What is a bz? A particularly compact sofa bed

The BZ
Summary

Everything you need to know about bz

When you buy a sofa bed you have the choice between two large families: convertible sofas and benches. The convertible or rapido sofa is made up of a designer sofa and a bed whose elements are independent of the seat. On the bench, the mattress is used for sleeping, but also serves as a seat for the sofa. In the family of benches, there are also different models including clic clac, bz and futon. The bz is therefore a bench seat.

It is therefore an articulated slatted base topped with a mattress, the whole being foldable into three. One of the great advantages of this type of bench is that you can choose your ideal bz dimension . You therefore have several sizes of sofa at your disposal: the 1-seater bz which is 80 or 90 cm wide and the 2-seater bz which also offers 2 dimensions, 140x190 and 160x200.

You also have the choice of the bz mattress which can be foam, Bultex or memory foam depending on the model. For a daily bed , for example, choose a mattress with a thickness of at least 12 cm. Some products have 15 cm mattresses for even more comfort. The cheap bz does not offer as much pleasure even if it constitutes an additional solution to combine sleeping and sofa.

The different models of bz sofa

Before opting for a bz sofa , it is important to compare the products to choose the one that best suits your needs. If the bz offers comfort quite comparable to that of a real bed, a cheap bz sofa will not bring you as much satisfaction. Often of Chinese design, these low-end convertibles are made up of not very robust mechanics, a weak base and a thin mattress. Most often you will even have to buy your cover separately, because it is not included in the price indicated.
  • In a teenager's bedroom, opt for a 2-seater bz sofa bed offering design and sleeping quality. Your child will have a nice sofa bed to invite these friends over and a bed with impeccable hygiene and comfort.
  • In a studio, choose a high-end bz convertible sofa if it will be used for daily sleeping. Without it, your convertible will quickly deteriorate and you will have to replace the mattress or cover after just a few months of use. Although this is not always true, in the case of the sofa bed, a high price is often synonymous with quality.
  • For optimal comfort, consider the bz Bultex sofa, equipped with a mattress from the famous French bedding brand.
  • And if you are looking for a single bed, thebz armchair is the perfect solution. This easy chair equipped with a box spring and a mattress makes an ideal extra bed.

How to choose your bz bench seat?

The bz bench is more than just a piece of furniture. It has several elements that are inseparable from the general comfort it will provide you. So, to choose a durable and comfortable bz daybed, here are the points that you absolutely must compare before buying:
  • The mechanics of your bz
  • The solidity of the base of your bench
  • The thickness and material of the mattress for bz provided
  • The quality of the cover offered

And if you decide to opt for an inexpensive bz bench seat, don't have too many illusions about the general quality of the product offered. This type of discount sofa bed, although attractive at first glance, is most often a waste of money and a poor investment. Fragile mechanics, low-end material, limited comfort, that's what you risk with a bargain price.

In some cases, the sofa cover is not even included in the budget. If you want to make a lasting investment, opt for a high-end model and if your budget does not allow it, wait for sales and look for a good deal from specialized sellers.
