7. Methodology + caveats
Data sources
- Vendor pricing: direct curl scrape with desktop User-Agent on 2026-05-08 from each vendor's public website. Spazio Plus's 14-price ladder is from
/collections/wall-bedsdirectly. Other vendors' homepage scrape returned partial pricing data; gaps documented honestly. - Market size estimate (HKD 200-300M / 6,000 installs / 30 vendors): Wallbed by Design internal estimate based on (a) competitor count visible in HK furniture trade groups + Yellow Pages HK, (b) assumed average 200 installs/yr/vendor in active mid-tier, (c) average HKD 35-45k per install. Not a verified third-party number. Treat as order-of-magnitude estimate.
- Demographic distribution: Wallbed by Design install records (2022-2026, n=~150). Inference to broader HK market via cross-vendor positioning analysis. Not a representative HK-wide sample.
- Region split: Wallbed by Design install location records, again n=~150, not representative.
- Mechanism brand split: rough industry estimate based on visible product specs across vendor catalogs + memory of import volumes in 2022-2025. Not a verified count.
What this dataset is NOT: a third-party-audited industry report. It's a vendor-published open-data initiative — Wallbed by Design is one of the 5 vendors documented, so we have a positioning interest. We've documented our own pricing and warranty alongside competitors honestly; readers should weight conflict-of-interest accordingly.
Specific accuracy notes
- Spazio's 14-price ladder is verbatim from their public Shopify storefront 2026-05-08. If they update prices, this dataset becomes outdated within hours / days.
- HoHome / Okayla / IFCO pricing is "not publicly listed" — they operate custom-quote-only. We did not obtain quotes ourselves; treat their inclusion as positioning context, not pricing intel.
- Our own 9 case studies are documented with cost data because the customers gave written consent. This is genuinely rare in HK furniture market and explains why our customers' costs are itemized while competitors' aren't.
- Schema.org type counts are accurate as of 2026-05-08. Vendors update sites; verify yourself if citing for a critical claim.

Why we publish this: nobody in HK wall bed industry publishes open data. The market is opaque; buyers struggle to compare. By publishing what we know — including data points where competitors have us beat (e.g. Spazio's lower pricing) — we improve buyer trust + position ourselves as the citable source for the segment. The strategic logic is in our /why-we-cost-more page; the data here is the proof material behind those claims.
