Murphy beds can be tricky. Their diverse designs often come with unique mattress requirements. Some have maximum weight limits while others restrict mattress thickness. Certain models even need a hinged, bi-fold, or tri-fold mattress to operate correctly. That’s where the right Murphy bed mattress, and the right maker, makes all the difference.

Shop Our Most Popular Murphy Mattress Models
Murphy beds are designed to work with standard mattresses, but with one key difference: the mattress thickness must fit inside the Murphy bed frame or cabinet. Most models perform best with a mattress under 12 inches tall for smooth operation and proper closure. That said, not every Murphy bed model will suit every situation. Some designs require special weight limits, hinge flexibility, or unique dimensions, and in those cases, we can create a fully custom Murphy bed mattress to meet your exact requirements.
We make it simple. Choose from our most popular models below, each handcrafted to deliver the perfect balance of comfort, durability, and lasting sleep quality. If your Murphy bed requires a specific size, shape, or build, request a custom quote, we’ll craft the perfect fit for your space.

Murphy Mattress Materials & Construction Options
Every Murphy bed mattress we build starts with a simple promise: the finest materials, handcrafted precision, and the perfect balance of comfort and functionality. Unlike mass-produced imports, our mattresses are handmade in Wisconsin using durable, naturally sourced components that perform beautifully in wall-bed systems.
Because Murphy beds operate differently than standard frames, we pay special attention to weight, flexibility, and airflow, ensuring every mattress folds smoothly, fits properly, and lasts for years. From eco-friendly foams to organic textiles, every layer is designed to deliver comfortable, safe, and space-saving sleep.
Gel Memory Foam
Our CertiPUR-US® certified gel memory foam Murphy mattresses contour to your body while keeping you cool with breathable cotton covers. Multiple foam layers minimize motion transfer and relieve pressure points, making this option ideal for side sleepers and lightweight Murphy frames.
Natural Latex
Crafted with premium Talalay latex, these eco-friendly Murphy bed mattresses are buoyant, breathable, and exceptionally durable. The open-cell design and natural resilience make them easy to lift and fold, while organic cotton and wool layers regulate temperature and add plush comfort.
Innerspring
Our innerspring Murphy mattresses feature the Luxcore Spring Unit System, made with 100% U.S.-recycled steel. This traditional design sleeps up to 28% cooler than foam, provides edge-to-edge support, and delivers a stable, responsive feel, perfect for Murphy beds that need consistent structure and reliable firmness.
Hybrid
Hybrids combine the best of both worlds: supportive coils for breathability and foam or latex layers for contouring comfort. The medium-firm, adaptive feel suits all sleep positions and offers a balanced weight that works beautifully in both vertical and horizontal Murphy bed configurations.

Murphy Bed FAQs
Have questions about our Murphy Bed mattresses? Count on us to help you in any way we can.
What is the difference between a wall bed and a Murphy bed?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A “Murphy bed” is a brand name that has become so well-known that it’s now used generically for wall beds. Both describe a bed that folds vertically into a cabinet, saving floor space. We’ve built countless custom mattresses, so regardless of what you call it, we’ll ensure you get a perfect fit and comfortable sleep experience.
Can you put any mattress on a Murphy bed?
Not quite. A Murphy bed requires a mattress with the right thickness, weight, and flexibility. Too thick, and it won’t close properly. Too heavy, and it may strain the mechanism. Most frames are designed for mattresses that are 12 inches or less. That’s why we handcraft Murphy-compatible mattresses in any size or type, balancing comfort with a proper fit.
Can I sleep on a Murphy bed every night?
Absolutely, if you have the right mattress. Many people think Murphy beds are just for guest rooms, but with the proper build, they’re perfect for nightly use. We’ve made Murphy mattresses for studio apartments and home offices where they serve as the main bed with no compromises on comfort or durability.
Does a Murphy bed have to be anchored to the wall?
Most Murphy beds are anchored for stability and safety. Some newer designs can be attached to the floor instead, but wall anchoring remains the industry standard. The key is ensuring the frame is installed correctly so that the mattress size and weight are supported safely.
What is the lifespan of a Murphy bed?
The frame itself can last decades with proper care. The new mattress you put in it will vary based on the type of mattress, how often you use it, and the quality of the materials used to construct the mattress. Use our mattress lifespan calculator to estimate how long your mattress is likely to last.
What are the hazards of Murphy beds?
Older Murphy beds earned a reputation for being unsafe, but modern Murphy wall beds are built with secure locking mechanisms and counterbalanced frames. The main risks come from poor installation or using a mattress that’s too heavy. We help reduce those risks by building mattresses to your frame’s specifications so they open and close smoothly.
What’s more comfortable, a sleeper sofa or a Murphy bed?
A Murphy bed, without question. Sleeper sofas often utilize thin, folding cushions with bars or gaps underneath, resulting in inadequate support and potential back pain. A Murphy bed features a real, handcrafted quality mattress, just like a traditional bedroom bed. That means better pressure relief, more firmness options, and a superior overall sleep quality.
Can you store the mattress in a Murphy bed?
Yes, that’s the entire point of the design. Your mattress stays secured inside the bed cabinet when the frame folds up. The key is choosing the best Murphy Bed mattress for your setup, ensuring the right weight and thickness to store safely without damaging the mechanism or the mattress itself. We’ve built mattresses for every kind of Murphy frame, and we’ll make sure yours fits perfectly.
