Murphy Beds- opinions?
For those who have or have had them, what do you think? Are they comfortable, or no? I know they cost some storage, but it seems you gain floor space in a smaller trailer.

We love the murphy bed in our minilite 2504S. I couldn't imaging the trailer without it. We have an enormous amount of floor space, a couch and a bed all in a 25' bunk camper. The amount of open floor space was very important, as we had a new born and a three year old. It gave them tons of floor area to play on, crawl on, fight on, roll around on etc. In the evening we read the boys books on the couch, tuck them into bed and then fold down our bed. It does lose the pass through feature of the storage, but 80% of that storage is still there, it is just broken up into smaller pieces. Our camper has tons of storage, to the point that it even impresses others that do have larger trailers with the front pass through under the queen bed. We actually have so much storage that it isn't all used, and we go on 10-14 day long mountain trips that have had -10'C to +33'C in the same trip and we have had clothes, toys and everything we could possibly want for us and the two boys, with storage to spare, and I don't pack light.
