I have been saying for a few months that I need a sofa bed for when friends and family come to stay rather than them having air beds on the floor. This was ok in theory but the biggest issue (aside from paying for it) was where were we going to put it.
Well the kids kept fighting at the dining room table at meal times, it was used as a dumping ground for anything and everything and caused more arguments than it was worth. So I did what all "normal" people do - saved up for a sofa bed, dismantled the table and put it in the shed and put the sofa bed in the dining room!
I didn't just want any old sofa bed, it had to be lather or faux leather so that it matches my main sofas. I did look at the one that was the same make and range as my sofas but it was dearer than the actual sofas cost so I didn't bother. But I did find a nice £495 one reduced on ebay to £114 so I got it.
It arrived today and after much trying we managed to get it built. It has opened up the dining room area no end, and will provide extra seating at parties etc. Plus the kids can use it with the folding card tables for meal times. AND it is open between the base and the floor, so we are going to get some under bed storage boxes and put lil mans train set there (well what he's not using of it anyway).
