Bently,
Really classy looking! Is that solid walnut? Always the perfection we've come to expect from your work.

Another gorgeous project.
Do you see an advantage of the springs for the hardware?

Thank You All,
👏 L/W, it's walnut ply with hardwood only on the faces.
Barb, I like the springs because you can add or subtract the number of them to dial in the tension, and I don't worry about having to go back to replace a shock.
That said, I have never used the shocks so I couldn't make a fair comparison between the two.

Great install, but the glass center shelves are something that makes me say DUH!
Many times I wanted built in lighting, but unless over every shelf the lower units are in the shadows. Glass is the answer but then you have light duty glass shelves and lose the woodiness look of the unit.
Solution here, a simple wood frame (duh!)
Good tip about the advantages of springs, they rarely lose their gas and as you say, easy to adjust!

We used the Create-A-Bed mechanism and have found it to be very durable. Given our level of expertise (or lack thereof) the instructions and install were easy. At the time, we grabbed the hardware on sale so wasn't really aware of options. Thankfully it's worked out.
Your version is a step above.

Here are the ones I used. (a little dusty)
Beautiful work!
