Double folding bed

Rollaway beds have deserved fame for more than a decade. Only now today's clamshell is not much like the one that almost 40-50 years ago was in almost every family - a narrow and not very comfortable strip of fabric stretched over metal tubes. On today's cots, sleeping is no less pleasant and comfortable than on ordinary sofas and beds. Among them there are even double options - for young families who have not yet had time to get other furniture, and for those who appreciate the combination of compactness and comfort.

Today's clamshells are modernized old acquaintances, the main advantages of which include:

• A light weight, allowing you to lay out the bed independently even to one person.
• Mobility - the ability to rearrange and use products in any convenient place.
• Compactness - when folded, they can be pushed into a small corner or behind a closet, or simply leaned against a wall, where they become almost invisible and do not clutter the room.
• Affordable price, making this type of bed the most budget option.

Modern clamshells differ from their predecessors in that they:

• More comfortable and may well replace a full bed, even for a long time.
• More durable. Modern materials are able to withstand significant loads - and at the same time do not stretch, do not tear.
• More durable. High-quality clamshell, even with intensive use, will last more than a dozen years.

At the same time, a double folding bed is a construction resembling a double folding bed consisting of two frames fastened at the side. She has all the advantages of single "colleagues" doubled.

Cots are distinguished by:

• Frame fabrication materialwhich can be aluminum or steel. The first one is much lighter in weight, but it cannot withstand too much weight.The latter is much more durable, and therefore the products on the steel frame are able to withstand heavy loads, they are more durable.
• Base materialwhich can be fabric, in the form of an armor mesh or made of wooden plates or slats. Fabric clamshell - the easiest, but at the same time the most short-lived. But the models on wooden plates are considered the most durable. In addition, it is the toughest and smoothest coating of all. It has orthopedic properties, but requires a special relationship during operation.

Depending on the materials of which the components are made, a sleeping place can withstand various weight loads - from 100 to 250 kg. As for the length of the clamshell - it varies in a wide range. Here everyone chooses according to their preferences and the place where the product will be placed. The width of a double folding bed is usually 100-120 cm.

Modern models of folding beds have design features and other differences - many of them are completed with orthopedic mattresses, which differ in the type of stuffing. As the last most often used:

• Holcon - non-woven synthetic filler, consisting of spiral polyester fibers. The raw material for it is a holofiber that has undergone a thermal bonding procedure.
• Regenerated fiber - recycled waste of wool and wool. It can be natural and synthetic.
• Sintepon - the synthetic material differing in ease and elasticity.
• Foam rubber - polyurethane foam, mostly consisting of air, which provides it with a special softness.

When folding a folding bed, it is not necessary to remove the mattress from it - it folds perfectly with the bed. At the same time, mattresses with sinteponovoy and foam rubber stuffing more thin, but less comfortable. They are more suitable for folding beds that are not used regularly (for example, if they are laid out only for the arrival of guests).

All the advantages of a modern double folding bed can appear only if the product is of high quality. It is worth to approach the choice of a folding bed with not smaller responsibility, than the choice of any other furniture.

It is necessary to evaluate:

• The strength of the base of the product. The body must be solid, without chipping, with a special powder coating that protects the frame from rust and prolongs its service life. At the same time, when assembling and disassembling a clamshell, there should be no creaking, all parts should move smoothly, with little effort.
• Loadwhich a folding bed can withstand. It is necessary to relate it to the weight of those who will sleep on it.
• Convenience and quality of the mattress. To do this, you need to make sure that the filler is evenly distributed and try the mattress for rigidity. In addition, you need to pay attention to the materials mattress covers - whether they are environmentally friendly and well ventilated.

It is necessary to get acquainted with the certificates for all the materials of which the folding mobile bed is made. How to choose a clamshell, you will learn in the video below.
