10 Meetups About Couch You Should Attend

Buying sofa and couch are multi-functional furniture that can be used in a variety of ways. Interior designer Annie Mueller recommends this budget-friendly twin sleeper from Pottery Barn's teens collection. The sofa seat cushion unfolds to create a 10" foam mattress that rests on the floor.

Comfort

The comfort factor is an important consideration when buying a sofa-bed. A lot of sleeper sofas have thin mattresses that leave the guests feeling as if they're sleeping on a platform frame instead of in a bed. To prevent this you should invest in a mattress topper, like the Linenspa memory foam one at Amazon, to add some extra padding to your couch bed's mattress. This will prevent your guests from waking with back pain, or metal frames creaking or squeaking.

A chaise extension can allow guests to stretch out and relax more comfortably. The fabric and color of your sofa bed will also determine how well it blends into the rest of the room. If you're not sure of the fabric to pick, you can order free material swatches online and test them at your home before making the purchase.

This modern midcentury sofa from Anthropologie is a great choice if you want an ottoman or bed that is comfortable in both shapes. This couch has a queen-size mattress that can comfortably accommodate two people. It's also customizable with more than 70 different fabrics and cushion designs.

The sleeper sofa, though a little more expensive than other options in this roundup, is incredibly comfortable and comes with an extra thick 13cm memory foam mattress--the most dense of them all. Its unique design, with an easy-to-pull-out mechanism that flips the seat and backrest to convert it into a bed, is also a major selling factor.

The only issue with this piece is that it requires assembly but the tools needed are included with the couch. It's worth it since this sofa is loved by all who use it for its convenience. It can comfortably fit two people and comes with many customization options that include 11 layouts, 194 fabrics 5 widths, 4 depths and 6 chaise lengths.

In contrast to other sleeper sofas from West Elm incorporates bed frames in its structure to make the process of conversion more easy and comfortable. When not in couch mode, the mattress can be hidden underneath the cushions, and it takes only a few minutes to fold into a bed. The best part is that the mattress doesn't feel flimsy or uncomfortable, and it even includes a built-in storage compartment for blankets and pillows.

Style

A couch bed can be found in a variety of styles. The most popular is a sleeper sofa, which features the bed frame and mattress inside its structure. They are more comfortable than traditional pull-out sofas, as they provide a more consistent mattress.

Click-clack sofa beds are another type that can be transformed from a couch into an actual bed in a single move. The underside of the structure is to be lifted and tipped back before it can be laid flat in order to accommodate a mattress.

A daybed is similar in design to a couch bed however it has a higher back and armrests. This kind of sofa has mattresses that are covered with a removable slipcover making it a great option for those who want the convenience of a sofa bed but prefers a more traditional style. This kind of couch has the added benefit that you can put the bedding away when not in use.

Durability

You want a sofa that can stand up to the demands of daily use. Look for sturdy construction details like solid wooden frames with reinforced seams, cushioned armrests that don't flatten over time. You'll also need a sturdy fabric that's easy to clean and can take on spills and stains. If you're unsure of which fabric is right for your needs make sure you order material swatches of the brand before buying to see how it will look in your home.

This two-seater from Emma Sleep is a great example of durability and comfortability in sleeper sofas. The mattress, made of CentriPur Foam and designed to keep you cool when you sleep it is 10 inches thick. It is also latex-free which helps reduce allergy concerns. I found it extremely comfortable to sleep on and the only downside was that changing it to a couch required some effort (it's not as easy to convert as an air mattress).

Another great feature of this sleeper is the frame, which is constructed from birch wood for durability that lasts for a long time. It's also upholstered in polyester that is easy to clean and comes with a throw cushion for extra comfort. The chaise is a nice feature that can also be used as a headrest when the couch is turned into a bed.

The three-seater sofa from West Elm is another great alternative for a functional, comfortable sofa bed. The mattress is 13cm wide when folded out. This is a fantastic size and much more comfortable than the thin sofa bed that many sleeper sofas are equipped with. The extra thickness makes it easier to remove the mattress for guests to arrive without any struggle or falling.

Another advantage of this sofa is its simple mechanism for changing it into an actual bed. It's much safer than some pull-out couches, which are difficult to operate and be uncomfortable to use. Instead, it features the lever you push to open the bed, as well as a bar that you can pull to extend it. It's a little more expensive than other sleeper sofas however, it's well worth the cost for its quality, comfort and the ease of use.

Stores

If you're looking for a space that's small and are looking for a sofa bed with built-in storage could be a great solution. This kind of couch comes with a hidden compartment where you can keep pillows and bedding and allows you to fold down the bed easily when guests arrive. This multifunctional furniture is available in a wide range of upholstery fabrics and can be used with most standard mattresses.

Storing the Couch to Allow Air Flow

Avoid stacking boxes against or on the couch when storing it. This could cause damage to the frame and cushions, as well as leave behind moisture that could lead to mildew and mold. To allow for airflow, it is important to keep the couch a distance from the wall of your self-storage unit.

Additionally, it is essential to wash the couch thoroughly prior to putting it in storage. This means vacuuming the fabric and wiping down the areas that aren't fabric, as well as the sofa's feet. This will lower the risk of mold and mildew growth, and guard the fabric from insects.
