I won't lie, it took us a while, we number labelled as we identified every part to help us out.
I read instruction a few times, watched video a few times. It took us 4 evenings, 3 of us.
Yes we made mistakes mainly with back board n frame, think took frame apart 3 times as had them in wrong place. Springs were a devil realised had to remove back bit then turn it once springs in. Finally got it finished, it looks great n is very sturdy.
Advise you read instructures well, follow to the latter, do not try to cut corners, if you find you are getting frustrated regroup after a cuppa or a good night sleep. Well worth it though it is a bonding process, having to say if you think the other is wrong, re look at it make sure it's right.

If you would like to test the strength of your relationship, I recommend building this wall bed with your partner. Even as seasoned flatpack constructors, we were ill equipped to handle the 33 page nonsensical instruction manual this wall bed comes with. It took us 5 days to finally finish it, having to walk away to meditate or lie down in a dark room when the frustration got too much. I'm still giving it 4 stars, because it is without a doubt the most affordable option on the market and provided you have the patience to construct it correctly, is very secure, comfortable and stylish.

Delivery was prompt and the team were super helpful… yes it is a mission to put together, but spending time upfront to understand the parts it makes sense. Fits together really well and just take your time. Really great piece of furniture

What a great wall bed finally finished, had to get an installer to put it all together as I work 12 hour shifts, instructions were confusing but the installer managed, couple of tweeks but it's up and being used highly recommend to get a couple of helpers, it's so easy to open close, I would definitely recommend getting this one or other wall beds the mattress I bought elsewhere is a bit firm but I will get use to sleeping on it.

We need a perfect solution for our log cabin . This was just what we needed. It’s perfect for family when they want to stay over but out of the way so I have loads of space for my crafting
Lluis S.
Very happy with the delivery and customer services team as they responded on time. However the installation was very complicated and long, definitely more than the 4 hours suggested in the instructions! I believe with a video it would have been much easier...

Really comfy, looks like a big cupboard (as opposed to a horrible sofa bed) and really practical. We’re delighted!

So I bought this wall bed already knowing that the construction would be difficult based upon some of the reviews I'd read on the internet. Sure enough it is confusing however it is doo-able with a bit of trial and error - the construction is very much like a challenging Ikea project and it took me(on my own) about a day.
What I didn't reckon with was a total lack of instruction as to how to adjust the bed so that it fits squarely in its frame. That can only be done, it seems to me, before the springs are attched and the bed frame is not under tension. Now my bed rubs slightly on the bottom of the frame as you lift it up. Turning the adjustment screws seems to have no affect. I could remove the bed from the wall,release the springs and make the adjustment but quite frankly I can't be bothered so with a bit of sandpaper and candle wax I've managed to ease the problem somewhat.
Another gripe is the fact that the bed frame is made out of cheap and nasty chipboard - MDF or plywood would last much longer on an item which is subject to considerable wear and tear as the bed is lifted up and down. The savings in cost to the manufacturer are negligible by using an inferior material compared to the hassle and reputational damage this may cause at a later date. The screws, bolts etc come in 4 seperate plastic bags. Don't expect each bag to relate to a particular phase of the construction - that would be too logical for these manufacturers. For example 6 of the 4 plastic footpads that are attached at the beginning of the construction are in 1 bag, the other 2 in a completely different bag that contains items that are used at the end of the process(straps to hold down bedding). I like a challenge but I think that they are just having a laugh! Would I recommend it? Well now I think know how to put it together maybe. It's just the pathetic chipboard bed frame. So ask me in a year. It did cost £600.00 so surely we should be able to expect something a bit sturdier?

Great company to deal with, website easy to navigate to find what you want. Ordering was straight forward, they keep you informed on when your order has been dispatched, you get updates of time slot and a phone call from the delivery driver. The driver and drivers mate were very professional and polite and help full, well done. The bed went together well, but you do need help, it very well made.Couldn’t take pictures as husband is still decorating the room. Would use this company again.

The manual is not clear, very confusing, I had to reassemble.

We’re really impressed with the wall bed. It’s great quality for the price - sturdy, robust and looks good. It was a bit of a mission to build, and our only niggle is that the catch seems a bit flimsy and you could easily hurt your leg on it getting in and out of bed, but overall we’re very happy.
David B.
Very good quality, great price. Delivery was within expectation.
Do be patient putting it together as it will take time. Definitely recommend this product.
Gordon D.
Great design and well built.instructions could have been a bit better and stickers on all peices would have helped.overall very happy with it
Trudie M.
Excellent quality love it
Antonio M.
Great idea if you need to gain space. The quality looks good, I recommend an expert to build.
Only minus is the fact that they do not provide assembly service as it is a complicated one to make, and I had to spend £200 to assemble it.
Overall, good product.

Delivery was early because they saw the lights on. Delivered at 05:50 instead of 06:00. Excellent guys put boxes in lounge and pointed out which box had instructions. Opened box with instructions got my breakfast and read instructions.
I would recommend at least 2 people for assembly. Boxes and contents are very well made and very heavy.
Instructions say build in 4 hours, took us one day but we got spring adjustment wrong. Reset springs as per instructions and everything was perfect.
Only regret we did not order mattress at the same time as the bed.
Photo shows bed closed with protective covers on base of the bed.
This bed is very good, because of a deep skirting board we did not cut away at the bottom, but bed still fastened firmly to the wall with approx 50mm space between wall and bed. Base was up firm to skirting board and fastened using supplied wall bracket and raw bolts.
Excellent product highly recommended - I would just advise to purchase mattress at same time.
Moving on carpet is difficult but we used the hardboard packing strips under the bottom fittings and slowly slid the bed into position.

Is broken after 2 weeks it’s not worth a peny and the company don’t wont to deal

This is a great product. We replaced a fold up bed in our spare room for this and it is a really comfortable bed to sleep on. Also much warmer than our old bed. Took some time to build as i was on my own for a lot of the time but went together well. We are now considering getting one for the other spare room with some cupboards.
Kelly H.
Exactly what we were after
Was quite time consuming putting together but looks and works fantastic
Amir S.
The bed looks and works great once assembled, took a while to do mostly by myself with some help while lifting heavy parts into place.
The instructions are all there, but sometimes need to look at the pics really carefully to see exactly which piece is meant - some of the boards only differ by a few holes and it'd be easy to mix them up if you aren't paying attention. Maybe they could label them in the future?

With working from home I wanted to change our spare bedroom into a multi use space and this bed was the perfect way to do so. Once built the bed feels very robust and has a high quality finish, but be warned that it is a hard unit to build. My partner is very good with this type of thing as used to do it as a job and even he found the instructions hard to follow, and found some of the alignments for screws slightly out which made things frustrating. There was also some bolts missing, but Arthauss did send these out to us very quickly and we could continue building the rest of the unit while we waited for those to arrive. It is worth it once done and goes up and down so smoothly but just make sure you know your stuff and have set aside plenty of time for the build. Would still recommend to anyone looking to buy something to transform a space.

I was dubious about ordering a wall bed for daily use but this is honestly fantastic- I couldn’t be happier!
Andrew G.
Excellent service, was delivered earlier than expected, delivery driver really helpful, the bed it self was easy and straightforward when following the instructions
Indre D.
It took some time to put it together but very happy with a result!
Richard H.
Let me start by saying this this is a strong sturdy bed once put together, made from quality materials and looks fantastic in both the open and closed positions.
Some things to be wary of and this is only my experience, some of the fixings were missing , bolts weren't threaded and hole alignment of the bed frame needed some adjustment which could cause some frustration awaiting spares (luckily I had them from previous jobs). I would recommend this bed to anybody but as with most flatpack expect some problem. Rating of 5* based on final unit.
