Design sofa beds – for comfortable sitting and relaxed sleeping
A sofa that converts into a bed is essential if you like having guests. As comfortable seating, sofa beds invite you to sit together before turning into comfortable design beds for the night in just a few simple steps. A small, compact sofa bed is a quick sleeping solution for any room. But a sofa bed isn't just for friends and family. Especially in smaller homes, these combined pieces save a lot of space – and money – because you get two pieces of furniture in one. A sofa bed with a mattress and separate base or a compact fold-out design sofa – at Connox, you'll find a variety of high-quality versions.

1. The sofa bed: a multifunctional transformer for every room
You might be wondering what exactly a sofa bed is and how it works. A small sofa bed works as a practical guest bed in the living room or guest room, and a flexible sofa bed in an elegant grey is also a space-saving solution for studio flats. By day, a sofa bed with a discreet design fits into any interior; at night, it becomes a cosy single or double bed. The modern Metro sofa bed by Softline combines Nordic understatement with pleasant seating comfort. The vision: the Danish manufacturer's innovative products are designed to make the best possible use of the available living space. Whether you prefer a 2-seater or a 3-seater – a sofa bed is quick to convert and comfortable, making it suitable both as an occasional and a permanent place to sleep.
2. From sofa to bed – conversion made easy
A design sofa bed converts quickly and easily from sofa to bed and back again. Before you buy a sofa bed, though, think about how the conversion mechanism affects the space you need. If you'll be sleeping on the sofa bed every night, make sure you can easily manage the mechanism on your own. A classic sofa bed with a pull-out mattress, for example, is particularly practical if your sofa stands against a wall. There are also stylish sofas with a fold-down or removable backrest, such as the Remix Nightcouch with its Scandinavian design. With it, The Hansen Family offers a versatile design sofa bed that can be positioned crossways or lengthways as you wish. Thanks to its pull-out slatted base, the sleeping area can be made even larger.
3. Quality upholstery for comfort
The upholstery of our sofa beds is made with fillings such as high-quality polyurethane foam or multi-layered cotton with a foam core, which adapts ergonomically to the contours of your body and provides good insulation. With heavy use – for example, a sofa bed for everyday sleeping or in a children's room – choose the cover carefully too. Hard-wearing covers made of wool or cotton blended with polyester, polyacrylic or polyamide are exactly right here. The soft or smooth upholstery and mattresses sit on stylish bases made of wood or metal. If you're unsure, simply contact our knowledgeable team for detailed advice before you buy your sofa bed.
4. A design sofa bed for every interior style: from minimalist to unusual
Should your sofa bed harmonise with your existing furniture, or do you love a deliberate break in style? A sofa bed in subtle grey goes with most existing furnishings, while a black sofa bed looks exclusive. Other colours such as red or yellow make great eye-catchers. A high or low backrest also affects the overall look and how comfortable the sofa is to sit on. The dimensions when folded and unfolded also determine how easy it is to set up and how comfortable it is to sit and lie on. Some sofa beds have armrests that form part of the sleeping area. Depending on how many armrests are folded down, the stylish Bebop sofa by Danish family business Karup serves as a daybed or as a bed for overnight guests.
5. Hygienically fresh for a good night's sleep
If your sofa bed is used for sitting during the day and sleeping at night, the cushions and covers need to be easy to clean. Simple dry cleaning is possible if the cover is removable. In between, you can remove fluff from the upholstery with a vacuum cleaner on a low setting. If there's a stain, test special stain removers on an inconspicuous area first. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions. With a sofa bed whose mattress is completely removable, even the base is particularly easy to clean. The on-trend Roots sofa bed by Karup, available in two versions, has a removable futon mattress. For the first three to four months, it should be turned every two weeks so that the natural material settles evenly.
6. How much does a well-designed sofa bed cost?
Connox has sofa beds to suit every budget. In our online shop, you'll find small folding sofa beds for less than €500. Various models from Karup sit in the mid-price range, at around €1,100. For particularly fine pieces from The Hansen Family or HAY, you should budget a little more. The price of the same model can vary depending on the type of cover fabric.
