Not sure what brands you've looked at lately, but, the Rockwood/Flagstaff 2509S/25BRDS are pretty generous with their front pass through storage. Earlier models of Murphy bed, and even some current lower priced models, lack good accessible pass through ST storage, not so much anymore.
Aside from a smaller pass through cargo storage compartment you'll also note that the Murphy Bed sofa in these models converts to a short queen bed whereas more manufacturers are now providing full length 80" queen beds in models with a conventional walk around queen bed ... your choice obviously.
