How to Craft Magenta Bed in Minecraft

Magenta Bed in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Setting spawn point. Minecraft has used the name Magenta Bed since 1.12.

A Magenta Bed costs you 3 Magenta Wool and 3 Planks, put together at a Crafting Table. The grid takes three Magenta Wool filling the top row and three Planks filling the bottom row. That comes out as 1 Magenta Bed. Magenta Beds do not stack, so each one takes an inventory slot of its own.

Magenta Bed Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Magenta Bed is minecraft:magenta_bed. In commands the namespace may be left off, so magenta_bed works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p magenta_bed
Give several at once
/give @p magenta_bed 5
Give it to a named player
/give Steve magenta_bed 1

Cheats have to be on for Magenta Bed to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Overview

Magenta Beds set your respawn point and skip the night when slept in. They explode if used in the Nether or End. Magenta Bed uses a shaped recipe: the ingredients only work in the pattern shown.
