Reasons to buy a sofa bed
A multi-purpose, functional and highly versatile piece of furniture. These are the three adjectives that perfectly define the sofa bed. A model that is both a sofa, to accommodate our guests in our home; and at the same time a symbol of rest, which allows us to accommodate our guests in total comfort.
The sofa bed dates back to the 19th century, when there was an urgent need for more space in middle-class homes. Although in 1899, Leonard C.Bailey patented a folding bed, it was not until the 20th century that what we know today as the sofa bed actually appeared.
At Latorre we believe that this discovery cannot be forgotten. That is why, in this post, we tell you the reasons why you should buy a sofa bed and have one in your home. Find out here!
Sofa beds: what are they and their characteristics?
The sofa bed is a sofa that can be converted into a bed. Generally, it has a metal structure that supports the mattress, which fold up under the seat cushions of the sofa. This give us the possibility to use the sofa during the day and as a classic bed at night.At first glance we do not usually distinguish a sofa bed from a normal sofa. However, sofa beds are usually smaller in size than ordinary beds. They are 150 centimetres x 200 centimetres in size, for example. A sofa bed, on the other hand, is usually smaller.
Whether for a room such as the living room of our home or simply for a space such as a guest room or our office, when selecting a sofa bed we must take into account the space we have available. Why? It is important because the type of opening it has can influence the measurements of the sofa. In this post by Pau, an ecological furniture manufacturer, you can find out about the types of sofa bed and which one to choose.
