First, you don't just push, you must lift the bed upright.

I had a lovely Murphy bed in my first apartment. It had an iron headboard and foot board and lifted and swiveled into a very large closet. I remember it and the guests who shared it with me fondly.

It was similar to this one.

Fuck OP.

I have questions:

Do you fold up your top sheet and bedcover? What do you do with the pillows? Do your sheet air out properly in a closet? Are you supposed to tuck everything in so that it stays made when itā€™s vertical? How do you keep your cat/dog/stoat/rhino out of the bed when you put it up?

R3, you tuck everything in. I put my pillow on a shelf in the closet. The closet was very large, more like a small room or today's walk in closets.

In my second apartment there was also a closet for a murphy bed but the bed was long gone. It was also the size of a large walk in closet with a small window and space for a bureau.

Funny, I was just thinking about those apartments in San Francisco this week, and about the large closets. Both buildings were from the 1940s or before, were spacious with hardwood floors, and had period detail.

R2 It looks like something that would be very useful today.

R2 -- I had a Murphy bed exactly like that in a 1930's efficiency apt in West Hollywood. Very comfortable and easy to operate, and that style makes the room look so much nicer than the newer ones that just fold down from a big awkward armoire type piece of furniture.

I don't understand the purpose/advantage of the swivel feature.

[quote] 1930's efficiency apt

I hadn't heard of that expression before.

I've googled and it says efficiency apartments are smaller than studio apartments.

R8 so the bed can come through a regular sized closet door instead of the bed-sized double door that a Murphey that simply drops down needs - it is visually better hidden when closed.

Iā€™d want the ā€œDown With Loveā€ electronic version and, yeah, Iā€™d probably accidentally push the button...ā€Your Wifeā€™s Home!ā€ And neither of us is married type of thing.

YES!

I am wary

[quote] If not secured or used properly, a Murphy bed can collapse on the operator. A 1945 court case in Illinois found that a tenant assumed the risk of injury from a wall bed installed in a rented inn room. In 1982, a drunk man suffocated inside a closed Murphy bed, and two women were entrapped and suffocated by an improperly installed wall bed in 2005. A 2014 lawsuit alleged that a defective Murphy bed led to the death of a Staten Island man.
