Many people, when arranging small apartments, have to deal with the problem of a shortage of square meters. In this case, in order to organize a comfortable sleeping place using a minimum of space, you need to purchase compact sofas with a roll-out design. Such models are additionally equipped with boxes for linen, which also allows you to solve the problem of storing bedding.

Advantages and disadvantages

A pull-out sofa with a box for linen is a practical type of furniture that fits in the original interior of any room. Today, manufacturers produce various designs of sofas, which differ in texture, design, shape, size and transformation mechanism.

The main feature of roll-out sofas is that they are equipped with special rollers that allow the structure to move forward (sideways). In addition, they have spacious boxes for storing bed linen.

Let's consider the main advantages of such models.

  • Convenient folding mechanism. In order to organize the sleeping place, it is enough to pull the handle located at the bottom of the seat. Both young children and the elderly can cope with this task.
  • The pull-out sofa is compact, because when folded it takes up little space. It can be placed close to the closet, wall, or pushed into a niche. When unfolded, the furniture quickly turns into a spacious and comfortable bed.
  • Durability and strength... Such structures serve for a long time and do not require replacement of folding mechanisms.
  • Huge application possibilities... A pull-out sofa with a box for linen can be installed in the living room, bedroom, and children's room. Sometimes it is placed in the kitchen, if the area of ​​the room allows. In this case, the sofa acts as an additional sleeping bed for overseen guests or visiting relatives. This design looks good in an office or on a loggia.

As for the shortcomings, such models in the unfolded form are placed at too low a level. In addition, the berth is composite and uneven.

What are they?

The roll-out sofa is characterized by simplicity of design and high strength. To unfold the berth, you only need to take the strap located under the seat in your hand and pull it forward.

Pull-out sofas with a linen box can be either single or double. One-bedroom models are ideal for furnishing small apartments with limited free space. They are usually placed in the living room, nursery or bedroom. The fold-out double sofa takes up a lot of space, but when folded it is compact.

According to the type of design, roll-out sofas are divided into straight and corner sofas. The first option is chosen if the sleeping place needs to be located along one of the walls, and the second - when optimal use of space is required. The most comfortable are the models that move forward and have armrests. They look gorgeous in a minimalist style.

The armrests have their advantage - they increase comfort during rest and ensure safe operation in children's rooms.

Pull-out sofas can also be distinguished by a folding mechanism - in addition to a roll-out one, there are other folding options.

  • "Accordion"... Outwardly, indeed, it resembles a musical instrument. Sofas with such a mechanism are produced of a straight type and are additionally equipped with a box for storing linen. The mechanism is activated by raising the seat until a click is heard. Then the backrest needs to be pulled towards you - and it will move apart.
  • "Dolphin"... Similar models with a spring block are available in the corner type. To prepare a sleeping place, you need to roll out the base of the frame, which can be easily transformed into a bed.
  • "Book". This is a classic model, which differs from the previous ones with an affordable price and a spacious linen box. The only drawback of these sofas is that when unfolded, they fall back, so they require space behind the back.

In addition, the use of the mechanism is complicated; it takes a lot of effort to raise and lower the backrest.

  • "Eurobook". It is a more improved version of the "book", in which the structure is pushed forward, and then cushions from the back are placed on the base.
  • "Pantograph"... A modern model that, when unfolded, does not damage carpets and parquet floors. Instead of rollers, such sofas have a spring element that holds the seat above the floor.
  • "French clamshell"... Furniture with this mechanism is usually purchased for guests, since with frequent transformation it will last a short time (it will begin to stagger, sag and creak). To get a berth, you first need to remove the pillows, then pull out the mechanism and fix it in a horizontal position.

Minus design - difficult use, lack of a linen box.

Materials and design

Roll-out sofas are made of various materials, with the most reliable and high-quality products from solid wood. They have a noble look and fit perfectly into any interior. For the production of expensive models, beech and oak are usually used, for budget models - walnut, linden and maple. Birch furniture has proven itself well.As for linen boxes, they are made, as a rule, from chipboard.

The upholstery of sofas can be represented by both leather and textiles. It is recommended to purchase models with upholstery made of natural fabrics for the bedroom. - they are very pleasant to the touch (tapestry, chenille). Leather furniture looks decent in living rooms and kitchens, it is highly durable and undemanding to care for.

Many manufacturers choose as upholstery and artificial materials, which include polyurethane, eco-leather. They are characterized by an affordable price, are resistant to abrasion and outwardly differ little from expensive leather. For example, an excellent choice for arranging a living room will be a sofa made of imitation fish skin - This material has a texture consisting of many uneven stripes, it is durable and can be painted in any shade.

As for the filler, then the cheapest and most affordable material is foam rubber, but with frequent use of the structure, it will quickly lose its original shape. It is very popular and polyurethane foam - it is durable and absolutely safe for human health. For people who have problems with the spine, it is best to choose furniture with orthopedic mattresses. They relieve stress and improve sleep quality.

When buying sofas with a roll-out mechanism, it is also important to pay attention to their design, which should harmoniously fit into the overall interior of the room.... For small rooms, you need to select soft products of light shades, the only difficulty is that they require frequent cleaning. Dark colored sofas look great in spacious rooms.

Designs with monochrome upholstery are considered an excellent choice. In order for them to blend well with other design items, their shade should be similar to the color palette of the wall decoration. Colors such as ivory, gray and white are in vogue now.

So that such a neutral style does not seem too boring, the room should be well lit.

Natural shades such as brown, muted blue, beige. Furniture with a similar upholstery color must have wooden elements. The same apartment owners who prefer to see more bright colors in the interior are advised to purchase red or yellow sofas. They will go well with the rest of the interior items (vases, paintings, pillows).

Dimensions (edit)

A huge role in choosing a particular model of a roll-out sofa is played by its size. The most popular are products with a width of 120 cm and a depth (folded) of 0.91 m. Double-bed models with a folding dolphin system usually have dimensions of 1.9x1.2 m.
