Add a fold-out bed to your living room, guest room or spare bedroom and watch yourself become everyone’s favourite host.

So many sofa bed options

Gone are the days of unsightly, rickety fold-out futons — sofa beds now come in every shape, size, colour and material you can imagine. From plush velvet three-seaters to a chic and compact single sofa bed, you can find something to suit your existing aesthetic or make a statement. Add some cushions to elevate the look and don’t forget to pick up some extra bed sheets for when guests come to stay.

Benefits of sofa beds

Space-saving
If space is a hot commodity in your home, a sofa bed is an innovative solution. Your guest room or spare bedroom might look cramped and crowded with a traditional bed, but a pull-out sofa doesn’t take up nearly as much floor space.

Cost-effective
A sofa bed serves two major functions — sitting and sleeping. For those on a budget, finding furniture that can do double duty can eliminate the need to buy two separate pieces.

Convenient
Whether you’re curled up on the couch reading or sprawled out on the bed sleeping, a sofa bed can take you from day to night. Having a reliable piece of furniture with different purposes adds effortless convenience to your everyday life.

Sofa bed FAQs

What are sofa beds?
As the name suggests, sofa beds are a piece of furniture that can function as both a sofa and a bed. It’s super easy to convert from a couch to a bed — most sofa beds feature a pull-out or fold-out mechanism that flattens the couch into a comfortable sleeping surface.

Are cushions comfortable?
You may have bad memories of trying to sleep on a lumpy futon or getting poked in the back by rogue springs in an old pull-out couch — but we’ve come a long way since then! Modern sofa beds are incredibly comfortable and designed with ergonomics in mind. They have proper cushioning and back support to ensure optimal snoozing conditions.

What are the different sizes of sofa beds?
No matter how much space you have (or how many guests you’re expecting), there is a sofa bed to suit. You can get compact single sofa beds suitable for one, all the way up to queen sofa beds that comfortably sleep two people.
