Review: Very well engineered and works exactly as advertised. - This was a fun project that allowed us to turn a grown kid's bedroom into a home office that accommodates guests. The biggest lesson I learned from this is you MUST "read and follow the directions" which is not easy for me because I tend to grab the cut-sheet and go. But when it says to read the plans AND watch the video, it's critical advice since I found details missing in the plans that were included in the video and vice versa. Sometimes the order of steps is different in the plans and the video shows why the order of steps is important. You really need both plans and video and lots of attention to detail to make sure the hardware is installed exactly where it needs to be. I found it easiest to convert the DVD to video on my iPad and keep it handy in the workshop. PROS: Easy to follow plans when accompanied by video. High quality hardware that installs easily if plans are followed. Operates smoothly and looks great! Lots of options to customize. CONS: One shortfall of the kit is the fact it shows options without providing any details or dimensions. For instance, you can build decorative picture frames for the plywood front to simulate doors and drawers. But you must leave a 1/2 to 3/4" gap between the bottom of the picture frame and the baseboard trim or it will bind when opening. MODIFICATIONS: I found that as long as strict attention was paid to the mechanical portions, you can extend vertical supports to create a taller wall unit with bookcase. Just ensure you retain a header that is firmly attached to wall studs. We added a light bridge/shelf and installed the Rockler Murphy Bed Lighting Kit that is available on their website, but not on desertcart for some reason. There is a 12" and 60 lb limit on mattresses and after consulting with Create-a-bed folks, I learned the horizontal bed is much more forgiving on weight when the mattress is hinged on longitudinal axis vs. the traditional vertical Murphy bed. We used a 78 lb, hybrid inner-spring/memory foam mattress that is VERY comfortable, reasonably priced, and works perfectly in the horizontal bed. I am attaching a few photos that show the basic bed I built. Missing is the matching bookcase and crown molding that ties the two together, but you'll get the idea. (The mattress looks a little lumpy in the picture because it just came out of the packaging and is still inflating. After a few hours, it grew to a full 12" pillow-top and looks great!) ## Features - TIME TESTED: Our kits have stood the test of time for over 35 years.

Does one need a table saw?** A: For a basic installation, which is the one that I made, you need 4 sheets of 3/4" X 4' X 8' and 2 sheets of 1/4" X 4' X 8'. Table saw is not needed but pretty useful. I went to Home Depot and they cut 80% of the pieces needed, they don't cut anything under 12 inches. I had to cut the other pieces with a table saw, very useful since the cuts were really straight. **Q: when finished, approximately how far does the cabinet stick out from the wall? (i.e.: how deep is it?)** A: 16", per the instructions. However, most people these days have pillow-top mattresses, which the instructions do not account for. You would have to modify the cut list by adding about 2" of width to the vertical panels to fit most pillow-top mattresses. This would make the murphy cabinet protrude about 18". Doing so would add any additional sheet of ply to the cut list the hardware manufacturer provides-- for budgeting purposes. **Q: How tall are the legs?** A: From the floor to the bottom of the bed it is 6" from the floor to the board the mattress sits on is 91/2" , we used a 14" thick mattress on ours and from the floor to the top of the mattress it is 22" . Hope this is a help to you. The bed is quite a chore to build but we really like it **Q: Can i use this to make a twin xl bed and what weight can this support up too?** A: No you can not as it is. You can call the company directly, tell them what you are planning and they will exchange the pistons and give you new directions. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ hardware looks good and detailed instructions- queen *by R***G on February 23, 2026* good bed parts and very detailed instructions. took a while to cut, sand, stain and put together but functions well and seems sturdy. made bed out of oak and was about $500 in wood costs. good space saving alternative for queen size bed instead of having air mattress. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very well engineered and works exactly as advertised. *by D***E on December 29, 2016* This was a fun project that allowed us to turn a grown kid's bedroom into a home office that accommodates guests.

The instruction manual was very detailed and easy to follow, given the scope of the project (I would consider myself intermediate in skill). I love that I was able to use a high quality mattress once it was finished. It was critical to have a table saw. I used red oak and oak plywood and was able to stain it with a walnut wood stain and it turned out so nice. I added some shelving above it along with some trim boards to the face and it looks beautiful. So happy with this product. The build of the Murphy bed too about 3 days (1st day was purchase of materials and cutting each piece. The next day was the majority of construction. Another several days to finish up, paint, stain, etc). Worth every penny and every minute invested. ## Frequently Bought Together - Create-A-Bed Full Size Deluxe Murphy Bed Kit, Horizontal - NECAMOCU Edge Banding Trimmer - 2025 Upgraded Mini Edge Band Trimmer & Cutter, Stainless Steel Blade Veneer Edge Trimmer for Woodworking, Durable Edgebanding Trimming Tool for Wood, Veneer, PVC, ABS - O'SKOOL Display Veneer Edge Banding Sealing Iron --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/4778769-create-a-bed-full-size-deluxe-murphy-bed-kit-horizontal](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/4778769-create-a-bed-full-size-deluxe-murphy-bed-kit-horizontal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
