What Makes a Good Sofa Bed?

  1. Good Support

    • Good sofa beds have adequate support when used as a bed. Sofa beds are moving away from metal springs that sag to wooden slats. Look at where the support bars are located. Some sofa beds have moved the bar closer to the headboard to relieve the pressure a bar can put on the back.

    Good Mattress

    • Sofa beds must also have a good mattress. Sofa beds traditionally come with a rubber mattress filled with foam, which is not always comfortable. Now sofa bed mattresses are made or can be upgraded to mattresses with springs inside, like one you would put on a bed. Memory foam is also more comfortable than traditional foam rubber mattresses.

    Bottom Line

    • Invest in a good sofa bed that has both good support and a good mattress, and always test out the sofa bed prior to purchasing. If the sofa bed you prefer has good support, but not a comfortable mattress, upgrade to a spring or memory foam mattress from either the store from where you are purchasing the sofa bed or from a mattress store.
