Architect Onal Kothari tells you about the factors to keep in mind before you purchase a murphy bed.

Lift mechanism: Murphy bed requires a little upper body strength to open and close. Depending on the age and health benefits of the user, you can purchase a murphy bed of your choice namely, piston lift murphy beds and spring lift murphy bed.
Vertical or horizontal murphy beds: Vertical murphy bed designs are good for room with high ceilings whereas horizontal murphy beds are ideal for tight spaces.
Freestanding vs built-in: Freestanding could be a great buy for renters. It is free from any wall mounting, whereas a built-in murphy bed design is a permanent solution for your own space.
Revolving option: From daytime library to midnight relaxation, revolving murphy bed is another innovative option. It is not limited to movies anymore.
Bonus murphy beds: Murphy beds offer a great relaxation zone for animals. This can be super space savvy, easy to maintain and de-clutter option for a home with animals.
