Our new house has 3 BR, so most likely we will not have a dedicated guest room (I am TTC and the house is a total rehab- so even if I am not yet pregnant when we do move in, we will still need a room for tile cutting, storing tools, etc.)

It also has a loft we are enclosing and making the playroom, and a basement that we will be semi-finishing. DH is adamant we get a Murphy Bed for one of these rooms, mostly so his parents can stay with us (that's a whole other topic!)

My question is- are these safe with young kids? DS can easily open our fridge and counter freezer, so I can totally see him opening the bed cabinets and having it fall on him. Please let me know if I'm correct or being overly cautious... either way, I think a better investment would be a nice, comfortable sleeper sofa for the basement that will work as a guest area now, and as a rec room down the road when we are done with a playroom.
