Conclusion
Murphy beds bring the comfort of a residential bed with the convenience that it folds away to save space. With limited room inside a camper already, this can be a great option when looking at different RV layouts.
Reasons to have a murphy bed in an RV:
- Saves time and can be folded up and down with the sheets on them in comparison to a dinette bed that has to be remade each day.
- More open space that doesn’t limit an area to be dedicated only to a bed/offers multifunctional use.
- Simple to operate with a single hinge or premium motor.
Of course, it’s important to consider what size and type of RV you prefer, and what camper to choose from that’s within your budget. No matter which one you pick, each is sure to offer you a better living and sleeping experience on your next adventure.
