Want a sofa sleeper that also provides a spot where you can conveniently hide blankets, pillows and sheets? A daybed couch with storage drawers gives overnight guests a comfortable bed, plus hidden storage underneath.
This Daybed Couch Makes Efficient Use of Space:
Therefore, you don’t have to give up valuable space in a cabinet or closet. Not to mention, keep bedding down the hall in another room. (If you live in a small apartment or home, you already know that storage space is a high-value commodity.)
In addition to providing lots of function for a single piece of furniture, the Theo Urban daybed fits well in smaller spaces. Essentially, it makes efficient use of space. =)
For one, the square sofa shape allows it to easily fit in corners without looking awkward. As a result, you have more versatility as to how you arrange your furniture.
And second, the narrow armrests and sofa back take up less area. Therefore, the couch requires minimal floor space while still providing a comfortable full-length bed.
Modern Daybed Design Fits into Today’s Living Room:
Many people find this daybed attractive because of its square, contemporary design. Plus, you can dress it up with trendy cushions and a grey bedspread to give it that sofa-like feel.
In other words, don’t be afraid to incorporate this daybed into your living room. The minimal design of this sofa allow it to easily fit in modern, shabby chic, industrial or eclectic home decor.
Note: Position the sleeper against a wall or use this daybed as a functional room divider. The finished flat back has a clean, minimal look.
Plus, you can easily place a long sofa table along the back for additional storage, display and table space. (Table height measures 3″ shorter than the back for the sofa and about 15″ shorter in width.)
What Mattress Should You Get for Your Daybed?
Medium-firm mattresses work well on sofa beds because they are multi-purpose in their design. First, they offer supportive cushioning during the day that keeps its firmness over time.
On the other hand, the top layer of memory foam creates a plush and comfortable platform for sleeping. In other words, this hybrid-style mattress offers the best of both worlds. Plus, you can get it in 8″, 10″ and 12″ heights.
Like many daybeds, the Urban Daybed features a slatted base to support the mattress and also provide ventilation. Consequently, you won’t need to spend money on a boxspring, and your mattress gets adequate air circulation.
Grey Bedding Sets to Create a Cozy, Sofa-Like Look:
Since this daybed fits a standard-sized twin mattress, you can use regular twin sheets and bedding.
If you want a grey comforter and pillows to create a uniform look on your grey daybed, this bedding set includes a quilt and matching shams.
In addition, you can make the seating area more cozy and inviting with furry cushions.
Not to mention, these soft fur sham covers add style and texture to your sofa.
On the other hand, if you already have a comforter, this duvet cover and sham set features tufted stitching. And you can get extra shams here.
The solid, neutral color of these bedspreads creates an upscale look for a daybed sofa. Furthermore, the mid-tone grey works well at hiding dirt or scuffs better than light or dark materials.
At the same time, the contemporary stitching in these fabrics adds more interest and style to an otherwise boring piece of furniture.

…or a Traditional Wooden Daybed with Storage:
If you want storage drawers but prefer a more traditional style daybed, check out the South Shore Daybed. The entire sofa is constructed of wood, as opposed to cushioned upholstery.
This couch has almost the same dimensions as the Theo Urban daybed above. However, the back is about 4″ taller, and the armrests are shorter. You also get 3 medium-sized drawers instead of 2 larger ones.
Note: The hard back and sides may not appear very comfortable. However, with enough pillows and cushions, you can totally turn this daybed into a cozy reading nook.
You can use the same size twin mattress as shown above, and you don’t need to spend extra money on a box spring. However, this bed does not have a ventilating slat support system to increase air flow.
By the way, if you like the nautical look of the striped bedspread above, you can get a similar style Nautica quilt here.
