Murphy beds are one of the best options for those who have limited space. They fold up into the wall cabinet and disappear into the wall. Some Murphy beds feature sofas or desks that flip into place when the Murphy bed mattress is folded up into the wall. That means your Murphy bed can have a dual purpose. It’s a bed at night and another piece of furniture during the day.
However, Murphy beds aren’t the only space savers around. You also have sofa beds that pull out from underneath the couch cushions. Modular sleeper sofas can go from sectional couches to beds in a matter of seconds. And futons fold out to become flat beds and fold in to revert to standard couches.
Daybeds are another option because you can sleep on them at night and sit on them during the day. You just have to rearrange your pillows. However, all of these options still take up floor space in your room during the day, while Murphy beds do not. So if you want a bed that turns into an empty room when folded, Murphy beds are your best choice.
