No wall mounting

I cannot (or will not) bolt into the wall.

A cabinet bed stands on the floor like a low chest. The mattress folds in thirds inside it — no studs, no anchors, no landlord conversation.

Home office by day

The room is a workspace that has to become a bedroom at night.

A wall bed with a desk keeps the desk and shelves up during the day. The mattress folds down over them at night, so nothing has to be cleared off the surface.

Studio or den

The living space also has to sleep guests.

A sofa wall bed hides a real mattress behind the couch. The sofa lives on the floor; the bed folds up into the wall unit above it.

Low ceiling or short wall

The wall or ceiling cannot take a tall vertical queen.

A horizontal wall bed swings sideways, and a cabinet bed folds down from a low chest. Both dodge the ceiling arc a vertical queen needs.

Kids or shared guest room

The room needs two beds without two floor footprints.

A dual twin wall bed stacks two twin frames into one wall, so the floor is clear for a desk, a rug, or a play area during the day.

Want a mattress in the box

I do not want to source a mattress separately.

These beds ship with the mattress in the box. Cabinet beds include a tri-fold because the mattress has to fold with the frame; the AFI desk bed includes a memory foam.
