Different types of sofa beds differ from one another with finishing and additions (bedding container, movable armrests) and most of all the methods of using. What types of sleeper sofas folding mechanisms are the most common?

“Dolphin Type” Sleeper Sofa

A mechanism called “Dolphin” frequently appears in corner sofa beds. This kind of spacious furniture provides a big and comfortable sleeping space after folding out.

However, corner sofas may seem massive, but smart construction allows one to manage the couch singlehandedly. It is enough to draw out a metal cart from under the seat and rise its surface on an equal level with the sofa bed. “Dolphin Type” sleeper sofa can accommodate 2, or even 3 adults. Its additional advantage is a commodious closet, where you can place spare pillows, duvets, and bed linens.

If you look for a cozy sleeper sofa, we recommend Spinel or Moghan furniture family. Both are available in different color variants – from bright and optimistic blues and reds to luxurious navy blue and stylish bottle green.

Another good idea is Onyx sofa bed. It is perfect for big families and looks fabulous in the middle of a spacious living room with lots of free space around.

Belgian Type of Sofa

This mechanism of folding is sometimes called “Sedac”. It shows close resemblance to classic camp-bed and is very handy to use. You just need to pull out the metal frame from under the seat and cover it with a mattress.

Solid construction is overlained with a comfortable foam mattress. It is a simple solution, however, not without a slight fault. Belgian type of sofa usually lacks the closet for linen, which impairs a little its functionality. On the other hand, this piece of furniture is rather light and easily adjustable.

“DL Type” of Sleeper Sofa

This kind of sofa bed folds out by drawing out the seat forward and putting them back down. This way you create a plain and convenient sleeping space for two people. Construction often provides a bed linen closet.

A big advantage of “DL Type” sofa bed is, that you can unfold it quickly without moving the piece of furniture away from the wall. It is not only convenient, but also protects wooden panels on the floor from scratching.

Furnish your home with a stylish and comfortable sleeper sofa from the Zircon family. It is a modern coach with movable armrests, which lets you adapt such a model to the needs of householders. Functionality and timeless aesthetics grant ideal fitting in all types of interiors.

Sleeper Sofa “Puma Type”

The “Puma Type” mechanism is often used in upholstered furniture. Unfolding a sleeping coach is easy, all it takes is rising a seat upward and laying it back down. At the same time, another sleeper sofa mattress pulls up. You do not have to rise the back or move around different elements, so scratching a delicate floor by moving a coach is very unlikely.

In our store, you will find similar, yet more advanced solutions. Light, triple-seat Jasper coach fits perfectly for raw, Scandinavian style. Elegant upholstery (available in ten colors) makes a beautiful contrast with slender, durable legs made of a beech tree. Trimming emphasizes the subtle sofa’s shape and timeless form.

Free space under the coach is precious, especially for those, who live in a small, crowded place. This way you can easily reduce the number of spare lockers and cabinets. Bed linen closet may be used as children’s toys and games storage.
Although, you have to remember that additional wooden elements rise furniture weight. You will feel it in your back while bringing in or moving around the sleeper sofa. More weight makes it easier to damage the wooden floor. To avoid needless scratching, try glued felt pads. You can buy them in every household store.

How to Choose a Sleeper Sofa Smart and Wisely?

First of all, furniture must fit into the space available. Even the most comfortable sleeper sofa is useless if you cannot easily lie down and sleep. Two or three seated sofas without sleeping options are easy to manage because they occupy exactly the space you see. Folding coaches need more space for a sleeper sofa mattress.

Spacious “Dolphin Type” or “DL Type” sofas need enough space to avoid moving them from the wall all the time. Sleeping has to be convenient, not endless torment.

Try to find a couch measured to your height and a sleeping sofa mattress that grants you deep rest.

When considering buying a sofa, try to predict how many people will use it at the same time. If you expect great parties, a sleeper sofa without sides and armrests will better suit your needs.
