Small Spaces Solution: Concealed Hideaway Bed

This is a great concealed bed that is step beyond the technology of the Murphy bed. This hideaway bed folds up into a wall unit that looks like a normal entertainment center.

For people living in small spaces like lofts or tiny apartments, this type of product has a lot of appeal. Approximate price: $7,000.

Chair, ready to move
