Production

A bed can be made in Minecraft with the following materials:

• 3x wool (all colors possible)

• 3x wooden planks

Crafting: Place the 3x wool in the top row and the 3x wooden boards in the middle row of the crafting table

Function for players

Sleeping:

• Only possible at night or during a thunderstorm

• Skips the night and resets the spawn point

Respawn point:

• After sleeping, the player returns to this bed upon death

• If the bed is destroyed or blocked, a warning appears

Function for villagers

• Every villager needs a bed to sleep in

• At least one additional (free) bed must be available for reproduction

• Villagers base their daily rhythms on their beds

Colors & decoration

• There are 16 color variations

• Bed color can be changed by using dyed wool or afterwards with paint (not directly in the vanilla game, but e.g. with mods)

• Popular for bedrooms, inns or role-playing buildings

Tips

• Place your bed in a safe place with lighting

• Avoid sleeping in the Nether or End - beds explode there!

• Use multiple beds in villages to increase the population

Trivia

• If an attempt is made to sleep in a bed in the Nether or End, it explodes and causes great damage

• With a bed, a player's respawn point can be changed independently of the world spawn

• Beds are also used in speedruns to defeat the Ender Dragon with the explosion in the Nether
