Fabric Sofa Beds

What are the benefits of a fabric sofa bed?

Not only do fabric sofa beds offer a plush and comfortable place to sleep for visitors, they’re a sophisticated addition in terms of interior design, not to mention a practical option if you’re short on space.

Furthermore, fabric sofa beds offer longevity. You can worry less about scratches or unsightly marks as they are very easy to clean.

What materials are used for fabric sofa beds?

Fabric sofa beds consist of a foam filling for a mattress, this creates a comfortable base whether you are sitting or sleeping. For a little more luxury, many fabric sofa beds feature a pocket spring mattress, which offers a little more support for your guests, particularly if they are prone to back problems.

What are the different types of fabric sofa bed available?

While fabric sofa beds all feature a fabric finish, the main way they differ is from their mechanisms. Below are there are 4 different types and how their mechanism works:

A-frame: unfold into a comfortable bed using the lower part of the sofa, this is pulled forward easily.

Folding: easy to operate and work by simply unfolding the sofa into a mattress.

Clic clac: work by lowering the back rest of the sofa to create a flat and cosy surface.

Lift and Pull: as the name suggests, these work by lifting the seat upwards and pulling it back to create a plush bed.

Which bed is best for me?

The best fabric sofa bed for you depends on the available space in your house and the number of people likely to use it. For example, chair beds are a single seater sofa and are the smallest option available for fabric sofa beds. These can usually accommodate one sitter or sleeper.

Two or Three seater sofa beds are more appropriate if the guests staying over are a couple or even a family. These offer more room while also creating a compact alternative to a double bed. As do corner sofa beds, which are a stylish option and can create a beautiful centre piece in your living room while accommodating the most people.

If you’d like to be even more storage-savvy, there are sofa beds which offer further storage options. For example, many of our fabric sofa beds feature an ottoman base, meaning you can lift the base of the sofa up and store any bits and bobs underneath.
