Sofa Beds for Studio Apartments

The number of studio apartments in fast-growing cities across the UK is on the rise, particularly in city centres where housing is in high demand. In the past decade, studio flats and studio apartments have become increasingly popular across the UK. An apartment that is self-contained is defined as a studio apartment. A typical open-plan apartment consists of a bedroom, living room, and kitchen, with a separate bathroom.

Sofabeds are perfect for studio apartments due to their small size and flexibility in use. During the day, why not use the sofa element to relax and watch tv or read a book, then open it up at night to sleep deeply on or welcome guests. Our compact sofa beds are great to fit in any small space whilst functional all year round.  In this blog, we will look at the benefits of each style and why they work for your studio apartment.

Compact Sofa Bed

Compact sofa beds are smaller in size due to their lack of armrests. The reduced constructed surfaces allow a compact sofa bed to be used in a studio apartment which can often lack space. These sofa beds still have all of the features of a regular-sized sofa bed but can be more practical for a studio apartment.

Madrid Sofa Bed

The Madrid Sofabed is a compact piece of furniture, but it will comfortably seat 2 people and fit in any small apartment. This is also an excellent choice for guest rooms, home offices, apartments, and any size living space since it can be moved upstairs more easily than other models.  This sofa looks great in contemporary minimalist upholstery with vibrant colour choices because of its modern design.

Gothenburg Sofa Bed

The Gothenburg Sofa bed is a compact 2-seater sofabed that can be made to suit any interior design style. Built with a tall backrest, this sofa bed allows for daytime usage while taking up minimum space in a small room. Whilst creating comfortable everyday use, a small sofa bed of this design can turn into a comfortable guest bed to give any visitors a good night’s sleep in a different environment. Open-plan small studio apartments can sometimes be difficult to minimise sound so offering a bed frame that can create a deep sleep is always appreciated by guests.

Statement Box Bed

Box beds,  fit in any home decor and are multifunctional and similar in size to a Scandinavian coffee table. Although they do not have backrests or back cushions, these sofas can still be used as an extra seat to replace a modern sofa before being extended into a single or small double bed for guests. Any multi-use pieces of furniture are suitable for spare rooms and growing in popularity in studio apartments. 

Sussex Single Box Bed

In addition to being our smallest piece of furniture, the Sussex Single Box Bed also fits almost any floor space anywhere.  If you live in a studio apartment, caravan, or canal boat, or have a narrow doorway or spiral staircase, this may be the perfect choice for you- simply throwa topper over it to change its look every day.  To use as a bed rather than a  pouffe or even a sectional piece of furniture, simply remove the seat cushion and fold out the sofabed action. Then add a duvet, and some pillows and enjoy it as a sleeper sofa in a spare bedroom.  A folded out sofabed can be reclined into a small single bed, which makes it perfect for guests and sleepovers.  With its foam filling and trampoline base, this bed mimics the feel and comfort of a fully sprung mattress.

Cheshire Double Box Bed

As our smallest 2-seater sofabed, the Cheshire Double Box Bed can be placed anywhere.  This solution is perfect for people with caravans, canal boats, narrow doorways, or spiral staircases.  Although the Cheshire Double Boxbed is smaller, it is manufactured exactly as our larger 2-seater sofabeds. The bed folds up into a central footrest or pouffe that can be moved into any area of your studio apartment for extra seating or to add different room ideas to a regulated space.

Stylish Alternative Day Bed

A Daybed, is similar to a chaise lounge or loveseat, comes with two armrests but no backrest. The cushions used with the armrest are usually moved to help form a headrest when the day bed is transformed and pushed against a wall for extra support. We offer four styles of compact day beds to match various home styles and limited spaces in studio apartments. 

 

Copenhagen Daybed

Featuring a fully upholstered wooden frame, foam seat cushion, and rectangular arm cushions, the Copenhagen Daybed is handcrafted in our UK factory.  In addition to being placed at the foot of a bed, daybeds are perfect for use in a study or against a wall anywhere in the house.  Folded out, the sofabed can be used by guests on an occasional basis as a small double bed.

York Daybed

The York Daybed is a modern take on the sofabed for those who like something different. Free delivery to mainland UK addresses is included in the price of this made-to-order product. Daybeds with no backs are ideal for difficult-to-manoeuvre doorways and for apartments, lofts, and upstairs rooms.

Stockholm Daybed

The Stockholm Daybed could be the perfect choice if you are looking for a contemporary and stylish Daybed. Our Stockholm Daybed is hand-crafted in our UK factory with an upholstered wooden frame, foam bolster cushions and a foam seat cushion.  As the sofabed folds out into a small double bed, it is ideal for occasional use by guests.

Helsinki Daybed

This Helsinki Daybed is handcrafted in our UK factory and features a wooden frame with upholstered upholstery, a foam cushion in the seat, and rectangular arm cushions.   In a study or spare room, daybeds look great at the foot of a bed.  For occasional use by guests, the folded-out bed is the size of a small double bed.

The Best Sofa Beds: The Definitive 2023 Buying Guide

Choosing the right sofa bed for your home is a big decision, but should not be a daunting one. The two main considerations are often style and comfort but are other things that can also play a role.

This sofabed buying guide breaks down everything you may be wondering, whether you’re measuring for a sofabed, learning the best methods of bed care or just deciding what style is right for you. Read on and learn how to find the best sofa bed for your home so guests can have the best night’s sleep possible. 

1. How do you measure for a Sofabed?

There is nothing worse than getting your new sofabed delivered and discovering it is too big or too small for the intended room. To make sure your sofa bed is the perfect fit, we would recommend you to:

  • Measure the length, width and height of where the sofabed will be positioned in your room, accounting for the open size of the sofabed when acting as a supporting bed frame and mattress, as well as noting the position of windows that may need easy access to. Particularly with corner sofabeds, they can at times obstruct access to the windows or blinds.
  • Measure any doors, corridors, pieces of furniture or other structures that might obstruct the sofabed, as many are delivered fully assembled.

All our sofabed model pages feature detailed dimensions so you can get it into your home hassle-free. Our sofabeds are made to order and delivered fully assembled so it is very important that any doors, corridors or other structures you’ll have to get the sofa bed through are measured.

2. What is the best sofabed size?

When it comes to sofabeds, most people will go for a classic two-seater model that contains a small double bed. These are a great choice for any room in the house. You could also go for an upgrade to a wider sofabed, such as a three-seater or chaise, which will give you both a wider seat and a double mattress.

However, space is at a premium for many people. Spiral staircases, loft conversions, narrow boats, flats and apartments are common places for sofabeds to be used. In these locations, compact sofabeds with no arms or box beds are a great choice for the all-in-one main sofa and sleeping area. In homes where space is not at a premium, box beds can be a great choice for a living room to be used as an ottoman or pouffe.

For even smaller spaces, a single box bed like the Sussex Single Box bed is a good choice. With all the same attributes as a double box bed, it contains a single bed and can be used as a single seat or pouffe.

3. Types of Sofa Bed Mechanisms

There are two main sofabed mechanisms available to buy; a click-clack action and a pull-out action. Over the years, we have had the experience of having manufactured sofabeds with a variety of actions and there are benefits to each type.

Click-clack sofa bed mechanism

A click-clack mechanism is where the seat is slightly pulled forward and the backrest clicks flat to form the bed. This mechanism is the easiest to operate and most space-saving of the two, however, frequent usage of the back will increase the likelihood of wear and tear.

Pull-out sofa bed mechanism

In the pull-out sofa bed, also known as a fold-out sofa bed, the cushions are removed and the bed will pull out from the front of the sofa, lifting the bed from the base. Many sofabed users believe this makes it the best sofabed style as the back remains in place; making it ideal when placed against a wall or in an alcove.

4. Finding the best ‘Sofa’

Sofabeds are often bought for occasional use to go in guest rooms, home offices or other spare rooms. However, in many British homes, the luxury of an extra room is not always common and because of this, overnight guests often stay in the living room. This of course means you need a sofabed needs that is comfortable both as a regular sofa or a sofabed.

Single & Small Sofabeds

Although not the choice for many, a single sofabed can be ideal if you have a low budget and do not want to sacrifice comfort. They are also great if you are working with a small space and need a sofa bed that does not take up a large section of the room. A single-seat cushion fits the bill aesthetically and practically, making a model like the Devon Sofabed an ideal choice.

Two & three-seater Sofabeds

The most used type of sofabeds, the two & three-seater take centre stage in the living room as the mantle tieing the room together. Whilst they are heavier than a single, they are easy to tuck away for everyday use and offer a greater level of comfort and support to whoever is sitting. They are naturally heavier to pull out, however, they are the ideal sleeping space if you have two guests.

For soft & squishy double sofabeds, a traditional pair of seat cushions, such as those on the Norfolk Sofabed, fits the bill for many. The back cushion can be fixed, like on the Madrid sofabed, or be cushions, like the Taunton Sofabed. For those preferring a firmer seat, a fixed back might be the best solution.

5. How to take care of your sofabed?

Sofabeds are designed with functionality in mind and can come in for a lot of use both as a seat and as a spare bed. To keep your sofabed in the best condition possible we have a few handy suggestions.

Arm Caps

Arm caps are a great way to extend the life of your sofa bed. Cut from the same fabric as the sofabed, they blend in perfectly and are shaped to seamlessly sit on the sofabed armrest.

Cushions

Matching scatter cushions are another good option for creating extra comfort and protecting seat cushions. Back cushions are filled with fibre which in time will start to compact if left alone. A good idea is to regularly plump the sofa cushions to maintain their shape and retain their comfort.

Sofabed Mattress

Unlike a futon, where the mattress is used as a seat and cushion, a sofabed gives you the luxury of a mattress unaffected by daily usage. Depending on the size and type of sofabed, there are many mattress types ranging from standard or pocket-sprung mattresses to latex or memory foam mattresses.

What is the best mattress for a sofabed? Whether you have a single-size or king-size sofabed, it depends on who is sleeping on it. If you have a regular guest that will be using it, it’s a good idea to ask about their mattress preference.

In case your guest is struggling to sleep, a mattress topper can add an extra layer of comfort and support, helping them fall asleep on the now-comfortable sofabed.

Mattress toppers are great for extending the life of the mattress, as it decreases pressure applied on the springs and slows down natural wear and tear. They are also a lot easier to wash than the mattress itself; rather than spending potentially hundreds on professionally cleaning or even replacing it, you can throw the wine-spilt mattress topper straight in the wash with a stain remover and have it back on the sofabed in hours.

All the fabrics on sofabed.co.uk are contract-grade fabrics with a high Martindale rub count. This means that they will last for years to come. As they are made from upholstery-grade man-made fibres they will be naturally resistant to stains. Should something become spilt on a sofabed we would recommend wiping this up immediately and for ongoing cleaning the use of a damp cloth.

6. Types of Sofa Bed: Classic vs Contemporary

Some styles never go out of fashion and others are temporary fads. One thing for sure though is choosing between classic or contemporary is all down to personal preference. It is also possible to make a classical sofabed contemporary by pairing it with a modern fabric.

Some sofabeds, like the Chesterfield, have never gone out of fashion. When paired with a classic fabric they add elegance and style to any room. Others like the Chelsea are bang on trend particularly when covered with vibrant velvet.

7. Sofabeds Made to Meet Your Dreams

Like most household items, sofabeds come in many shapes, sizes, and prices. Some retailers choose to sell cheap imports that are available in one colour, whilst others offer a completely bespoke service down to underside thread count.

Both have their advantages. The off-the-shelf imports are typically cheaper compared to bespoke, how, the benefit of a custom sofabed greatly outweighs the additional costs. At sofabed.co.uk, you choose the model, the fabric, the size and additional upholstery options including whether you want a memory foam mattress or spring type and scatter cushions.

Sofabeds the perfect solution for Christmas guests

Christmas might be the most magical time of the year, with its great food, parties, and lots of family time. However, as well as all those lovely presents Christmas brings other things into your home like extra house guests. So, if you want to avoid the headache of where your friends and family are going to sleep it could be time to start planning now.  Yes it might be early, but this is no last minute decision. A little planning now and you have one less thing to worry about nearer to the big day.

2 Spare Room Sofabeds

For many families the fourth bedroom is a spare room.  Yes you could put a bed in the room full time, but then you cannot use the room for much else when there are no guests.  A better solution is a small sofabed that allows the room to also be used as a study, hobby room or play room.  Sofabeds with arms such as the Gothenburg https://sofabed.co.uk/product/gothenburg-sofabed/ and Madrid https://sofabed.co.uk/product/madrid-sofabed/ are perfect for this and as they are made to order the fabric can suit any décor.

3 Apartments

More and more people are now living in apartments, studios and flats, contemporary living at its finest.  By their nature these are homes where space is at a premium, so a traditional extra bed is not an option.  A box bed is one of the most compact sofabeds there is and will fit in the smallest of spaces.  When the Cheshire Box bed https://sofabed.co.uk/product/cheshire-double-box-bed/ is combined with a modern fabric it is perfect for apartments, studios and flats.

The Definitive Sofa bed Buying Guide from sofabed.co.uk

Choosing the right sofabed for you and your home is a big decision, but should not be a daunting one. Two of the main considerations are undoubtedly the sofa beds style and its comfort, but these are not the only things you will need to consider. How will your new sofabed fit into the intended space and how will it complement your existing décor and furniture are equally important considerations. This sofabed buying guide from sofabed.co.uk will hopefully go some of the way to helping you choose the perfect sofa bed for your home.

Measuring for a sofabed
There is nothing worse than getting your new sofabed delivered and discovering it is too big or indeed to small for the intended room. To make sure your sofa bed is the perfect fit, we would recommend that before ordering you measure the length, width and height of where the sofabed will be positioned in your room. This measurement should also take into account the open size of the sofabed when it is acting as a bed. On sofabed.co.uk you will find all these dimensions in the details of each sofabed model.  It is also worth noting the position of any windows that may need to open near the sofabed and any other furniture in the room. All our sofabeds are made to order and delivered fully assembled so it is very important that any doors, corridors or other structures you’ll have to get the sofa bed through are measured.

Different Sofa bed mechanisms
There are a variety of sofabed mechanisms available to buy with the main ones being either a click-clack action or a fold out action. Over the years we have the experience of having manufactured sofabeds with a variety of actions and there are benefits to each type. We believe that the pull out and lift up mechanism is the best solution available. With this type of action the cushions are removed and the bed is then pulled out from the front of the sofa, with the bed lifting from the base. Crucially the back of the sofa remains in place meaning that they are ideal for placing against a wall or in an alcove.

Sofabeds as a seat
Lots of sofabeds are bought for spare bedrooms, studies or other upstairs rooms. However it is becoming more and more common for guests to stay in living rooms and other downstairs rooms. This of course means that your new sofabed will need to be equally comfortable as a sofa and as a sofabed . Every customer has different requirements, which is why we offer an extensive range of models. For some people a single seat cushion fits the bill aesthetically and practically and a model like the Devon Sofabed is ideal. For others a traditional pair of seat cushions, such as those on the Norfolk Sofabed, fits the bill.
The back cushion can be fixed, like on the Madrid sofabed, or be cushions, like the Taunton Sofabed. For those preferring a firmer seat a fixed back maybe the best solution.

Sofa bed care
Sofabeds can come in for a lot of use both as a seat and as a spare bed. To keep your sofabed in the best condition possible we have a few handy suggestions. Arm caps are a great way to extend the life of your sofa bed. Cut from the same fabric as the sofabed they blend in perfectly and are shaped to seamlessly sit on the sofabed arm. Matching scatter cushions are another good option for creating that extra bit of comfort and for protecting the seat cushions.
Back cushions are filled with fibre which in time will start to compact if left alone. A good idea is to regularly plump these cushions helping them to keep their shape and retain their comfort.
All the fabrics on sofabed.co.uk are contract grade fabrics with a high Martindale rub count. This means that they will last for years to come. As they are made from upholstery grade man made fibres they will be naturally resistant to stains. Should something become spilt on a sofabed we would recommend wiping this up immediately and for ongoing cleaning the use of a damp cloth.

What size to choose?
When it comes to sofabeds most people will go for a classic 2 seat model that contains a small double bed. These are a great choice for any room in the house. You could also go for an upgrade to a wider sofabed which will give you both a wider seat and a double bed mattress. For a lot of customers though space is at a premium. Spiral staircases, loft conversions, narrow boats, flats and apartments are all places that sofabeds are bought for. In these locations compact sofabeds with no arms or box beds are a great choice. Box beds can also be great choices for a living room where they can be used as an ottoman or pouffe. For even smaller spaces a single box bed like the Sussex Single Box bed is a good choice. With all the same attributes as a double box bed it contains a single bed and can be used as a single seat or pouffe.

Classic or Contemporary
Some styles never go out of fashion and others are a temporary fad. One thing for sure though is whether you choose a classic or a contemporary sofabed is all down to personal preference. It is also possible to make a classical sofabed contemporary by pairing it with a modern fabric. Some sofabeds, like the Chesterfield, have never gone out of fashion. When paired with a classic fabric they add elegance and style to any room. Others like the Chelsea are bang on trend particularly when covered with a vibrant velvet.

Made to order or off the shelf
Like most household items sofabeds come in many shapes and sizes and also in many prices. Some retailers choose to sell cheap imports that are available in one colour, whilst others offer a bespoke service. Both have their advantages. The off the shelf import has one obvious advantage it is cheap. Bespoke manufactured sofabeds maybe more expensive, but the benefits can greatly outweigh the additional costs. Being able to choose the model, the fabric, the size and the optional extras make for a sofabed as individual as the customer.

So there you have it the complete guide to choosing the best sofabed that will last you for years to come.

Buy Direct From The Manufacturer– You know it makes sense!!

Whenever you make the decision to buy something, from the smallest impulse buy to larger considered purchases, such as a sofa bed, you have the choice to buy in many different ways.  You can buy direct from the manufacturer, from a retailer or from a distributor and that is before we even get into online and offline purchases!

Although all three options can offer different advantages and experiences, we believe that buying direct from the manufacturer, like www.sofabed.co.uk, offers you the greatest benefits. When you buy direct there is every chance you will get a better product at a better price. So when it is time to buy a sofabed we think that there are at least 6 reasons to consider buying direct from www.sofabed.co.uk.

  • There is no middle-man involved when you buy direct. Online retailers, distributors and high street shops have numerous expenses that they pass on to the customer. Buildings, employees, advertising and transport all need to be paid for. These extra costs inevitably get incorporated into the end price. At sofabed.co.uk we have no partner retailers to pay we have a factory and a website, that’s it. This means our costs, and our prices are always low.
  • When you order an item from the manufacturer, there are a lot less companies involved in its distribution meaning it is much more likely to get to you in top condition. At sofabed.co.uk we either deliver ourselves or via our online carrier. Either way it is a 2 man
  • Product miles are a key issue for the whole planet and buying local has never been more important than it is right now. When you buy from a local manufacturer you know that your new sofabed has not been shipped around the world. The sofabed only need to be transported from the factory to your house.
  • As you are buying direct from the manufacturer your product is made to order to your specification. With sofabed.co.uk you choose the style of sofabed, the fabric, the mattress, if you want arm caps, how many scatter cushions you want and even if you want an extra wide sofabed.  It truly is your sofabed your way.
  • Buying British makes sense. co.uk is a true British manufacturer.  We have 2 factories one in Cheshire and one in Staffordshire.  We buy all our raw materials such as wood, foam, fibre and fabric from UK based businesses. So as well as helping to support the British staff we employ, you are helping to support the staff in our supply chain.
  • When you buy from a retailer that sources its products from overseas there is a huge time lag between order and delivery.  Also should there be any issues with your order it take an age to rectify.  When you buy direct from a small manufacturer you can be assure of a quick turn around.  At www.sofabed.co.uk we manufacture and deliver our sofabeds in only 28 days.  Also should there be an issue we try to remedy the situation straight away.

So there you have it 6 great reasons to buy direct from the manufacturer.
