* A canopy bed can only be slept on if it is inside a completed house. Otherwise the following message will display in your event window: {{event|block|The house is too windy to provide protection.}}
* To find out if a bed is available or who is sleeping in it, [[examine]] it. If the bed is occupied, it will say: {{event|block|Some kind of mysterious haze lingers over the canopy bed, and you notice that the canopy bed is occupied by the spirit of ''<playername>''.}}
* After the sleeper has accumulated the maximum sleep bonus (5 10 hours), the bed will be automatically freed up for other players to sleep in.
* If the canopy bed is not on your own deed, there will be a 60 second timer for sleeping in it.
* Sleeping damages a canopy bed, regardless of the house being on a deed or not.
