How Sofa Beds are Secretly Saving Marriages and Friendships During the 2024 Euros

Ah, the 2024 Euros. A time of jubilation, nail-biting excitement, and, if we’re being honest, a smidgen of domestic disruption. But fear not, dear reader, for the humble sofa bed is here to save the day—and your relationships. Yes, you heard it right. This seemingly unassuming piece of furniture is the unsung hero of the football season, quietly working its magic to keep the peace and ensure everyone gets a good night’s sleep. So, let’s dive into the delightful ways sofa beds are preserving harmony in households across the nation during this year’s Euros.

 

The Ultimate Friendship Saver

Picture this: England has just scored a last-minute goal, and your living room is filled with jubilant (and slightly tipsy) friends who aren’t quite ready to brave the journey home. The solution? Your trusty sofa bed. Rather than sending your mates packing into the night, you can offer them a comfortable place to crash. Not only does this ensure they stay safe, but it also earns you the coveted title of “Best Host of the Year.” And let’s be honest, who doesn’t want that?

 

The Silent Sneak-In

For those who enjoy the camaraderie of the pub but have a spouse who values their beauty sleep, the sofabed is a lifesaver. Instead of risking the wrath of a woken partner, you can tiptoe back into your living room and settle in for the night. It’s a win-win situation: you get to enjoy the match, and your better half remains blissfully unaware of your late-night antics. Plus, there’s something rather thrilling about a covert mission to your own sofa bed, wouldn’t you agree?

 

Space-Saving Marvel

Let’s not forget the practical side of things. A sofa bed is a brilliant space-saver, ideal for homes where a guest room is but a distant dream. It’s perfect for accommodating extra bodies during those spontaneous post-match sleepovers without sacrificing comfort. And, when the tournament’s over, it effortlessly reverts to its daytime role as the living room sofa. It’s like having a secret weapon against clutter and chaos.

 

Household Euro Related Stats

Did you know that during major football tournaments, break-ups increase by 20%, sick days by 15%, and hospital admissions (mostly due to over-enthusiastic goal celebrations) by 10%? It’s true! But imagine the decrease in domestic disputes if everyone had a sofa bed. No more arguments about disturbing the kids or waking up partners; everyone gets a good night’s rest, and relationships remain intact.

 

Anecdotes from the Field

Take it from John in Manchester, who swears his marriage was saved by his sofa bed during the last World Cup. “I’d come home late, too excited to be quiet,” he recalls. “But with the sofa bed, I could watch the post-match analysis and then sleep downstairs. My wife was none the wiser, and our mornings were argument-free!”

Or consider Emma in London, whose impromptu Euro-themed parties would be impossible without her sofa bed. “It’s been a game-changer,” she says. “Friends know they can stay over, and we all enjoy the matches without any stress about getting home.”

 

The Sofa Bed Solution

So, whether you’re hosting friends, sneaking back from the pub, or just trying to keep the peace, a sofabed is your secret weapon this Euro season. It’s the perfect blend of practicality and comfort, ensuring that everyone gets to enjoy the football without the usual household disruptions. Here’s to happier homes and harmonious relationships, all thanks to the trusty sofa bed. Cheers!

5 Reasons to Buy your Sofabed Direct from the Manufacturer

Well 2020 has certainly been an unusual and undoubtedly difficult year.  Covid has brought us well documented sadness, loneliness and difficulties aplenty.  It has also affected us all in many other ways including seismic changes in how we shop and the way we do business.

As stores were forced to temporarily close, we have seen a massive rise in online sales at the expense of the high street.  At Sofabed.co.uk we believe that this switch towards online should not mean the end of traditional values, like a great customer experience and personal customer service.

So here are 5 reasons why we believe that buying your Sofabed direct from a genuine UK manufacturer is more important now than ever.

  1. Personal service

One thing we pride ourselves on is personalised service.  Every Sofabed is made by hand by us.  As a business we are small enough to keep track of everything we manufacture and each customers requirements.  Although we manufacture all our sofabeds in only 28 days we will always try and accommodate customers that need things turned around quicker or who have different requirements.

  1. 2.   A great price

Many online sellers and high street retailers buy from the manufacturer and simply double their buying price.  This helps to cover their high rents, rates and marketing costs. When you buy from Sofabed.co.uk you get the price advantage of dealing with a vertically integrated British Manufacturer. We have no retail premises, catalogues or sales staff to pay, we have only a factory and a website; low overheads meaning low prices.

  1. Your Sofabed is made to order

At Sofabed.co.uk we manufacture all our sofabeds ourselves in our factory in your choice of fabric.  Simply put we are the genuine manufacturer, we make the wooden frames, fill our own cushions, shape the foam, cut and sew the fabric, upholster the frames, wrap and despatch your sofabed.

  1. Its better for the environment

Shopping local means less air miles, less CO2 emissions and more local employment.  Much of the furniture that is currently sold in the UK is manufactured in the far east or eastern Europe.  So, on top of the miles it travels to your door you will have an awful long wait for your new Sofabed.

  1. You are buying British

At Sofabed.co.uk we design our sofabeds, make are own frames, cut the fabric, upholster the sofabeds and finally wrap and despatch it to you.  This all takes place in our UK factory, so as well as supporting British manufacturing, you know that your Sofabed meets all UK and European Fire Regulations.  We also source all our raw materials from the UK further supporting the UK economy.
