Day Beds

A day bed is the clever combination of a sofa and bed. This means you can buy two pieces of furniture in one and save on valuable space in your home, not to mention money. Our great range of day beds can ensure that guests get a quality night’s sleep. Browse our collection below or read on for more information about day beds.

What different types of day beds are there?

There are three main types of day bed, including a standard day bed, a metal day bed and a sofa bed, all of which differ by function and style.
• A standard day bed simply looks like a sofa. It features a back rest to ensure you’re comfortable while sitting. However, the base is much wider than an average sofa, meaning it makes a comfortable bed without you having to assemble anything.
• A metal day bed is similar to a standard day bed, however instead of upholstered fabric, the frame features metal piping to create a minimalist or industrial look. Our metal day bed makes a comfortable sofa and single day bed for guests.
• A fabric bed is similar to a day bed in the way that it functions as both a sofa and a bed. The main difference with a sofa bed is that it features mechanisms which turn the sofa into a bed, either by pulling the frame out or clicking the back into place. Sofa beds can function well as a double day bed, as they can often accommodate two people.

What are the benefits of a day bed?

Day beds are an easy way to accommodate any unexpected guests without compromising on comfort. Not only that, but they combine two pieces of furniture into one, meaning they create an excellent solution for homes where space is at a premium. day beds are also ideal for people who want a comfy occasional bed and a stylish sofa in one unit. With a multi-functional day bed, you can save money as well as space.

What size day bed should I get?

The size day bed you need depends on the number of guests you’re likely to have and the space available. The average single day bed features a mattress which is 3’0 wide. Whereas the standard double day bed has a mattress which is 4’6 wide. The average length of your day bed will be anything from 200cm-220cm, to accommodate even tall guests!
