At first glance, this type of furniture has only positive aspects. However, before making a choice, you should consider some disadvantages:
- relatively high cost - due to the high cost of high-quality materials and accessories (cheap models use low-quality raw materials and fasteners, which can adversely affect the reliability of the system);
- location requirements - transformer models are allowed to be placed exclusively along the main wall so that it can hold the weight of the structure during operation;
- limited access to a sleeping place - if you want to relax, the bed needs to be laid out and assembled every time to save space.
For every disadvantage you can find in contrast to an undeniable advantage. For example, the transformer system itself will not be cheap.

If you calculate the cost of each position, it turns out that the built-in bed is a very practical and financially profitable option.

back to index ↑Types of transforming beds depending on the location of the sleeping surface
There are two main types:
horizontal – the working mechanism is located on the long side;
vertical structures – fastening is located on the lower edge of the box.
The first type is used when the length of the main wall is sufficient to place the bed along it. It should be remembered that the size of the outer box is slightly larger than the sleeping surface itself, which it accommodates.

All models of built-in wardrobe beds are divided into:
- single (narrow, one and a half);

- processed wooden array;
- MDF board (at least 20 mm thick);
- plywood sheets (10 mm);
- loops;
- fastening systems;

The inner box is assembled from wooden boards. They are placed around the perimeter and fastened with glue, screws, self-tapping screws. The substrate under the orthopedic base can consist of two parts - a frame and a solid surface. However, many models are equipped only with a wooden frame. This approach allows you to reduce the weight of the internal part, reduce the load on the stationary box and fastening mechanisms.
