What is a sofa bed?
Some homes have loads of space for spare bedrooms for guests to stay; other homes have to use the space more sparingly. Sofa beds are one way to keep your living area, but with the option to have people stay over, without compromise. A sofa bed is a sofa, also known as a futon, that either folds out or folds flat to become a comfortable bed.
Fold out sofa bed
The style most associate with a sofa bed, the fold out sofa bed is where the mattress for the bed is hidden in the frame of the sofa. The mattress folds out on a frame and reveals a more traditional looking bed. The Julian Bowen Vivo Furniture Mink Chenille Sofa-bed comes in different colours and is built with a hardwood frame for extra sturdiness. They can also be referred to as a pull-out coach.
Fold down sofa bed
A more modern and space saving option, the fold down, or lay flat, sofa bed is where the back of the chair is lowered to offer a double bed. The Vida Living Furniture Lokken Dark Grey Velvet Sofa Bed is made for comfort with a velvet finish. This oak sofa bed frame has stylish and strong turned oak legs for added quality.
Where would you use a sofa bed?
Living Room
If you do host friends and family but either don’t use it regularly or have the space, the living room is one of the most popular rooms for an oak furniture sofa bed. Being one of the most used rooms in the home, you don’t want a permanent bed fixture in there just in case you have visitors. You wouldn’t even know the sofa is actually is an oak futon sofa bed.
Home Office
Although you may want a static bed frame for guests, you can give yourself the option of changing this room to another living space just by opting for an oak sofa bed. The oak sofa bed works great in a home office as 99% of the time its where you work, but when someone visits, its easily transformed.
Studio apartments
For the person living in one multi-purpose room, an oak sofa bed is virtually essential. Studio apartments do not offer much in the way of real estate and having both a bed and a sofa will dramatically reduce the space you have for any other types of furniture. Simply folding your bed away opens up the room to be used hoe you want to use it.
