In which case you need a corner sofa
Where the corner sofa is not needed for sure is in the bedroom. It is unlikely that it will develop here. In other cases, just such a piece of furniture just can not do. This is especially true for rooms with a limited footage. Most often, a corner sofa is purchased for the following rooms and premises:
- Living room;
- Children's room;
- Kitchen;
- Offices and offices.

So, for a children's room it is better to prefer a sofa of a neutral shade, but having a high-quality berth. At the same time, transforming, the corner sofa should become as compact as possible. There should not be any hard protruding elements on it, otherwise the baby may get injured during active games. Good sleep is important for the child, which means that the materials of the sofa and its design should “work” in the name of this goal.
In living rooms, most often the family spends time watching TV, or guests gather for the holidays. Therefore, choosing a corner sofa here, you need to give preference to the model with the maximum number of seats. Materials should be non-marking, and even better with additional covers.
For kitchens, usually quite compact models of sofas (corners) are chosen. They differ from other options with a small landing depth and strong material. Also, they usually house a lot of drawers for storing kitchen utensils.
In the office, the sofa will definitely not be laid out. Therefore, the presence of such a mechanism is not required. Here you need to focus on the maximum number of seats, as well as on the quality of the material. Better if it is wear-resistant and easy to clean.
Design features
With the exception of classic office corner sofas, most customers prefer folding corner sofas. The best of the models are transformed into a full double bed. But such transformers are distinguished, first of all, by the transformation mechanism. Here is a list of the most common ones:
- Accordion;
- Dolphin;
- Eurobook;
- French clamshell.
What particular type of transformation to prefer, everyone must decide for himself. Moreover, each of them has a number of undeniable advantages and is convenient in its own way.
The accordion and the French folding bed are ideal for those who are interested in creating a seamless plane when folding the corner sofa. When folded, the accordion is a kind of “fold”, which when pulled out of the front border simply straightens out and turns into a bed. Sofa corner accordion Dallas 018
The second variation is a folded mattress with a folding frame, but just pinned down by pillows. As soon as they are removed, it becomes possible to decompose the mattress, folded in half. He is a full-fledged berth.
The dolphin and the eurobook form a sleeping place by folding two "pillows" perfectly adjacent to each other. In the dolphin, the proximal module extends and rises behind a special loop, forming a flat surface with the headboard.
At the eurobook, the front module extends, and the headboard needs to be "laid" manually.
As for the frame, it is better to choose a corner sofa from lightweight metal or solid wood. Iron models are too heavy and bulky. Blocks suggesting a berth should be assembled from a spring filler. He is guaranteed not to stray or lose shape. It also has good orthopedic characteristics.

Common mistakes when buying a corner sofa
When buying a corner sofa, you need to evaluate the size of the room for which it is purchased. No need to select overly massive models.
Do not be too gullible. Choosing a sofa model, you need to make sure not only of its external attractiveness, but also as the internal parts. So, you must definitely check how the internal parts are made. If they are made of wood, then everything should be well polished. Otherwise, mountains of sawdust will have to be swept out from under the sofa daily. Indeed, when used, they will crumble.
You also need to pay attention to the firmware of the product. The seams should be smooth, without divergences and protruding threads.
You should not buy a corner sofa "blindly", according to the picture. Be sure to ask to demonstrate the sofa in action - simply lay it out. After the seller has laid out and folded the sofa, you need to repeat this procedure several times on your own. No difficulties should arise.
You also need to ask about the availability of the necessary supporting documentation from the manufacturer. This is the only way to ensure the quality and safety of furniture purchased.
