The sofa bed or sofa?

I always thought I would get a sofa bed when I got a house. It is the practical choice as I surely will get visitors now and then. When I am sofa shopping, I asked myself these questions :-
  1. How many visitors will I get at anytime?
  2. Do I have a spare bedroom for them?
  3. Does my living room have space for it?
The answer is at most maybe 3 visitors at a go? I think the biggest crowd I will ever get is when the whole family descend on me. When that happens, there is still my own room on top of the spare room. Of course I would put my guests there first. Hence the sofa bed which cost definitely almost twice a normal sofa might not have as much usage as I expect. Not to mention living room is just not that big.


Hence all arguments point to a normal sofa and a 2 seater due to size of living room. The Klippan is particularly attractive in terms of price, size and the removable seat cover. Bits and I tried it a couple of times and it works well for us. I also like this design and it will go well with my theme of yellow, green and grey design. Not to mention just $299.00.

What I have in mind is several moving pieces of furniture in my house that I can arrange depending on the size of crowd that I am entertaining. I can tell this is going to work with my concept. SO EXCITED!
