IKEA Introduces Secret Enhancement to Its Popular Sofa Bed for Enhanced Comfort
In the world of modern furniture, versatility and affordability are key. One such product that ticks both boxes is the FRIHETEN sofa bed from IKEA. This innovative piece of design has been a favourite among homeowners, particularly the author, who has owned and valued it in multiple apartments.
The FRIHETEN sofa bed is a cost-effective solution that adds extra sleeping capability in spaces like playrooms, snugs, teenager's bedrooms, or living rooms for occasional guests. Its generous size, hidden storage, and good value have made it one of IKEA's best-sellers.
However, it's important to note that the FRIHETEN sofa bed may not be suitable for small living rooms or guest bedrooms due to its larger size. For those with more space constraints, the company's boxy side table offers hidden storage, which is ideal for stowing away a sofa bed topper.
Speaking of sofa bed toppers, the Panda London mattress topper is a great option. Despite its soft and squishy nature, it folds away to a compact size, making it easier to store compared to down alternatives. For an uncomfy sofa bed, a super soft down topper from Panda London can increase comfort significantly.
The new version of the FRIHETEN sofa bed, FRIHETEN / KLAGSHAMN, features an extra cushion on the chaise, making it even more comfortable. This new design, developed by IKEA, also includes an added lumbar cushion, providing additional support.
The FRIHETEN / KLAGSHAMN sofa bed is larger and may not be suitable for small spaces. But for those looking for an affordable and simple sofa bed for a spare bedroom, the author recommends it. In fact, the author suggests pairing it with the Snug ottoman, which provides a hiding place for a sofa bed topper and is not too large to consume guest room space.
For those interested in interior design news and trends, the author suggests subscribing to a specific newsletter service. They also recommend using a single 'portable' mattress topper for added comfort on a sofa bed, along with good storage furniture like the boxy side table or the ottoman from Snug.
In conclusion, the FRIHETEN sofa bed from IKEA is a practical solution for additional sleeping space in specific settings. While it may not be the most comfortable for regular use, its cost-effectiveness, innovative design, and hidden storage make it a worthwhile investment for many homeowners.
