Choosing the right sofa bed

Look beyond the fabric: the mechanism, the mattress and the sleeping dimensions make all the difference.

Mechanism Rapido (opens in one movement), drawer (saves space), click-clack (simple and compact).
Mattress Opt for a quality core (HR or hybrid foam) for regular sleeping.
Dimensions Check the passage through doorways and the open dimensions (length/width of the bed).
Velvet Care Gentle brushing, light vacuuming, avoid direct sunlight, blot without rubbing.
