Direct sofas with a box for linen

Direct sofas with a box for linen - one of the most popular models today. They are often chosen for small apartments where there is no separate living room, and if it is necessary the bedroom performs its functions. This design is most suitable for solving the problem of receiving guests and saving space.

Special features

At the moment in the stores you can find sofas of almost any size and color, which makes it easy to embed them in the specified parameters of the interior. At the same time there is a huge number of models with different mechanisms for assembling and storing things.

One of the most popular options is a sofa with a side wall. As a rule, the seat in this part is the lid of the box, which must be raised to take advantage of its space.

This model differs from an angular sofa in that the outer part does not have a side backrest and can only be equipped with a small armrest or not at all.

A minus of a similar design - most often manufacturers do not supply a box with a special support inside. Because of this, you have to hold the lid, which can be very inconvenient and will require the help of a second person or self-production of a prop.

You can avoid this in case the lid folds back 90 degrees. In this case, it should not include the back of the sofa in its design, otherwise it will rest against the wall. If the dimensions of the space allow and the sofa is in the middle of the room, it will not be a problem.

Another option that is much better suited for a very small room is a narrow sofa, which is expanded by lowering the backrest. Following the back of the sofa seat drives off forward, turning into a continuation of the bed, which forms the reverse side of the back, where the mattress is fastened. The box for linen at such models is directly in sitting. Its lid folds back to 90 degrees, so using it is much more convenient. However, due to the small size of such a box can not accommodate more than one set of bed linen.

Sofa "Senator" has a number of varieties - it can be single, one and a half or double.Often it is produced with additional devices in addition to the drawer - shelves on the armrests or on the side, side table, dresser with shelves for books and magazines. As a rule, the “Senator” is a sofa with comfortable wide armrests, which in a number of models are turned into small additional drawers.

But its main advantage is in the convenient “Eurobook” mechanism. It implies that the backrest cushions are lowered in almost the same way as the previous model, only before that, many models will have to independently push the seat. However, pay attention to the fact that such a structure is supplied with a spring mechanism, and therefore, requires appropriate care to ensure long-term operation.

In general, we can say that this is one of the most successful versions of the sofa. They can store some little things for sleep or other household needs. And the price range is quite wide - from fairly cheap models for a few thousand to large size cost sofas. The final price, as a rule, depends on the materials from which the sofa is made, its size and the availability of additional devices.

Benefits

As the name implies, a box for clothes is the most important characteristic of this type of sofa. Its presence allows you to not worry about where to put bed linen, which is used at the moment. It is not necessary to free a separate shelf for it in the closet, where space, as a rule, is sorely lacking. This question becomes especially acute if the apartment is small and several people live in it.

Another advantage of a modern sofa with a linen box, which few people think about - on its walls you can say a lot about the whole sofa. The insides of an ordinary sofa are extremely difficult to check in a store before buying, its fabric or leather case covers almost all or absolutely the entire surface of a wooden case. This design does not allow to verify the veracity of the characteristics specified by the manufacturer and the store.

The situation is different with the box. As a rule, looking into it, you can check out which tree the sofa body is made of, how secure the mounts are, and whether the tree is well sanded. The latter characteristic is much more importantwhat may seem at first glance - poor-quality or burr-like surface will inevitably spoil both the upholstery of the sofa and the bedclothes that you will put in the drawer.

Sometimes the laundry box is also covered with a cloth, but this is a good excuse to be wary - thus often trying to hide serious defects. Carefully check the sofa before buying, so as not to get the cat in the bag, because this piece of furniture should serve for years and give comfort.

disadvantages

Not only models with a spring mechanism require care, but absolutely any sofa. The upholstery gets dirty with time, is wiped and torn, therefore it should also be monitored. Depending on the design of the sofa, it may turn out that it is not so easy to change the trim upholstery. Therefore, if you plan to use the sofa for many years, it is worth before making a purchase decision to make sure of this possibility. Be sure to consult with the seller on this matter - he can tell you how best to change the upholstery and whether it can be done at all.

But all these are problems that can arise only in a few years, when, as a more significant shortcoming, it makes itself felt almost immediately.Due to its folding design, the sofa can give unevenness and differences in surface level at the joints between different parts. Most often this occurs on the border of the lowered back and seat. It is also worth paying attention to this - the better the sofa is made, the better the height of its parts is fitted.

In the case of cheap models, the drop is often so strong that it badly affects the quality of sleep. Especially the problem is relevant if the joint goes across the bed. Then, during sleep, the spine will be positioned in the wrong way, which is fraught with impaired health.
