I want to get a really beautiful sofa bed for my living room. I have scoured the internet and all the sofa beds I have seen are really, really ugly.I have a beautiful couch already, and it would be great if I could just get it converted to a sofa bed.so my question is, does anyone know of any furniture repair people who will do this? how much do you think it will cost?any recommendations will be helpful.(please don't post links to already made sofa beds)
I had the same problem a long time ago and what i did was place the sofa and loveseat face to face and made a bed, covered it with a nice comforter and threw in lots of big pillows, my nieces loved to sleep there and they wouldn't fall out of bed in the middle of the night....they were crazy sleepers, they used to roll off the bed every other night.
It would be theoretically possible to convert your sofa to a sofa bed, but probably not practical. If you take the sofa cushions off, you will find a set of coils underneath them, covered with fabric. To make a sofa bed, those coils would all have to be removed and the sofa frame would have to be completely empty. Then you would have to purchase a sleeper sofa mechanism. It would have to fit exactly into the empty space. You would then need to purchase a sofa bed mattress to place on top. The whole thing would cost hundreds of dollars and be of questionable stability. There is an inflatable product that would fit on top of your sofa and convert it to a bed, if that is what you are looking for. You can find them online. Although inflatable items tend to deflate when you least expect it...... Unfortunately I think you are better off just looking for a new sofa bed/sleeper sofa. Good luck!
