Benefits of Sofa Beds

By Darlings Of Chelsea

If you’ve ever had to sleep guests on the floor – or had to vacate your own bed in order that your guests can get a good night’s rest – the benefits of sofa beds won’t be lost on you.

Extremely convenient and equally comfortable, sofa beds are the ideal way to save space. So no matter if you don’t have the luxury of a spare room – you can turn your lounge or living room into the new ‘guest wing’ in just a matter of seconds.

And thanks to the efficient, modern mechanisms tucked away inside our range of sofa beds, seconds is literally all it takes. Certainly, if your past experience of sofa beds is a clunky, hit-and-miss pull out mechanism, you’ll be pleased to know that times have changed…

Our sofa beds are designed for ease as well as comfort. So the transformation from sofa to bed isn’t challenging or frustrating, nor does it require a degree in engineering! It’s not just the internal mechanisms of sofa beds that have moved on, either. Traditionally, the aesthetic appeal was never really considered one of the benefits of sofa beds – but now it’s hard to tell the difference between a stylish standalone sofa and a sofa bed.

Just like their standalone counterparts, sofa beds come in a wide range of styles and colours, with fabrics like leather to choose from. Even our luxury corner sofas can be built to include a pull-out mattress.

Financial benefits of sofa beds

Financially, there’s now not much to choose between a sofa bed and a standalone seatee.

Compare the cost of a sofa bed to the cost of buying a standalone sofa and a comfortable bed, and you’ll see there’s simply no comparison – a sofa bed represents far greater value for money.

And best of all, despite the financial savings, there’s no compromise on comfort. Our sofa beds are designed with wooden slats and webbing at the foot, with a five-inch fully sprung mattress supporting a great night’s sleep.

You can even upgrade to a memory foam mattress for a small extra charge – making your sofa bed as comfortable (if not more comfortable) as the bed you usually sleep on. So next time your guests stay the night, you’ll be more than happy to give up your room. Of course, as much as we talk about the benefits of sofa beds, the proof of this particular pudding is in the testing. So why not visit your nearest Darlings of Chelsea showroom and put our sofa beds through their paces?

We’re confident you’ll love them; we can’t guarantee you’ll want to get up…
