piece it moves forward and back. The wall piece looks like it's gonna break as I jiggle the bottom side to side to get it inside enough to lift. Looks low quality when everything's closed. Theres uneven gaps on either side. I really feel like I got scammed.

Do Not Buy. Unsafe. This product is such poor quality and poor construction it is actually unsafe. Some of the parts would not align and off by almost an inch. The construction is so poorly engineered that it WILL fall apart and buckle making this product unsafe Also it doesn’t fit a normal queen mattress at the 80” length.

Very secure and stylish at same time. Don't anticipate visitors often, so doubling as a bookshelf is perfect! Visitors will love that we have a queen-size bed waiting for them!

Perfect!
