6 Reasons Why You Need a Sofa Bed

6 Reasons Why You Need a Sofa Bed

Gone are the days of uncomfortable sofa beds that creak and shake whenever you move on them. In today’s world, sofa beds rival the comfort, style and practicality you’d get from a traditional sofa. In this blog, we look at the reasons why you NEED a sofa bed in your home.

What is a sofa bed?

As it says on the label, a sofa bed is a sofa that can be turned into a bed. There are many different types and sizes of sofa bed. Perfect for a number of spaces, including living rooms, home offices or in bedrooms.

So, why should you consider a sofa bed?

1. Maximise your space

Sofa beds are the perfect space saving tool – ideal for homes with limited space but require extra sleeping space. With modern homes getting smaller and more people living in apartments, a sofa bed is perfect for those looking for a dual purpose seating and sleeping arrangement.

Or, if you love to stretch out and cosy up in front of the tv in the evening, a sofa bed is great. Convert it from a sofa to a bed quickly and easily for maximum comfort while watching your favourite film.

2. Don’t compromise on style

Gone are the days of clunky, unstylish furniture. With more designs, styles, colours and fabrics on the market these days – sofa beds compete with traditional sofas in their appearance. Whether you’re looking for a more modern or traditional style, you’ll find a sofa bed that perfectly fits your personal style and home decor. You’ll never have to compromise on style for practically.

3. Comfortable and practical

Choosing a sofa bed doesn’t mean you have to compromise comfort. With soft fabrics, extra padding and durable material – sofa beds are now just as comfortable as their traditional counterparts. What’s better than something that is not only comfortable but practical too?

4. Easy to use

Converting a sofa into a bed seems difficult, exhausting and quite frankly a nightmare. However, sofa beds have never been easier and quicker to use. With a range of different types of mechanisms a lot simply either fold out or you have to simply click it in and out of place.

5. Budget Friendly

If you’re on a budget, then a sofa bed is a great choice. Considered a more cost-effective solution, you’re getting two in one. One price for two different styles of furniture. Make sure to shop around to find a sofa bed that you love within your budget.

6. Unlimited relaxation

Despite a sofa bed being perfect for overnight guests or getting away from your snoring partner, sofa beds don’t just have to be for sleeping but perfect for unwinding and recharging. With more of us opting for nights in front of the tv with our loved ones rather than out and about – turn your sofa into a bed and have the best, cosiest movie night in.

How to choose the right sofa bed?

So, decided a sofa bed is the right choice for you? Now you have the small task of choosing the right sofa bed for you. With different sizes, styles and functionalities, we’ve put together some things to ask yourself when choosing the right sofa bed. We do also have a sofa bed buying guide if you need some further guidance.

What space do you have available?

Where do you plan on putting your sofa bed? Make sure to consider when it’s folded into a sofa but also when stretched out into a bed. We recommend adding a metre or two around the sofa bed as well for clearance and ease of movement around the sofa bed.

What size do you need?

With a range of sizes of sofa beds available, what one would be best for you and your space. If you’re limited on space single chair beds are available or if you host guests often opting for a double  or a king size sofa bed maximises comfort.

How much use will the sofa bed get used?

What is the primary use of the sofa bed? Will it be mostly used as a sofa or a bed? Or both? If you think your sofa bed will be used regularly for sleep, then choose one that prioritises comfort when converted into a bed – look for a comfortable mattress and durable frame. If the sofa bed is intended for guests every now and again, then the comfort of the bed might not be as important.

What style do you prefer?

As important as comfort is, the way a sofa bed looks is also important. Choose a sofa that reflects your personal style, matches your home and looks great. At Habbio, we have a range of different styles, fabrics and colours to create a sofa that matches your personal style while still being functional for all of life’s needs.

“A comfy sofa that fitted my needs” I took a long time deciding on a sofa as I wanted one that was more environmentally-friendly, with no animal products in it, that would fit through my narrow Victorian hallway. I found Habbio’s sofas fitted the bill at what I consider a very reasonable price. After receiving my fabric samples, the online ordering was simple, the delivery date confirmed within weeks, and the delivery on time. It took about 10 minutes for the friendly and attentive delivery person to put together the sofa. I’m super happy with my sofa, which I’ve found very comfortable. All in all, a very good experience.

“Great personal service” Habbio have been very personal, friendly and responsive in their service. The organisation of delivery was easy, and on the day Sharon kept me informed of timings, which helped a lot. Daniel, who delivered the sofas, was very helpful and assembled them for us straight away. They are definitely quick to assemble! Gorgeous to look at too, the midnight blue colour even better in real life.
