Of the variety of types of furniture, the most popular, without exaggeration, use sofas, and especially convertible sofas. And there is nothing surprising in this. After all, one sofa can combine several functions at once.
Furniture transformer - sofa bed
First of all, it should be noted that the multifunctional sofa transformer is the most practical variant of upholstered furniture for small-sized apartments, where on the account, literally, every centimeter. And it's also an excellent variant of a compact sleeping place for a children's room. What is its advantage over other types of upholstered furniture ? Let's figure it out in order. The sofa transformer assumes in its design one or another type of folding mechanism, thanks to which it (sofa) can be transformed into a comfortable enough bed without much effort. But, and this is important! - before you decide on a particular model of the sofa, pay attention to some nuances that will help you make the right choice and not be disappointed by the not-so-good purchase.
Choosing a sofa transformer, you should consider ...
All types of mechanisms for unfolding sofas, depending on the location of the sleeping place, can be divided into two groups:
- the bed after the sofa is laid out is located along its back;
- the sleeping place is located perpendicular to the back of the sofa.
Therefore, if you do not have enough free space in the room, the best choice is a sofa from the first group (more compact in the unfolded state). And the most reliable in this category are the sofas with the "eurobook" mechanism. The principle of its transformation is simple and does not require much effort - the seat extends forward, and the back is lowered to the horizontal position. Thus, the sofa transformer turns into a rather wide double bed. Sofas of this type can also have a folding system "dolphin", "click-clack" and a traditional "book".
In the sofas unfolding perpendicular to the backrest, the following systems are used: "French clamshell" (mixotual), accordion , "Spartacus" (the latest development of Italian furniture makers, sofas with such a system are especially suitable for tall people).
When choosing a transformer sofa, you should also pay attention to the quality of the upholstery fabric, the filling of the soft part, the presence of a linen box for storing bedding. On how high the quality characteristics of these indicators will largely depend on your comfort and the life of the sofa.
Transformers of special construction
If you have a very limited area or room is narrow enough to squeeze even the smallest sofa is not possible, do not despair in any case! The furniture market offers to solve this problem with the help of the same transformer sofa, but folds into a bunk bed if necessary. The construction is equipped with a built-in staircase, which serves both for support and as a reliable barrier. What is especially important, the reliability of the folding mechanism in sofas of this type is guaranteed by a specially designed defensive system against spontaneous movement.
And another version of the location of upholstered furniture in a very limited area - a folding sofa bed transformer. Practicality of such furniture in cramped conditions is difficult to overestimate. In the assembled form - this is a neat little sofa, and the sleeping place in the form of a mattress on a special frame is hidden in a wall niche. In addition, to maximize the ease of the process of unfolding a sofa of this type, the design can be equipped with a special mechanism with an electric drive and a remote control.
