Leather sofa bed

Leather sofas have a special charm. Such furniture is distinguished not only by its stylish, but also by its expensive appearance, which can transform any room, from a regular living room to the office of a reputable company. Designs of leather sofas equipped with folding mechanisms are especially in demand today. Let's get to know them better.

Many buyers opt for leather models with folding designs, as it is much easier to care for them than textile counterparts. From the surface of such furniture, you can easily erase a dirty spot or dust, without making special efforts and without resorting to special expensive tools.

This feature of the upholstery allows you to purchase a model of a light shade. For example, a white leather sofa will not lose its attractiveness even after many years, while the fabric version is likely to quickly lose its presentation.

It is worth noting the stunning design of furniture in this design. It harmoniously looks in a variety of interiors. This may be a regular city apartment, a large country house, office, reception, and so on.

Folding models are an excellent choice, especially if your home is not the most spacious.. Such specimens have been popular for many years, since they are multifunctional, but they do not take up a lot of free space.

Choose the perfect option is possible for any purpose. Cheaper are the instances in which there is a simple design, not designed for daily use.

But if you plan to use a bed in a sofa often, then you can turn to more modern and reliable systems designed for daily use.

Folding leather furniture can be equipped with different designs.

Ordinary straight models are suitable for both large and small areas. They take up little space and look great in many interiors.

Often in such designs folding mechanisms are located under the seats or under the back. They are transformed very quickly and easily, so even a child can easily cope with them.

No less popular today are stylish corner sofas with folding mechanisms. These options are more suitable for spacious rooms, as they take up more space. Corner structures are L-shaped and U-shaped.

In such multifunctional models there are more spacious and comfortable beds.

Spectacular sofas with corner designs are often equipped with additional options. For example, it could be:

• small bar;
• shelf for books and magazines;
• linen box;
• music Center;
• safe, etc.

Corner sofas, upholstered in leather, look very stylish. These models look great in modern interior styles.

Genuine leather is durable and wear resistant. This material for many years retains its presentation and looks expensive.

Soft and smooth skin is not subject to mechanical damage. It does not leave traces of iron inserts on clothing or accessories.

The main disadvantage of genuine leather is its cost. Not every consumer can afford to afford a beautiful and durable sofa upholstered in leather, with a folding mechanism.

There are more affordable alternatives to this material. For example, models of sofas are very popular, for the upholstery of which high-quality leatherette is used, resistant to color fading.

Leatherette looks expensive and attractive, so furniture with such upholstery is very popular for many years. However, it is necessary to take into account the fact that on the surface of such sofas small cracks and abrasions will appear over time, which can no longer be eliminated.

Today, synthetic eco-leather is widely used in various industries. In its design and texture, it practically does not differ from natural raw materials, but the process of its production is less energy-consuming and more humane.

The following materials are used to fill leather sofas:

• Elastic polyurethane foam. It can be block or cast:

1. Block is a large seams, which are obtained by gluing sheet material.
2. Molded polyurethane foam is made by filling in special forms with a special composition, resembling sour cream in its consistency. It is cast only in certain forms of the product. A little later, the cast filler solidifies and takes the desired shape.

• In high-quality luxury furniture, natural latex acts as a filler. It is eco-friendly and is made from hevea or sap from the rubber tree. Latex is breathable and very durable material. The average lifetime of this filling is 10 years.

• Non-woven material is lightweight and airy polyester. Such a filling is made for upholstered furniture from polyester fibers that do not cause allergic reactions.

• For filling modern sofas, such material as periotek is often used. It is a three-dimensional fabric, consisting of natural wool fibers or cotton.

• One of the cheapest is foam rubber. But, buying furniture with such content, be prepared for the fact that it will very soon lose its presentation and disappear.

Folding sofas are complemented by special mechanisms. Let us consider the most common options.

Models with a “book” mechanism have an easy and reliable construction. To fold a bed, one of the halves of the sofa must be raised and lowered down.

In many ways, the mechanism with the memorable name “click-klyak” is similar to the book. It differs from its prototype by the presence of additional provisions: half-sitting, reclining.

A popular mechanism is the “French clamshell”. It unfolds quite simply: first, the upper pillows are removed, then the entire structure must be lifted and pulled over.. After that, the mechanism should be put on the supporting legs.

According to the clamshell principle, sofas with the accordion mechanism are transformed. In such products, the edge of the structure is raised to a characteristic click, after which the mechanism can be pushed forward.

One of the most reliable is the Sedaflex mechanism. The design in the sofas with such a system, you must first lift up, pull over and put on the legs. Sedaflex sofas can be used regularly as they are very sturdy and reliable.

The most common are leather sofas in black, brown, white, cream, beige, red, gray, blue, burgundy and green.

A suitable model must be selected based on the basic color scheme of the room and interior in which you want to put it. Be careful with the products of black and dark brown color - they are not recommended to buy for small or poorly lit rooms.

If the free area of ​​the room allows, then you can apply to large models of direct construction or corner sofas. Their length starts from 180 cm. Larger versions have a length of 350 cm or more.

The most popular are double and triple sofas. Such options can be chosen for rooms of medium or small area.

Most often folding sofas put to living rooms. But a luxury leather model can also be placed in a study or bedroom.

The compact model will find its place in the hallway or in the kitchen. Leather is not a brand, so the conditions of such premises will not affect its appearance. In addition, some manufacturers specifically develop miniature models that will not only fit perfectly in limited conditions, but also become a bright accent of the interior.

The white sofa will look great on the background of the wall, decorated with decorative wood and stone and a light floor, complemented by a fleecy white carpet.

A red leather sofa with metal legs should be placed in a room with beige walls and a floor with a white glossy surface. Nearby you can put a red chair and a light wooden table.
