The leading position is taken by the foldable model of the sofa due to a number of characteristics that make it a truly necessary acquisition. Roll-out folding mechanism is still considered the most reliable and convenient method of transforming a sofa.

The peculiarity of this bed is the original roller construction, consisting of three parts.

On the inner sides of the seat there are wheels that, when unfolding a berth, move along special guides fixed on the frame of the structure. The movement of parts occurs without the application of large physical force, therefore often such furniture is installed in children's rooms - even a child can spread the bed.

This type of sofa has several important advantages that make it so popular with consumers. The main advantages of this model:

There are no things possessing only virtues, and a folding sofa has its drawbacks. These include a relatively small height of the bed - it is often located only twenty to thirty centimeters from the floor, which at first may be an inconvenience.

The disadvantages include the possible complexity of bringing furniture into the apartment,as often these sofas are non-collapsible designs. However, professional movers will easily solve this problem.

Manufacturers are constantly trying to complement the existing product line with new models, so that everyone can easily choose a product to any room and for any style of interior.

In addition to personal preferences, medical indications are of great importance. For example, doctors recommend many people to buy upholstered furniture with an orthopedic mattress, which will preserve the health of the spine. Older people will also enjoy instances with a retractable head restraint or with a foot rest, allowing you to relax after a hard day and restore and normalize blood pressure in the vessels.

By design sofas are:

• double rooms
• triple

• five-seaters and more

However, this classification is not very accurate, because each manufacturer can slightly change the parameters of furniture and, depending on this, indicate the number of seats.For small rooms in which, however, occasionally you have to leave friends or relatives for the night, it is recommended to install models with an extra bed.

In the corner sofas, usually located in living rooms or in kitchens, often used system "dolphin" (the main part is folded and is under the seat).
