Sofa beds in this range convert into a bed in different ways, from futon and fold-down designs to models where the seat pulls out, and several include built-in storage. They suit studios, small living rooms and homes that host occasional guests. For general sofa browsing, see our Sofa & Sofa Bed collection.
Several models in this range include storage under the seat or chaise, useful for spare bedding
and linen in homes without a spare cupboard.
GOOD FIT
Studios and Small Living Rooms
Futon, fold-down and 1 or 2 seater designs suit studios and smaller rooms where a full-size spare
bed does not fit.
GOOD FIT
Occasional Overnight Guests
A 2 seater or 3 seater sofa bed works as everyday seating and becomes a spare bed when visitors
stay.
USE CAUTION
Just Need a Sofa
If you do not need the sleeping function, our
Sofa & Sofa Bed collection covers fixed sofas
alongside sofa beds in one place.

Sofa Bed FAQs
What's the difference between this collection and your Sofa & Sofa Bed collection?
This page is organised around function, such as pull-out mechanisms, storage capacity or futon-style folding, for buyers who already know what they need. Our Sofa & Sofa Bed collection covers the full range of sofas and sofa beds together for general browsing by budget or style.
Do your sofa beds include storage?
Some do. GILBERT, Rolin, Flyer, New Flyer and the EH2941 2 seater include storage under the seat or chaise. ADVENT, RAYMOND, Cloud Modular, New Advent SA160, ABELLA and SHEILA do not list storage on their product pages. Check the individual product page to confirm storage on the model you are considering.
What's the difference between a futon and a pull-out sofa bed?
A futon-style sofa bed folds flat using its backrest, generally a simpler mechanism with fewer moving parts. A pull-out sofa bed slides the seat section forward to reveal a mattress underneath, which usually gives a larger sleeping surface but takes a bit more floor space to extend.
Do you deliver sofa beds in Melbourne?
Yes, we deliver across Victoria. Our own team handles most orders within the Melbourne Metro area, and a third party courier is used for orders further out. For apartments with a lift, we deliver upstairs for free if lift access is booked in advance, and an extra fee applies when our driver has to carry furniture upstairs without a lift. You can also choose Local Pickup at checkout and collect from our showroom or warehouse. We email a confirmation when your order is ready, so please print it and bring it with you.
How do I look after the fabric, leather or timber on my sofa bed?
Fabric upholstery generally does best with regular vacuuming and prompt spot-cleaning using a mild, fabric-appropriate detergent, left to air dry rather than exposed to direct heat. PU leather and air leather can usually be wiped down with a soft, slightly damp cloth and kept away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which can dry out and crack the surface over time. Solid timber frames and legs benefit from an occasional dust with a dry or barely damp cloth, and are best kept away from prolonged direct sunlight and damp conditions to avoid warping.
Can I see a sofa bed in person before buying?
Yes. Our Clayton South showroom displays products across our living room, dining and bedroom ranges, and customers are welcome to view and check products there before purchase. If you want to see a specific model, contact us first to confirm it is on display.
