Sofa beds have come a long way from the plaid lumpy ones of yesteryear. It used to be that when one thought of a sofa bed, images of springs in the back or lop-sided mattresses came to mind. Today’s sofa beds are stylish and comfortable and are made to suit all tastes and decors. Choosing a sofa bed is easy with the following in mind:
Size – This is an important consideration on many levels. First one needs to figure out who the sofa bed will be used by. Will it be one person or a couple? Will the sofa bed be used as a temporary bed or a permanent one? Where will it go? Sofa beds come in the same sizes as beds do; from king to single. One cannot measure the mattress alone, however, because sofa beds have arm rests that might stick out and legs that may be bulky. It should be measured from side to side at the widest area as well as length-wise.
Upholstery – Some fabrics wear out much faster than others, some might have a noise to them (like leather) and some might not be appropriate for certain weather (someone who lives in the desert might do better to stay away from velvet upholstery). Cotton always feels good but, if it is thin and the sofa is used every day, wear and fading will occur soon. Denim materials are good for most weathers.
Which room? – The room that the sofa bed will be placed in can fit the style of sofa chosen. A sofa bed placed in a bedroom can be more delicate, in style and fabric, than a sofa in the living room since it will only be used at night. If the only room left for a sofa bed is the dining area that one can consider choosing a sofa with a theme like coffee cups or chili peppers; this allows the sofa to blend in during the day, as well as providing comfortable seating.
Sofa beds are always good to have around. One never knows when a guest will sleep over and a sofa bed beats a place on the couch any day.
