5 Things To Think Of Before Buying a Murphy Bed

Apr 24, 2022 | Interior Design, Wallbed, Wallbed Tips

A murphy bed is one of the best ways to optimize space in your home, apartment, or studio. More than ever, people are opting for a wallbed to replace a regular bed in their homes. Regardless of the reasons for the switch, there are many things to consider before buying a murphy bed!

Before ordering a new wallbed, here are 7 pieces of advice or questions you should ask yourself!

1. Develop a Wallbed Budget

Depending on your needs, wallbeds come in a variety of sizes and price points! Before getting a murphy bed, the first thing you should do is determine your budget and how much you are willing to spend on the furniture. If you have a smaller budget, you can select a more simple murphy bed without additional customizations or cabinets. If you would like to go all out for your furniture, Wallbeds Pasadena can fully build your murphy bed out with a variety of customizations!

Additionally, you can fit your murphy bed to serve multiple functions. With a new wall bed, you can opt to add bookshelves, a table, or other special features. All of this can be done by speaking to a sales rep at Wallbeds n More Pasadena.

2. Select and Prepare Your Space

The most important thing you should do before buying a murphy bed is getting a space ready for the new furniture. It is important to find a room that will fit the bed, and measure the space to see how big or small you can go with a wallbed!

Taking note of the available walls you can mount the bed to is important as well. Lastly, our beds come in many finishes and paints! Take pictures of your current wall color or existing furniture in your room to keep in mind while picking out a new wallbed. We can find a finish, wood, or style that fits best with your current decor!

3. Find The Right Size Bed

At Wallbeds n More Pasadena, our murphy beds are available in multiple sizes! We offer wall beds in traditional Twin, XL Twin, Full, and Queen sizes. Each murphy bed model has its own selection of sizes and is not available in every option. Regardless we have a large selection of choices so you’ll easily find the right bed in the right size for you.

As mentioned in Step 2, making sure you have measured your room and taken account of your available space is vital to know what size bed will fit best in the room you are choosing to optimize.

4. Finding a Mattress and Bedding

At Wallbeds n More Pasadena, our Murphy beds can work with many mattresses! Regardless if you would like to use your existing mattress or bedding or possibly buy something new, we have options. Murphy beds do not have to be the uncomfortable fold-away beds of the past. The mattresses we have in store come in different levels of firmness, softness, and materials.

Another great thing about wallbeds is they do not have to be made every time you unfold the bed! Your bedding can be on the mattress when you fold up and down the bed, so there is no specific comforter or sheet style that you have to select. When you purchase a new wallbed, you have endless bedding and mattress possibilities!

5. Murphy Bed Delivery and Installation

At Wallbeds n More Pasadena, our murphy bed delivery is simple, straightforward, and stress-free. It doesn’t matter which model you select, our delivery team will have it arrive at your home in a timely manner. Our furniture arrives ready to use, so you simply have to show the install team what room you would like the wallbed in. In little time, your wallbed is installed with no assembly, hard work, or complicated directions for you to follows.

Lastly, we assure the murphy bed will be installed safely. The installation experts build the hidden bed and secure it to the wall using three to four wall studs, ensuring its safety. All of our wallbed models are notched for 6-inch or fewer baseboards. If you are installing new carpet, tile, or wood flooring, the flooring must be installed before delivery of your new Murphy bed.
