For apartments in which there is not much space, transformable furniture is very relevant. In this case, it is important to rationally use each square meter. This problem does not arise in large apartments and houses. However, in order to get additional seating, it is better to purchase a sofa that converts into a bunk bed.

You will have no problem with the combination of transformable furniture. It is well suited for any interior. At the same time, it is quite functional. This guarantees you not only beauty, but also convenience.

On sale there is a large selection of sofas that transform into bunk beds. A very large number of them are specially designed for children. However, there are models that are designed for adults.

Let's highlight the design features of the sofa, which transforms into a bunk bed:

• does not take up much space;
• can replace both a sofa and a sleeping bed;
• in addition to everything, it can have a table;
• such a sofa may have cabinets in which bedding can be folded.

In the classical sense, a sofa that transforms into a bunk bed has two separate berths. Namely: the lower, which occurs as a result of lowering the back of the sofa, and the upper, which is formed when the lower plane is rotated 180 degrees. For reliability, this design has special supports. This type of sofa, transforming into a bunk bed, has the simplest mechanism, which ensures safety and durability. However, the disadvantage of such a sofa is that there is a need to install brackets for additional fixation to the wall.

Another type that is ideal for a very small apartment or country house is a corner sofa that converts into a bunk bed. Such a model not only significantly saves space, even more than the classic version, but also looks quite interesting. It has built-in blockers that guarantee the safety of resting people both from below and from above. This type of furniture is suitable for both adults and children.

Another type is a two-tier composite type model. It also converts into a bunk bed. Its advantage is that, if necessary, such a sofa can be disassembled into two separate berths. This is suitable if, for example, the child is categorically against sleeping under the upper bed.

When buying a sofa that transforms into a bunk bed, it is very important to pay attention not only to durability, but also to the level of its safety, as well as to the weight that the sleeping place can withstand.

It is desirable that such a structure be protected against unplanned collapse. This is especially important when a child uses the sofa.And for an adult, this level of protection will be useful.

Such furniture must have strong fasteners for the entire structure, including mattresses. Many models are wall-mounted. This, of course, is not always convenient, but it is a good guarantor of safety.

On a bunk bed, there is always a risk of falling from the upper floor, so a plus for such a sofa will be the presence of fences that will prevent the sleeping person from falling.

Another important criterion when choosing such a sofa should be the simplicity of the mechanism for both disassembly and assembly. This is what will ensure the convenience of using this furniture. Obviously, the easier it is for you to cope with the mechanism of the sofa, the more enjoyment you will get. There are sofas on sale that can be folded very simply.

Please note that in modern models, stairs with flat steps are mainly found. Such a ladder is safer to climb, although not as comfortable as the sloped ladder used in older models. It should be noted that the ladder in such sofas is foldable; any defects and cracks are unacceptable on it.

The upholstery should match the interior of your room and its purpose. Do not forget that for a sofa that you will often sit on, it is better to purchase replacement covers that will be easier to subject to chemical treatment. So, you can protect your furniture from too early aging, stains and wiping. Thus, the furniture will serve you much longer.

You need to purchase a bed based on the height and weight of the intended owner. Not every structure can support a certain weight. Do not forget that if the sofa is planned to be placed in the children's room, then it is worth taking a model that exceeds the child's height. It is also important to pay attention to the height of the furniture. Too high an arrangement of the second berth can be not very convenient, and in the worst case, and traumatic. On the contrary, the location of the same place too low can cause discomfort to the one who sleeps downstairs.
