have a friend who did not like their Murphy bed, because in order to open it, and have other stuff in room for den, had to shove most of the large furniture pieces out of the way to open it. Most of the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms are not real large here. They sold theirs. You do see them for sale both on TOTV and in the paper, but then again, there are those who buy them as well.

Have another friend who did put a Murphy bed in her sewing room, and that seems to work, because she doesn't have den furniture in it as well. Easier to move a cutting table (that folds) and ironing board when guests visit.

I'll be interested to see other posts. We rearranged our main guest room, with a queen bed, which is also my sewing room, and that seems to work better. We have a queen-size airbed, which is one of the high ones, and that is fairly comfortable. We set that up in the 3rd bedroom, which just has furniture along the walls (desk, bookshelves, music practice area) when needed.

Just put kids usually on the floor. They think that's fun (probably until they are teenagers). Sometimes we put them to bed in the beds and move them when the adults go to bed. Have put the pack n play in the walk-in closet.
