We suggest you look at a few more photos of similar folding sofas.

• Some kitchen sofas have a different transformation mechanism - a clamshell. They are most often straight, rather compact, and unfold forward.

Sofa wardrobe

No matter how compact the kitchen sleeping sofas are, they cannot be placed on five or six square meters, with all the desire. Here it would be better to arrange everything so that at least all the dishes, appliances, furniture and products are at hand, and not in another room, closet or corridor.

Oddly enough, they help to solve this problem soft kitchen corners with drawers or folding seats, under which all sorts of necessities are placed: small equipment, bulk products, spare dishes, etc.

Manufacturers of kitchen furniture did not ignore the owners of such apartments, delighting them with special bay window models of sofas for the kitchen. They can have a different angle of rotation from 90 to 360 degrees.

Council. If you want to place the sofa not against the wall, but in the center of the room, choose models with full upholstery.

What to consider when choosing

To learn more about the types and features of kitchen sofas, the video in this article and other site materials will help you. And then we will tell you about what to look for when choosing them.

Pre-planning

When creating a design project for your kitchen, include not only a kitchen set, but also think about where it will be stand the sofa, how much space remains for it, what shape it should be (straight, angular, bay window, U-shaped).

At the same time, study the proposals from the manufacturer, find out if he can make furniture according to your sizes or you will have to choose from ready-made models. In accordance with this and make up your project.

Council. If you have a small kitchen or a custom layout, try to find an opportunity to make a custom sofa.
This will allow you to equip the room with maximum convenience for you.

Style and color

It is hardly worth saying that it is advisable to select the appearance and style of the sofa in accordance with the design of the kitchen. Now this is more than possible, since there are models made of solid wood, painted MDF or with an all-metal frame. And the range of upholstery materials pleases.

As for the color, it should match the color scheme of the room, but not necessarily repeat it exactly. My only advice: thaw out your preference for darker colors. Even if the upholstery material lends itself well to cleaning with your own hands, light-colored seats will very soon show greasy and frayed spots and dust in the folds.

Council. Light-colored upholstery is easier to keep clean if it is in the form of removable, washable covers.

Upholstery and filler

A detailed instruction on the choice of materials for the manufacture of kitchen corners is given in other materials on our website. Here we will simply list which ones are the most practical.

The upholstery fabric should be well cleaned, easy to maintain and maintain its original appearance for a long time.

These parameters correspond to:

• Genuine Leather;
• Eco leather;
• Chenille;
• Flock.

Important!
Upholstery fabrics are divided into categories in terms of quality and cost: the higher the category, the higher the final price of furniture of the same model will be.

The filler for the kitchen sofa should be dense enough so that the person sitting at the table does not sink into the pillows, but can maintain the correct fit. In addition, he must keep his shape, not miss. Therefore, it is best to choose furniture not with foam rubber, but with polyurethane foam (PPU). Latex and holofiber can be a good alternative.

Conclusion

Small corner or straight sofas fit perfectly into the interior of any kitchen, making it more comfortable and practical. They can be bought ready-made, ordered according to your size and even made with your own hands. Although you are unlikely to have to use the latter option: the modern furniture industry is able to satisfy any request.
