Review: Research, research. - because we bought from desertcart and not from the company itself they will not allow you to access their company's video tutorials which is unfortunate. Good product but lacks company support for people trying to access affordable product. Pity Review: Quality hardware/Excellent instructions - This is a quality product. The pistons, legs and brackets are solid. The hardware functioned properly on the first try. Parts are clearly labeled. The parts list and cut list are precise. Thanks for designing this for beginners. These are the most thorough instructions I've ever used. When combined with the multiple videos on the web page, they provide a clear path to completion. Pay particular attention to the warnings. If the instructions or videos warn against skipping a step or recommend a helper, follow their instruction. Lessons learned construction phase. If you don't have a large work surface, at least 4' X 8', I recommend some simple saw horses and 2 X 4s. It will speed up your work on the bed frame. Double and triple check your cut dimensions. If you're not using a table saw, you must use a quality rip guide for your circular saw to keep the big pieces square. Any rip cut on the cabinet that is off will show up during final assembly. I made a small error and it created a gap on the upper left cabinet. Because many of the edges are visible, a new saw blade for your circular saw, miter saw, or table saw is a good idea. Errors compound and there isn't much tolerance. When drilling holes for the hardware, attempt to keep the walls of the hole perpendicular to the surface for good seating. Always use a backer board when drilling through. Birch plywood splinters and chips without a backer. If you're using Baltic Birch or any 3/4" plywood do not scrimp on edge banding material or the trimmer. Buy a quality product with good adhesion. Sand all your edges before banding. It's much easier to do this big work in a garage away from the room if possible. Lessons learned assembly phase. Clear out the entire room. I attempted to work around a desk and added time to the project. It's very easy to get mixed up on header and footer when gluing the bed frame to the cabinet. Triple check which side gets the 3/4" gap. This was a major error I made that almost derailed a bunch of work. I was able to flip everything (luckily) and keep moving. The instructions recommend drawing a line on the cabinet to outline the 1/2" side gap and the 3/4" gap on the footer. This is the only deviation I made. After messing this up, I brad nailed 1/2" and 3/4" leftover plywood strips to the cabinet. This forced the bed frame to fit properly and will immediately show you if your cut dimensions were wrong. The construction glue they recommend is unforgiving. You will not easily remove any pieces of the bed frame from the cabinet without damaging the product. When installing pistons, you may have to really move the cabinet back and forth to get them to seat. Your partner needs some strength to help do this. The shim step during anchoring is critical! Buy a quality stud finder for the 5/16" anchor bolts. You need to know where center is. I'm an amateur woodworker with decent skills and this project was physically hard. I'm also a bit older. There is quite a bit of lifting, twisting, cutting, moving and assembling that requires physical strength. Part of this was moving parts from a separate garage on the fourth floor to a first floor condo. The construction phase took about 20 hours and the assembly phase 15 hours. Another individual painted and took about 6 hours. Buying lumber etc. was another couple hours. Home Depot delivered so this helped. Definitely not easy but a great value for experienced DIY folks. ## Features - DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS: Easy-to-follow, crystal clear instructions (on paper, PDF, and online videos) are included so you can easily build a beautiful Murphy Bed in a weekend.

I'm sure you could fabricate something similar and use the hardware, but the instructions included are really specific to the 1/8th of an inch and correct placement of hardware is crucial to assembly. It includes directions for all cuts for panels from 48"x96" sheets that maximize the total amounts of wood without waste. also that dvd is pretty step by step. When installing the pistons to frame i realized how crucial and glad i measured correctly all mounting points. All n All its was a fun project can be done in a weekend, I used the 3/4 plywood option ran me about 250 for supplies and paint, and its a sturdy piece.hope this helps... **Q: what weight capacity can the hardware handle** A: Well, I'm a big guy ... 5'11'' & 240lbs.. My wife is (Whoa...I almost messed up there!!!). Anyways, I think this bed, once assembled correctly, will easily handle 500lbs. Hope this helps. **Q: About how much money should I expect to spend for the wood needed to build this bed?** A: It depends on the size of the bed you would like to build, but on average the cost is between $200-$400 for plywood or particle board. **Q: How many sheets of plywood are required for a queen mattress? How many other pieces of wood and what type? $200 to $500 is a wide range.** A: For a queen size Murphy bed , you will need 4 sheets of 3/4"plywood, 2 sheets of 1/4" plywood , some 1"X2" frame struts and some solid wood. You can also build the entire bed out of plywood if you cut the wood yourself which cost a lot less. If you use the average plywood (not the more expensive ones ) your cost with be around $300-$350. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Research, research. *by J***E on 1 April 2025* because we bought from Amazon and not from the company itself they will not allow you to access their company's video tutorials which is unfortunate.

Everything fit perfectly and the springs work just as they should. My wife who is 70 can operate bed up and down easily. The only thing I had concerns about wax the 1 1/2 cross members for supporting the mattress and people in bed so I glued and screwed a 1 1/2 aluminum angle iron to them keeping in mind the total weight.
