how to choose the ideal Futon sofa bed for your home

The futon sofa bed can be a very useful piece of furniture, especially if you have guests and you have a guest room to accommodate them. Alternatively, if you live in a very small space such as a studio apartment, you may want something that can be used as a sofa during the day and then as a bed for the night.

For which Purpose?

Think about exactly what you need the futon sofa bed. If it is only for occasional use at night when you have guests, and usually will remain in an upright position, then probably you will be served by a cheap futon.
If, however, you'll use it regularly as a sofa and as a bed, it will be much more profitable to spend a little more money and buy something that lasts longer. Preferably choose one that has an extensive warranty, so if it is broken you will be covered.

In which Size ?

Most Western futon sofa beds are at least the equivalent of a small double bed. However, that is not always very comfortable for a couple, so if you know you will share your futon, or you'll have guests who come on business, you have to think of something bigger.
Of course, you also need to consider the size of the space you're going to put it; in this case, a smaller size may be more convenient. And do not forget to make sure you have space in the room to open the futon!
