Perfect solution

We converted a guest room space in our home into a pool room but still wanted more than an air mattress for guests. In order to create a sleeping area and not interfere with the pool table, we purchased the Night and Day Furniture Orion Twin Murphy Cabinet Bed. It is the perfect solution. The assembly was clearly guided and the piece is lovely.
I would highly recommend this cabinet bed.

Pleased

We were happy to receive our order of the Night and Day Furniture Queen Murphy Cabinet Bed Cube. We purchased the white glove service to have it brought in and put together since my husband's back has been acting up. The delivery went smooth, and they graciously removed their shoes upon request (I never would have picked out beige carpet). The only issue we had, there were two labels on the front where it clearly states, "This rail faces toward the back" and the delivery staff said it was mislabeled meaning those labels should have been on the other side so you never would have seen them. They were really stuck on. We purchased Goo Off which did remove the labels and the sticky substance, but I'm not sure, maybe from time and storage you can still see where the labels were. Too bad they weren't labeled on the back.

Great size planter

This is a sturdy well built planter! It has a removable inside lightweight liner and drainage hole in bottom and also comes preassembled. Love that it can be left outside all year round since it is heavy once filled with soil. This planter can be put anywhere in your yard and adds a pop of color!

Love the gliders!

I've been looking for a glider for a couple of years
These are beautiful and comfortable! Not cheap but worth it.

Excellent customer service!

We are very pleased with our Murphy cabinet bed cube. All communication with Archic Furniture has been positive and prompt. The bed is very sturdy, and very attractive! The cabinet had very clear instructions for assembly. We would definitely purchase from this Archic Furniture again should the need arise. We are not full time in our new home yet so are unable to provide a photo. Thank you
