Which Sofa Bed is Right for You and Your Home?

Sofa bed retailers such as KD Beds specialise in providing huge ranges of sofa beds which are designed to suit all requirements. Sofa beds are a useful addition to any home as they provide both a comfortable place to sit and also an easy way to put guests up for the night. Fold out sofa beds are also ideal for small apartments or studios where space is at a premium thanks to the duel use they provide.

How much space is available for your sofa bed?

This is the defining question when it comes to buying a new sofa bed and not only do you need to consider the space available in the room that the sofa bed will be going in, but also if it will fit though the doorway or up the stairs. Sofabeds tend to be chunkier than regular sofas because of the mechanism used to transform the sofa into a bed. Before you look at any sofa beds, measure the size of the doorways and stairs that the sofa bed will need to fit through. You should also ensure there is enough space for the fold out sofa bed to fit in your chosen room when it’s folded out.

How often will you use your sofa bed?

How often you use the sofa bed will completely depend on your individual circumstances, for example, if you have it as a standby for guests then it could be used once every couple of months. If you plan to use the sofa bed every day because you have a studio apartment or maybe a lodger then the sofa bed will take a lot more wear and tear. Using a sofabed as your main bed means that you should invest in one that not only looks great but is also a comfortable bed. Sofa beds generally only have a thin layer of padding over the mechanisms which gives a firmer surface to sleep on which is fine for the odd night but could be uncomfortable in the long term. If you plan to use your fold out sofa bed permanently then invest in one which has a sturdy base and a thick, durable mattress so you are comfortable.

What style of sofa bed are you looking for?

Once you know where your fold out sofa bed will go and how you will use it, you then need to decide on what style of sofa bed you would like. The style of the fold out sofa bed you choose will largely depend on your taste and your current decor. Even if you find a cheap sofa bed at an online sofa bed retailer for example, it’s no use buying it if it won’t complement your home. Modern sofa beds range from minimalist futons to luxurious corner sofa beds in leather upholstery. Leading bed companies such as Sweet Dreams specialise in modern sofa beds which are both comfortable and classic in design so will harmonize with most decors.
