5 Reasons Why a Costco or Wayfair Wall Bed is Right For Me
Intro
We understand there is a time when buying a wall bed from Costco (or Wayfair) is the right decision for you, instead of purchasing from Murphy Beds Manitoba. Here are a 5 reasons why a Costco or Wayfair wall bed is right for you!
1. Budget & Quality
Costco wall beds could likely cost you half as much as buying a local, custom Murphy bed from Murphy Beds Manitoba. We understand that not everyone is in the stage of life or have the finances to make the investment in a custom, quality Murphy wall bed. Wall beds you find online are usually made with cheaper materials sourced over seas, which provide a more cost-effective solution. When you aren't looking for durability or longevity, you may find what serves your needs just fine at Costco or Wayfair.
Our authentic Murphy beds are genuinely custom built, made-to-order, using the highest quality, Canadian-made materials. This means you can design a Murphy bed that fits your decor and has the features you want and need - such as cabinetry/storage, LED lighting, power and charging stations, special hardware, and the list goes on.

Need proof?
Our Murphy hardware comes standard with a 25-year warranty and a weight capacity rating of up to 1,700 lbs.
Need lifetime warranty? No problem, our aluminum Murphy hardware comes with a lifetime warranty, plus an increased weight capacity of up to 2,000 lbs. so you can sleep easy, knowing you're investing in a bed that will stand the test of time, for generations to come.
Although other brands might use the label of "Murphy bed", they are more than likely using generic, cheaper hardware, without the decades of field testing required to assure quality. Genuine Murphy bed hardware is a specific brand with a history of quality and excellence. We prioritize durability and longevity, ensuring each Murphy wall bed is built for future generations to enjoy.
2. Purchasing Process
You might not be interested in working one-on-one with a sales person, or having to visit a showroom to make decisions about a made-to-order Murphy bed. Buying a wall bed online can save you this potential hassle.
Murphy Beds Manitoba has a local showroom and sales staff to assist in the custom Murphy bed buying process. This can take more time out of your busy schedule and you might not want to work with someone in person.
3. Time Constraints
Beds from Costco and Wayfair are typically pre-made, packed and ready to ship. If you're not interested in customizing your bed, you can likely get a bed quicker this way.
Ordering a custom, made-to-order bed from Murphy Beds Manitoba will typically be ready for delivery and installation in about 3 weeks. That being said, we do occasionally have a few overstock or used Murphy beds that might suit your needs, would be available much quicker, and at a discount from a made-to-order Murphy bed.
4. Installation
We get that you might be hands-on, eager to solve problems, willing to take on a project to learn something new, or have someone who can do this for you. A wall bed from Costco, Wayfair, etc. could be the right choice for you then, as they will not have installation services available.
We at Murphy Beds Manitoba offer comprehensive, professional installation, as an option with the purchase of our Murphy Beds. Our experienced cabinet installers are adaptable and always find a way to make your bed install happen, even if they're thrown a "curve ball". Installation would include safely delivering your Murphy Bed and storage cabinets (if applicable), and working with you on deciding the best placement for the bed. We'll install the bed, cabinets, lighting and accessories, and make any adjustments like cutting out wire grommets to access wall outlets or anything else required. Finally, we'll walk through the basics with you and things to keep in mind for the best Murphy bed experience.
The best part? We'll leave you with a neat and tidy space, with no need to clean up a mess. If you want a hands-off approach, leave it to Murphy Beds Manitoba.
5. Returns
The return process is a very important thing to keep in mind when ordering your bed online. If the bed purchase wasn't the right decision, you will likely have the ability to return your bed when ordering it online through Costco or Wayfair.
Because our Murphy beds are made-to-order, it's not necessarily as easy to return. That said, because you're buying a custom bed and have fully thought through this decision, it's not typical that our customers change their minds after they've put down the deposit. Because we understand that life happens, we'll try to accommodate you the best we can.
Conclusion
These are just a few reasons why a wall bed from an online, big-box retailer like Costco or Wayfair might serve your needs better than one of our custom Murphy beds.
In the end, a wall bed from Costco, Wayfair, etc. will come with some advantages over a custom bed from Murphy Beds Manitoba and we know that "custom" comes with a price tag.
We hope that makes your decision making a bit easier and more informed!
