No spare room? No problem.

The sofa bed has undertaken quite a transformation over recent years. Once a dated furniture piece guaranteeing an uncomfortable night’s sleep, it has evolved to become a must-have for those with limited space. Nowadays, with the right choice of sofa, you can easily transform your living room into a sleep sanctuary for guests.

Choosing a sofa bed can feel like a minefield but save yourselves time trawling through the internet and see our top tips for buying the perfect sleeper sofa online below.

  • Look out for Storage

You have got to love a piece of multifunctional furniture when it comes to maximising a small space. A sleeper sofa with an ottoman, such as the Hambleton chaise sofa bed , offer generous storage and a fantastic space saving solution.

  • Measure Up

It really is as simple as it sounds. Firstly, measure your space. You will be surprised at the amount of people that guesstimate a sofa size and end up with one far too big for the room. This defies the point of a space saving sofa bed. Therefore, always ensure that you have measured your space accurately before making a purchase. This includes measuring the space that the bed will take up in the room.

  • Pick your style

Whether you are looking for a compact sofa bed for the office, or one to cover all your living room needs, there is a design for all. Firstly, ask yourself how often you plan to use your sofa bed and who is likely to use it. If it will only be used for occasional stays then a small sofa, like this Lloyd design is a great choice. Additionally, sofa beds with removable arm rests are designed with small spaces in mind. Taking away arm rests will instantly make your room feel larger.

The ultimate space saving option is the daybed. It’s backless, minimalistic design instantly makes an interior feel larger than it is, complimenting a modern and contemporary home. Our elegant Kencho daybed is available as a single or a king, perfect for an overnight stay. At Love Home Living we cannot resist a luxury sofa bed!

Alternatively, if it is a living room centrepiece sofa you require, there are some show stealing three- or four-seater sofas available. This Bramley chaise sofabed is perfectly snug for cosy evenings watching television or hosting a last minute night guest.

  • Comfort is key

There really is no need to compromise on style or comfort when it comes to choosing the right sofa bed. A comfortable night’s sleep and happy guests is just as important as a chic sofa. Fortunately, the new generation of compact sofa beds have come a long way; a good quality sofa bed will have a comfortable mattress. All our sofa beds come with luxury mattresses to guarantee a good night’s sleep.

We offer an extensive selection of sofa beds and better still, most of them are available to customise to suit your taste. Continue your search to find the perfect compact sofa bed for you here.
