Why Choose a Sofa Bed?
Sofa beds are super handy for unexpected guests, or if gatherings go on into the night. You can relax with the family on the sofa, and when you’re ready for bed you can pull out the mattress and give your guests a restful night's sleep. Sofa beds are a great space saver for smaller homes, and they provide the comfort of a sofa and a cosy bed when you need it.

How often will you use a sofa bed?
When choosing your sofa bed, it’s always best to consider how often you’ll use it when making your choice. Some sofa bed options are designed for last minute, unexpected guests, whilst others offer a higher level of bed comfort if you know you’re going to be using it often. The great benefit of a sofa bed is that it gives you a great place to entertain guests when not in “bed-mode”, so another consideration is to make sure it offers enough seating space to relax when the bed isn’t in use.
Whether you use your sofa bed regularly, or if it’s for occasional use, a handy matching storage footstool is another great space saver to store the bedding and pillows for your sofa bed.

How to Measure for a Sofa Bed
To make sure your sofa bed fits, we’d recommend measuring the width and the length of the sofa bed and the space you want to put it in - make sure when you measure, you’re checking the width and length of the sofa with the bed pulled out. Measure the height if you plan to place the sofa bed under a window or in an area with a low or vaulted ceiling and make sure there’s space around the sofa when the bed is pulled out so access is easy. It’s always a good idea to measure your doors and walkways to the room you plan on having your sofa bed in, as this will make delivery easier. It’s also worth asking a Sofologist if the sofa splits or breaks down for easier delivery.
