Review on πŸ›οΈ High-Quality White Murphy Bed DIY Kit: Happybuy's Heavy-Duty Wall Springs Mechanism for King/Queen Beds (Vertical Mounting Support Hardware) by Daniela Velasquez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Sturdy and well built, not easy to install

Bought for about 1/3 the price of a branded Murphy bed set. I liked that it doesn't require gas struts and uses heavy duty springs to raise/lower the heavy bed. As many have commented on this style set the instructions are very poor but the picture gives a better idea of how to do it. YouTube now has a video or two about it. So that helps too. The biggest problem is installing the bed spring kit. Placement is extremely important to ensure the bed frame fits right into the wall frame. I only leaned 2mm, and that increased to a 1/4 incline at the far end (top) of the bed frame. Even after checking the measurements three times before drilling, my walls weren't square at all. There's no easy way to make small adjustments to the jigs, and re-drilling holes really kills a project. I chose not to use the included legs and instead used a wooden floating shelf. The photos show my build and I only need the final front fairing and mattress (custom made).

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Infinitely Slow
