How to Convert a Pull Out Couch
Pull-out couches, also known as sofa beds or sleeper sofas, are handy to have in small spaces or in homes where all the bedrooms are occupied. With the pull of a handle, you have an instant guest room.
Pull-out couches are also mainstays at hotels and condominiums, saving vacationers the expense of renting larger or multiple accommodations. Most sleeper sofas, when converted, are the size of a double bed.
Tip
Pull-out couches come with built-in mattresses, which vary in comfort level. If you're buying a sleeper sofa, try out the mattress in the store and decide whether you want to change it for one more suited to your needs; it could mean paying extra.
Remove all of the couch cushions and pillows; the bed frame is beneath the seat cushions.
Look for a handle or grip on the bed frame.
Pull the bed frame up until you can bring it toward you as the frame starts to unfold.
Drag the frame gently down to the floor; it will be two-thirds unfolded and resting on one set of legs.
Unfold the last third of the mattress, which will have its own set of legs to stand on.
