Different Types of Sofa Beds

There are many different sofas available and are a great variations of sofas that offer the flexibility, by means of extra sleeping space and extra comfort.

Click Clack Sofa

Sofa beds can be made from a variety of materials including ones with cotton or polyester covers, suede effect or leather and are also available in many different styles to suit the layout of your room. As well as the traditional two or three seater sofas, small chair beds and corner group sofa beds are also widely available . Corner sofas can be a great way of utilising the space that you have. The main part of the base simply folds down to create a large rectangular sleeping area.

The simplest sofa bed has foam mattresses and are usually the least expensive. These are normally small sofa beds and by removing the loose cushions, the seating area folds down to create a mattress which lays on the floor. These are usually designed for occasional use as they are not made for constant wear and tear on them. These are suitable for a guest bedroom or in a child's bedroom for when friends stay over night.

Clic-clac sofa beds have sprung backs which simply click down backwards to form the other half of the sofa bed along with the seating area. These are more durable than foam sofa beds and are more suitable for every day use as a sofa or a bed.

A futon is another option to consider. These are similar to clic-clac sofa beds but have wooden or tubular steel frames which are visible. Futons are suitable for bedrooms, but not really suited to living rooms if you wanted to go for a matching set as you wouldn't be able to get other sofas or chairs to match. If you live in a small modern apartment though, a futon could be the perfect solution as they have a contemporary look and offer solutions to your seating and sleeping arrangements and some have storage drawers underneath them too.

If you need a sofa bed that will be used on a regular basis, both as a sofa and a bed, then a metal action sofa bed should be your first choice. This style of sofa bed is often available as an alternative to regular sofas and chairs in many sofa stores, so are a good choice if you would like a sofa bed in your living room. They work on the same principle of pulling out the seating area, but the mattress is metal action and is not directly lying on the floor. It is held up by the metal legs at the same height as the sofa seats, so it would feel more like a bed than the foam mattress sofa beds.

Remember to consider how a sofa will be used, who will use it the most and which room it is likely to be situated in before making a decision on which sofa to buy.

What Makes Modern Futons Different

When people hear the word futon, they may conjure a specific image in their minds. A wood slate frame, wooden arms, and a bulky cushion are the first thing that people may imagine when they hear about futons. It may surprise them to learn that modern futons are different. The word futon is used to describe certain types of furniture that may not resemble a traditional piece of furniture. Other times, manufacturers have different terms to describe what people would think of as a futon.

What is a futon?

Click Clack Sofa

Traditionally, a futon is a wooden frame that can be transformed into a couch or a bed. This piece of furniture has been altered by manufactures so that the word can be defined as a piece of furniture that serves more than one purpose.

No longer made only out of wood and cotton mattresses, several different types of futons can be purchased and used to create a living room suite or furniture for a family room.

One example would be setting pieces next to one another to create a sectional. A lounge futon can seat one or two people and has no armrests. The only piece that bends is the one that supports a person's back or shoulders and is arranged so the person is sitting up or lying down.

A lounge sofa can be placed next to a two-seat futon. Then, an end table can be placed in the corner, and a three seat futon can be placed at the long end of the room. This creates a sectional look out of individual pieces of furniture that are more functional separately than a traditional sectional.

A futon bunk bed is a two-seat futon that is connected to a loft bed. This creates additional space for a dorm room or a child's room. As a couch, students can use the futon to entertain or watch TV. Then they can open it for guests to sleep on.

For dorm rooms, modern futons can be used as a way to diversify a space. Used as a couch during the day and a bed at night, the dorm room can look like a living room or a bedroom depending on what a student wants to have at any one time.

There are also outdoor futons and swing futons for patios or porches. While many company's call lounge chairs futons, a more traditional futon can be used to create an outdoor living room. A swing futon is a rocker swing with a futon as the seat. This can make a nice hammock when in the reclining position.

Not all futons are equal

Some products that resemble futons have other names. Click-clack bed looks like a traditional sofa, love seat, or chair. It has a metal frame covered with cloth, suede, or leather and transforms into a bed using a series of hinges. Some click-clack beds have traditional arms that are removed, while others are designed so the head and foot of the bed bend up to create armrests when it is in a couch form.

Some types of furniture are incorrectly called futons. Often, manufacturers call a platform bed a futon. These types of futons are sold for pets as well as humans. Futon mattresses are mattresses stuffed with a cotton blend. One company makes a line of infant futon mattresses. There are stuffed mattresses that can be used with a bassinet or layette.

When a person wants to buy a futon, they should understand the differences. Modern futons include different styles, and some of these types of futons may not be what the person is looking for. It is important to see a picture of the item or view it in person before buying it to make sure it is the type of futon that the buyer has in mind.

What To Do About Lingering Cat Urine Smells

When you are a cat owner, you do not want your home to start to smell like a litter box. There are many things that you can do about that lingering urine smell when you have cats in your home.

Click Clack Sofa

In your home with cats, the worst thing that you can have is a home that smells like cat urine. This is a big problem as most people who walk into the home will smell the lingering odor and not like it. When you have that cat urine smell in your home, it's hard to get rid of. Find out what you can do to help.

Click Clack Sofa

You need to first fix the root of the problem, rather than just purchase products that simply mask the unpleasant smells. You might have a cat or two in your home that are urinating around the house. You can get rid of the smell but it's pointless if it keeps coming back because of this issue with your pets. Many times there are a few reasons for this. Most of the time it's a medical issue. Your cat doesn't mean to and need to be taken to a vet. The second reason is a territorial problem. The cat is marking territory.

You need to go around and remove the old urine stains in your home that are causing the odor. The best way to do this is using an ultraviolet light to find the spots on the carpet that needs to be cleaned. Use cat urine products that can be bought at your local pet store on the carpets and other flooring types to remove the urine.

You need to change the litter box more often. This isn't an issue with the box itself. It's an issue with your cats. Some cats are picky about this. If it's somewhat dirty, they will use another part of your home. If it's cleaner, your cat has a higher chance of using the box than another part of the house.

Use cat urine repellent products. These are great for those cats that keep using the same spot in your home. These products repel the cat from that area helping you protect the problem areas of your house more.

Air freshening products can be used in your own. Get the kind that automatically works all day long which keeps the air much fresher. This will cover and mask any odor that might still be in the room.

Futons offer flexibility. They are great for converting a home office when the in-laws make a surprised visit, or providing extra space in a cramped dorm room. Outdoor futons even make a place to relax while sitting by the swimming pool or the outdoor fireplace. Not every location has a wide selection of futons. Futons online offer people the ability to find the futon they are searching for when they can't find it where they live.

Click Clack Sofa

Less Inventory

Click Clack Sofa

Many different types of internet sites sell futons. Some are furniture stores that combine brick and mortar locations with e-commerce sites. This allows the company to offer customers a wide variety without having to carry a large amount of inventory at each location. As businesses try to cut costs, they try to reduce the amount of inventory they carry, as unsold inventory is a drain on their resources.

A customer may come into a store with a specific request. The request may be for a particular style, or it may be a specific color. A woman may want to purchase a futon that will match the furniture that is already in the room. On the other hand, she may need a click-clack bed to place in the recreation room in the basement and the store only carries futons. Futons online allow the store to provide a valuable service without the necessity of carrying rare items at each physical location.

Limited Choices

Some people may live in a small town or a rural area where store choices are limited. If they are looking for a specific item, they may need to take their search online in order to locate the futon they want. This also solves the problem of delivery. Some stores have a limited delivery service area, especially if the customer lives in a remote location. Online stores deliver via major carriers, such as UPS, and are willing to deliver to most areas.

Drop Ship Options

Futons online offer a possible solution for a parent who wants to purchase a dorm futon for their child who goes to college out of state. Purchasing a futon at home and driving it to the dorm may not be a viable option. Finding the futon, their son or daughter wants at the stores around the college may not be possible either. Most online stores will deliver the item purchased to an address that is different from the billing address. This lets parents buy what their children need and have it delivered right to the door.

Savings

There are people who are bargain hunters. While they may have shopped at all of their local stores, he or she is convinced that a better deal lies over the next hill. Online futons provide the thrifty shopping with the option of comparing online and offline prices. Some stores will cut their price if they are told that a better deal exists online.

There are some problems with buying a futon or any item online. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but it isn't as good as seeing an item in person. Physically inspecting an item can provide the opportunity to determine the quality of the product, and if it will be suitable for its intended purpose. A futon that is to be used in a child's bedroom may need to be able to withstand more wear and tear than a futon in a home office. Not all futons are made to withstand that kind of use.

A futon can be heavy, which often increases the price of shipping. Most online companies charge for shipping based on the size and weight of the item. The cost of shipping the piece of furniture may offset any savings the buyer received by purchasing the product online.

There are times, however, when buying futons online is a person's only option. If this is the case, comparison-shopping will help save money, and help the customer find the best futon for their situation.

Convertible Chair Beds Are Trendy and Functional

Everybody has heard about convertible sofa beds, but did you know that you can also get a convertible chair bed? Let's take a look at a couple of different styles, who makes them, and why you would want one.

Click Clack Sofa

Two manufacturers of the convertible chair bed are Wholesale Interiors and Furniture FX. Both companies are relatively new in the industry, both having been around for less than ten years.

Click Clack Sofa

Wholesale Interiors has only been around since 2002, and in a short time has become one of the largest furniture wholesalers in the country. They manufacture four different product lines in a wide range of styles ranging from traditional to modern. Some of their more unique styles is in the convertible chair bed. Their basic chair has a long fold up cushion which serves as the back, folds 90 degrees for the seat and then doubles back on itself to double the thickness of the seat. The cushion sits on a metal base with legs. The base extends out, and the back is adjustable to be upright, flat or half way in between. For a bed, pull out the legs, lay down the back and unfold the cushion. If you want a lounger, just recline the back 45 degrees, stretch out and relax!

But even more unique is their double convertible chair bed / sofa. This piece of furniture has two cushions similar to the one above, and is the ultimate piece of adjustable furniture. You can have them side by side on their base to resemble a couch. Or, the base will extend out sideways, separating the two cushions, to become two chairs with a low table between them. Or, you can then swivel the chairs to face each other with a small table in the middle. Finally, with both chairs facing forward, legs extend straight out to convert either one or both chairs into a bed, either fully reclined or with the back partially up like a lounger. So, you can have a bed for either one or two people. Truly a versatile piece of furniture!

Furniture FX is a California based company that labels themselves as a "fashion forward lifestyle furniture company". Their three focuses are fashion, with designs that reflect elements from today's society; quality, by manufacturing their furniture to stringent market standards; and reliability, by backing all of their products with a manufacturer's warranty.

The convertible chair bed that they manufacture is a completely different style than the one's made by Wholesale Interiors. It is their Newport convertible chair that looks like a regular, comfy arm chair with a durable and easy to clean microsuede upholstery, nice solid wood legs and a solid hardwood frame that is kiln dried. However, the back can fully recline using the same click clack mechanism that they use on their sofas. This gives you 2/3 of the bed (or a bed suitable for a child). The rest of the bed is formed by adding a matching storage ottoman giving you a single bed.

So, why would you want a single convertible chair bed? Well, they take up very little room, being only a chair, but still provide a bed for visiting guests. Which is great if you do not have a separate guest room. They are also very modern and fashionable, and sure to catch the attention of any visitors. So it is also an instant conversation piece!

Pros and Cons of Three Upholstery Options For Your New Convertible Sofa

A convertible sofa can be a great investment; after all, you are getting a two for one deal. A bed and a couch all in one, all for one cost instead of two. You get a nice and comfy sofa for day use, and a regular size bed for night time sleeping. If you live in a small, studio apartment, you may use the bed nightly. Or you may just need it for occasional use when guests stop by. You may feel ready to buy, but before you go out and purchase your perfect convertible sofa, first you have to define what is "perfect" for you.

Click Clack Sofa

Obviously you have to consider the style, such as a futon, a pull out convertible sofa, or a click clack style in which the back of the sofa lies flat. A lot of this is personal preference, and trying out different styles for comfort. My one word of recommendation and caution when style shopping is to make sure you try out both the sofa and the bed. Make sure both are comfy, and that the mattress is thick enough that there is no metal bars that can be felt through a too thin mattress.

Click Clack Sofa

The next important thing to consider is the upholstery finish that you want on your convertible sofa. There are three main categories of upholstery to consider. Let's take a quick look at each one and their pros and cons.

A Leather convertible sofa is hard to beat. They are extremely durable, leather will out last other upholstery by four times under normal use conditions. Other pros of leather include: it is easy to care for, easy to clean, smells great, looks great, is one of a kind since all leather has their own personalities, come in a variety of colors, stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer (contrary to myths that they are hot and sticky in the heat). I like leather, and it is hard to find a down side to its use. Often when people don't like leather it is for personal reasons, they don't like the use of natural materials, or they feel like there is animal cruelty involved in the animal industries. This I can respect. Otherwise, there are only a couple of real cons. One is its price. For a really good, high quality leather, the cost can be prohibitive. But, remember, a leather convertible sofa may outlive its non-leather counterpart by four times, making it less expensive in the long run. However, sometimes you have to consider your pocketbook in the here and now. The other is, if you prefer a pattern finish, then leather may not be for you since it come in solid colors.

Microfiber has become very popular in recent years for a convertible sofa. It is very soft, similar in feel to a suede, but is made of man made fibers. There are a lot of different types of microfibers, but for furniture it is designed to repel liquids. This makes for easy and quick clean up when spills occur, and if the liquid is repelled, it reduces the chance of staining. I have only seen microfiber couches in solid colors, usually earth tones though other colors are available also. Cons of microfiber include the fact that it is not biodegradable or made from a renewable resource (leathers and cotton are both biodegradable and renewable). Microfiber also tends to be flammable and emits a toxic gas when burning.

A regular fabric upholstery is the last great option for your convertible sofa. Many fabrics used on furniture is quite durable, though it will not last like leather. But one of my favorite things about a traditional fabric sofa is the wide availability of colors and prints, you can really choose something that suits your personality and says something about who you are. Many people also find a regular fabric more comfortable to sit or lie on, as I said, personal preference. The cons are that they are harder to clean, if you don't get to spills right away they may stain or need special treatment. You can protect fabrics today, or many already come with a stain guard, but you still have to act fast if an accident occurs.

Well, good luck in choosing your perfect convertible sofa. Hopefully, now as you shop you will have a better idea of what you like and want in your home.

Convertible sofa beds have become more popular in the last decade than they were in the decade before. I believe part of the reason for this is the change in design. Gone were the heavy and clunky hide-a-beds of the 70's and 80's. You know the style, the bed that pulls out from the couch with the metal bar that you could feel in your back through the wimpy mattress. Though this style is still available,other options are available. Such as the click clack sofa beds where the back of the sofa lies flat. Though this is actually a resurgence of a style of convertible bed that was around in the 1940's and 50's. The new style that really hit the market in recent years that led to a big market change in convertible sofa beds is the popularity of the futon.

Click Clack Sofa

At one time, when I thought of a futon, I thought of the special that you could find at discount stores. Black metal frame with a thin, 4" mattress. Not very comfortable as a sofa or a bed! But great for college students, newly married couples or anybody on a budget. But some people were able to see beyond the basics and the potential, and a couple of those guys were Mark Markos and John Widly. In 1986 they started American Furniture Alliance manufacturing bean bag chairs. But only a year later they expanded into futon convertible sofa beds. However, not the type mentioned above, but a real quality product that anybody would love to have in their home.

Gone were the tubular, metal frames that bent easily (especially in the middle where most people would sit), and in their place were all solid wood, or metal and wood frames of various styles. Styles range from solid sides with curved or angular lines to Mission style varieties, to sides with magazine holders and much more. There is also a wide variety of finishes available, from a light honey oak to a rustic finish to medium and golden oak, and if you like really dark wood, then go with a beautiful walnut or espresso finish. Their futons are stylish and durable, all hardware is hidden with wood plugs, and these convertible sofa beds are made only using select cut timber and tempered steel.

Not only is the frame great quality, but gone is the wimpy 4" foam mattress, and in its place is a 6" to 10" real mattress. Not only are there different thickness' available, but also different building components depending upon how much you want to spend and how much your futon will be used as a bed. All mattresses are made up of layers, and these layers can include convoluted foam, flat foam, density support or visco memory foam or even an inner spring coil like a standard mattress. All mattress insides are then wrapped in cotton before being placed inside the futon cover.

And talking about covers, I cannot even begin to describe the choices available! From solids to stripes to wonderful prints. Or you may choose micro fiber or leather. Let me just say that there is something for everybody and that they will have some type of upholstery that you will like.

Before American Furniture Alliance, a futon was a separate piece of furniture, but now it can be a part of a complete furniture set. Along with the futon, you can get a matching chair, that also reclines like the futon sofa, and can become another sleeper (especially for a child) when paired with the matching ottoman. Then complete the set with matching coffee and end tables.

Yes, convertible sofa beds have come a long ways, and so have futons. If a futon would serve a great purpose in your home, then check out American Furniture Alliance and what they have to offer. You will be pleased by the great variety of styles, finishes and upholstery choices available.

Convertible Sofa Beds - Three Different Styles

When I first think of convertible sofa beds, I think hide-a-beds, really heavy, and those brown patterned sofa beds from the 1980's - not attractive but still out there in student apartments. A sofa bed serves a great purpose, a couch by day and an extra bed at night for guests when you do not have extra room. So you want comfort and function, not always easy to accomplish. But the industry is always trying, so there are several options on the market of different types of convertible sofa beds.

Click Clack Sofa

Since I grew up during the 1970's and 1980's, the first type I think of is like the one I mentioned above: a pull out sofa bed. It looks like a normal couch, but then you remove the cushions and there is a bed that can be pulled out from the bottom of the sofa. The mattress on these is not as thick as a regular mattress, they usually range from 4" to 6", and they vary in comfort. They are always more comfortable if they are newer, and more expensive ones tend to have better quality mattresses. I have slept on this type of convertible sofa bed with various results. Some I could hardly move in the morning, and other I woke up feeling like a spring chicken. One really nice thing about this style is that if you use it regularly, you can leave it made up with sheets and blankets. This style most commonly comes in either a full or queen size bed, though you can also get a love seat that has a twin bed inside. You can also get these as part of a sectional.

Click Clack Sofa

When we owned a used furniture store, I came across another style of convertible sofa bed that I had completely forgotten about, the click clack style. I am pretty sure that the name comes from the sound that they make when they are converted from sofa to bed: click-clack-click-clack ... In this style there is a special type of hinging mechanism that allows the back of the sofa to lie flat. The early style of these have been around for about 60 years, but there are modern versions that are quite innovative. I have seen some, after they are converted into a bed, will have one side (not the back) that hinges up to a 45 degree angle to make more of a chaise lounge style, or that props a person up to more easily watch TV or read. One advantage to these over the pull out bed is that they take up less room to convert from sofa to bed. One challenge for manufacturers is to make the bed feel flat, no bump in the middle where the bottom and back of the sofa meet.

Another style of convertible sofa beds that became popular in the 1990's is the futon, which I believe originated in Japan. They convert the same way as a click clack bed, but typically have an all wood, or wood and metal frame. A "mattress" sits on the frame and bends in the middle when it is set up as a sofa. When you lay the frame flat, you have a bed with a regular, one piece mattress. Futons sometimes get a bad rap for not being comfortable, but only if you get the 0 special from a discount store. Those just don't last long, they have wimpy frames and only a 4" mattress. A really good quality futon will have about an 8" mattress, often with coils like a real mattress. These are quite comfortable for sleeping.

These are the three main styles of convertible sofa beds, and if you are in the market for one, you will find that they can be quite stylish, very comfortable and come in a variety of materials. Something to suit anybody.
