The Futon sofa bed
Summary

The sofa bed is the ancestor of all sofa beds. This simple and robust convertible sofa has not really changed its shape since its creation even if in terms of comfort it has greatly improved. It allows you to install a sofa lined with a comfortable bed with a slatted base and a quality mattress. It can be installed in a studio, a teenager's bedroom or a guest room and is totally suitable for occasional or daily sleeping.

Everything you need to know about the clic clac sofa, the first convertible

The clic clac sofa is a very easy to use convertible . It is made up of a box spring itself made up of a metal frame and wooden slats. The mechanism of the sofa bed is fixed to the base and allows the structure to be folded and unfolded with ease. To convert the sofa into a bed, simply fold the seat of the sofa towards the backrest. The clic-clac sofa seduces with its great simplicity and robustness. The sofa is covered with a cover for impeccable hygiene.

The sofa bed can be installed in any room in the house . Depending on the model chosen, it provides different levels of comfort. In a studio, opt for a sofa bed equipped with a thick mattress suitable for daily sleeping. In an office, it is very practical since it requires little clearance to open it and has a clever storage box under the seat. The sofa bed will also be an ideal complement in a teenager's bedroom where it will express all its modularity used for watching television with friends and converting into a comfortable bed once removed.

The sleeping comfort of your sofa bed is based on two main elements: the bed base and the mattress. The quality of the other parts of your sofa will mainly influence its durability. The bed base of the clic clac bench seat is made up of wooden slats. The quality of the box spring is assessed based on the size of the slats and their spacing. It is these two criteria which determine the quality of reception of your sofa bed.

Then the mattress of your sofa bed can be of different thicknesses. A mattress designed for regular or daily sleeping is at least 12 cm thick. It is most often made of high resilience foam, a material which will prevent the part of the mattress used as a seat from becoming deformed.

Among the sofa beds, the sofa bed is the most economical and has many advantages:

  • Simple and robust mechanics
  • A real slatted base providing a lot of sleeping comfort
  • A real mattress designed for sleeping every day whose thickness is not limited by the sofa's closing system as is the case for the bz or the rapido
  • A fabric cover to ensure perfect hygiene of the bedding
  • A storage box under the seat to hide duvets and pillows.

However, before opting for an inexpensive sofa bed, it is useful to compare the models.

The different click clack models

The sofa bed therefore offers a lot of pleasure while being economical. Each model has different features that you will need to compare before purchasing. It is first available in different dimensions. The 2-seater sofa bed is a standard sofa bed which sleeps 2 people. There are twoclick-clack dimensions : 140x190 and 160x200. The first corresponds to the usual size of any double bed. The second offers more comfort for sleeping as a couple and is particularly recommended for tall or heavy people.

If you are looking for a comfortable sofa bed, you will need to pay particular attention to the sleeping elements. The box spring must first be robust and made up of thick slats. It must offer a relatively rigid support to protect you from back pain. The clic-clac mattress must then measure at least 12 cm thick and will ideally be made of high resilience foam. Bultex is also a modern and innovative material which is used to manufacture high quality mattresses offering durability and optimal comfort.

The cheap clic clac does not have the necessary characteristics for regular or daily use. It will offer you little pleasure and will represent an unprofitable investment in the long term. Choose a sofa model on sale over a discount model. You will thus have the guarantee of a durable and suitable sofa while controlling your budget. A good clic clac price is between 800 and 1300 euros, but by taking advantage of sales and promotions you can benefit from discounts of 30 to 40% on the total price of your furniture.

The sofa bed also comes in many different shapes and materials . If you are looking for a designer sofa bed model, opt for a leather or imitation sofa . These timeless materials offer numerous advantages in terms of aesthetics, comfort and maintenance. Or, prefer a model in velvet fabrics, cotton or microfiber. Current fabrics offer a modern design and are easy to maintain. They are designed to limit the risk of stains and facilitate cleaning of the sofa.

Then, choose a color that is easy to combine with your current decor. The black sofa bed is stylish and modern. The white click clack, if more messy, offers chic and sophistication. With gray you are sure not to go wrong. This neutral color adapts to all styles of interior decoration. And by opting for a red click, you are making a very current trendy choice.

There are other types of convertible benches, so when choosing your sofa you can ask yourself the question: clic clac or bz ? The main difference between these two benches lies in their opening direction. The first unfolds parallel to the wall and the second vertically. Your choice between bz or clic clac therefore depends on the layout of your room to unfold your sofa bed with ease.
