I teach engineering and really appreciate how you have incorporated the natural "elastic" deflection of the drawer slides to allow the bed to open without the legs contacting the floor and then provide support under load. Very few bed designs take advantage of material properties in this way... GREAT JOB! A+

This is about the best design of a pull out sofa that I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing it. I’m saving you dude.

Yep after 2 years of watching these van life videos. Yes this is the best bed layout.

A skilled KZreadr and hard worker. This kid is going places!

As soon as I heard at 0:30, "I'm about to take this whole thing apart and show you guys how I made it, then put it back together." What a boss! Mad respect. Nice work.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm about to build this in my van. You have cleared up alot of the unknowns for me. Just one recommendation: drill some holes in your bed boards for air circulation or the condensation from your body through the mattress will eventually cause the wood to get mouldy. Cheers Mate!

Great video totally respect that you took it apart to show how you did this!

I totally love that you took the bed apart to show us how it was constructed.Much respect and may you always have safe camper journeys .

This is one of the best bed/sofa convertibles I have ever seen! It's actually functional as both arrangements and super fast to change between. Thank you so much for taking the time to show how you built it!

Intelligent design and very easy-to-follow instructions. I built my van last summer with a platform bed, took it out and realized that I hated the design. Ripped everything out and have been trying to find a better bed solution. This is it! Thanks for going to all the trouble of taking it apart :-)

I started renovating my RV and I'm using your idea for the bed in the bedroom so I can have more floor space during the day. But I am accessing my storage from the front of the bed. This is awesome.

You are a design genius! Thanks for this

This is the best build I’ve seen in over a year of researching. It’s also the best instructional how to video. Tip of my hat to you sir!

this is TRULY perfect. It is the exact design I want for my Honda CR-V conversion. Scaled down to fit, of course. THANKS!!!

Wow, I’ve watched so many videos and people do the most complicated builds. You prove that the simple way is often the best way. Even I could build this and would be very happy with the outcome. Thanks keep up the amazing work

Simple and smart. Plus the couch mode is so stylish. I love how the seat part isn't thin. Looks comfy

Excellent design! I've been searching youtube for a month and your design is original. I'm renovating my rv. Gonna rip out the queen bed which eats up all the floor space in the master. Plan to install your bed as a daybed in front of the window. I love the dual purpose and extra storage. Thanks again!!!

Thank you so much. I’ve been trying to find a video that shows exactly how to make this. It’s functional, easy to build and looks great! So excited. Thanks again.

Brilliant solution. Thank you for that. Love how the base flips out of the way to access storage under the couch. Very well done.

It's incredible on how you seem to be like not interested to live in a tiny house van. But when you building it is like you have everything the Van campers needed. 😁 The amazing ideas that you've put into building a house in a tiny spaced van was priceless. I hope that you tour around places as well as to help the people to build their own. Specially, the homeless people who need it a lot. Thanks for sharing and kudos to you bro and keep up the great work. 💯 - from Philippines. 🇵🇭

One of the things I like about this design is that when you are putting your bed back into couch mode, the big space opens up underneath to jam in all your bed pillows, duvet, sheets, whatever. Nice!

OMG. Finally a tutorial that starts with what it is all adding up to. Thank you!!!! Really well done!

Man. This video should go viral. Thanks for your generous spirit in sharing the best bed ever with us.

The dedication. Thank you.

I've been impressed with the super clever design ideas you have. That sunken shower was another extremely clever idea! GREAT idea to use the drawer slides! I've seen people do the same thing with alternating slats too for a more low tech approach, but I really like the slides for their smoothness of function.

This is awesome! Thank you for doing this! The explaining is so necessary!

thank you sharing your bed build and how the sliders work in so much detail. I was so uncertain how to build mine and you're video really helped and I've got it down now!

This is by far the best, most versatile, cool looking, super easy and comfortable conversion bed I have seen Thanks a lot.

@DualEx Thanks for going to such lengths to show us how to do this. Really appreciate it! 👍🏻👏🏻💥

Thank you! How amazing of you! You're out here teaching and I THANK YOU

It's the best sleeper couch I ever saw ,easy to convert into a bed and give you max space in your camper van, excellent I am going to do the same bed in my camper ,thanks for this bright idea

This really is the BEST camper conversion bed! Simply because you can literally use your design and make it any width you want. The storage compartment is brilliant!! Great video man.

Have looked at dozens of videos for couch\bed conversions. Yours is the best! We are definitely building your design. Nice work.

Genius! This is exactly what I was looking for. Great job.💜

I was impressed. Well done. Always nice to see a new approach.

Bought your book. Most creative design I've seen on a couch/bed and I've watched a LOT of vanlife videos!

Incredible! I am soo watching this frame by frame when I get in my HGTV-mode!?! Wish me luck!

Thank you for sharing this wonderful tutorial and best wishes for your van build and journeys.

Wow, I was into it in 30 seconds, thanks fro helping us with what you know. Great job!

Excellent. This is so much straight forward than what I was planning on doing. Great job!

Best use of space I've seen in a camper! Thank you!

After looking at a lot of van bed builds and this video about 10 times lol! I think I got it! This is the best bed storage out there! Thank you!

I sooooooo love this young man!!!!!! Thank you so much for taking time to show us “how to”!!!!!! I’m your biggest fan!!!!!!!!!

Shames a $1000 rock & roll bed. Your one is far more practical, easy to operate, plenty of storage, and maybe even more comfortable as a seat and as a bed. Thanks for sharing champ. You are a good person kind sir.

Brilliant mate, i'm turning a race van into a camper at the minute and this is just what i've been looking for. Looking forward to watching some more of your videos. Thanks!

Nice build and great visual during the deconstruction and resurrection. Thank you.

Yes, you are right - It is a great video, and thank you so very much for sharing your information. It's greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the video on the sliding bed build. I'm working on a vintage 1972 camper restoration and I definitely will incorporate this idea into my gaucho couch.

kevin hill that old school van sounds awesome. Good luck with that build I would love to see it on KZread once it’s done

Best bed ever, thank you for sharing how it was made.

Love how easy you teach. Thank You.

Ingenius! That is a fantastic concept, thank you for sharing

Kudos young sir, thx for actually deconstructing it to show us how it was assembled, usually others just assume they can gloss through a quick summary and everyone gets it . . . subbed for more and good luck with your future projects.

THIS DESIGN IS FUNCTIONAL. Yes you have a good set up. Not hard to get to the storage underneath, no messing around with lifting or refitting 3 foam cushions or any one of 4 timber bed top pieces every time you want to access under storage like I have to. I had been thinking about what to do to get easy access and storage and still have an out of the way fold out bed. You have helped me solve my problem which will allow me to do away with a single bed/seat, gain storage and a comfortable seat using my newly bought foam and still have a bed when required. I have removed the table (used to make a big bed and one side of the U shaped cafe seating which previously gave me the option of two single beds because I wanted floor space. There is still too much seating for me as I am a solo traveler driving a little motor home (fits in a standard size parking bay) with an over cab double bed. At the moment I have L shaped seating across the back and down the other side. Under the back seat area in one corner is the water pump, the rest is storage to where the two seats meet on the other side over the gas box (accessed from outside. Next to the gas box is storage and three batteries and associated electrics to the stove cupboard. I have planty of over head storage. I can now remove the seating along the side and install a cupboard with doors, making access to the batteries easier and giving me a bench top (with a pull out table) the same height as the stove and a bit of floor space too.. Thank you for posting

Good man. I'm going to start making one today! Its solid, practical and will work in well in my campervan.

Incredible how well thought out this camper is! Extremely impressed!

Thanks for showing that in detail. Such a simple but great design.

Dude!!! Love your video! I'm using your set up for my 1971 airstream. You totally inspired me. Thank you!

Been looking up a couch/bed conversion for my new Brooklyn studio and this one takes the cake

thank you! this was so kind of you to show us how you put this amazing couch together

Absolutely the best multi use van bed out there! Thanks.

It's all good. I even like the cushions and the fabric you have chosen. Good on you.

Thank you so much. We love your setup

Your bed is fantastic! Thanks for sharing the design.

Best I've seen for this purpose. May be just the ticket for my application and I agree with Gregory.

YOUR CHANNEL HAS BEEN SO HELPFUL FOR MY BUILD THANK YOUUU 😘😘😘

You are one clever lad .. loving your videos. Super helpful! Thanks from ireland 🇮🇪 ❤

You are so cleaver in your designs. So happy to have found your channel . You are an awesome craftsman👍👍👍

I love the plaid/ checked fabric

I've been visualizing this idea, drawing this idea, just trying to figure this idea out in some way and after hours of searching I finally found your video. THANK YOU for your effort in showing off your design in this video. It is so helpful! (I recommend adding the words sliding bed/futon style bed to your title or description to help people find it - It only appeared for me after watching Ikea futon hacks)

You are a smart young man. Well done. Great job. Thank you for sharing. Adding a comment want to say who ever did the sofa/bed combo cushions did an out standing job all of the plaid matches all same directions. Great job looks nice.

What a great job! Enjoyed your creativity! Continued success!

Well done Great foldable sliding sofa bed. TQ so much for dismantling the build n guide us through step by step on how to build it. Simple instructions to follow. Have a good year ahead. Stay safe !

Absolutely brilliant!! Thats problem solved for me!! I have been thinking about how to do this for a while and now I can build a custom sofa bed the same. 🙏🏻💚

Brilliant ! And keep it simple! Thanks for going through the effort to show us.

That’s a great idea! Thanks for showing how you put it together.

Man, I kept scrolling to see videos and saw this. This is what I need for my camper. From a 5x8 Northern Tool trailer and that's about the size I need too! This was very helpful, and a neat idea! this gave me a better idea how to go about making mine. Now just to get going on it again!

excellent bed conversion design...love that it's deep enough to sit on and not just a narrow bench.

Perfect. Just what I was looking for!!

Again. Brilliant! Thank you for sharing the details.

So fresh! So clean..

Checked out the merch. Love, love, love the "not living with my parents anymore" shirt. 😍

Great job son! You explained and showed great detail for everyone. Stay Strong and Carry On! Prayers and Blessings to you and your family! Love and God Bless America! Uncle Jeff!

Superb job, and very kind of you to dismantle it so we can see how you did it.

Slick design! Thanks for the demo...

I’m so glad I found you before I bought my van.

You inspire me thank you brother keep dem vids comming

wow, great job. This is very nicely done!

Nice build, thanks for sharing man. Best from UK

Smartest and simpliest design I've seen and I've been looking at Van Builds for ages. Its just crazy badass! Nice work sir! I just subscribed and will follow you. Thanks for sharing!

That is a fantastic design. Thanks so much for sharing. I especially appreciate you taking it apart to show how it was done. Well done sir!!
