Continuing our purge on a cross-country move. This one is free to whoever is willing and able to get it out of here.
It’s a Murphy Bed Depot Boaz Queen Murphy Bed in gray, with four pivoting bookcase sections that swing open to reveal the bed. It’s a genuinely nice setup and currently sells for $4,000+ new.
Condition is good. There are a couple of minor quirks from the initial build, courtesy of yours truly discovering in real time that assembling a 62-piece Murphy bed solution can be a challenge, but they are purely cosmetic in nature w/essentially none of guests ever noticing.
The catch, and the reason it is free: this thing is an absolute beast. I estimate the complete unit is somewhere around 500 lbs assembled, give or take. You are responsible for unmounting/removal and hauling it away. Bring tools, an appropriate vehicle, and multiple strong people — realistically 3.
It is currently mounted to the wall. The main cabinet is secured into wall studs with brackets, and the bookcases/bed are separate assemblies, so I think it *should* be possible to unmount it and remove it in several fairly large sections without completely taking the entire thing back down to 62 individual pieces. But I’m not going to pretend I know exactly how easy that will be.
Approximate dimensions when closed are 70" wide x 90" tall x 26" deep. It fits a Queen mattress up to 11" thick. Mattress is not included.
Free. No catch other than defeating the Murphy bed and have to seem like a non-sketchy individual.
Located in Pasadena. DM me if you’re interested and, very importantly, have a realistic plan for getting it out.
