Are you shopping for a Murphy Bed, but don't know where to start and what to look for? Here is our shopping
guide to help you start and answer all your questions along the way. The following tips will make your shopping
experience with BredaBeds as smooth as it can be.
Available space
We suggest you start with the available space you have. Depending on the size of your room you can choose the size
of the bed. Lots of people want a larger bed, but they might not have space for it. Eventually, you get a
crowded-looking room and unpleasant results. This leads us to our next topic.
Bed orientation
Horizontal vs Vertical Bed Orientation
BredaBeds offers horizontal and vertical Murphy Beds. At first, it may seem like it is just a matter of
personal taste and design, but there is more to it. Thus, a horizontal bed is better for living spaces with
lower ceilings and narrower rooms. Meanwhile, a vertical bed would be more comfortable for bigger spaces and
larger bed sizes with multiple occupants.
Hutch options
There are a variety of Murphy Bed options available, allowing you to customize your Murphy Bed just the way you
want it. One available option is a hutch. You can choose one hutch, two hutches, a top hutch (which is available
only on horizontal Murphy Bed), or no hutches at all. So, mostly it comes down to your preferences and the space
available.
Bed collections
Compare Bed Collections
Our website presents three elegant collections - Urban, Metropolitan, and Penthouse collections. Probably your
next question would be how different they are. Mostly it comes down to the door styles and hutch configurations.
The Urban collection has
a simple door face look and would work great for the modern and contemporary interiors. The Urban bed is only
available with open shelving, which means there are no doors on the hutch. So, if you want a simple and clean
look then an Urban bed is your perfect bed!
The Metropolitan
the collection has raised panel door faces, which may look nice with traditional styles. It has drawers, pull-out
night shelves and hutch doors are available. If you prefer more of an extravagant look, then the Metropolitan model
would work great for you.
The Penthouse is our
designer collection that gears towards a more contemporary style. It has faux drawers on the bed face panels,
which creates a modern and intricate look. Penthouse beds, just like the Metropolitan Murphy Beds have hutch
doors available, but in addition, it has a “hidden pull-out night shelf” and its hutches are extra deep for
hanging clothes, which can be used as a mini closet. What can be cozier than to have a warm robe right by your
bed, when you wake up in one of those chilly winter mornings?
Colors
Request Swatches
BredaBeds offers a variety of different colors for different tastes, so you have a great selection and can find
the best color just for your room. Just recently we have added two new colors - Element Alder and Solar Oak.
Thereby, we offer 10 colors for our Urban and Metropolitan collections and 13 colors for the Penthouse
collection. We are all familiar with difficulties in choosing the color that we want online, due to different
brightness and contrast on each computer screen. That is the main reason why the same color may look
different from the actual bed color. We are trying to make our clients' shopping experience as comfortable as we
can, so we came up with a new feature, where you only need to fill out a sample request form and we will send it
to you, typically, the next business day. Thus, you can choose your bed color with confidence and avoid an
unpleasant surprise. BredaBeds wants to make sure that you are happy with your shopping experience on our
website and your BredaBeds purchase.
Hardware finish
Hardware finish options
This section refers to the color of the bed handles and optional drawer/cabinet pulls. We offer 3 finishes -
Chrome, Brushed Nickel, and Black. All the colors are listed from the lightest to the darkest shade. We give that
option, so that you can try to match your existing furniture and some hardware finishes you may already have.
Also, some finishes work better with certain colors and it helps to complete the look of your room.
By now, you should have made all the right decisions on your perfect Murphy Bed, which you can fully enjoy and
get the desired look for your room.
