Bed roll out

[trish2]

Hi all: 
Saw this interesting way to provide a bed in a small house  I'm sure many of us have seen at least one of the "Tiny House' shows, most of which provide a loft for sleeping space.  For those of us who are not liking to climb down a ladder in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, this is an interesting alternative.      It might also be useful in some of the small houses built by those who use this web site; possibly as an extra 'guest room"?

That's rather brilliant. Thanks!

That is nice!  Along the same line are the various size Murphy beds that Costco is now selling. A queen with everything just over $1,000 and the steel mechanism is on Amazon for $ 400 or so with all the wood plans to build the 18" box that it sits in against the wall.  We just installed one and I will add a pix when I get some time.

Here is a link to the wall bed kit with plans

Here is the Costco complete bed. They have sales now and then that take the price down $300.

The Costco sold models are the best mechanism and if I did this again I would search it out. It is a much stronger design than the Amazon kit. The down side is the costco is particle board and would really be easy to build with some decent wood.
