Folding sofas

Living in conditions of constant competition among themselves, furniture manufacturers do not stop for a moment the search for new solutions to maximally satisfy the needs of potential customers, thereby striving to ensure stable demand for their products. The price lists of leading suppliers include thousands of models, so when looking at the catalogs, many buyers get their eyes wide open and it becomes difficult to decide which one is best to choose. Due to the not-so-low prices, the trial and error method is unacceptable, since throwing away an item that doesn’t fit and buying a new one, as is often done with penny items, in this case, if it works, not many people can do it. In order to prevent an irreparable mistake, it is better to know in advance what will be better in the current situation. For example, to answer the question what to prefer - folding sofas or their analogues, first you need to thoughtfully evaluate all the pros and cons, discard all clearly unacceptable groups, thereby narrowing the circle of applicants for purchase, and then compare them individually. 

Most people, when choosing the final furnishing option, are guided by three criteria that have different priorities for each specific case:

• available free space for accommodation;

• functionality available to cover all needs;

• price.

Although there is also an important fourth, namely the correspondence of the appearance to the design already existing in the room and the individual taste preferences of the owner, it still concerns not the groups themselves, but rather the specimens belonging to each. In any of them, their number is impressive, so a decision on this undoubtedly important issue usually never causes any particular difficulties.

Folding sofas were originally designed to satisfy the first criterion on the list, so they turn out to be very useful in small spaces. When unfolded for the night, they provide a comfortable bed for two people to sleep at once, and when folded during the day, they do not clutter up the central part of the room, freeing up space for free passage and even physical education or active games with children.

Also, the first criterion from the list is fully satisfied transformable sofas, the folding mechanism of which, although different from that of the representatives of the group described above, has the same goal of saving free space in small rooms. If the rooms are large, then two other criteria will be a priority, each of which is satisfied by other types of furniture.

Corner sofas

For the most complete coverage of comfort needs, it would probably be best to corner sofas. This is due to their inherent features, the most important of which are worth not only listing, but also describing in more or less detail. Here are the most important of them: 

1. The geometric L-shape in plan not only contributes to the most complete coverage of little-used space in the corner of the room, but also solves the problem of seating on the long and short sides near the table during a family gathering or event with guests on the occasion of any memorable date.

2. When resting in a lying position with your head in a corner, an unoccupied horizontal platform is formed directly in front of your face. By placing a plate of food, a bottle of drink or a pack of goodies there at arm's length, you can make your stay even more comfortable, since you no longer need to get up and take what you need from the coffee table or go to the kitchen to get it.

3. The presence of comfortable headrests allows you to completely relax your muscles, while minimizing the load on all parts of the spine without exception, including the cervical.

In addition, of all the types of sofas, corner sofas provide the largest number of seats, which is very useful when friends, acquaintances or neighbors visit to watch a TV series or a football match together.

Office sofas

The cost of furniture items is important not only for low-income citizens, but also for administrators of various organizations, establishments, companies and banks who are responsible for furnishing workplaces and reception areas. Inexpensive office sofas best of all others satisfy the third criterion from the list, therefore they are most often chosen during the mass purchase of large quantities of products from domestic furniture factories. In addition to their low price, they have other advantages for use in public and work places, the main of which are long service life and simplified maintenance of room cleanliness.
