Oldham Wood is a Murphy bed maker in Salisbury, NH. Its website says it has been custom-designing Murphy Beds for more than 15 years, and its BBB grade is A+. A Google customer says they paid in full in late November, but the bed was never delivered; two days before the final delivery date, the owner said he had made the wrong unit, and the customer got their $6K+ back through their credit card company. A 2026 Google customer says Michael agreed to a job, took the deposit and did not deliver, and has not returned the deposit after many attempts. A 2024 customer said Michael created and installed a Murphy Door for their space. A 2023 customer said Michael, the owner, installed their Murphy bed on the date they agreed upon. In that 2023 review, the customer said he called a couple of days later wanting to finish a couple of things, and that he came up to the home, about 100 miles from his place of business, to put a few finishing touches on the bed. A 2023 customer across the country said Oldham Wood had their custom Murphy bed shipped, and it arrived with the parts, pieces and instructions for assembly. A 2023 buyer of a solid pine Murphy bed kit said several items came pre-installed. A 2023 customer with a cherry Murphy bed thanked the company for remote phone support during their installation. A 2023 customer wrote that the work went as planned and stayed within budget.
Michael agreed to a job, took the deposit and did not deliver. He said he would return the deposit and has not after many attempts. Find another option, he is not reliable.
I paid in full in late November but the bed was never delivered. 3 or 4 plans were made for delivery that the owner delayed. Then just 2 days before the final deliver date we gave him in April, the owner notified me that he made the wrong unit. I don't see how we could have been any more accomodating after all the delays. We gave him to the last possible day before I had to get something for company over easter weekend. I asked for my money back and went and bought a regular bed set that could be delivered by Bernie & Phylls in 2 days. The owner of Oldham Wood said he was willing to refund me but he didn't have the money. I had to go through my credit card company to get my $6K+ back. Finally after over 6 months of basically floating a 0% interest loan, the visa card came through. Can't recommend. Definitely don't give this guy cash.
Michael is an amazing craftsman. He expertly created and installed the perfect Murphy Door for our space. I highly recommend Oldham Wood for your Murphy Bed/Door needs.
We had Oldham Wood make a custom Murphy bed, and successfully coordinated all the details despite being across the country. Oldham had the bed shipped across the country and arrived in excellent condition with the parts, pieces, and instruction for assembly. Highly Recommend!
Michael, the owner, installed by Murphy Bed on the date we agreed upon. He was punctual and efficient. A couple of days later he called me to say that he wanted to finish a couple of things that he felt needed a little bit more attention. Keep in mind, I was totally satisfied with the job he had done. He came up to my home about 100 miles away from his place of business, to put a few finishing touches on the bed. Who does that? I am so happy with the job he did I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you.
