Not having a spare room doesn’t mean you can’t have friends over. Multifunctional sofas are ideal for students' flat-sharing communities or private 2.5 room flats alike, as they sleep guests without taking up an entire room. You need some help finding the right sofa bed? Let’s take a look at a few styles and sizes.
You’d like spontaneous guests to stay over at your place, but you don’t have a spare room? No problem with a bed sofa. There are a variety of bed sofa models and sizes, ranging from pull-outs to futons and day beds. We’ve taken a closer look at a few bed sofas from our range.

Additional accessories for bed sofas
Moltons are a great way to protect the surface of your sofa bed. Even if it's used as a bed frequently, placing a molton in between the sheet and the sofa will reduce signs of wear and tear.
