What are the advantages of a Daybed?
Daybeds are a great space-saving dual-use piece of furniture. A daybed forms a comfortable sofa which can be used as a single bed with no or minimal conversion.
Are daybeds difficult to convert to a bed?
A daybed is space saving as it can be placed alongside a wall and takes up less floor space than a sofa bed or traditional sofa. Some models include a backrest bolster or cushions to make a cozy spot for reading or lounging.
Many of our daybeds only need the armrests to be adjusted flat to create the full sleeping length – just takes a few seconds – for example ROLLO; GHIA; ZEAL. Other daybeds need no conversion to be used as a bed instead of as a sofa – for example SLEEP; FRAME;
Our ZENZO daybed has a hidden mattress which allows the daybed sofa to convert into a full side double bed if needed. A great guest option built into the single daybed.
Are daybeds comfortable?
As the mattress on a daybed doesn’t need to fold-out to make the bed configuration, the daybed mattress can be made thicker and generally more supportive than some convertible sofa beds. Some of our daybeds come with a choice of mattress specifications and you can even choose a daybed mattress with pocket spring for regular use. FRAME ;
In which rooms are daybeds often used?
Daybeds are most often used in rooms in which you need dual function for example the home office. As daybeds are generally have a compact footprint they can provide comfortable seating in the office – but still give a great sleeping experience for guests when the office is used as a spare bedroom.
Other locations for daybeds are for additional seating when its also nice to be able to lie down for a snooze – for example conservatories or garden rooms.
Daybeds make good accent pieces of furniture in hallways and larger lounges with the combination of a contemporary daybed design with a “statement” fabric colour or fabric texture.
