These space-saving beds are a pretty good innovation in any area of the home. As pictured here, they can be used in a bedroom, yard, or even a patio.
The main indoor benefit is the economic use of space, much like a wall-mounted Murphy bed, except that this one mounts to the ceiling. Cleaning underneath the bed has never been easier.
With multiple suspension strings, the beds appear to be quite stable, although I'm sure there are several methods of testing their durability.
The circular shape is a also a nice touch as well for these "bed swings".
