Unfolding the mechanism of a Rapido convertible sofa is quite intuitive so you can enjoy a comfortable bed in just a few seconds by pulling out the front of the sofa. However, some precautions should be taken to avoid damaging the folding and unfolding system of the bedding of your comfortable sofa bed .
Check required before unfolding or folding a convertible sofa
A convertible sofa unfolds like an accordion into 3 parts . Consequently, this type of furniture saves real space when used as a sofa. But when unfolding a sofa bed, it is necessary to provide sufficient space at the front of the sofa so as not to hinder its free deployment.
For convertible sofas which are made up of 3 folding parts, allow at least a space on the front of the sofa with a length equal to 3 times the seat of the sofa.
Also take care that there are no carpets, storage or objects in the space where you want to unfold your convertible sofa. Indeed, it may be tempting to place a rug on the front of the convertible sofa, but when unfolding the convertible sofa to transform it into a bed, this rug may interfere with the sliding of the legs of the unfolding sofa.
Steps to unfold the Rapido convertible sofa
For quick and efficient opening of a Rapido convertible sofa , follow these steps!
-
Position yourself facing the sofa , making sure you have enough space in front of you to carry out the manipulations without hindrance.
-
Next, firmly grasp the top edge of the sofa seat and gently pull it toward you, making sure to maintain a smooth, controlled movement.
-
Take a step back while pulling on the front of the sofa, thus gradually unfolding the two parts which were previously folded on themselves at the backrest. This movement will reveal the structure of the bed hidden under the seat
If, after these steps you notice that the two parts making up the back of the convertible sofa have not fully unfolded, do not hesitate to reposition yourself on the side of the sofa to better understand the angle necessary for the final adjustment.
Apply gentle but firm pressure to the still slightly raised part of the backrest, until the bed is perfectly flat and ready for use. This ensures that the bed is fully extended and provides an even and comfortable sleeping surface.
Unfolding a sofa generally poses fewer problems for users than folding a convertible sofa .
Tips for safe use
For safe use of the convertible sofa, clear the space around it before unfolding, avoid forcing the mechanics and ensure that all parts extend correctly and lock in place.
Finally, handle the mechanisms of the sofa bed with care to prevent injury and damage to the furniture.
Advantages of the convertible sofa: practicality and optimized space
Convertible sofas are a more than welcome space-saving solution to optimize the space and functionality of your apartment, house or other interior.
Designed to serve as both a comfortable sofa during the day and a welcoming bed at night, they are a practical choice for small spaces such as studios, or as an extra bed in a multi-purpose living room such as a living room for example.
But their main advantage lies in the space saving they allow, thus avoiding the need to have a room dedicated to welcoming new guests.
In addition to their versatility, convertible sofas can reduce your decorating expenses by combining two pieces of furniture in one. A real relief for your furniture budget!
Finally, the wide variety of convertible sofa models allows you to choose the bench that will fit perfectly into your interior: bz, sofa bed, corner sofa, chaise longue... The choice is yours!
