Sofa Beds

If you’re looking to maximise your space without sacrificing comfort, a pull out sofa bed could be your perfect solution. Perfect for small spaces or surprise sleepovers, these clever designs switch from seating to sleeping in no time. In this section, we’ve broken down how they work, how comfy they really are and all the options available to match your home.

What are sofa beds and how do they work?

Sofa beds are clever pieces of furniture that do double duty. They function like a regular sofa by day, then transform into a bed when needed. Depending on the style, you might fold the backrest flat, pull out a hidden mattress or lift and flip part of the frame. No matter the mechanism, they’re a great way to save space and make room for overnight guests.

Can you really relax and sleep well on a sofa bed?

Definitely, the best ones are designed with comfort in mind for both lounging and sleeping. Think soft cushions, supportive backs and easy-to-use fold-out systems. While older styles sometimes got a bad rep for being too firm, modern bed settees use better materials and smarter designs so you don’t have to sacrifice comfort for convenience.

What materials and fabrics can you choose from?

There’s loads of choice when it comes to finishes. You can go with soft and luxurious velvet, faux leather, cosy fabric or even boucle if you’re after texture. Colours range from classic neutrals to bold shades, so it’s easy to find something that fits the vibe of your space.
