Sleeper Sofas

ABOUT SLEEPER SOFAS

Western innovation and modern technology led to the creation of the sleeper sofa. Couch by day, bed by night; sleeper sofas are perfect for overnight guests and practical for residents who need the extra seating.

Over time, these multi-use space savers have only gotten more comfortable and easier to use. Slumberland Furniture carries all of today's top-rated sleeper sofa selections. Skip the air mattress and make your guests feel right at home in a cozy bed of their own.

The sleeper sofa has come a long way since the clumsy set-up and thin mattress you might remember from ages past. Sleep sofas used to bring up memories of uncomfortable hotel stays and childhood sleepovers at the grandparents' home and waking up with an achy-breaky feeling back. Those days are gone.

Modern sleeper sofas offer comfortable and stylish options for seating and sleeping. Today's designs come together in minutes with plush mattresses, quality upholstery, and comfy cushions that provide total comfort. They're great for everything from cozy nights in to entertaining and hosting guests. As the original multiple-use furniture, sleeper sofas have come into their own.

At Slumberland, we carry sleeper sofas with style. Whether you are looking for a comfortable sleeper sofa for lounging in the living room or a sofa bed for the guest room, you'll find something just right for your home.

A sleeper sofa from Slumberland Furniture is a modular piece of furniture that will not only beautify your home but also serve an important purpose. Imagine that you are hosting a family reunion, and everyone is driving to your home from out of town. The reunion goes wonderfully, but several of your relatives will be spending the night at your place before heading home the next day. Unfortunately, you only have one spare bedroom, so what do you do? You simply unfold your sleeper sofa and put sheets and pillows on it, and your guests are perfectly accommodated. Sleepers allow you the convenient seating and good looks of a sofa while having the versatility of a bed. Sleepers have this supremely useful feature, which takes nothing away from the sofa itself but just adds a bed feature to it. You can add to the charm of your sleeper by placing pillows on the ends and setting it in front of a coffee table, and when you’re ready to use the bed feature, simply move the coffee table and unfold the sleeper sofa. Sleepers are a must-have for anyone who expects to have occasional guests, and either does not have a spare bedroom or expects more guests than their bedroom can accommodate.

SLEEPER SOFA BED SIZES

Sleeper sofas come in a number of sizes and many formats, from sectional sleepers and chairs to ottoman pull-outs. Consider the space where you want to put your sofa bed, and remember the inner bed will be smaller than the width of the sofa bed.

This means that when deciding on how big a sleeper sofa to purchase, it's essential to take into consideration that a sleeper soft generally seats more people than it can sleep. For example, two people can comfortably sit on a twin-size sleeper sofa measuring around 30-39 inches wide, but only one will be able to sleep in it.

General sleeper sofa bed sizes:

• Ottoman mattress width ranges from 30" to 54"
• Chair/Twin mattress width ranges from 30" to 39"
• Full mattress width ranges from 52" to 55"
• Queen size mattress width ranges from 58" to 66"
• King size mattress width ranges from 74" to 76"
• Sectionals mattress width ranges from 52" to 66"
• Sectional with Chaise mattress width ranges from 52" to 66"

As you can see, there is a wide range in measurements for sleeper sofas, and the size often varies based on brand and style. Be sure to bring measurements of your space with you when hunting for a new sofa bed to ensure you get the right size for your living room, home office, or guest room.

TYPES OF SLEEPER SOFAS

Are sleeper sofas and sofa beds the same thing? Although these days we use sleeper sofa and sofa beds interchangeably, they have slightly different meanings. They both function as seating/sleeping hybrids, but the two names refer to different types of this functional furniture.

Sleeper Sofa

A sleeper sofa looks like a traditional couch and has a built-in mattress. It can range in size from twin to king. When folded out, the arms and back of the sofa work as the bed's headboard. Sofa beds are comfortable and convenient, easy to use, and come in a variety of styles. They take up just as much space as a sofa, and you may have to move a few pieces of furniture when you open them up.

Sofa Bed

Often confused with sleeper sofas, a sofa bed doesn't have an internal mattress. The back and sometimes the sides of the sofa fold down into a flat surface, in much the same way a futon does, and this surface becomes the mattress. Since they are more compact, sofa beds are a better option for smaller spaces. They quickly and easily shift from seating to sleeping to back to seating again.
