where do you put the sofa bed?

The sofa bed is placed in different room in the house, so when buying, the principles to be based on are different. If it is placed in the living room, then choose a sofa bed with good-looking appearance, practical and sturdy colors; if it is to be used for a long time, then it is necessary to choose a sofa bed with high comfort and high quality; if it is placed in the study room for a short time, then there is no need pay attention to the appearance too much, just use it. In short, before buying a sofa bed, you need to determine where do you put it and how do you use it.

Purchase criteria.

1. Frame:

This is the hardware of the sofa bed. Wood frames are used for sofa beds, but because wood frames are inferior to steel frames in terms of load-bearing and service life, some big brand manufacturers will choose steel frames when manufacturing sofa beds. When selecting, it is necessary to observe whether the joints of the frame are smooth without too many gaps. If it is a metal material, also observe whether its coating is uniform and soft. In order to test the robustness of the frame, you can hold the sofa bed with both hands and shake it forwards, backwards, left and right. If the frame is still stable and there is no noise during the violent shaking, the frame is said to be firm and you can consider buying it.

2. Spring:

A sofa bed with better elasticity will be the same as a box spring, with springs added to the bottom of the bed. Generally speaking, a sofa bed with plastic frame and foam as the main material has poor bearing capacity and is prone to deformation. Therefore, it is best not to choose a sofa bed with moderate hardness and balanced elasticity. When shopping, you can lie down on the sofa bed and change your posture continuously to feel comfortable. In addition, there is no sound when a good spring is supporting the weight. If you find that the spring bed makes a sound during the trial lying back and forth, it is better to give up.

3. Joints:

The so-called joints refer to the stacking cards that need to be opened when the sofa becomes a bed or the slide is pulled out. Some sofa beds are even equipped with pulleys at the bottom of the bed to facilitate people's frequent movement. These movable "joints" are an important part of the sofa bed, which can be used as a sofa rest and bed sleep. If the joints are not done well, it will directly affect the final using experience. Therefore, in the process of purchasing, you can spread or fold the sofa bed, and feel whether it will become stuck when the angle changes. If not, it means that the quality of the sofa bed is acceptable, otherwise it is a poor quality sofa bed.

4. Fabric:

Because the fabric of each is different, the final using experience is also different. Generally speaking, the fabric of the sofa bed is usually made of cloth, which should be thick and wear-resistant and not easy to pilling. There are also some manufacturers that do some anti-fouling treatments on the surface of the fabric to make the sofa bed antistatic and flame retardant. Some large manufacturers will choose to use leather materials because the leather fabric is tough, durable and durable.

Second, comfort and health. The leather fabric is breathable, not sultry, and has an excellent touch and outstanding delicateness. Price: The sofa beds currently on the market have very different prices due to different production processes, different fabrics, and different lengths. There are 300, 500, 800, and thousands. With different prices, there will be obvious differences in the experience of using. In the end, how to choose and buy a suitable one depends on your actual situation. Generally speaking, if you don't use it often or your budget is a little low, you can choose a cheap sofa bed; if you use it everyday or your budget is large enough, you can try to buy a higher level one.

5. Size:

Sofa beds come in a couple of distinct sizes, which means you need to spend some time selecting the best one for your house. When calculating the size, many people often only count the size of the sofa bed. They do not know that many sofa beds cannot be placed on the wall, and some may need to be 5 cm away from the wall. Also think about how much space you've got for the couch. In case you have loads of space for this, you are able to go with a typical sleeper sofa which includes three cushions around. These generally pull into Queen-size beds, offering sufficient space for a couple of adults to sleep.

If you are pushed for space in your house, do not worry. It's still possible to receive a sleeper couch, but you may need to stay with a loveseat or bench which unfolds to a twin mattress.

6. Appearance:

It's wise to look at the design. You may keep it easy and simple, or you may opt for much more elaborate details -- like tapered thighs and tufted backs. Just think about what best fits your home's current fashion.

This mainly depends on the fabric, armrests and legs of the sofa bed. Fabric, choose the breathable and comfortable ones you like; armrests, choose sturdy, durable and practical one; sofa legs, choose the thicker, strong bearing capacity one, the most important thing is to have some height from the ground, if the sofa legs are low, when cleaning there may be dead corners that cannot be completely cleaned.

Think about the color as you store, making certain that you select a color that matches the remainder of the furniture inside the room. Fortunately, couch beds arrive in almost all colors, from neutrals such as beige or gray to bright colors which produce a statement--like orange or turquoise.
