A Space-Saving Roll-Out Bed
Ad 728×90
Croatian inventor Luka Buljan was seeking to add a hideaway guest bed to his home. Unsatisfied with the existing options—sofabed, Murphy bed, air mattress—he had a thought: "Most mattresses today are shipped rolled up — vacuum-sealed, compressed, and coiled.
I wondered: If we can roll a mattress once, why not again? Why not after every use?
I casually shared this thought with a friend who works on industrial mattress rolling machines — and the idea clicked. What if we could build a compact, electric version for home use?" Buljan has successfully prototyped this Roll bed , which must have one heckuva powerful motor to compress all of that foam: Details are light, but Buljan says he's planning a Kickstarter.
