Redefining the sofabed

Sofabeds are wonderful space-savers, but this is ridiculous. The Doc sofa bed has a mechanism that transforms the sofa into a bunk bed complete with a hideaway ladder and safety rail. It’s available from BonBon Trading.

    That’s incredible. I wonder how sturdy it is in bed-mode.

    Oh that’s cool. I would be a bit worried about safety, but that’s cool.

    This is perfect for when your husband says, “oh, by the way, you know that band I’m going to see on Friday night? I told them they could crash here after the gig.”

    You have no idea how many nights I’ve had to climb over people on my way to the bathroom in the morning :)

    That’s…ridiculous, as you have stated. I love it!

    Wonderful staff.
    The only thing is to make a sofa back every morning. But for some guests in the house… it would be a nice solution

    Their website is pretty cool. I wonder if there is an equivalent available in the US…. I could certainly use some of those space-savers in my place.

    So it turns into twin-sized bunk beds? Can’t people just share a full/queen?

    Wow. I don’t need it. But I feel draw to posses it never the less.

    Does it transform by itself? Because if it does, I’M BUYING IT.

    Design & Comfort in NY sells these (and other nifty European convertables).

    Disconnect, it transforms AND protects you from the Decepticons, who are masquerading as sideboards.
