13 Things About Couch You May Never Have Known > 자유게시판

Buying a Couch Bed

You may not have considered this kind of multi-functional furniture before but sofa beds are a practical solution for many. Interior designer Annie Mueller recommends this budget-friendly twin sleeper from Pottery Barn's teens collection. She suggests that the sofa seat cushion can be folded to create a foam mattress of 10" on the floor.

Comfort

Comfort is a key factor when purchasing a sofa-bed. Many sleeper couches have mattresses that are thin, which make the guests feel like they're sleeping on a platform instead of a bed. To avoid this problem, you can add padding to the mattress of your sofa bed by purchasing a mattress topper, like the Linenspa Memory Foam one available on Amazon. This will keep your guests from waking up with back pain, or the metal frames creaking or squeaking.

Another method to improve the comfort of your sofa bed is to opt for an extension chaise that gives more leg room for guests to spread out and relax. The color and fabric of your sofa bed will also determine how well it fits into the other furniture in the room.

Style

A dark green couch bed is available in a variety of designs. The most popular is a sleeper sofa that has an upholstered bed frame and mattress within its structure. These couches are more comfortable for sleeping than air mattresses or traditional pull-out couches. They also offer a much more consistent and comfortable feel to the mattress.

Durability

You need a sofa that will withstand the daily rigors of use. You should look for solid construction features like solid wood frames as well as reinforced seams and cushioned armrests that don't flatten over time. You'll also need a sturdy fabric that's easy to clean and can take on spills and staining. Order fabric swatches before you buy if unsure of the right fabric.

Storage

This type of couch features a hidden compartment where you can store pillows and bedding that fold down the bed easily when guests arrive.

Storing the Couch to allow air flow

Avoid stacking boxes against or on the top of your couch when storing it. This can damage the frame and cushions, as well as leave behind moisture that could cause mold and mildew. It's also important to store the dark green couch at a reasonable distance from the wall of your self-storage unit in order to allow for airflow.

It is also essential to wash the couch thoroughly prior to putting it in storage. This means vacuuming the fabric and wiping the non-fabric areas as well as the sofa feet. This will reduce the risk of mold and mildew growth, and protect the fabric from pests.
