Model "Salto-2" will appeal to connoisseurs of neoclassical and art deco furniture. Distinctive features of the sofa are oversized pillows and a special shape of the frame in the form of a shallow bowl. The advantages of "Salto-2" are a high-quality elastic filler element and a built-in bar. The cost of this model from the Britannica factory depends on the modification and upholstery material.
Additional comfort is provided by a special mechanism for transforming modules with a remote control or manual adjustment. The manufacturer suggests installing additional fences to hold the pillows during sleep to create more comfortable conditions.
Fully equipped, the weight of the sofa is quite large, so it will be very problematic to move it. In some situations, this will be a significant disadvantage.

How to choose?
There are a number of characteristics that need to be considered to determine the appropriate model.
- Transformation mechanism. If the sofa is planned to be used as a bed, then special attention is paid to this parameter. The easiest process to transform a sofa into a bed is for models equipped with an electric drive.
- Dimensions. Depending on the purpose of the sofa, its dimensions are selected. For models that will have to replace a double bed, their minimum size is 160 cm.For one adult or child, a sofa up to 120 cm long is suitable.
- Frame and filler material... High-quality filler material and a reliable frame ensure the durability of the structure and additional comfort during use (no squeaks, no extraneous sounds). The best choice would be models with a frame made of solid timber, with natural upholstery and high-quality filler or a block of springs.
