How to Choose the Best Pull Out Couch
When you are choosing a sofa, there are many options for upholstery fabrics and colors. Take a look according to your personal texture preferences and the amount of wear and tear you anticipate it to endure.
This sleek, casual couch can be transformed from a two-seater to an entire queen-sized bed in just a few seconds. The cooling mattress replaces the frame traditional with a more comfortable durable, long-lasting and durable solution.
1. Burrow Shift Sleeper Sofa
Burrow is a direct-to-consumer furniture brand that makes modular sofas that fit in smaller spaces. Their sleeper sectional sofa with storage and pull out bed has an inviting jersey cover and sits low to the ground, with round wooden feet. The chaise can be lifted up to reveal a sleeping area with a comfortable mattress as well as storage compartments for bedding. The model is available in a variety of colors and can be paired with other seating options to create a custom appearance. It's easy and quick to place an order, with the majority of furniture arriving within a week.
While some sofa beds are cumbersome to assemble the Shift takes only the steps necessary to change from couch to bed. You'll have to take out the back cushions and tuck into the mattress, but there are no other steps to be complicated. The sleeper sofa also has a USB port for charging electronics and a pocket for storing pillows or blankets. The arm cushions double as normal pillows that can be removed and put in a pillowcase to easily switch out for guests.
The best thing about the Burrow Shift is that it doesn't require a box spring or foundation, making it more compact and easier to move into new homes or apartments than most other sleeper couches. The company claims to have reengineered the pieces to “split into recyclable, manageable boxes” and their modular design will expand with families as they shift from loveseats to sectionals over time.
The Shift sleeper sofa is not inexpensive, but it's an excellent option for those who are looking for a stylish comfortable, comfy and easy to put together sleeper. It's backed by a 30-day trial period for free and the company offers 3, 6 or 12 month financing plans starting at zero percent APR.
While there are other couch-in-a-box brands to pick from, we like Burrow because they're focused on speedy delivery and convenience. The Shift sofa comes in a variety of boxes labeled with a number of different sizes that can be carried up stairs and assembled by one average-sized adult. It's a better choice for renters, as there's no extra cost for assembly using white gloves and delivery. Other furniture-in-a box firms don't offer this feature.
2. Rove Concepts Milo Sleeper Sofa
Rove Concepts is a direct-to-consumer furniture manufacturer based in western Canada. The new sleeper collection from the company includes Milo which appears to be created by midcentury modern masters. Milo is upholstered in a performance basket-weave fabric, making it suitable for pet owners as well as anyone who wants to keep their sofa looking new. It also comes with a queen-size hybrid memory foam mattress, as well as an ottoman that you can put on either side of the sofa to provide additional seating or more storage space.
This sofa bed is constructed with a hardwood frame that has been kiln dried which gives it a solid structure. It also helps keep it from warping over time. The curved lines and low profile make it appear sleek and elegant and can help make small spaces appear larger or make them feel larger.
This sectional is larger than the other options, so you'll have to measure your door frames to be sure it's a good fit prior to placing an order. Once it arrives the assembly process is straightforward and easy. The bed folds away from under the cushions of the seat with an invisible zipper, and folds to a platform-style mattress that's easier to keep clean than many of the other mattresses we've seen on other pull out couches.
Another advantage of this sectional is that you can alter the color of the legs, leg finish, mattress and fabric. You can pick between 217 colors to fit your decor. They also offer a large selection of pet-friendly and kid-friendly stain-resistant and indoor/outdoor performance fabrics.
The company offers a 30-day return window from the date of delivery, which is fairly typical in the furniture industry. This gives customers ample time to determine if the sofa is in line with their expectations. It's also a good alternative for those who live far from a retailer that sells these products.
The website is simple to navigate thanks to simple, easy-to-read layout that makes it easy to switch between product categories. It also has a search function that makes it easy to find specific products. In contrast to some of the more cluttered websites the one we have here keeps things simple, while retaining the requisite mystery to keep visitors interested in its products.
3. Anthro Home Dresden Sleeper Sofa
If you're a big fan of the tuxedo-style sofa (but do not want to spend a fortune on one of those frou-frou modular sofas that take up the entire living room), this sleek sleeper sofa is for you. Its simple lines and button tufting are classic while its super pillowy shape and trendy green velvet give it a modern feel. It's also compact, making it an ideal choice for smaller spaces. It's also extremely comfortable.
We are sure you're thinking: Why did we not include this sofa in our list of top sleeper sofas? It's odd however, it's also a great value. This Ikea hack is less than $400 and, thanks to the pull-out trundle the sofa can be easily transformed into a queen-sized bed. The trundle was a little shorter than the other pull-out couches we've tested, but the majority of customers said it provided enough space for guests. If you're not into the teal fabric featured here there are different colors.
Another option for smaller areas is this West Elm sleeper sofa, that can be set up in two ways. It's also extremely comfy, with the cushion for the seat that is rated 2 out of 5 in terms of firmness and a queen-sized mattress made from gel foam. It's also extremely customizable with 29 fabrics in stock and made-to order.
If you're looking for a traditional pull-out couch, this option is from Castlery. It's constructed of a durable and soft velvet in the color you prefer. It's smaller than the other sleeper sofas we test, which is perfect for smaller spaces, and the cushions are filled with polyurethane foam, so it should be as comfy as it can be. It's also reasonably priced and comes in a box making it easy to set up. Be aware that it's not as full as you'd like, and some customers have said it could be more durable.
4. Apt2B Tuxedo Sleeper Sectional
The Tuxedo sleeper sectional sofa with pull out bed is a stylish option that is able to fit into smaller spaces, including studio apartments. The queen-sized apartment sofa isn't as plush as our other picks but it's still comfy enough for a good night's rest. The modern couch features straight, high sides with flat wooden legs (rather than the traditional legs), which gives a modern look to any living room. It's also available in twin sizes in case you have smaller space.
Like other couches on our list, this one is covered in stain-resistant and pet-friendly performance fabrics that are easy to clean and wash. This couch is unique due to the variety of colors and customization options available. You can request free samples of fabric to ensure the color matches your decor and style perfectly.
This West Elm sofa is a bit expensive, but it's built to last. After a period of more than one year in our bustling household, which includes two children and numerous pets, we affirm that this sofa can handle anything your family throws at it from spilled milk to shattered glass. It's super durable, with an extra-plush feeling to the seat cushions as well as an extra chaise that doubles as an extra sleeping space when entertaining guests.
If you're looking for a budget-friendly alternative then this Ikea sleeper couch is a great choice. It comes with an easy modular design which you can customize to fit your needs. You can pick from 14 different colors and performance fabrics. We love the plush feel of its foam cushions as well as the reversible pillows for back that are covered in hypoallergenic microfiber for added comfort.
Its low profile may not be as comfortable for taller people, but it's a great fit for small spaces and those who are just starting out in the apartment market who require a couch that is stylish and functional. The solid wood frame that has been kiln dried is strong and the queen pull-out bed provides plenty of space for guests. The only downside to this bed is that you need to be cautious when building it, since the mattress is right next to the chaise. It's not difficult to slip a toe.(Image: https://cdn.freshstore.cloud/offer/images/7392/4269/merax-sleeper-couch-small-sofa-for-living-room-or-bedroom-including-pull-out-bed-sofabed-compact-pu-brown-4269.jpg)
