Buying a Sectional Sofa With Storage

A sectional sofa with storage allows you to keep your living room tidy and neat while hosting overnight guests. This sectional sleeper futon features track arms, cream-toned upholstery and complements modern farmhouse or contemporary style.

It has a queen-sized innerspring bed and is available in a range of options for customization, including color and fabric. Look for pet- and kid-friendly performance fabrics that will fit your family's busy schedule.

Size

Some sectionals come in two big pieces, but others are modular and can be reconfigured. If you require a huge sectional, but you have to squeeze it through narrow doors or hallways, or you need to take it to the stairs and elevators of your building (if applicable) you can pick from these modular options. They are shipped in a variety of boxes that you assemble on site.

These convertible sectionals are ideal to accommodate guests, teens who want to stay over or a small sleeper sofa child. Keep sheets and blankets neatly hidden in the chaise storage sections, and take out a twin-sized or full-sized mattress at a moment's notice to host overnight guests. Pick from a range of styles, fabrics and sleeper futon customizable features to find the perfect one for you.

Style

Think about a twin sleeper sofa sectional if you like the design of a sectional couch but don't have a huge house or just have occasional overnight guests. It's compact enough to fit in almost any space, and the mattress size is slightly larger than the twin bed. This makes it a comfy place for guests to lay down. Some sectionals also have a storage chaise that keeps pillows and bedding available for overnight guests. Other options include a U shape modular sectional that reconfigures to a full-sized bed and is shipped in seven boxes that you can assemble on site. This can make it easier to navigate entrances, narrow hallways and narrow corners.

Many sectionals that convert are more comfortable than traditional sofas. This is great when you want to offer your guests a peaceful night's sleep. Some sectionals offer different cushion firmnesses so you can pick the level of comfort that you prefer.

Comfort

When shopping for a sleeper sofa sectional, be sure the mattress is comfortable for your guests. If you're able select a sofa with a traditional pull-out mattress instead of futon-style mechanisms. Also, keep in mind that sectionals with converters tend to be more firm than other sofas (though we've included a few of them on this list), as they're made to accommodate sleeping guests.

This stylish sectional is influenced by the mid-century design. It comes with an adjustable lounge, built-in storage, and a pull-out bed to accommodate unexpected guests. Keep blankets and bedding easily accessible in the large chaise lounge storage section and place the queen-sized mattress away when not in use. West Elm has it for $4,478plus.

Storage

Choose a sectional sleeper that is spacious in storage space. This makes it easy to store pillows, blankets, sheets and blankets for guests. Some sleeper sectionals feature an extra chaise lounge with storage built-in as well as a large storage table or ottoman that can be used as a footrest. The Habitrio sectional, for example has a sofa that comes with a queen-sized pull-out bed and two ottomans that can be moved around to suit your space.

You can also find queen-sized sofa beds. Select the size of your sectional couch depending on the purpose for which it's intended. If you plan to host couples frequently, a queen-sized sectional is ideal. If you plan to use the couch mostly as a seating space and occasionally entertain family or friends, then a full-size sofa sleeper is sufficient.

Another important consideration when shopping for a sectional that has a sleeper is style. You can find sleeper sectionals that are more modern or casual. If you are looking for an uncluttered, minimalist design take a look at a contemporary sectional with a simple silhouette and Sleeper Futon neutral colors. If you prefer a relaxed, cozy style, go for a sectional that has loose edges and soft cushions.

If you're on a budget, a less expensive sleeper sectional such as the Lilola Home Lucca provides plenty of seating for guests and comes with a storage chaise that keeps bedding on hand. Its durable linen blend upholstery is comfortable and appears high-end for the price point. It's also easy to clean and repels spills and stains which is a key feature of sleeper sofas with storage for families that are active.
