A folding couch can become a valuable decoration in any small apartment. But this piece of furniture has several varieties at once. Consumers should consider when choosing their features and the suitability of the design for a particular interior.

A folding sofa-couch, as the name suggests, combines the features of a regular sofa and a full-fledged bed. During the day, on such furniture, you can dine and arrange gatherings with friends and family. As night approaches, it can be easily transformed into an elegant and solid sleeping place. With the abundance of options available, you can customize the design to your liking. The foldable ottoman will perfectly fit into any modern interior and will not cause complaints even from the most picky owners.

Since the ottoman is equipped with simple transforming mechanisms most often, it is quite reliable and rarely breaks.

The sliding couch often has direct execution. This option is convenient and functional, which is noted even by picky consumers. The straight design is also appreciated for its attractive appearance, which suits arbitrarily fastidious owners. Roll-out mechanisms allow converting the product into a full-size bed.

Corner couch predominantly picked up in kitchens or dining areas.This design will fit perfectly into any corner of the room. The backrest merges smoothly into the sidewall. Transformation is possible in both single and double beds, depending on the specific design.

• allow rational use of space;
• provide the formation of stylistic accents;
• make it possible to change the appearance of the room with several movements.

A model that expands in length will take up very little space in the room. This solution fits harmoniously into any interior. There are a lot of models of this type, and sometimes because of this, choosing the right one is not so easy. Some modifications fold out to the side. In this case, after sliding the seat to the side, the laundry container opens.

This option may even be suitable for use in the kitchen. Models without armrests also deserve attention. Such ottomans look bright and unusual in any interior. The elimination of "barriers", however, makes it difficult to land from the edge during the day. However, for a night's sleep, this is more of a plus.

And the opportunity to plant several people at once will delight buyers. The effect of cluttering the room, which is characteristic of a large sofa of the usual kind, disappears. For your information: many models without armrests are angular.

The ottoman can have various transformation mechanisms. One of the commonly used is - "French clamshell". It has a sturdy frame. The product is transformed very simply. The cost of such a design is low.

The scheme is also popular "Dolphin". This design is highly reliable. The name of the mechanism was given for the special way of the folding parts. Their trajectory resembles a dolphin plunging into the waves after a jump. Dolphins' lifespan is very long.

And also the system is in demand "accordion". This name is also given by association, now with the "bellows" of the musical instrument of the same name. The berth is very wide and is located high above the floor. However, the accordion arrangement excludes the use of a linen drawer. In addition, serious weight restrictions appear.

The first step in choosing an ottoman is choosing the right place where it will be purchased. Preference should be given to large stores (preferably direct representative offices of manufacturers) or reputable websites. You should definitely study the reviews about specific brands and models.

Almost all convertible ottomans are now equipped with spring blocks rather than polyurethane foam filling. Springless models are significantly cheaper. However, their service life is also too short. When you need to provide yourself with an extra bed, it is very good if pillows are included in the package. The reliability of construction materials also plays a very important role.

You should also consider:

• workmanship of hidden parts;
• quality of fasteners;
• durability and serviceability of upholstery fabric;
• the style of the room;
• room illumination (otherwise it is impossible to choose the right color and its saturation).

This is how an attractive bed (or rather, an ottoman) might look like. The unusual geometric shape of this product immediately attracts attention. The individual inserts are color-coordinated to match the carpet. A bright picture and a curtain of rich color add real intrigue to the interior! In this case, a very light floor turns out to be a favorable general background.

This is another attractive folding couch. The high-backed double bed only adds charm and external charm to the room. The color combination with the carpet and floor is calm, which fits well into the classic interior. In general, a very bright environment is beneficial to the room. Decorative items are also visually combined with a sofa.
