Hi Pete,
You have helped me twice, via your blog, with selecting two different mattresses.
Both have been home runs for us. They are each different and fantastic in their own ways.
I have a need for a third mattress now and would love to get your feedback.
Do you have a recommendation for a mattress for a murphy bed?
Is there such a thing as a luxury murphy bed mattress?
This murphy bed will be mounted vertically, and used as a guest bed but we also want it comfortable enough for our own use. (We have been spoiled by the comfort of the Wolf mattresses, what can I say?)
This is the mechanism we will be using:
Next Bed Murphy Bed Frame
I'd like to get the bed frame as low profile to the wall as possible without sacrificing comfort.
From what I understand, I would need a Bonnell spring / innerspring coil type to help it hold its shape.
Is that accurate?
I'm hoping to get a max depth of around 8" to 9" for the mattress, including any mattress pad or topper.
Is this even possible? I'm looking for the magic unicorn murphy bed mattress. :)
I feel like if anyone knows if this exists, it would be you!
Thank you for any help you can provide!
Sincerely, Kristen
Hi Kristen,
As before, shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.
I’m so pleased to hear that your previous purchases have worked so well for you.
I do have a couple of recommendations.
The lesser expensive option being my number one pick.
The more expensive of the two is the Natura of Canada poly/latex hybrid Jasper.
It’s a 9.5” mattress on the firm side.
Not having coils, it creates a love it/hate it situation…depending on the sleeper.
People with disc related back problems won’t be getting proper spinal support.
Shown here:
The better choice is the Wolf Adrian mattress, which uses an interlocking coil unit.
The support is firm and good for any back problems…or if you have none.
That particular coil system is best for vertical storage.
It’s only 8” thick.
Shown here:
To that, you can add a soft topper or comforter.
I believe Walmart has a 1” polyurethane foam mattress topper, which would make it the perfect overall thickness.
Or, you can use a ‘synthetic down’ comforter, which is super comfy.
Or, a Suite Sleep 2” Soft Organic Latex Topper for comfort that lasts.

Thanks, Pete
