Gray Bed at a glance

Gray Bed comes from crafting, and Utility Blocks is where it sits as a block. Each Gray Bed sits alone in a slot, which makes a spare one expensive to carry, and nine hotbar slots hold nine.

Gray Bed owes its colour to gray dye. A closed eyeblossom gives one. Mixing one black dye with one white dye makes two. The game rates Gray Bed at 0.2 hardness. An explosion meets the same 0.2, so Gray Bed is no safer against TNT than against a tool. It sits between Gray Banner and Gray Carpet in Utility Blocks, number 138 of 340 there.

Building with it

A Gray Bed uses three gray wool, dyed from a closed eyeblossom or from black and white mixed. It is the bed that disappears into a stone or deepslate bedroom instead of standing out. The mechanics are the ones every bed shares: sleep to skip the night, sleep again to reset your spawn point.

In practice

Three wool and three planks give a bed, and the wool decides the colour. Gray needs black and white dye, both of which are renewable, so a gray bed can be made in any quantity without a single flower, which suits a base built out of stone.
