The best sofa beds with chaise storage combine a sturdy lift up chaise with plenty of space inside, a reliable pull out bed with a proper mattress, and a layout that suits your room. Look for a chaise lid supported by gas struts or a secure stay, a storage compartment deep enough for a duvet and pillows, and a reversible or correctly oriented chaise so the sofa fits your space without blocking doors or windows.<\/p>\n
You will find a range of chaise designs within our collection of sofa beds UK sale<\/a>. The rest of this guide explains how to judge them and which features make the biggest difference in daily life.<\/p>\n Hosting guests usually involves a hunt for bedding. In homes without a spare room or a generous airing cupboard, duvets and pillows end up in lofts, under beds or squeezed into wardrobes. A storage chaise keeps everything right where it is needed, so turning the sofa into a bed takes minutes rather than a trip around the house.<\/p>\n Day to day, the chaise also offers a place to put your feet up, and the storage compartment can hold throws, board games, spare cushions or children’s toys. That flexibility suits the multi use living rooms common in UK flats and terraced houses.<\/p>\n If you are still settling on the overall shape of your seating, our modern sofas UK sale<\/a> collection shows how chaise layouts compare with standard two and three seaters.<\/p>\n The most common format has a chaise on one end forming an L shape. The main seat section typically houses a pull out bed, while the chaise lifts up to reveal storage. These designs give the most seating and the largest storage space.<\/p>\n Some designs allow the chaise to be swapped from left to right. This is valuable if you move home often or are unsure about future room layouts. The chaise is usually a separate unit that clips or slots into place.<\/p>\n More compact designs combine a click clack backrest with a short storage chaise. The back folds flat to create the bed, and the chaise extends the sleeping surface or serves as storage. These suit smaller rooms and studio flats.<\/p>\n If you like the idea of a chaise but need a separate, smaller piece, our range of modern chaise lounge chairs UK<\/a> offers standalone options for reading corners and bedrooms.<\/p>\n Not all chaise storage is equal. These are the details that matter:<\/p>\n A chaise sofa bed is only as good as its sleeping surface. Check the mattress type and depth, and whether the bed opens from the main seat section. A memory foam or sprung mattress on a sturdy metal frame gives the most comfortable night.<\/p>\n Consider how the chaise and bed work together when open. On some designs, the chaise stays in place beside the bed and acts as a bedside surface for a glass of water or a book. On others, the bed extends alongside the chaise to create a larger sleeping area.<\/p>\n Chaise sofa beds are larger than standard sofas, so measuring carefully is essential. Measure both walls of the corner, the distance into the room and the space needed in front for the bed to open. Allow room to walk around the open bed and to lift the chaise lid fully.<\/p>\n Orientation is described as left hand facing or right hand facing, usually viewed from the front as you look at the sofa. Different retailers use different conventions, so always check the product description or diagram carefully. Choose the side that keeps doorways, radiators and windows clear.<\/p>\n Marking the open footprint on the floor with masking tape is a simple way to check the layout. It shows instantly whether the bed, the lifted chaise lid and a walkway can all coexist in the room.<\/p>\n Chaise sofa beds are among the larger pieces of furniture most households buy, so access deserves as much attention as the room itself. Most corner designs arrive in two or more sections that join together in the room, but each section can still be bulky, and the section housing the pull out mechanism is usually the heaviest.<\/p>\n Measure the width and height of the front door, every internal door on the route and the narrowest point of any hallway. In flats, check the lift dimensions and the turning space on landings. In older houses, steep, narrow stairs with a tight turn are the most common obstacle. Measure diagonally across door frames as well, since sections are often carried in at an angle.<\/p>\n If access is tight, a chaise sofa bed with a reversible, separately boxed chaise is often easier to bring in than a fixed corner unit.<\/p>\n A storage chaise is most useful when it holds things you need in the living room itself. A full set of guest bedding is the obvious choice: a duvet, two pillows, a fitted sheet and covers. Folding it neatly, or using a slim storage bag, makes the most of the space and keeps everything clean.<\/p>\n Many households also use the chaise for seasonal throws and spare cushions, which keeps the sofa looking tidy, or for board games and children’s toys that would otherwise clutter shelves. Avoid storing heavy items such as books in bulk, which can strain the lid support, and keep anything sensitive to damp, such as paper or electronics, elsewhere.<\/p>\n A chaise sofa bed often becomes the main family sofa, so durability is key. Woven fabrics in mid tones hide everyday wear well, and many include stain resistant finishes. Faux leather is easy to wipe clean, which helps in homes with young children. Cord and velvet add warmth and texture for a more relaxed look.<\/p>\n Choose a colour that sits comfortably with your flooring and walls. Grey and stone remain versatile, while deeper greens, blues and warm caramel tones add character without being difficult to live with.<\/p>\n A large chaise sofa bed needs a balanced layout. Place it so the chaise does not cut across the main route through the room. A rectangular rug that sits partly under the sofa helps anchor the seating area.<\/p>\n If the chaise holds bedding, other storage can be kept lighter. A slim console or sideboard can handle everyday clutter, and our selection of modern storage furniture UK<\/a> includes compact pieces that complement a large sofa without crowding the room.<\/p>\n The coffee table will need to move when the bed opens, so a lighter design or one on castors is helpful. Our article on styling sofa beds with coffee tables in UK living rooms<\/a> covers sizes and shapes that work well with chaise layouts, and our guide to sofa bed open dimensions for UK rooms<\/a> explains how to plan the full open footprint.<\/p>\n Designs that tick all six boxes tend to stay comfortable and practical for many years.<\/p>\n Lift the chaise lid using the designated handle or edge rather than the cushion, which can strain the seams. Avoid overfilling the storage, as heavy loads can put pressure on the lid mechanism. Air stored bedding regularly, especially in winter, to keep it fresh.<\/p>\n Vacuum the upholstery weekly, plump cushions to keep their shape and open the bed occasionally even when not in use to keep the mechanism moving smoothly.<\/p>\n If you need generous seating, host guests regularly and are short on storage, a chaise sofa bed is one of the most practical pieces of furniture you can choose. If your room is very small, a compact click clack with a short storage chaise may be a better fit. Whatever you decide, you can explore our full range of seating and storage at Furniture in Fashion<\/a>.<\/p>\n Many can, but sizes vary. Check the internal dimensions or product details to confirm whether a folded duvet and pillows will fit.<\/p>\n Some designs have a reversible chaise that can be moved to either side. Others are fixed, so choose the correct orientation before ordering.<\/p>\n Many corner chaise designs include a pull out bed with a separate mattress. Compact click clack chaise designs use the seat and back as the sleeping surface.<\/p>\n Yes, as long as you avoid overloading it and lift the lid correctly. Regularly airing stored bedding helps keep it fresh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A sofa bed with chaise storage combines three useful things in one piece of furniture: generous everyday seating with room to stretch out, a pull out bed for guests and a hidden compartment for duvets, pillows and throws.
