Convertible Sleeper Sofas

A convertible sofa switches effortlessly from a sofa during the day into a cosy bed at night. Sofa beds are ideal if you have two guests staying with you, as they open out into a spacious double bed with plenty of soft pillows and a supportive mattress to guarantee a good night’s sleep. Chic, unique, and particularly well-suited for small apartments, they’re also just right if you only entertain guests occasionally and don’t want to turn another room into a bedroom that rarely gets used.

Daybeds for Lounging & Sleeping

Daybeds offer a truly sublime way to go from day to night without any effort. Blending on-trend, mid-century design motifs with modern concepts, they’re the sophisticated way to transition and provide ample space for a single guest.

Compact Sleeper Seating for Small Spaces

Limited space doesn’t stop you from offering your unexpected guests premium levels of comfort. A convertible sofa is the clear winner, providing both daytime and nighttime practicality without diminishing the overall aesthetic of your décor. They’re particularly well-suited to studio flats and small apartments, where space is limited.

Pull-Out or Fold-Down Bed Designs

Pull-out bed designs are normally incorporated into sofa beds or, if you have a larger space, as part of a corner sofa bed. The key is to ensure you have room in front of the sofa to accommodate the length of the mattress once it’s fully extended.

Upholstered Modern Daybeds & Sleepers

At CB2, we’re focused on creating furniture that’s functional and comfortable as well as pleasing to look at. Our upholstered modern daybeds and sleepers represent a contemporary interpretation of a classic design that suits all styles of interior. Add some throws, pillows, and some sublimely cosy bedding, and you have the best of both worlds, day or night.

FAQs

What’s the difference between a sleeper sofa and a daybed for guest use?

While both sleeper sofas and daybeds are ideal if you have unexpected guests staying for the night, during the day, they have different appearances. A sleeper sofa or sofa bed converts back into a sofa for day use and generally incorporates a hinged mechanism that pulls out to convert the sofa into a comfortable bed. A daybed remains in the same configuration as a twin bed, but doubles as a sofa or lounge with additional pillows and cushions. The key difference is that a sleeper sofa expands into a full-size bed big enough for two people, whereas a daybed is a twin-size configuration that’s more suitable for a single guest.

Are daybeds comfortable enough for everyday sleeping?

Daybeds are wonderfully comfortable for everyday use, but they are more suitable for occasional sleeping if you have guests over. If you have limited space, they can work as an everyday bed, although you will need to think about effective storage solutions for your bedding when it’s not being used during the day.

What size sleeper works best for small apartments or studios?

Sofa beds are the ideal choice for small apartments or studios. Compact and multi-functional, they are also a stylish addition to a room and easy to incorporate into a capsule collection of one-off furniture pieces to add interest. During the day, they’re a comfortable sofa that’s ideal if you’re entertaining or just curling up in front of the TV with your favourite film. At night, they convert quickly and easily into a double bed large enough to sleep two people in complete comfort. This adaptability makes a sofa bed the obvious choice for smaller spaces.

Do sleeper sofas require special mattresses or frames?

No. Sleeper sofas already have the mattress and frame built into their construction. In some, the sofa cushions act as part of the mattress, while others open out to reveal a built-in foam mattress, so there are no joins or dips to disturb your sleep. The sofa bed’s frame is integral to the construction of the sofa, so you don’t need to add any extra parts to transform it from a sofa into a bed.

How do I style a daybed so it works as both seating and a bed?

It’s all about the accessories. To use both the seating and bed aspects of a daybed, you can add throws and pillows that double up as extra bedding when the evening rolls around. Faux fur throws are deliciously indulgent and luxurious, while pillows and cushions offer plenty of support and comfort. You can also use these to create the illusion that a bed is really a sofa, by covering fitted sheets on your daybed’s base with strategically positioned throws to disguise its nighttime function.
