A sofa bed, with storage? We’ve nailed it!

Sofa beds are the ultimate multi-taskers. A comfy seat for your tush by day, snooze spot by night — they’re the MVPs when it comes to furniture. But when you’re done sleeping, and they’re all packed away, what do you do with all the extra sheets, blankets and pillows? Sure, you could squeeze them back into the linen cupboard, but wouldn’t it be handy if your sofa bed had its own storage space? We love the way you think!

No home is complete without a trusty sofa bed

A sofa bed is perfect for overnight guests, as an extra seating option in the spare room or as a second couch for the living room. From the classic pull-out that effortlessly transforms into a sleep haven to the trendy futon that switches between sofa and bed mode in a flash, there’s one for every style and need. Wondering if a sofa bed is really worth it? We would have to say yes! But what about the storage dilemma, we hear you cry. Stick with us cos we’ve got exactly what you need.

Introducing Stunner: Koala’s sofa bed with built-in storage underneath

Why settle for ordinary when you can have extraordinary? That’s exactly what we thought when designing our Stunner Sofa Bed. At Koala, we know storage can be an issue, particularly if you’re dealing with a tight space, which is why we made sure that this sofa bed had plenty of it. Design Manager Adam Harrigan gives us an insight into the design process. “As we were growing as a company, our customers were young families, and we knew that storage was one of their biggest pain points, especially in the living room. You can never have enough storage at home, which is why we utilised every piece of space underneath this sofa.” The Stunner (as its name suggests) isn’t made to be hidden away. It’s here for your parents, to impress your guests in the living room or even to give you a spontaneous staycation right at home. It’s the multifunctional superstar you’ve been dreaming of. A 3-seater sofa bed with storage? Hello! It will take you from snooze to sleep in a mere four seconds and comes in a package that’s as economical as it is unique. It’s giving main character energy when it comes to sofa beds with storage. And if that’s not enough, here are more reasons why we love it.

Looking for something else?

Need a helping hand choosing the best sofa bed for you? While the Stunner certainly steals the spotlight, we thought we’d remind you of our other equally epic sofa beds. We know that traditionally, sofa beds aren’t exactly known for their comfort. That’s why we’ve done things a little differently with our whole sofa bed range. We refuse to battle with complicated mechanics and clunky contraptions and opted, instead, for instant comfort and style. Meet Koala Sofa Bed and Cushy Sofa Bed. Available in 1.5-, 2- and 3-seater options, these guys are both pretty special in their own ways. The Koala is our OG sofa bed, handy for those last-minute guests and perfectly compact for smaller spaces. Just like the Stunner, it takes you from sit to sleep in seconds with no stress or fuss. It features a contemporary design with five fabric colours. The Cushy comes with extra squishy movable cushions for added comfort for sleeping or sitting. Choose from five Aussie landscape-inspired colourways, or our two Luxe Edition boucle fabrics, which upgrade your Cushy to a Cushy Luxe! As the winner of the Product Review 2023 Award for the Best Sofa Bed, you can’t go wrong with this one. “Our first two sofa beds, Koala and Cushy, were on-the-ground sleepings, and with those it was all about the thickness of the mattress,” Adam says. “The Stunner, on the other hand, has a platform that comes out and raises you off the floor, a platform which also doubles as a large amount of storage.” Need even more storage? Simply pair any of these sofa beds with our Getaway Ottoman or Cushy Sofa Bed Ottoman, both of which come equipped with built-in storage compartments for all your bits and bobs.
