Determine the Size and Location of Your Murphy Bed
First, decide where you want to set up a guest room with your Murphy bed. For instance, will it be in a shared living area, home office or basement? Once you’ve decided on the location, you can start to plan out your space. It’s a good idea to measure the walls and floor to know what model works best with your available space.
Bestar Murphy beds come in full or queen-size models, so you can choose the perfect fit for your room. In addition, Bestar recommends a clearance of 30 to 36 inches around the open bed, so be sure to keep this in mind when planning your space.
What about storage options? If your Murphy bed will be in a living room, kids’ playroom, craft area or home gym, you might consider opting for a model with one or two storage units to keep all your belongings neat and organized. When the bed is closed, it stands as a beautiful cabinet, taking up minimal floor space. When you want to use the bed, all you need to do is clear the floor space in front of the unit and pull the bed down.
The dual-piston system makes it easy to open and close the bed as needed, without any heavy lifting or pulling. What’s more, all Murphy beds are anchored to the wall and floor structure by a professional or qualified person. No matter what size space you have, you’re sure to find the right Murphy bed for your home.
Choose the Right Murphy Bed
Next, you can start looking at what type of Murphy bed you want. Bestar has Murphy beds in a variety of designs and styles, so you can choose a model that meets your needs and works with your space.
If you’re looking for a practical option, why not consider a Sofa Murphy bed? When the bed is closed, you can use the sofa in front of the cabinet to watch TV, read a book, chat with friends or hang out as a family. Hosting overnight guests? No problem! All you need to do is remove the cushions and fold the bed onto the base of the sofa. It’s that easy!
Do you work from home and need a multipurpose solution for your space? If so, you should certainly consider a Murphy bed with a desk. Bestar has two Murphy bed models: one with a retractable desk that folds into an adjacent storage unit, and another with a flip-down desktop attached to the front of the cabinet.
You’ll have ample space to work comfortably at the desk at any time. When you want to open the bed, just clear the desk, fold it away, and pull the bed down. So convenient!
If you aren’t quite sure what type of Murphy bed you want, you can always opt for a simple model and add extra storage units as needed. You can choose a matching closet organizer, storage unit or wardrobe from the same collection as your Murphy bed to create a cohesive look.
Ensure Optimal Comfort
Once you’ve chosen your Murphy bed, the next step is to find the right mattress for it. Bestar Murphy beds can accommodate most standard size mattresses, so you can choose a mattress from your preferred retailer. Just be sure to check Bestar’s requirements in terms of mattress weight and thickness. What’s more, all Bestar Murphy beds come with Euroslat mattress support to ensure optimal comfort for the sleeper.
Make the Room Cozy and Inviting
Finally, the last step is to make the space as inviting and comfortable as possible. Add soft sheets, a beautiful comforter, fluffy pillows and a cozy throw blanket on the bed to complete your guest space. What’s more, you can even leave thin sheets on the bed when folded away, but heavy bedding needs to be removed to ensure proper closure.
If you want to make the space truly-guest ready, why not place a basket of snacks or a bouquet of fresh flowers (or a plant!) in the room for your guests to enjoy? They’ll certainly appreciate the kind gesture!
To personalize the space, you can hang your favorite artwork on the walls, string fairy lights around the room, install stylish curtains on the windows, or add a fluffy rug in the middle of the space. The goal is to make the room feel welcoming and comfortable for you and your overnight guests.
With a versatile Murphy bed, you’ll have a practical and convenient guest space anywhere in your home!
