+-Rest assured, all Slumberland sleepers are high-quality and reasonably priced. So, the best sofa sleeper for you comes down to the size, type, and style you prefer. Start by measuring your space and determining the size you need. Next, consider what type of seating/sleeper hybrid you want. There is a difference between a sleeper sofa, sofa bed, futon, daybed, and loveseat.
- 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. They 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, a sofa bed doesn't have an internal mattress. The back and sometimes sides of the sofa fold down into a flat surface. This surface becomes the mattress. Since they are more compact, sofa beds are a better option for smaller spaces.
- Futons, Daybeds, and Loveseats: Futons, daybeds, or loveseats offer other sleeping spots. They are narrower and can still offer seating or a prime nap spot during the day and a bed at night.
Once you choose which style of furniture you want, it comes down to the style. Explore our different fabric options and mattress types to narrow down your decision.
Lastly, look for accent chairs and end tables to complement your new sleeper and truly transform your space for future guests.
