What is the difference between an L shape sofa and an L shape sofa cum bed?

An L shape sofa is built only for sitting. An L shape sofa cum bed opens into a bed for guests or daily sleep.

Which is more comfortable for sitting?

A sofa built only for sitting often feels more like a classic sofa. A good sofa cum bed is also comfortable, but its design must allow it to open.

What sizes are your L shape sofas?

Our L shape sofa pages list 7x6 ft and 8x6 ft, with 40 density foam and a 24 inch seat depth.

What sizes are your sectional sofa cum beds?

Our sectional sofa cum bed pages list 7.5x6 ft and 8x6 ft options.

Do your L shape sofas open into a bed?

Our L shape sofa specifications do not list a bed mechanism. If you need a bed, choose from our sofa cum bed collection, or ask us on WhatsApp about a specific design.
