Wow! I am impressed! Not only with the murphy bed, but with myself because I put it together on my own.The 3 boxes arrived on a Monday and it was finished on Tuesday.Before the bed arrived I went to the website and thoroughly familiarized myself with what it would take to put it together. The directions I found online do indicate you will need to purchase bolts to attach it to your wall. I already had them on hand in the right size. The reason they don't come with the bed is because everyone's type of wall could be different: brick, metal studs, wood studs or concrete. I admit that I am a fairly experienced DIYer and I like doing this kind of product assembly. Also, everything was securely packaged; no missing parts and no damage to any of bed sections.
