Promising review: "This sleeper sofa is so comfortable and the velvet is super soft. It has a pretty deep seat. I can comfortably sit cross legged on it. Comfortably sits two, but could squeeze three if they don’t mind sitting on the crack. The blue is even more vibrant in person. Setup was as simple as screwing on legs and lifting up the back rest. Feels sturdy and well made. The sleeper part of the couch is comfortable too. It’s also really easy to open up and close. 100% recommend this couch, if you are looking for something practical, compact and comfortable. Not to mention cute." —Mattiev90

Promising review: "Well built and easy to assemble. Love the shade of blue and the texture of the fabric. Seat cushions a bit firm but quite comfortable for a sleeper sofa. Bed very easy to open with independently mounted wood rails (on springs) under mattress that provide good support. Very happy with this purchase for our small apartment." —Anonymous

Promising review: "This is a gorgeous couch! It truly is more than I expected. The fabric is velvety soft and it is very sturdy feeling. The conversion to a bed is simple. I love it!" —Mary

Get it from Wayfair for $1,459.99 (originally $2,357).

Promising review: "Perfect for my rough and tumble family! The material is durable yet beautiful; the color is perfect — light enough for a darker room but not too light so dirty fingerprints will show. As it is new, the cushions are stiff but I know they will break in beautifully. The size is not intimidating or overpowering as some sleepers are. I needed a place for the unexpected guest that still looked and felt like a true sofa. I am so thrilled with this piece!" —Bridget

Get it from Wayfair for $1,059.99+ (originally $1,225+; available in two colors, two mattress types, and two sizes).

Promising review: "This sofa is absolutely stunning. We ordered this in the Evergreen Velvet — it's true to color and the fabric is buttery soft. It rivals our previous West Elm sectional, and is by far more comfortable. I wish I would have spent a bit more for the memory foam. The innerspring mattress isn't terribly uncomfortable, but I think we'll need a mattress topper for our guests. We did a ton of research for pullout-sleeper sofas and none compare to the price, size, and quality. I'm so happy we found this one. It's exactly what we've been searching for!" —Teresa L.

Get it from Apt 2B for $3,868+ (available in 58 styles, three leg finishes, and innerspring or memory foam mattress options).

Promising review: "We were looking to update a spare bedroom with a pull out that had a comfortable mattress, and this fits the bill perfectly. Mattress does not squeak and is pretty good. Couch looks beautiful. Its a bit harder, but perfect for the space!" —Heather S.

Get it from Joybird for $2,519 (originally $3,598;

Promising review: "We ordered Sunbrella Canvas in the color Canvas! It’s beautiful and not quite white. The fabric is machine-washable and is perfect for a home with dogs and grandchildren. The bed is comfortable. We will be adding a mattress protector that is padded to make it more plush, although it’s not necessary. The sofa is medium-firm and much more plush than any other sofa bed I’ve ever sat on. The pillows provided are feather and I used on a corner seating area to bring everything together." —Gayla

Get it from Wayfair for $2,129.99 (available in 56 styles).

Promising review: "Perfect for small or medium space. Not too big or deep. Love that the chaise can be on either side of the couch. Extra storage is great too. Pull-out bed is easy to pull out and comfortable to sleep on." —Fel21

Get it from Crate & Barrel for $2,399 (available in many fabrics and colors).

The plush cushions are reversible, and West Elm says they're a 3 on a scale of 1–5 in terms of firmness.

Promising reviews: "So happy. I live in a railroad apartment in Hoboken and this makes for the perfect guest sleeping space and instead of a recliner you can just open it and lounge around. For such a narrow space this fits the bill perfectly!" —Jo D.

"Exactly what I was looking for. Stylish and comfortable. Easy to fold out into a nice sized bed. Friends slept over and shared that it was quite comfortable." —Nadia S.

Get it from Article for $1,499 (available in three colors and also as a sectional).

Promising review: "My old couch wasn't very comfortable, no back support. This one is great, I'd recommend it for sure. I'm incredibly stubborn, so I tried in vain to assemble it by myself. I got a lot done, but needed help getting the second arm to attach (we had to push everything together, one of us on each side). In the eight days I've had this couch, it has been slept on more than once, super comfy. It is very sturdy and has great back support. The brick color is gorgeous, the fabric is great quality. I love that I got to customize and get exactly what I wanted. This is the nicest couch I've owned." —Jennifer A.

Get it from Burrow for $1,898 (available in five fabric colors, six leg finishes, three arm styles, tufted or non-tufted back pillows, and with other optional upgrades). Just be sure the Sleep Kit under "upgrades" is checked!

Promising review: "Goldilocks, this one is just right! Just what we needed as a spare sleeping space in a home office. Looks nice and is comfy for sitting and for sleeping. Very smooth adjusting from seating to flat space. Fabric is soft and seems quite durable." —Kimberly G.

Get it from Raymour & Flanigan for $623.96 (originally $779.95; available in two colors).

Promising review: "I love this couch so much. It folds in half so moving will be so much easier, plus the armrests have their own storage space within the couch! The back can be upright, in a lounge position, or laying all the way down. It’s super easy to change the positions, just remember to pull out the fold-in legs for the laying down position and you’ll need to pull it away from the wall and push it back to adjust each position. The couch is super soft so it’s nice for those with sensory needs. It’s firm but it’s memory foam so it’s also soft and comfy. The size is perfect for me. I went from a huge sectional to this and I’m completely satisfied. Fits three people comfortably. I kept my ottoman so that helps with lounging. My daughter got pizza sauce on it yesterday and it cleaned right up with water. Overall, this couch is awesome and I would recommend it!" —Chelsez

Get it from Target for $579.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "Excellent sofa for this price. Suitable for sitting and sleeping. Has three different modes." —John

Get it from Walmart for $239.99+ (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I bought this sofa for my guest room. It has soft and high-quality fabric. For me, the best features of sleeper sofas are being space-saving even in the sleeper mode and easy to convert. I like the overall quality. It is comfortable although I added a memory foam mattress topper and it makes it a perfect queen bed for my guests." —Namnam

Get it from CB2 for $1,499 (originally $1,899).

Promising reviews: "Easy to put together. Not cheap looking at all. Very sturdy and tons of storage. It will take some time to break in but that’s like most furniture. I love that you can move and arrange the pieces into whatever works best for your space or into a good size bed for guests. I also had to move this into my basement by myself (40+ year old petite woman) so I like that each seat came in a separate box that fit through the doors and stairways easily." —Toni Wedge

"We chose this sectional because it fit in the space, had storage underneath and could be used as a sleeper couch. I didn't realize how incredibly versatile this sectional was. Short of maybe a triangle, you can very easily move these into any shape you need. It's wild how easy the pieces are to both separate and combine. We have it in an L-shape now, but have made it into a full size bed, a U-shape and have made it into a long couch and a loveseat. Good fabric, nice construction — just an all around perfect choice for what we needed and wanted. LOVE it!" —Karie Hoskins

Get it from Amazon for $1,129.99 (available in three fabric options, two U-shape configurations, and two other styles).

Promising review: "This product is HEAVY! However, it’s also GORGEOUS! I got the green and it goes flawlessly with my mid-century modern theme. The storage underneath makes it great for smaller apartments and the ease of laying it down into a bed is also perfect. Added bonus: If the sofa is up against the wall then you can recline it, if the upright position is too erect." –Anonymous

Get it from Wayfair for $765.70 (originally $929.99; available in seven colors).
