Sofa beds have been around for a long time. There are many different styles, and types available here in the UK, from standard pullout beds, to futons. Many styles have remained the same, and new versions have been introduced to give consumers a great choice, read more.
Sofa beds have been a popular item ever since the original versions were introduced many years ago. It is a practical product that is often brought for convenience reasons, such as a relative coming to stay, and a shortage of beds means someone needs to sleep on a sofa, but when your standard settee transforms into a bed it is a no brainer that you will be far more comfortable sleeping on mattress rather than seat cushions.
Like everything we buy, there will be different prices, and levels of quality, so shop smart when buying a sofa bed as some mattresses will not be recommended for frequent use, which means you will probably wake up with a bad back, so make sure the bed comes with a decent mattress. This will mean paying more, but you cannot put a price on comfort.
With all these choices available it remains a mystery why there are still very few leather sofa beds on the market. Since starting in this industry I have often wondered why a shortage of sofa beds were made in hide? There are hundreds of models made from synthetic materials such as PU and Vinyl, but hardly any in genuine leather. The only reason I can really think of is the price. Because a sofa bed is not used on a regular basis, many of us would prefer to make the purchase as cheap as possible. This makes perfect sense, but not in every case. When the sofa bed is in your living room, you would want it to sit and look as good as the rest of your furniture, but this is where the problem ‘lies’. The most popular models sold in the UK do not come with a sofa bed option, so the choices are made limited.
At Furniture Lifestyle, we work with two suppliers that do offer this option, but it is only available in store, and not advertised online. Like many of our models featured on the website, there are additional features available that are not advertised, and we encourage all our customers to call in click here for more information
In the future I hope to help bring more leather sofa beds into our range, but it may take a little longer than some may hope. For those of you who are prepared to wait I am sure you will not be disappointed.
