If you are in the market for a new couch in the living room or a bed for the guest bedroom, consider purchasing a futon sofa bed. Today’s futons are designed to complement the home by adding style and function to a room. Just in case you need a little convincing, here are the top 5 reasons to consider buying a futon sofa bed.
1. Futons are affordable
Futon sofa beds were created for savvy consumers that want to get the most out of their furniture at a great price. Futons are both a sofa and a bed, but priced cheaper than each. It is a two-for-one purchase that undeniably saves you time, money and space.
2. Great space-savers
One of the main reasons people buy a futon bed is because they are efficient space-savers. This is particularly useful for those that live in an apartment or small home. A futon is often smaller and lighter than a regular sofa and doesn’t take up too much space. The typical bed width and length of a futon is 35”W x 75”L. When not used as a bed, simply revert it back to its sofa form to free up walking space.
3. Offers great versatility
Another great feature many adjustable futon sofa beds offer is versatility. Futons such as the Alaba black and red split back futon offers additional configurations. A split back futon enables one person to sleep while the other person can remain seated. Other great functions many futon offer are: cup holders, magazine storage and hidden underneath storage.
4. Perfect for overnight guests and entertainment
Futons are perfect for entertaining guests. A Futon such as the Desta not only looks great, it has secret pull-out cup holders to hold your guests beverages. The best part? Futons are no longer notorious for being uncomfortable. Most are designed with plush cushions and soft padding which is the new standard. With that said, your unexpected guests can have a comfortable place to sleep.
5. Several styles to choose from
The demand for futons is at an all-time high. Because of this, adjustable sofas and futon beds come in a variety of styles and configurations. Some of the common styles include contemporary, modern, transitional, wood and metal futons. Simply choose the style and color that matches your existing décor and meets your needs.
