Deciding what to do with your bed is probably the biggest decision for your entire van build because it basically defines your layout, space and storage.
These 10 designs feature the tried and tested as well as some more unusual design options.
I hope you enjoy! We plan on doing a part two of this (probably another 10 – when we have filmed enough!).

Van people are always 4ft tall in these types of videos.
Where’s the elevating bed?
I basically live in a bed. Why make it everyday? 🤣🥰
hey guys instead of having car show’s you should have van conversion shows? just idea out there for ya guys, remember me lol.
your misses is smokn hot!
What’s interesting is that my 2004 Lexus rx330 also has a rock and roll bed, as the seats can be fully adjusted to a flat position. Being close to 6ft tall however it is a bit uncomfortable to sleep in as I can’t fully stretch out. If you’re slightly shorten however, it’s absolutely awesome
Fixed beds are the best. I need my bed to be ready to use after a long day.
I’d watch more of your videos if you ditched your side-kick.

Don’t forget about Murphy beds and floating beds!
Van Life ist zu Ende.
Die der Grünen, Klimahüpfer und Klimaretter
Sie werden die Welt von euch befreien. Ihr habt kein Recht mer zu existieren. Ihr dürft nur noch in einer Baracke leben und Sklavendienste tun.
Es wird kein Geld mehr geben, weil es nichts mehr gibt was ihr braucht und kaufen könnt.

Hi Nate, I have been thinking about van bed, and would like to do a roll up pack away bed, something similar to strapping with a ratchet to give it tension …. have you come across anything like this?
Some of these beds are unnecessarily big, most people can get away with a twin, dont have to live like a king. The purpose of van life was to live minimal. It becoming trendy has watered it down to "look at my cool toy."
dude, can you fit yourself in that first fixed bed???
pop top bed is just asking for trouble
someone or some animal can attack you while you sleeping
you are totally vulnerable
Это просто пиздец какой-то!🙈🙈🙈
No 8 is the best I reckon,
No 9 is pretty cool too.
I’m surprised you didn’t get to show a Happi Jac (or other raising bed) or Murphy (folded up on a wall) system I do like the Fixed bed, Futon style (5:45) and the Pop-Top bed (8:30).
Ridiculous build and too much work to get into bed mode.
The bunk beds seem suffocating for me
At about time 1:52 this chord would be good to fly your kite with ! Or maybe put on a pair of "Logan Earth Skis" and the van would pull you .
You have to do this every day.?
Focus on van systems, cost and stealth. All the rest is good, but it is cosmetic.
People are getting evicted and losing their homes and they are finding this way of life out of desperation.
These people are not holiday camping. Luxury conversion is ideal but how can it be done at a minimum cost?
I think the best ideas for a bed are the builds that have the couch in the back that offers relaxing positions down to flat for bed mode or a pull out couch. Those can be left in bed mode.
I think the best idea has already been designed and is being used daily in our homes. It is the pull out queen sized already made bed. The only bother is that you must take off the cushions. Just bolt it to the van.
the last guy simply had a HUGE motorhome
Rut her!!!
What kind of wood is that ? Its beautiful !
What brand of mattress do most use?
R u even allowed to sleep in your car on the side of the road in the UK ..haha i dont think so lol
it’s always interesting to see how so many people want their van to look like rustic cabins
Thanks for the video Nate. For us the fixed bed suits the best, we just bought a van and we’ll start to convert it soon. Can’t wait! We did recently a trip in Scotland on a motorbike and there we decided to do a van conversion and started the researching process.
The hooks were the guy fixed his tables legs scare me. I am a natural magnet for things that jot out from flat surfaces and always get scratches. My ankles and legs tingled when I saw those metal claws.
If the vans rocking, don’t come knocking 😂
I don’t even know about van life, I’m just here cuz the power of the thumbnail compelled me
What is that heater controlpanel in the first van?
Very few people can even get around the sharp edged table to sit down.
You could gouge yourself on that table and there is not enough room for the average person to get seated.
I really liked the futon style couch/bed
in Indonesia.. it is very difficult to find a place to park a camper car/van (except campsites) meaning if you want to park on the side of the road or land or parking lot there must be a parking attendant and you have to pay.. or if parking carelessly is called illegal parking and can be brought by the police .. haha very funny.. but that’s just what I thought
bunk bed just screams headache
not to mention all that top weight
ohh 8:07 I really like this one
I’m definitely Team Fixed Bed too, but one thing that I really don’t understand is people’s obsession with queen and king size beds. Why would you need a king size bed traveling solo in a van? Even if you sleep with a partner, a king bed is ridiculously big for a van! My layout includes a twin bed or a double (57"x75" at most) That way I would have space for a decent bathroom and even a working station. Why do americans want everything BIG?? XD jk <3
I’m surprised there weren’t any murphy or elevator beds. Maybe in part 2 (haven’t watched yet)
Some great ideas for beds and some very clever designs…but not one single van had a shower-room😢
u shapes are the best. Most social setting you can have.
why do all these vans have wood paneling all over the place? looks great, but for long term, its gonna stress your suspension and compromise your gas mileage. overbuilding has long term drawbacks.
Surprised to see a channel named Murphy showing top van bed builds not featuring a Murphy bed!
