Space Liberation at Its Finest

When living in a small space, you need furniture that can be adapted to your specific needs. Thanks to the Murphy bed's compact design, you'll have the freedom to use your space for anything and everything!

Bestar Murphy beds come with a dual-piston mechanism designed to make folding the bed up and down easy, without any heaving lifting. When the bed is folded away, the cabinet stands alone, giving you ample room to use the space for other activities. Enjoy having all the space you need to stretch your legs, spend time with your kids, do some yoga-the list goes on.

If you're looking for a multipurpose solution, why not opt for a Murphy bed with a desk? You can arrange the perfect space that serves both as an office and bedroom. During the day, the bed will be folded into the cabinet, so you can work efficiently at the desk. When you're ready to catch some shut eye, you need to clear the floor space, fold the desk and pull the bed down. See how easy?

Studio Apartments Reimagined

Living in a studio apartment can feel sometimes cumbersome, especially if you don't have the right furniture for your space. Thankfully, with a Murphy bed, you'll have plenty of room for your activities during the day, while still having a comfortable place to sleep at night.

A great solution for a studio apartment is a sofa Murphy bed. During the day, you can lounge on the sofa with friends and family, and at night, you'll have a comfy bed to enjoy some well-deserved rest. When you want to use the bed, remove the cushions from the couch and fold the bed onto the base of the sofa. Psst! Consider placing the cushions under the bed when folded down to keep your space clutter-free.

Like in any small space, staying organized and finding room for your belongings is crucial. Luckily, Bestar has Murphy beds with shelving units to keep all your items close by. Some units come with adjustable shelves, drawers, and even hanging rods for your clothes, bedding and more. You can even opt for a model with doors to conceal your items when guests are over. If you want to add storage to your Murphy bed later on, you can choose cabinets from the same collection as your bed to create a cohesive space.

Hosting Without Hassle

Do you enjoy hosting overnight guests but don't quite have the space for a guest room? Look no further than a Murphy bed!

Never know when an overnight guest might pop by? No worries! Thanks to the bed's dual-piston mechanism, you can fold up and down seamlessly, so you can accommodate guests at a moment's notice. You can even leave thin sheets on the bed when folded away for added convenience and practicality. However, it's important to remove thick bedding and pillows from the bed to ensure proper closure. Bestar also has Murphy beds with one or two storage cabinets, so you can keep items such as sheets, pillows, blankets, and towels on hand for your guests.

For even more versatility, why not consider a Murphy bed with a desk? Bestar has models with a fold-down desktop and others with a retractable desk, so you can choose the right fit for your needs. When you want to use the bed, all you need to do is fold the desk, clear the floor space and pull the bed down. During the day, you'll have an ergonomic desk to work at and at night, your guests will have a beautiful bed to sleep in. It's so convenient!
